Silver?

Pinot · 14/05/2012 16:38

It's lush and would go with orange, bright crisp white or a pale pink.

Or how about a patterned pashmina wrap instead? Keep it more flippy to go with the flippy style of the dress?

noddyholder · 14/05/2012 16:39

Its lovely but a cardi would make it dowdy agree a pashmina would look better

ggirl · 14/05/2012 16:39

did think of a pashmina but they're hard to control
keep falling off
could tie it I suppose

OP posts:
Pinot · 14/05/2012 16:44

Something like this would keep pashmina in place. I love olde brooches.

Pinot · 14/05/2012 16:47

Or a gold pashmina? That'd work.

ggirl · 14/05/2012 16:51

pretty

ooh I like that pashmina alot. It ties in with the sort of grecian style of your dress. YY. Plus afterwards, I would wear that all summer. With an all white outfit - PHWOAR.
