'shmina for me, 'shmina for you!

The other day I posted about how I don't crave shoes or purses the way some women do.  Some of you totally related, others love yourselves some heels and bowler bags, while others were probably left wondering "does she have a sense of style at all?!?!"

Why, yes I do. It might not be your cup of tea, but I can sum up my style in one sentence.

Tee-shirts-and-jeans-colorful-flats-basic-black-and-brown-sometimes-chunky-necklaces-often-muted-with-flashes-of-color-funky-tights-jersey-skirts-and-leggings-emphasis-on-underthings-and-absolutely-usually-if-I-can-swing-it-at-all-pashmina-scarves-as-often-as-possible.

Hmmkay?

I enjoyed said style very recently, while having brunch with some amazing bees:

Back: Tulip and gorgeous daughter, Tiramisu, Brooch, Guinea Pig

Front: D'Orsay, Me (Pencils), Cheeseburger, Lox. Turtle came too but had to leave for work! 

(Not sure how many of these women want their names out there, so, Bee names it is. I swear I remember all of them though! T, E, S, M, C, D and J, love ya!)

Aight, so. From my fashion manifesto above, you can likely gather there is one thing I'm pretty much in love with.  Pashminas. Scarves, in layman's terms (or, in terms if you don't feel like forking over cash for real pashmina cashmere from Kashmir, which I've only done once- well, Topher did it.)

I now present Kate, in pashminas, through the years.

It's safe to say I lurve pashminas. Do you like them?

I hope so.

Because I took the advice of all y'all and decided to do a giveaway and give away something that I SMOOCH A LOT.

It was a tough choice between underwear* and this.

Pashminas.

You really should love them too. As you can see from above, nothing completes a wardrobe like a classic black pashmina. My black pashmina has been across the world with me- literally- and it's still my favorite.

I like pashminas so much I made my bridesmaids take them as gifts, whether they wanted them or not.

Do you want one? I hope so.
