Pashminas are very handy for all types of situations since they are painless to fold up and put away in your shoulderbag if you get too hot. The pashmina wool keeps out the cold very well, so instead of dragging around a heavy coat on a chilly spring or summer evening, a pashmina shawl will suffice as a convenient overgarment.
Shawls have now become really stylish as a fashion accessory/apparel at wedding ceremonies. The last couple of summertimes in the United Kingdom have been pretty miserable, so perhaps this has encouraged this new style. Gold pashminas as well as cream an white are fashionable selections for wedding parties, and look wonderful if all the maids of honor have a matching colour pashmina shawl.
If you order a larger size pashmina shawl, it can also act as a convenient little blanket for those arduous journeys. And of course, it can transform into a scarf for wintertime.
There are two main types of shawl - the the 70% pashmina / 30% silk pashmina, and the 100% pashmina variety. The non-pure shawl you can buy at cheaper prices than the 100% pashmina counterpart, but it will be less warm. It’s up to you as to what you want to use your pashmina for. Is it strictly for fashion purposes, or ALSO apparel to keep out the cold too? I strongly advocate 100% pashminas to keep out the cold.
