Nimli Review and Azuri Shawl Giveaway

GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED

The Random Number Generator selected #103 so Congratulations to Barbara! I have sent an email to her and she has 48 hours to respond. Thank you so much to all who participated!

One of my favorite pastimes as a teenage girl was to spend countless hours browsing through all the popular fashion magazines dreaming about all the gorgeous, stylish, chic clothes, accessories and beauty products in them. I was always captivated by the women I would see wearing beautiful, flowing, silky shawls gently and effortlessly draped over their shoulders. I always thought they looked so Parisian and European Chic, a fantasy that was a far cry from how I sat staring at them from my bedroom. Those lingering thoughts from when I was a dreamy eyed teenager came back to haunt me when I browsed through all the amazing products and designers listed on the Nimli website. It is a real treat to visit there, and be dazzled and inspired by so much beauty! And, who knew eco-friendly and being green could be so chic?

A few of my favorite items from Nimi are the Lara Miller Tiered Ronnie Dress, I think it is so unique in its design, I love the pleating at the top portion of the dress and I think the fit of the dress is very flattering for a lot of different body types. What an ultra chic and adorable dress to wear out to a special occasion.

The Laura Elizabeth Jewelry Barbara Necklace is another item that just really caught my eye. The bright, bold look of this necklace will make such an elegant fashion statement to any outfit. I can see myself wearing this with a simple black dress or change things up and wear it with a basic white tee and a favorite pair of jeans, either way it is a versatile piece that will transform your look from ordinary to extraordinary!

Or, if you are a shoe diva like me, then finding a pair of really hot, sexy shoes that you totally covet is exciting and that's the effect these Wine colored Neuaura Tamarin Sandals had on me, wow is all I can say!

The generous folks at Nimli sent me a stunning Azuri Cashmere Pashmina Shawl in the pretty pale color Lemon. I couldn't wait to take it out of its protective plastic wrap to run my fingers through it, feel its silky soft texture and test out how it feels draped across me. It made me want to twirl in a circle and pretend I was one of those fashion models in the magazines that I used to dream about when I was a young girl. Let me say, the shawl made me feel everything I had imagined it would. I felt pretty, feminine, chic, a touch Parisian, and definitely confident. I can't wait to wear it out with one of my summer sundresses and hit the town with my husband for a night out! It will serve to keep me warm in the air conditioned restaurant as well as in the night summer air. This Azuri shawl will also be that finishing touch that my outfit needs to have to give it that pulled together polished "complete" look.

I was very impressed with the quality of the fabric of this shawl. It is ultra soft, a very tight thread count, and in my opinion impeccably made. I was amazed at how many different beautiful colors you can choose to purchase this shawl in. This shawl literally comes in every color you can think of. Here's more detailed information about it, then we will move on to the GIVEAWAY!
