| I apologise that this is the 10,000 reblog but Jimi, in that bedroom with that Piano Shawl bed.... :) |
I am actually in love with my two Vintage Piano Shawls, one is plain silk with humongous tassels and the other a stunning brown crepe silk with bronze embroidered flowers and tassels. The moment I put them on I feel like I am transformed into some kind of Gypsy/ Stevie Nicks type and swish where ever I walk. Paired with a maxi dress and a pair of Indian sandals, they are my wedding outfit staple. When I am not wearing them they have pride of place draped over the door of my open wardrobe so I can admire them ever time I get dressed...
They do cost a fair old bit for the originals but you can dig out a really good copy on ebay or even dig out a bargain at your local thrift/vintage store. They are well worth an investment..

| Of course you could always wear your vintage Piano Shawl :Chinese Shawl circa 1885-1910 |
Gorgeous! me eye was particularly drawn to the unusual shaped lamps in 2 of the pics. I have a thing for lamps!
ReplyDeleteyes! they are so beautiful. I bought a new one off ebay recently, but i did some real hunting to find one that i was happy with and it is so stunnning. I've been looking to get a couple of vintage ones also x
ReplyDeleteI wore my piano shawl to a wedding last summer and with a maxi dress, which wasn't only a dress but a culotte dress. Spot on. All that fringing works well with the kind of dancing you can only get away with at a wedding reception.
ReplyDeletereally love that cream one shown in the first pic
ReplyDeleteI just adore them, no mater where they are draped be it a person or the home they add instant "amazing".
