Coolibar UPF 50+ Women's Sun Shawl - Sun Protective

Looks pretty draped over my arms back over a dress. Great fabric quite thick can be a bit hot on a sunny day. Big enough to use over your head like a hood or drapped over your back and arms

This scarf/shawl is really practical — sun protecting while it is soft and silky and NOT adding to your heat temperature. I was amazed and bought two. So sometimes draping clothing on you in the sun seems like a suffocating too hot idea but this scarf is the opposite and cools. You can wear it many ways to protect your head, face, shoulders, arms.. They travel well and don’t look bad even when you fold them up in a small square. So, yes, you can chuck it in your tote and drape it around yourself when you need it. It’s a hand wash item but they wash well with a little soap and rinse and I hang mine up to dry. This is really practical in all respects.

Love the feel, love the casual look, love the spf sun protection. I liked the black one I got better for color though.

This is a stunning shawl that folds up small and lightweight to carry in a large purse or backpack to have if you need to throw it around you for sun protection or against a chill in the air. I purchased a white shawl and it has a beautiful sheen to it, the fabric is strong and not cheap at all, and it's a large size to wrap around you without being too much fabric or worse, not enough. Love it and carry it with me everywhere I go these days.

Seems great; a bit thicker than anticipated, but willing to believe other reviewers who've used it in the heat and found it cooling. The only surprise is how long it is! I couldn't ever wear it as a scarf (doubled would be way too thick around neck; single layer comes nearly to my knees)! But excited to have flexible coverage for cool plane, hot sunny days. Can cover my whole upper torso and then some if I want to!
