You still get some credit for having a discerning friend, archygirl.
I highly recommend visiting Paris with a friend, they help you choose wisely, as pierina2 noted!

My most favorite purple scarf turns out to be a 70cm: Brandebourg (2008 issue I believe).
It's probably one of the only two colorways of this design that I like (the other one is a 90cm).
The grey on the jacket and the orange buttons make a great contrast.
The scarf laying flat:
a look with a pearl necklace (courtesy of an eBay seller from a long time ago) that I'm dying to try once I find a necklace with perfect length for this look.
Side criss-cross knot
friendship knot to show the ribbons and orange buttons at two ends
I am not a big purple fan (though I like it on others) so most of my scarves are not predominantly purple. The Raconte-moi is a very bluish lavender and La Legende convinced me with its chartreuse border. Then Kilim and Pique Fleuri GM with mostly warm, plummy purples.
I'm not completely certain of the name, but it's a mini brides de gala silk jersey scarf in yellow/mustard/lime green and beige.
Here's an older picture of it:
Purple week? I adore all shades of purple.
Here is one from the archives, Recontre Oceane
One more, while I'm not feeling lazy! Grande Tenue on the right, mainly purple
I have to fudge the theme a bit today to participate. I have blurples and some quasi purples...hope you don't mind some archive pics.

As u can see, I cannot wear blue-purples or blurples. That purple Pegase? Could not wear it. Only showing my purple, plums, prunes, violets, and lavender. I have some lilacs but my camera just shows them as light blue anyway so no go.

Silky friends,
I am so excited about my new scarf. Absolutely enabled by Tango, Hermesick and Chestnut!! I know when I have to take a deep breath upon opening a box that a scarf has staying power. The shading of rich amber with white contrast and that bit of emerald kill me! Thanks for letting me share, Azulesjos
Still hot and sunny here so today wearing a purple pareo bikini cover up - the design needs no introduction. Hope everybody had a lovely week end!
vigee, You wear EVERYTHING so perfectly! Pastels, brights...you name it, you always look so beautiful and put together! You DD is gorgeous, too!!!
