Shawls/wraps?

Anyone else using a shawl for yourself &/or BMs?  I originally wasn't going to, but this cool weather has made me reconsider.  My dress is diamond white, really just like a light ivory color, and the BM dresses are navy satin.  Our colors are mostly navy & silver.  Any ideas or suggestions?  I've searched silver shawls, but I can't really find anything wedding appropriate.  Thanks, ladies!

    I've seen some beautiful silvery gray pashminas before.  Try Sam Moon or maybe Charming Charlie's.  You could also check out Dillard's or Macy's.

    I'm not, but I think a couple of my bridesmaids may.

    I tried Sam Moon & CC, but didn't really find anything I liked.  I LOVE the Target one, thank you!

    I got married in November and my BMs wore wraps and we pinned them in the back with a brooch.  It looked nice I thought.

    They are really soft too!  I got mine months ago, and I cant belive they are down to such a low price.  I might pick up another just for myself!

    Stephie - The brooch is such a great idea!  I didn't even consider that as an option.  It would be a great touch especially since the rest of the dress doesn't have any bling.  Thanks!

    Acholak - I purchased a blue one for myself.  Not sure if I will use it for the wedding or not, but I couldn't pass it up.  :)  I may put them in w/ their gifts..especially if I get the brooches.  I should get them w/in a week or so - I'm excited!

    Yeah, Becky Fowler actually showed me this idea.  It was a nice touch since their dresses were just plain.  You can't see the back here but here is how it looked around their shoulders.
