Congratulations to Whitney G. from Gainesboro, TN, a new subscriber to the Wanderlust and Lipstick Newsletter, for winning this month’s prize!
*****
There’s a word that comes to my mind when I think about clothing from Royal Robbins. It’s “soft.” Well, more specifically, “snuggly soft.” I mentioned this when I wrote about their Mission Knit Long Sleeve Shirt and these are the words that come to mind to describe their Mystic Cardi.
This is the kind of sweater you want to curl up with on the couch in the dead of winter by the fireplace with a good book. True that it’s not going to be the easiest item to pack for a faraway retreat–one in which you’ll need to fly–but it is great for a getaway in which you’ll be driving, like a ski weekend (different fireplace, same book) or a cabin near a stormy coast.
This long button-down sweater is made of acrylic and wool (just 15%, so it’s not itchy) and has a hood for extra warmth.
The Mystic Cardi is available in Charcoal (pictured above), Oatmeal and Deep Blue (pictured below).
This month you could win your own–just in time for the cold weather and the holidays!
