"My sister loves this beautiful shawl!"
I bought this shawl for my sisters birthday. She got tears in her eyes when she opened the gift box. I knew she would love it. She has always been a fashionable woman and she knows good quality when she sees it. She even wore the shawl my wedding. I will save Wilmer Vilchez information for future purchases.
