These are great, ABQ. I've always been intrigued by Les Amoureux and my eyes are terrible - are those the names of famous lovers from literature and/or real life? Can you possibly share some of them? Such a cool scarf.

Here you go, Moma! The design of Les Amoureaux de Paris (designed in 1951 by Maurice Tranchant) depicts a map of Paris, complete with famous landmarks, and silhouettes of 23 sets of lovers (listed pretty much left to right, top to bottom). This is my list, so I apologize for any errors -- I learned a lot, though! (Google each couple for remarkable histories)
1. Rodin – Rose (Bueret)
2. Le Chateau de Verre (film) Michèle Morgan– Jean Marais* (actors)
3. Louise – Julien* (opera “Louise”)
4. Chopin – George Sand
5. Jean-Jacques Rousseau – Sophie d’Houdetot
6. Josephine – Bonaparte
7. Moliere – Armande Béjart
8. Lauzun – La Grande Mademoiselle (Antoine Nompar de Caumont, duc de Lauzun and Anne Marie Louise d'Orléans, Duchess of Montpensier)
9. Victor Hugo and Juliette Drouet
10. Manon – Des Grieux* (novel Manon Lescaut, then opera Manon)
11. Marguerite Gautier – Armand Duval* (novel La Dame aux Camélias)
12. Henry IV – La Belle Gabrielle
13. André Chénier – Aimée de Coigny
14. Madame Recamier – Chateaubriand
15. Mme. de Staël – Benjamin Constant
16. Ninon de Lenclos – Villarceaux
17. Villon – la Grosse Margot* (poem “Ballad of the Fat Margot”)
18. Lamartine – Elvire* (poem “A Elvire”)
19. Duchesse de Langeais – Armand de Montriveau* (novel “Scènes de la vie Parisienne” section of La Comédie Humaine)
20. Julien Sorel – Mme. de Rênal* (novel Le Rouge et Le Noir)
21. Balzac – Mme Deberny
22. Héloïse – Abélard
23. Mimi – Rodolphe* (opera La Bohème)
 
Love with your fab hair moma!
Thank you, twin!
OMG, this looks fab on you!
I did try it, but as much as I liked the pattern and the fabric, it did not look as good on me when tied...

Oh moma- that is fabulous on you!
Thank you, everybody!
Fantastic all together moma! Do I spy some purple hair locks?
A little pick-me-up for spring, which hasn't actually arrived yet! LOL. It was freezing today.
What absolutely lovely colours on you :smile:

Love this on you! The earrings are a great complement
Thank you! They are really fun and very inexpensive. My daughter gave them to me when she was in 8th grade - quite a while ago!

Oh, you are amazing!!! Thank you! This is fabulous. (I *do* need this scarf - I think there's a gavroche!) I know about two thirds of these folks. Must investigate further. You know Andrea Chenier is also an (Italian) opera. Aimée becomes Maddalena!
