My home away from home is San Jose del Cabo, a small town near the southernmost tip of the Baja Penisula. When I spend my holidays in San Jose I am surrounded by so much beauty - there is a calm serenity with the Sea of Cortez and the lush green of the marshlands and gorgeous mountains. In San Jose, I feel I am home - the colors, the town square, the art, the food and most importantly the people. Everywhere you go, always welcoming you with a smile, warm greetings and when I’m really fortunate some tequila from the special family bottles.

This light wrap was inspired from many of my days and nights in my home away from home. It has a nice drape with the merino and cashmere blend along with some fun texture to compliment any occasion.  Los Cabos fits just right around the shoulders for when the nights are cool or you choose to wear close to your neck as a long scarf.
