Summer Silk
Would anyone like to backpack the old Silk Road with me next summer?
I'm graduating from university in May 2009 and want/get to take the trip of a lifetime and I have a craving for something completely wild and off the beaten path. I'm thinking of taking 2-3 months and starting in Istanbul and working across Asia to Beijing.
I'm American but I'm a lot more world-oriented than most of my countrymen. I'm just a regular guy, I like to party, debate politics (I happily voted for Obama), learn new things, see the world, and meet new people. I'd like to think that I have my head on straight and consider myself to be responsible and fairly well-grounded.
As far as travel, I really want to go to Iran and would love to see Afghanistan and it really makes me angry that both countries are so difficult to get into, but they are options nonetheless.
That's going to be a beautiful trip. Good luck
Solid Colors
There are so many different colors that these types of scarves can come in. Whatever color you are looking for, chances are you will be able to find it. For example if you are looking for a purple to match your dress you are wearing this evening, you can try the Pashmina Silk Wrap in lavender. It is light and soft and the color is absolutely beautiful!
Designs and Patterns
Are you looking for a funky design for your scarf? Perhaps an animal print of some sorts to drape along your shoulders? There are plenty of different patterns to choose from! Looking for something that has a subtle pattern on it? Why not try the Mary Pink Embroidered Wool Pashmina Wrap? This shawl is beautiful with its delicate flower design and stunning color. Feeling a little frisky? Try on the Green Leopard Animal Print Silk Blend Wrap. Its fun and utterly puuurfect!
Light and Airy
If you are looking for a shawl that you can wear during the summer nights, then you will need something that is breathable and not too heavy. The Pure Pashmina Wrap Mango Ring Style is sheer and cool. It is great for a warm sunny day and you want to keep the sun off of you, or at night when the temperature drops just a few degrees. Since the shawl is so thin it will not stick to your skin, and will feel as light as a feather.
Warm and Wooly
During the chilly months you need something that will keep you warm and cozy. You will want to get a much thicker shawl than you would normally use during the summer. Instead of sheer you will opt for solid material that will provide not only warmth but also comfort. The Pure Pashmina Wrap is pure wool and very soft. It will keep you toasty during the winter months, which will make it hard to part with when Springtime comes around.
A Pashmina is a beautiful and smart piece to add to your wardrobe. You are able to wear these anytime of the year, depending on the material that you purchase them in. Wrap up in one today!
