This shell is so refined, yet so playful - all at the same time. Those stars (knitting them is easy, but seems magical) are a fascinating, eyecatching embellishment, yet at the same time they seem to serve as an anchor. The bottom line: the Starlight Shell will make you look great in any setting whatsoever!
