Exactly what I was looking for!”

It's so versatile, warm and comfy. You can wear as much under it as you want and still have the carefree poncho look. And it has pockets!

My Forever coat”

Ive been looking for a classy black jacket for quite a few years. This hooded cape is meticulously made and fits the bill perfectly. Just got it and hoping against hope it wont pill over the years. Will leave another review if it does. Its elegant and looks a lot more expensive than it was.

Anything, anywhere, and perfect for evening dress-up occasions

Nice! Good quality and value.”

Soft. Not bulky or heavy. Warm understated elegant scarf in good length. Beautiful charcoal grey. Nice thing about this simple design is you can dress it up or down. I gave to friend who is a classic casual dresser for his chilly evening walks. He loved it and said the quality is so good hed be wearing it for years.

Nice scarf, but not soft.”

I bought this to wear under the collar of my coat. To my dismay, though, I discovered that it was very scratchy when I wrapped it around my neck. Your experience may vary: its possible that Im allergic, but I had to send it back.
