UPDATE: I got the F21 wraps in the mail this week, and they are nice! I was pleasantly surprised! They have a nice weight to them, they are a good lentgh, and they do drape nicely. Thanks Fashion Princess for the heads up!

They have a tee material one in gray or black at target right now (doesn't quite have the ruffling effect in the front, but is cute for $20).

I just got one very similar at Forever21 in gray and black. They have a couple different ones right now, I went with the knit t-shirt material one, it drapes so nicely. I think it was $17ish.

H&M had a similar sweater and so did Gap Body (I didn't see it on the website), I'm not sure if there were similar enough but they might be worth a look.

I know! I heart.gif it!

Thank you everyone for helping me look! I think I found one by Velvet that's $97. Still a splurge for me, but it seems to be of better quality, and I'll wear it tons. So, I guess I'll get my money's worth out of it.

That Velvet one is cute but seriously I have some Velvet tees, etc and I think the Forever21 one feels of better quality and has a nicer drape to it, just thought I mention it since it was under $20, or if you wanna get a gray one too.

Thanks Fashion Princess for the info! Now that you mention it, I do have a velvet tee in my closet, and I wouldn't say I love it or anything.

I'm always weary of Forever21, but I think I'll try your suggestion! :)

Barefoot Dreams makes a wonderfully cozy one, and it comes in soo many colors!Brown, black, cream, grey, and light pink. YOu can find on the barefoot dreams website (www.barefootdreams.com, and www.whatshebuys.com, and zappos.com). I have it and absolutely LOVE it! It retails for around $100....

Thanks everyone! I went ahead and ordered these from Forever 21. Hopefully, they are nice in person.

I got one of these after the first post (the ones from F21) and I agree. They are a nice weight and very warm. I wore it flying over the weekend and it worked perfectly. I might go back and get some other colors since I like it so much.

Are they cotton? I am just curious because every cotton piece that I have ever purchased from F21 has pilled up into a nasty mess after wearing it less than 4 times.

They are 95% rayon, 5% spandex. Anything from a lower-end store like F21 I would wash either Hand wash cold, or on the delicate cyle with Woolite. And never put in the dryer.
