Painting lampshades?

I've had these lampshades for years and I love them! The individual segments have faded in colour over time. I'd quite like to paint them as I haven't seen any I'd like to replace them with. They sound plastic. What type of paint do you think I'd need to paint them? That will stick to the segments but still allow light to get through? Thanks in advance x

Sorry, awful photo, they look much better in real life!

I would just make sure the paint can take the heat of the light bulbs.
