"Love this Black Alpaca Wrap"

I love this generous black alpaca wrap. I trael about 40 weeks out of the year and this wrap is great for travel. It's helps keep me warm in cold airports, planes and air conditioned offices. It works with my more formal work wardrobe, doubles as a blanket or can be rolled into a pillow if required. I absolutely love this wrap and have purchased a new black one after 6 years.

"Versatile ruana"

The versatile Ruana is a perfect garment. It is an elegant design which can be worn casually or in a more formal environment. The fabric is easy to keep clean and does not attract particles of any type. I have several, have worn extensively and have dry cleaned many, many times and all still look brand new. I have also given these as gifts to close friends and we all feel the same way about them.

"The perfect wrap"

This ruana is so soft and comfortable to wear. Just enough warmth to keep me toasty and so beautiful. I always get compliments when I wear it!

"Stylish Portable Comfort!"

Just right for transition weather and for airplane travel. Roll it up for pillow or unroll it for warmth. Also for going out to dinner (after COVID leaves us!) - fold up over back of chair or sit on it!

"This was my second purchase from this seller."

This was a beautiful Ruana. My first was a lovely taupe and my most recent a vibrant red. All 3 items have been top quality and I have been delighted with each wrap/ruana. I am 59 so I love the length. If you are under 56 this may be too long unless this is what you are looking for.

"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!
