Here's the truth. We've been carrying the Ruana cashmere poncho/wrap for years now. Like a lot of years. When you are in retail, sometimes that can translate to "style overload". Where you just get sick of something because you've seen it so much. I think Amanda might say that. I definitely would say that. But here's the annoying thing, I STILL go to grab my Ruanas ALL the time--every year. So there you go. It's as useful in my wardrobe as it was 5 years ago when we first got it in. If anything, I've come to rely on it more because now I see the versatility tried and true.

Basically, what I'm saying is that as annoyed as I want to be with this style that has literally been in my retail vision non-stop for five years, I can't help but still love it, and each year I want another cool color. I have all the basic colors by now which always come in handy, but I will throw on boyfriend jeans, a white tank, and a Ruana in a pop color for fun. Throw on a tangle of necklaces and it could be a uniform for me. I wash these on delicate and let it dry on a rack. The cashmere stays soft and it's easy.

So there you go, Ruana, deconstructed for you. You can grab one now and get a complimentary tank or cami by Tees by Tina.  Who doesn't love free stuff?
