"Ombre shawl"





Vinita: I am thrilled with my purchase. Ordering was simple. Tracking provided with shipment notification. I love my shawl. I don't know if this is always the case with this artist but her images were very accurate for color. That is always a problem with many things purchased on line. I love the varying shades. My dress has the same shades of purples and greys so it doesn't really look overly matchy. I'm wearing this for a big event in NYC. I hope people ask where I purchased. My only complaint is probably my own lack of knowledge but I think it could be a tad larger to wrap the way I wanted. Thank you it was a positive experience so I had to review!
