A preppy reader wrote yesterday with this dilemma:
I stumbled upon your blog while looking around for a light blue (or light pink) cashmere wrap for my wedding day.
The colors for my wedding are pink and green and when I saw your blog, I thought I found nirvana. I was thinking about the blue to complete the whole "something old, something new...", but could go with pink, too.
The one wrap I saw in The Knot was from White + Warren and looks lovely, but I was wondering if there were other places for me to look and was hoping for some advice.
This is a great question for most brides. Whether you want to find a wrap for yourself or your lovely bridesmaids, buying a �pashmina� online can be a risky move. There are too many �import� sites that leave you feeling great about the price of the product, but less confident about what it will look like when it arrives at your front door.
I suggest sticking to websites that you know and trust.
Anthropologie has a great silk crocheted shrug that would look great for a non-traditional bride.
Last but not least, there is a site called Rocky Mountain Emporium that specializes in pashminas. They have a great color selection and guess what? You can monogram your pashminas. And you know how much I love a monogram.
For my own wedding, I made the trip to Canal Street in NYC to pick out some lovely ivory colored wraps for my bridesmaids. They were significantly less, but I needed to view and feel the fabric in person!
Happy Shopping and Good Luck on your Wedding!
