Blue Canoe Long Hoody : Luxury Lounging

I spend a lot more time lounging than I do practicing yoga or doing any other physical activity, for that matter. Still, I don't want to look like a slob; I don't just putter around the house in anything. Certainly not in my old ratty college sweats. At least not anymore.

Now I have luxurious lounge wear from Blue Canoe. My Long Hoody is made out of medium-weight organic cotton, which is, after all "the fabric of our lives." Certainly of my life. I love the long tunic length for full coverage and the rich color options. My hoody is a deep eggplant color, which goes well with my mostly black and brown wardrobe. Cocoa, Guava, Black, Apple, and Royal are the other colors.

I also like the cut on this cover-up top. It's slightly flared at the hips, but still has slightly tapered sleeves (Thanks, Blue Canoe, I can't stand billowy, flared sleeves--they get in the way of everything. The side pockets come in handy for keeping my lip balm close. Most of the time, though, I actually have my hands in them, with my hood up, while reclining on my futon watching movies on cable. Sometimes, it's the simple things that make life sweet.

Bottom Line: Blue Canoe's Long Hoody is like a revised sweatshirt top for adults. You can wear it as a cover up after yoga practice, then leave it on all day.-- E.D. (Mar 08)
