Cashmere Pashmina Shawls and Scarves

By Elle Granderson

One of the important elements in Middle Eastern luxury, Pashmina wraps stylishly blend fashion and function. A Middle Eastern womans best cover against severe desert environments, a Pashmina shawl wraps or scarf blocks-out burning sun, places a wall against freezing bitter cold, and blocks-out dust and sand.

Woven in rich textures, enriched with gorgeous, intricate patterns, and splashed with a whole rainbow of colors, Pashmina shawls and scarves take the ordinary out of every day. This is excellent if you are trying to stand out in a crowd or have a new look that your friends or maybe even your husband will notice right off the bat.

A womans Pashmina scarf or shawl may become the principal element in her signature style"the go-everywhere, do-everything piece that adds grace and flair to everything from jeans and a turtleneck to a black evening gown. Great with a camel hair coat and wonderful with a London Fog or Burberry raincoat, the Pashmina scarf or shawl never goes out of season or out of style.

Expert weavers blend in history, heritage, culture and art with each shuttle pass, and some Pashmina designs trace their roots back thousands of years. They say every Pashmina tells a story, and every Pashmina certainly enriches the story of the woman it adorns. Bold and bright, lavishly colored and textured, a Pashmina shawl wrap can signal the womans adventurous spirit. Subtle, muted, and understated, the Pashmina can reveal the womans calm, reflective, and introspective spirit. Intricate and sophisticated, a Pashmina even can enfold a woman in her dreams.

But no matter how much the Pashmina shawl wrap or scarf reveals, it always preserves its unmistakable element of mystery. So, if you are looking to be a mystery to someone or just seem like there is something that you just arent telling " then this is definitely what you are looking for. - 16650
