An Ode To The Wrap: The Formal Sweatshirt We All Need

by Christie Grimm · April 17, 2020

    Face it, you regularly have to remind yourself when last you showered. And you've been wearing the same sweatshirt for weeks. Your house arrest (i.e. quarantine) dream of looking like you stepped out of a Nancy Meyers movie clearly needs some help. So I'm about to change your life. 

    In the world of loungewear, it's very easy to slip into the realm of slouchy. But the one switch up that will ultimately upgrade your couch ensemble, while still maintaining a gross amount of coziness, is a wrap.

    Casually flung about your shoulders, nothing looks chicer paired with leggings, pajama bottoms, or dare I say it, denim! 

    And the ultimate source for such an effortless find would have to be Alicia Adams Alpaca

    Her Alassio Wrap is your one way ticket back to self respect. A baby alpaca and silk blend, it's the softest thing you'll own. Not to mention it's made in Peru (exotic!) by little guys just like these. And really, isn't that reason enough to buy anything? 

    While the New Yorker in you may be naturally drawn towards the darker colors, I'm going to have to insist you heavily consider the tangerine or yellow or pink, each brilliant shades that would brighten up any day (slash month) of loafing about in front of the tv.
