Yes, this is pricey, but cost per wear is going to very low because you’re going to use this all the time! Packable, folds easy, perfect for just about any occasion!This costs much, much, more than I have paid for a lightweight (disposable) blanket for air travel. I admired this and have had on my wishlist for month. Someone gave me $100, so I decided to spend it on this. I LOVE IT! I was surprised to learn that it is simply an oblong shawl. I will be able to use as a shawl or as a leg warmer. It is the SOFTEST, FINEST material I have ever felt! I LOVE IT!!Thanks to all those who sent me reviews whenI asked specific questions. they were spot on! ♦️❤️♦️Wrong item was sent first time. Have reordered it and hope it will be fine.I ordered this and sent it back because I thought I got the wrong item. As it turns out I received the correct item at the first delivery however I thought it was wrong because in the picture it appears to be longer in the back. There was actually no rear view of the model wearing the Wrap. I am keeping the item the quality is high it’s very soft I will use it but the photo of the model appeared to have a longer back in the picture.it is not lightweight.. its like a very heavy blanket. i was thankful. when the ship left it was only 50 degrees, wind was really cold.. but i was expecting a nice shawl to just cover a strapless dress. i was glad to have a blanket i could carry.I first purchased the charcoal grey color and I am a weekly road warrior so I use it every week on the plane. I wanted a light color to use during the summer for car rides with too much air conditioning or chilly restaurants. It is a bit pricey but worth it. It also launders beautifully!I have a lot of fabric allergies but none to this absolutely beautiful wrap with nice big pockets. I loved it till I wore it 15 minutes the day after Christmas and I was covered in fuzz balls and lint. I tried my best to get it off me but it clings to you and you look messy. Wish it had been different.I love this shawl! It is perfect for a chilly day when you need just a little extra cover. The pockets are so handy. And of course that yummy Barefoot Dreams fabric is amazing.This is without a doubt the softest, warmest wrap I’ve ever had. I was given one in another color for Christmas. I just had to have another one!
