Discount codes for everyone elses shop

Hello,

Here's a money saving tip.

I came across this very handy site the other day.

Retailmenot.com - you can simply type in any domain name and it will tell you some current discount codes - try it www.mypashmina.co.uk !

To make it even easier , you can install a plugin in the Firefox browser (it's just 1 click to do this) , which means that if you are on a website where other people have discovered discunt codes , it will give you a signal. Click here to get this

I like the Tesco discounts, saving on everyday neccessities leaves more money to spend on cashmere !

We love our new gingham pashminas (£48 , visit www.mypashmina.co.uk ).

If you do, and you must have the shoes to match , then run along to www.funky-wellington-boots.co.uk and pick up these funky gingham wellies for just £29.99.

The swatchbook of 2008

If you've been to Mypashmina.co.uk lately you probably noticed that we introduced our new swatchbook this summer. A lot of effort was put into this swatchbook to make sure we have every colour you would ever need, while still being small enough for us to send it out to you. All of the 117 new colours are Pantone colours to make it easier for you to find matching cashmere products for the rest of your wardrobe.

This pile of beautiful colourful greens and blues (and a little yellow) gives you alternatives of colours that could brighten your outfit. The colours you see are, in order from the top: mp12 Buttercup, mp89 Lime Green, mp85 Forest Green, mp90 Online Lime, mp93 Verdant Green, mp94 Ultramarine Green, mp96 Biscay Bay, mp97 Enamel Blue, mp106 Princess Blue.

As you can see we have several different shades of off-white to perfectly match your outfit. Because of the delicate cashmere fibre we will never be able to offer you a pure paper white, but the whitest shade we have is completely undyed and perfectly natural. The bleaching we would have to use to make a pure white would destroy the cashmere fibre, so watch out when looking at pashminas from other sources. The colours you see in this pile are, in order from the top: mp1 White, mp2 White Sand, mp10 Winter White, mp77 Silver Birch, mp76 Sandshell, mp11 Italian Straw, mp78 Green Haze, mp40 Barely Pink, mp100 Blue Glow.

If you prefer the elegant and muted shades, there is a wide range of muted colours in the swatchbook. This pile shows you only some of the purple and pink shades, but we do have muted shades of every colour of the rainbow. The colours you see here are, in order from the top: mp54 Nightshade, mp63 Rabbit, mp58 Purpla Ash, mp42 Wood Rose, mp43 Withered Rose, mp44 Wild Ginger, mp31 Raspberry Wine, mp27 Rhododendron.

Not all of these colours are in stock in every model and size, but for no extra cost at all we can have any pashmina or cashmere knitwear made for you in only 3-4 weeks from any colour in the swatchbook. That's the way we do things at Mypashmina.co.uk

5.) Wrap and give a unique and much treasured Christmas present

simple!

We just tested our cashmere and it's 100% !

Click to enlarge.

We have just sent a pashmina for testing at SGS fibre testing labs. The result shows it is pure cashmere. This is the usual result, so it's not so exciting.

However, it is good to know, because there is a lot of cheating in the cashmere industry ... even Tescos got in trouble once for unknowingly having 7% rabbit hair mixed in !

If you are buying cashmere online, ask to see a copy of a test certificate. A good supplier (like Mypashmina!) will be happy to show you.

Cashmere for pets

I brought my cat (which is called Adolf shicklgrüber because he has a mustasch) into the office today and tried on a baby cardigan. Now, how cute is that?

The baby cardigan fits just great. Maybe a little bit bigger neck and slightly shorter legs. It would work to wear it outside, if it drizzles a bit you can shake the cardigan easily as the raindrops sets on the edges of the fibres. Would you like this item made? Maybe you have a cat/dog that you would like to give a little something for these cold and rainy days? It would cost just £34 for a pure cashmere cardigan.

You can just email or phone us. See www.mypashmina.co.uk for more ideas and contact details.

Pashminas in Vogue - Mypashmina.co.uk

I've just been looking at Vogue magazine, and they have an article on shawls..

They range from £200 up to £1565.

The one on the left in this picture is a very nice piece by Loro Piana, but the price is £870 !!

It looks quite similar to one that we have available for £79.50 (the pink one) , the weave looks similar and from the picture in Vogue it looks like they have used the same '100 count' fine cashmere as in ours. One difference is that the LP one is mixed with some silk.



If anyone has bought one of LP's and wants to see one of ours to compare the quality, please let me know.. i would love to hear from you.
