NEW ARRIVALS - ARMANI JEANS WRAP

Wrap - Armani Jeans - $295
This cute little sweater-wrap is an asymmetrical viscose knit, with a faux curly lamb finish, that will add texture to any winter outfit! When the weather is nice, it functions as your outerwear, but is lightweight enough to layer under heavier pieces. Trade out the Armani brooch for some sparkle, and wear it out at night with a cocktail dress - the possibilities are endless.
