How to wear a pashmina
Seeing as how we have NEW IN pashminas we thought we would give you some advice on how to wear a pashmina. Pashminas can be worn all year round to add some glamour to your outfits. They are especially ideal in Autumn/Winter when it gets a bit colder! The pashmina shawl is such a versitile addition to your wardrobe and can be worn in many ways, here are a few ideas:

* Wear your pashmina as a belt, it can be folded in half and tied at the back or side
* Wear your pashmina as a scarf, pashminas are lightweight and can be thrown in your handbag when you get to the office!
* Use as a travel blanket or pillow, taking a pashmina on a plane is alot easier than carrying round a big blanket or pillow!
* Use your pashmina as a sarong or beach cover up, ideal layer of warmth when coming out of the chilly sea!
* Keep a pashmina in your office drawer, when the air conditioning gets too cold, wrap yourself up!
* Pashminas can be an elegant way of keeping warm in restaurants or on evenings out and look gorgeous for special events over a stunning evening dress, celebrities have been wearing pashminas for years!
* Pashminas make a great gift for new mums, perfect for mother and baby to share!
* Wear your pashmina hollywood style, A unique and stylish look, this style requires two different pashminas, usually of varying colors. These two pashminas are intertwined and draped around the neck. Indeed, if one pashmina shawl is already great, then two must be twice as fabulous.
* Try the Grace Kelly look, If you’re riding in a convertible and don’t want your hair to blow all over the place, or if you just like a classic look with a mysterious vibe, try draping a pashmina over your head a la 1950s glamour style. Leaving the front part of your hair exposed, place a pashmina over your head, holding the sides close to the sides of your head. Bring the pashmina ends under your chin and pull to the back of you. Tie in a knot; or you can tie in a knot on the side of your neck, allowing the ends to fall effortlessly and casually. Pair with an oversized pair of sunglasses for all-out glamour
* Sash: Drape your pashmina over one shoulder and bring it down and across your body to the opposite hip. You can either knot your pashmina or use a shawl pin or clip to keep it secure

New category layout

2008-11-01T12:25:00.002Z

Hi
Here at Stella5 we have been sorting out out categories to make navigation around the site easier for the customers, i found that when i was working on the site i was finding it hard to quickly find what i was looking for, and thought well if its hard for me, whats it like for you guys? so we have added new titles which should be of help. We have added a gifts section, so Christmas Gifts should be easier to find.
I have also been delighted to hear from Vogue and The Clothes Show this week, wanting Stella5 to be in the magazine and at the show. Quite an achievement to be invited to showcase our Fashion Boutique.

Size/colour changes - Stardust Kids

2008-06-03T14:37:00.008+01:00

Hi all

I have had a big sort out on Stella5. Stardust Kids have slightly changed the sizes of their clothes range, so we now do most childrens bits up to 9-10 years! Also, we have more colours available in this range, most t-shirts, babygrows etc come in red, black, blue green or pink, so a bit more choice. The childrens printed t-shirts are now printed with a dark blue ink rather than black, so that the writing is visable on all colour backgrounds. A few lines have been discontinued to make way for the new items, and the womens personalised t-shirt with MASH txt has gone from red to yellow txt. I think thats it! Now i think i deserve a tea break! more updates soon x

Coming soon!

2008-05-19T13:13:00.004+01:00

New look for the site

2008-05-15T11:20:00.003+01:00

Hi
Just a quick update for you all! Stella5 has had a little revamp! new colour scheme, the pink has gone and we have gone for a powder blue and brown. We wanted to make the site a bit more unisex and also found that alot of sites were opting for pink, well, we cant be the same as everyone else, so it had to go! Also we have now created a NEW IN category, so that those customers who visit on a regular basis will not have to search forever to find new products. Hopefully this will help make the site a bit more user friendly!
