"Daughter-in-law LOVES it."

My daughter-in-law went to Machu Picchu when she was very young and I thought she would like a gift from the Andes. Well, it turned out that she LOVES it. I also like it and am debating which color to buy.

"Truly perfect"

I don t use the word perfect very often, nor lightly. But it applies here! This poncho is the perfect shade of indigo, with a bit of heathering for interest. The knit is stretchy yet retains its shape. It is light weight yet warm and feels like a gentle hug. I have already worn it almost every day since it came, and I live in an area experiencing hot temperatures right now! But it is perfect for the air-conditioned areas. I will take it with me traveling, for sure. Could not be happier.!

"Sophisticated and Casual"

True indigo, deep blue and stunning. Love it! Comfortable, versatile, stylish, sophisticated and casual. I wear it to school over a turtle and black skirt and it looks professional. I wear it with jeans and a top and it s casual.

"My second one!"

This poncho is soft and beautiful as well as reasonably priced. I loved the cream colored one and found it useful, so I purchased the blue one.

"Just the right weight and softness."

This is a lovely, well-made poncho that provides just the right amount of layering for locations that fluctuate in temperatures. The lightweight construction does not bulk up under heavier outerwear.

"WOW"

This is my second alpaca poncho by Alfredo. They are well-made, gorgeous and drape beautifully. I am 52 and looks great on a short person but not too long. It is light-weight but very warm. I get compliments every time I wear it which is often. I even wear it around the house when chilled. Lovely garment.

"So pretty and comfy!"

Beautiful comfortable top with such pretty colors. I usually wear just a solid-colored long-sleeved shirt underneath, works for going out and for just lounging around the house. Just FYI the material is fairly stretchy so if you re between sizes (I m usually between M and L myself) I d say size down!

"This is perfect for Californias version of cold weather!"

I bought this beautiful cape (ruana) several months ago, and Ive worn it non-stop! its flattering, very warm, and so easy to wear without having to deal with sleeves. I love it, Ill wear it until its worn out, and Ill buy another one. My favorite article of outdoor clothing for cool weather. It works when Im dressed casually, and when I dress up. Perfect!
