"I really like this poncho, which is really what this is... you can't wear a coat over it with any ease, given the way the sleeves are simply seams sewn into the poncho. However, it is so clearly a quality piece that people take notice when you wear it.
I was a bit perplexed with the tie mechanism when I received it - still don't know if I am wearing it right! Basically, the sweater has two slits in the front (about where the sleeve-seams start) and through that comes this belt in the same knitted yarn as the sweater. So the belt doesn't go around the outside of the sweater, it stays inside the sweater and comes out through the holes in front. I was worried it would stretch the front out and make the thing look raggedy. So I have taken to holding the belt while I put the sweater on and taking it around my waist on the *inside* and then tying it outside the front. I have also substituted a silken belt in the exact shade of navy in the same way, to dress the sweater up a bit more. Worked really well.
I have to see if I will be able to wear it with ease during winter, since I will need to wear a coat on top - as I said, the sleeves don't really allow for that, so it will take more manipulation..."
beautiful look

"I love this sweater - it looks great and stylish. Just don't buy it a little too big - I made that mistake and the sleeves are a little too long on me, otherwise it is a great addition and it looks so cute! Fun to feel cute while huge!"
