m & b cruising Posted August 3, 2006 #1 Share Posted August 3, 2006 :confused: I am sailing on the Constellation on 26th Aug around Baltics. I have read on some threads that the ships are quite cool at night. Will dresses or tops with spaggetti straps be to cold to be worn on their own? Will I definitely have to wear something over the top to or something around shoulders & back? I tend to be a very warm person, but I'm just a little concerned that all my evening wear may not be enough. I'm having difficulty finding dressy wraps that aren't to thick & wintery looking. If anybody can comment on if I need to wear something or recommend anywhere in the uk I maybe able to purchase something suitable, that would be great. Thanks.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starbright Posted August 4, 2006 #3 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Try www.mypashmina.co.uk I bought some pashminas there for the bridesmaids at my daughter's wedding to wear. They're very light and fine and they do them in dozens of different colours. They send them very quickly and the prices are good too. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esther e Posted August 4, 2006 #4 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Funny you bring this up. We were just talking and saying how this is one of the few ships where we haven't been cold at night in the theater or any of the lounges or restaurants. But, just in case, a lightweight cover might be good. For $10 they sell pashmina-type shawls in many colors. I've bought them before and they work just fine for me.

m & b cruising Posted August 6, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted August 6, 2006 :) Hi Starbright & Esther e Many thanks for the responses on this subject. It must have been an omen putting this thread on, as on Saturday after posting this I found just what I had been looking for & got 3 lovely shrugs which I think should be ideal. However, the Pashmina's look lovely & so many beautiful colours, so I think I may end up getting some of those too!! Thanks again, I really can't wait for the cruise to come around!!
