Am going to a ball on May 14th. Have dress, jewellery etc sorted.

Now I need something for the shoulders. Years of school prom experience have taught me that shawls+alcohol = lost. So this year I want a nice capey thingy although not in manner of superhero, more cool sophisticated twenty something.

I basically want something like this but in black...

Dress is traditional A-line ballgown in a blue/black shiny fabric.

Any other arm hiding but unloseable thingy suggestions are welcome.

TIA

Shame you dont want a shawl - I have a black and gold sparkly one you could borrow.

They had a furry type one in Monsoon a while ago, I dont know whether they still do them.

This comes in black but doesn't show how it fastens.

Oooh sorry, was distracted, they are beautiful! I am going back into town on Monday, so I hope I will find something, although I am debating ordering the kaledescope one anyway!

Despite my better judgement I went into town today and bought a beautiful embriodered SHAWL from acceszorise.

This is the shawl and my dress if you are interested!
