I was thinking about buying pashmina's for my BMs since November is likely to be cold and I don't want them freezing their butts off while we are waiting around outside taking photos.The place below (sorry not clicky) has them on sale for $4.95.  Probably not the greatest quality out there, but as these are just going to be a 'little extra' for me, I think they will serve their purpose.http://www.googdot.com/pashmina.html

    Did you order yet? I am interested, but the site looks a little shady.

    not yet, I have been searching for any reviews good or bad on the site, but haven't found anything.  Will update how it goes when/if I order (or find any reviews).

    Just a suggestion, but why don't you try going into the city and getting them there? They sell them all over for about $5 each, and the quality is really good.

    I bought 7 pashminas on 56th st and 6th ave for $30 ($4.28 each). Might be worth the trip... plus they are on nearly every corner for $5 each.

    It still is a good deal. A trip to the city could get expensive depending on where you live. I may be heading there for my wedding band within the next few weeks, but otherwise, it's a no go for me. I'll check out Five Below too.

    I was about to say what PP said.  If you are trekking to the city any time soon, I would def buy it there.  Same price, no shipping costs, and at least you can see what the quality is in person.

    Last week instead of taking a cab I walked from 62nd to 34th looking for these supposed pashmina stands that are on every corner and I did not see 1 person selling them! It was probably still too warm to be selling them? But now that it's getting cooler maybe I'll have better luck?

    really, Seabass?  what avenue were you walking along?  I work in midtown and i've been seeing them a lot in the past couple of weeks (during the week at least).

    Maybe I will check out 5 Below before making the trip.  Up until my company moved 6 months ago, I was in midtown and that would have made things much easier!Never really stopped at those stands so I didn't realized they sold them so cheaply.

    seabass, by the way, sometimes they are hidden in the handbag carts and aren't that visible.  good luck!

    It's not that big of a deal, it was a nice day so I decided to walk for exercise and thought I'd see some on the way. I didn't really go up to the carts and search through them I just kind of looked in the direction and if I didn't see them I kept going. I'm in the city Mon - Fri and I have plenty of time to get them so I'm not worried. Just thought it was funny that I didn't see any. I guess I just had a picture in my head of the streets over flowing with pashminas!

    I ordered pashminas for all of my female wedding guests at wholesalepashminascarves.com  (I know - weird and very long URL).  I was very hesitant, but the quality was pretty good, and the over all costs came to under $4 per pashmina after tax and shipping.  I can highly recommend.
