Wardrobe Must Have - Pashmina Shawl (Read My Review Of Retailer 'Pashmina International')

In my opinion, a Pashmina shawl is a must-have for any wardrobe not only in winter, but for spring/Summer too - specially if you live in a place where Spring/Summer evenings get cooler (Believe me - I have lived in Chicago!) Soft, warm, luxurious, elegant, versatile and beautiful are the words I think when I think of Pashmina. And all these words do justice to this Sunshine Yellow Pashmina shawl I was sent for review by UK retailer Pashmina International. They are a family owned business that provide high quality real Pashmina and Cashmere shawls. Pashmina literally means wool in Persian but these days any shawl/scarf is referred to as Pasmina, which is really misleading! You can tell the difference between a real Pashmina shawl and a mass-produced viscose shawl (oftentimes sold as Pashmina) just by a touch. Real Pashmina oozes softness and warmth and a vibrancy no acrylic fabric can copy. I was really pleased with the quality, look and feel of this shawl. Being from India, I know first hand what a real luxurious Pashmina feels like! We make it in Kashmir and our neighbor Nepal produces best Pashmina in the world!

You really need an elegant Pashmina shawl on occasions where you don't want to cover up your pretty dress or shirt with a jacket or cardigan, but want to stay warm in style. June weddings, summer graduation ceremonies, dinner dates, theaters where one dresses up for a show - I can think of so many occasions we need a Pashmina shawl! And Pashmina International have the colors and varieties for every occasion and outfit!

The shawl I received from Pashmina International is a Nepal Pashmina, with a silk blend - it is lighter and softer than regular Pashmina - perfect for any occasion all year long where you need a light weight but warm shawl.


I was surprised to see the great prices and deals on Pashmina and Cashmere shawls on Pashmina International, and the best thing - they ship worldwide for free! They only sell pure, high quality Pashmina (judging by the quality of the shawl I received, I can vouch for their promise) - no acrylic or viscose shawl on their website! They support fight against breast cancer and will match your donations when you buy any Pink Pashmina from them - great product, great price and great cause - what's not to love!
I urge you to check out Pashmina International  for your next Pashmina purchase. I believe you will be as happy and satisfied with them as I have been! Here is to the style, elegance and luxury of Pashmina!
