Travelling Ruana

I got this and the Nordstrom brand one and the Nordstrom brand one is so much better. This is thick and very bulky- it looks like a blanket. No arm holes so it doesn’t feel like it will stay in place. I usually wear an 8 and this one size fits all was way to large for me.

I realize this is supposed to be oversized but it’s huge. It also sheds all over the rest of your clothes even after it has been laundered. Additionally, it does not launder well. It is full of piling after one time. I bought this after seeing an influencer rave about it and I don’t get why she thought it was so great. I keep getting burned by those people so I’m just about done believing anything any of them say!

The port is much more purple than I was expecting. While I like the drape and thickness, I could already see pilling and a few snags in the knit. Not sure if this was returned by someone else and then sent to me, but I returned it because I was concerned it would only look worse once I started wearing it.

I liked this but it was just too large for my frame at 5'1. It did arrived with several snags and if it looked nice on me I would have exchanged it, but I am just going to return. I think this would look great on a taller person!

I broke my wrist and can’t fit my arm into coats because of the cast. This wrap keeps me warm in the chilly Oct weather. I love it! And if it’s chilly inside, the wrap takes the edge off. Highly recommend.

I purchased the port color, which in-person was more purple than I anticipated. The fabric was just ok and the overall fit was not flattering for my smaller frame. It wasn’t cozy either. Not a keeper for me.
