Those wrap things

[SmileAndNod]

Sorry I don't know what they're called, but I've seen them in a few places for the autumn. They're not ponchos. How do you wear them without looking like you've walked out of the house in a blanket?

Was wondering if they'd be handy for the school run or whether I would look like I've literally just got out of bed (given how bad I look anyway)

Buy one that doesn't look too much like a blanket!

I have a taupey-coloured knitted one (no tassels) which I wear loads in the Spring/Autumn. It is indeed very handy to just throw on, great to go shopping in, as you won't over-heat. I'm very tempted by some of the M&S offerings this year.

I bought a navy one from mango and have no clue how to wear it either

I'm looking for some sort of knitted cardigan / coatigan /wrap thing for autumn too so watching with interest.
