I know there's been threads about this so sorry but where do you ladies buy your trusted good quality not over-the-top-expensive pashminas? TIA

The local market!

Apart from that, got a couple of nice ones in Accessorize - one fuchsia pink and one bright aquamarine, my two fave colours.

Just bought a lovely dark blue Pashmina from My Pashmina for about £60. I love it!

The accessorize shop offers a good range of accessories you can choose from including pashminas. Though if you have a night market in your area, you could try looking for one there. They usually are sold almost anywhere and like what is said above, even in the local market.

Or if you are going to a beach, you need not worry about getting one ahead as you probably would be offered one there a number of times that you could handle.

Hey tia, Pashminas are generally very expensive and if you are looking for one try something branded as the quality will be better than what u find at the local market.
try these i have the one in wine pink. Its quite good and warm too.

Hope this helps

I've got a few from M&S. They're about £40, but have the right amount of actual pashmina and silk in them. Warm as toast, and nice and soft. Mmm.

Thank you all for your replies.

I would like a deep red pashmina, no pattern, really good quality so definitely not one from the market.

Problem is I don't understand about the qualities so it's hard to buy one online without seeing and feeling them.

M&S don't have anything in plain deep red.

This one I like www.pashminagifts.co.uk/Red-Pashmina-Shawl/6.htm
but again, without seeing it it's hard to know what the quality is like.

I thought maybe somebody would share their trusted pashmina sources...

Thanks funny! Not quite sure they have the right shade of red. This is exactly what I'm after (the red one), except for the price tag! www.selfridges.com/en/Accessories/Categories/Scarves/Silk-and-cashmere-pashmina_159-78064228-SC14550114210/
