    I brought my pashminas from a market £2 each or 3 for a fiver. I have loads. :D I would go for cream.

    Talking of colours...what would go with a long brown gypsy type skirt apart from white?

    Do you like bright colours? I'd probably go for something like burnt orange - stunning with brown.

    Brown and teal/duck egg blue is fashionable at the mo.

    Ricki, I'd go with cream/gold or black to match your shoes.

    I'm going to a Black Tie Dinner. I have a dark burgundy ball gown and I need to find a pashmina to cover my shoulders. What colour do you suggest? Or any other ideas maybe?

    I've got a lovely lilac one which might go with it. If you'd like to borrow it rather than fork out for a new one, PM me and I'll bung it in the post for you.

    Would love lovely with silver accessories and maybe a slick of silver eyeshadow.
    :eek: What if the hokey cokey is what it's all about? :eek:

    Go om the market and buy a length of cream tulle and get a friend with a sewing machine to stitch gold or burgundy ribbon around the edge.

    A freind of my daughters got married in a burgundy dress and needed something to cover her shoulders, this is what I did for her and it looked stunning..............
