Silk for Mama Patch Ring Sling again, how can I ever resist the beauty of these silk fabric?

Three pairs matching pastel to choose from

Beautiful embroidery borders
While shopping for new Shantung Silk color, I came across these beautiful fabric, the blended cotton silk, which is also label as Raw Silk. Unlike light weave raw silk scarf that I have, these blended raw silk has got a very strong weave, not to mention the beautiful strong color that you can see on my color chart below.
Comparison to the blended Shantung Fabric
Although it is a little bit thicker than the Shantung fabric I got earlier, it definitely feel very cooling to the skin. With a more distinguish weave appearance, this fabric is much more smoother and quite glossy. Very cottony feeling if you love the feel of cotton, and yet wants to enjoy the luxury of silk.
Matching with a pair of medium size aluminium rings (for easy adjustment) from slingrings.com, you can be assured that this beautiful fabric is very easy to adjust and holds your baby well in place.
But is silk slippery on the rings?
Tips: A very easy way to distinguish a good silk used is that it would not slip through although the aluminium rings.

De Pastel (Celery) Ring Sling
After wearing Ring Sling with long tails, I decided to test some sling with shorter tails. Using matching light color tones of Shantung Silk, De Pastel is designed with a pointed tails and light embroidery at the borders.
Surprisingly, some friends commented my RS looks better with shorter length. As oppose to longer tail, shorter tail gives a neater and fresher look too. And I personally feel it is so much safer as I do not have to worry about the tail of my sling get caught into the going up escalator. What do you think? Do you prefer shorter or longer tails when you wear your sling?
