Sooo .... did Animapolis go home with you? Enquiring minds want to knowSo we all knew this was going to be a TERRIBLE season ... for our wallets! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
My H finally got some SS scarves in so I went to check it out this afternoon. I wound up very very surprised. I had the opposite problem as BBC just above this post - I fell in love with a scarf I had NO desire for when I first saw it flat. It’s one that many of you have oohed and ahhhed over and while I admired it on others, I did not like it for myself.
Yes, dear reader, it’s Animapolis! I thought it was way too busy and the reptiles were a major turn off - plus Godzilla takes up so much real estate. I heard my wallet heave a huge sigh of relief.
Well, I couldn’t resist trying it on in the store. Why not? I’d just be confirming that it’s not one for me. Well, whoa Nelly!!! It was a shock, a revelation!
However, this cw wasn’t as nice on me as the first one:
I also saw the Duels design (can’t remember the whole name). This was just a “meh” on me, and it’s not just because the lighting is so yellow in the store:
But omg Sieste!!! The dark blue is divine, but I have one dilemma. I’m not crazy about the red contrast hem. This isn’t the best photo - it looks 100% better in real life:
I’ve always thought that I’d have to love every aspect of a scarf for me to buy full price - my heart better be weeping for joy! So in the past, I passed on a few designs because I didn’t love the hem color. Now I regret it! Example: that pastel cw of Hippopolis. It had a light yellow hem that I just didn’t care for. Now I’d kill to find that scarf! Another example: the giant Terres Precieuses in purple from a couple of years ago. I passed because of the yellow hem, even though I loved everything else about it. So here I am, again dithering over whether I’d be happy with a hem color I’m not crazy about... Has this ever happened to you? Am I being too neurotic???
Lastly, another cw of Sieste. Gorgeous, too, but I don’t like the beige on the trees. (Mind you, I am being super nitpicky because there are just too many amazing goodies this season and I have to have a way to control myself!)
I am dying try the cws that Pautinka and FugitiveRouge and Festus have!
@Joannadyne, that last Sieste (CW 8) is on my short list. The shells look purple in your photo while H's product photo looks more blue. How would you describe the color? thank you so much for sharing these photos.So we all knew this was going to be a TERRIBLE season ... for our wallets! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I hope you'll be able to find them to try it so that you'll know for sure! I had the same thought as you initially, until I saw that it's actually lilac! A nice surprise but alas, once tied it's mostly hidden.Such an elegant cw, @weN84! Was this your choice for Sieste?
This was my initial pick when looking at stock pics, but I'm eager to hunt down 01, 05 and 08 to find the best cw for me. The colors in 01 that @csetcos bought are right up my alley. 
It's Larubizana.

I love all the cw’s of Sieste but can’t seem to find a photo of Sieste cw1. If it has been posted already, I would greatly appreciate a repost/redirect, if possible Thanks so much!
Thank you very much Ladybaga and litchi! It is a very bright and happy scarf.Wow, so spectacularly beautiful, Pautinka! The colours just pop! I'm sothe Sieste has not appeared in my boutique yet.
I love the blue one on you.So we all knew this was going to be a TERRIBLE season ... for our wallets! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I know what you mean about yellow. It's a colour that I don't go for naturally as I worry about how it will go with my hair, my skin, my eyes, my teeth.....but somehow this one works. I guessed that if I knew I suited the other colours in the scarf then the tone of the yellow would probably be ok....and it was! I think you would love the purple-fuchsia of the sky.
Thank you! It's a very elegant design. Re the bobbles, on my sweaters I use a comb or razor but on my CSGMs I only use a brush.
Oh yes, cw01 Sieste! More than the pretty cws, I'm eager to see if I can love the plume silk. I enjoy the heavy winter silk, but I remember trying out a 140cm spring silk two years ago and found it too light (someone said parachute silk?).I had the same thought as you initially, until I saw that it's actually lilac! A nice surprise but alas, once tied it's mostly hidden.
@Pautinka and H scarfies now online, when we have an ongoing discussion here, it feels like we're chatting about scarves irl over tea or coffee!
