Wrap Star

When the weather turns chill and nippy, it is most certainly not enough for me to be bundled up in plush sweaters or down jackets. No, I am of the variety who wants to leave the house swathed within the confines of a knit blanket that hangs haphazardly over my shoulders, giving me the appearance of a homely child who has just dragged herself down to the breakfast table for a bowl of overly-watered oatmeal before heading off to school. Obviously not a look to embrace or be seen donning in the light of day; thus, the only way to achieve maximum warmth while still preserving my trademark style is by engaging the aid of The Soft and Sexy Sweater Wrap.

Don’t knock it before you’ve tried it, my pets. This is not one of those wraps that you can wear one way, and one way only. To be truthful, it is a multifaceted piece that adapts to its surroundings; that ostensibly knows exactly what look you are trying to create before you are completely sure yourself. It’s a wear-with-everything wonder destined for stardom in your wardrobe, with the ability to be styled in six very unique ways – all of which will make you look stunning with minimal exertion.

Over-The-Shoulder For the working girl wanting to look polished yet effortlessly gorgeous.

Tie-Front For the mademoiselle with the confidence to wear a wrap, and only a wrap, as she heads out of doors.

Open Cardigan For the harried lady with a mile long to-do list.

Belted Cardigan For the princess with a penchant for the finer things in life.

Cross-Front Tie-Back For the outdoorsy gal who spends foggy mornings barefoot on the beach.

One Shoulder For the city chic trendsetter with a desire to stay toasty even on scandalous girls night’s out.

Darlings no, it’s not merely the ambidextrous ways you can wear it; much of the beauty of The Soft & Sexy Sweater Wrap is the wide range of colors the luxuriously soft cashmere/cotton blend is at one’s disposal – brilliant blue, midnight heather, chocolate, vintage red, outrageous pink, bark heather, charcoal heather, blazing sun, sugar baby, winter white, black, heather gray, and sandstone heather.

With such a splendrous swatch of shades, it’s nearly impossible to refrain from scooping up the whole lot – if only to gaze upon them admiringly as they drape daintily from pink padded satin-lined hangers in your closet.

Are you ready to be a wrap star?


Fashionably yours!

im not a huge fan most of the sweater wraps, but i have to say the off the shoulder ones are MUY sexy

All Women Stalker said...

Those are beautiful. I can easily make my own but my sewing machine is too stubborn to sew over jersey.

S.Elisabeth said...

So adorable!! I'm going to have to check this out because I'm exactly like you! I'd rather be bundled up in the fuzziest flannel blanket in the winter months! (though i hate oatmeal-sadly!-so i'd be eating whatever i could muster through being cold (since being cold equates to laziness!)

first, the comment you left on my blog today totally made me laugh out loud. Please keep me posted on how Melrose place is, dahlin! I wanna hear all the details.
Second, these wraps are too cute, that first one is so feminine and flirty but still looks so warm and cozy! I love it!

The Anthology said...

So I'm kind of ready, but I'm also in denial that I'll have to start bundling up so soon. As much as I looooove fall clothes, I want to keep wearing my summer ones!

These wraps are super cute, though!

i love the first pic :)

la petite fashionista said...

i'm all for any cute alternative to a sweatshirt; these are fantastic!

Clarity said...

I so agree with you, I think blankets and being draped in a wool hug is lovely.

I think you should wear in the light of day. Start something knew.

I have a couple of similar wraps and they are almost as comfortable. By the way we should totally have the slumber party, great idea, now we just have to choose UK or The States lol. I think Paris is a good compromise.

Chelsea said...

Reminds me of the Cozy by DKNY, you can wear that piece 12 times by simple ties and using a bangle to loop it through.

oooooh over-the-shoulder. an edgy beauty. i had lots of fun reading this post. styling adds some great thrill to all women.

btw, thanx for the comment.
you know, actually it's not weird at all. california's weather has been so bad recently, changing every minute. most of my beachplans were a failure bc of the cold wind and everything, haha:] i only got lucky a few times.
so i think i'm ready for fall!!

Amelia said...

I love the color of the sweater in the first picture. Hmm, I've never tried anything other than just your standard cardigan. Could be fun to play around with.

Arushi Khosla said...
