Latest Accessory Trend
1/04/00
Hello again everyone!
I'd just like to take this time to thank all you for you
incredible
support of this website. I'd also like to remind all of you
that I am always
here if you have any questions.
This week I'd like to discuss the newest trends --
pashminas. Now, don't
get me wrong -- these little shawls are definitely one of
the cutest things
on the market right now. However, they bare a striking
price tag -- from
$200 -- $3000 dollars.
The question is -- are they worth
it? Not many of us
would spend that much on one single accessory piece. For
the cost of one
pashmina, I could afford to buy all my accessories for the
next year!
Ultimately I think you need to decide if you can afford the
high cost of
fashion. If you decide you can't, try one of these
affordable options:
* Buy a cute peacoat. It has the same function as a
pashmina and offers
maximum wear. It's also a stylish alternative to the costly
price of a
pashmina.
* Buy a cute cardigan sweater. Pick one in a neutral
color -- it will
coordinate with all of you other outfits.
* Buy a pretty shawl for dressier occasions. Buy one
with beading in
black or white. These shawls are great for dances and other
dress-up dates.
* Try making your own pashmina out of a cheap cashmere
fabric from a
craft store. The differences may be noticeable, however
making your own
gives you creative freedom! Feel free to bead and decorate
however you feel
necessary. The ultimate bonus here? You'll be able to show
all your admirers
just how creative you can really be!
Hope you enjoyed reading my column again this week!
Thanks go to all of
you fashion-hungry grrrls out there who make this site as
successful as it is!
Good Luck!
