Panic not - silk shawl to the rescue. These pretty babies will make sure that you are covered and that too in style!
Silk, a delicate fabric not only looks good, but is also environmentally friendly. Silk shawls of good quality have a natural ability to keep you cool in those warm, summer days and provide you with an extra layering on frosty, wintery evenings. In countries like India and Thailand silk has been used for several years to create wonderful clothes, bedspreads and other trendy accessories.
A silk shawl is also a great investment as this fabric is extremely durable and can be used for years to come. A classic silk shawl in a good colour and print can be teamed with any attire and worn for any occasion. If worn with a smart pair of trousers and a crisp shirt, it can give your office attire some extra zinc, and if paired with a cocktail dress, it can be a pleasant change from the single colour monotony.
Commonly referred to as the "bridal fabric", silk has an amazing texture and lustre, which gives your entire attire an expensive and chic look. Available in lots of hues, patterns and sizes, silk shawls are easy to style and enhance any outfit. It can be wrapped in different ways, depending on the outfit you are donning and of course the event you are targeting.
It is a common phenomenon for women to stand in front of a closet full of clothes and still wonder what to wear. Even the most mundane outfit can be altered to look classy and elegant with a help of a nice, colourful silk shawl. It is a great idea to have more than one silk shawl in your wardrobe for any sartorial emergencies. It can be easily tucked in any of your totes and pulled out whenever needed.
