So, in particular order, here are the five tips for making the best of your embroidered Kashmir shawls during spring.
Tip #1 – Select lighter colored shawls
We know from the boffins in lab coats that darker colors tend to absorb and retain heat compared to lighter ones. This science fact is helpful to shawl wearers because it can help make transition from the biting cold of winter, to the crisp and inviting winds of spring. In this regard you should bring those lighter colors to the front of your wardrobe. Of course, you can add a bigger boost of comfort to your wardrobe by wearing those shawls that have lighter, more airy fabric. Lastly, rolled into this tip is the aspect of timing.
Tip #2 – Be dynamic in how you wear shawls
The good thing about embroidered Kashmir shawls is that you have endless ways of wearing them and the style can be very flexible. If you are making your way down to the shops or to pick up the kids, a shawl can still add a bit of elegance to your look. All you have to do is transform it into scarf. Many of the fine pieces we offer can help you make this switch
effortlessly. In the evenings shawls can then take on their more appropriate roles and you can simply wear it around your shoulders as a wrap.
Tip #3 – Make your shawls compliment everything you wear
Embroidered Kashmir shawls beyond the fact that they can double as scarfs are also very dynamic in terms of what they can be worn with. From this perspective you mustn’t shy away from wearing your shawls with your spring dress, casual shirts, jeans and formal gowns. The fashion world is really your oyster in this regard and by mixing and matching in this way, you keep a consistent fashion identity and a splendid sense of style.
Tip #4 – Ad versatility with different styles
There are many ways that women wear embroidered Kashmir shawls, and most have their own favorite style. It really does depend on what look you are trying to achieve but the simple way of draping it over your shoulder is a quick way to accessorise and get out and about. The more you learn though, the more dynamic you’ll look and feel so it helps to take some study of the most popular ways of wearing a shawl. We covered a few ways to wear an embroidered Kashmir shawl some time ago and you can take a look to see which style best suits your needs.
