Icebreaker merino bliss wrap IS BLISS

I had a very expensive trip to Daiso this weekend as I stopped into the Icebreaker store on the way. I've owned a 'beanie' by them for years but living in San Francisco, never really got the 'full effect' & probably only wore it maybe 6 times...

I picked up the Bliss Wrap as I need a light but warm everyday wrap. Its only been 3 days (& my wallet is still smarting from the price) but OMG! It is amazing!

I've been struggling with outerwear with the warmer temps here in San Francisco. Days have been hotter and the evenings can still be foggy/wet depending on the neighborhood. I need one item that works in multiple conditions while looking polished (but can also go casual).  

It's light but kept me warm while waiting for a bus in typical SF weather (a drizzle foggy, windy night)! Plus it was comfortable during the warmer day in Berkeley. How is that even possible?!? (Apparently: wool)

The sleeves are long so I could pull them down over my hands or push them up/fold over - again a great win! (& they stayed warm! Possibly no need to carry gloves!!)

I was 'between' sizes - m or l? I went with the medium because I wanted a more fitted fit - however I won't be able to tie it behind me (while closed - opt. 3)

I love the options & the pockets!! Perfect for my iPhone on #sfmuni! 

I'll update my opinion after a few washes as my other wraps have 'pilled' at that point.
