Thank you sooo much! (It’s ok to be a little jelly - that’s what fuels the hunt, no?)
Lol, thank you! When I saw this online, I about fainted as well!!
Thank you, dear Croisette! I hope your package worries are put to rest soon - there’s nothing as anxiety-producing as waiting on scarf mail. Crossing fingers for you!
Thank you, moma!! Cloudiness and magic, yes! I’ll try to take some pictures in the sun today...
Thank you, kaduna! I’m totally in love [emoji7] I have one other changeant but it’s so much more subtle than this one. I love the stronger shift in color!
I swooned hard over your la Rosee, bunny, and never thought I’d be able to get anything close to it. I’m so so thrilled to be cw twins with you!!
10 Feb 2019 -LOVE IS IN THE AIR- Red and/or Romantic scarves!
Red is a very special color.
Red cars are more likely to get pulled over. Waitresses wearing red are more likely to get bigger tips. Sports team wearing red uniforms are more likely to win. It is associated with energy, aggression, blood, but also with passion, love and romance (together with pink, which many scientists to be a shade of red) -- and the latter is why it is this week's theme, as Valentine's Day is coming up. It also happens to be a favorite color of yours truly.
Fortunately for us red lovers, Hermes has made many red scarves over the years. There is even a shade of red associated with Hermes -- Rouge H, although silk colors are nowhere as standardized as leather colors.
This week, I invite you all to share your scarves featuring shades of red and pink. Whether it is claret, magenta, burgundy, fuchsia, cerise, carmine, vermillion, ruby, garnet, cardinal, maroon, coral, crimson, cadmium, cherry, berry, carnelian, blush, cochineal, venetian red, oxblood or any other shade -- all are welcome.
This is also a great week to share your romantic scarves that make you think of Valentine's Day. I don't have that many romantic scarves myself, so I would love to see what others will share.
I wish you all a great week, and am looking forward to seeing everyone's treasures.
Below I am sharing a small selection of my red / pink scarves -- these are just the ones waiting to be handwashed the other day (as a side note, many of us know that it is the color that is most likely to bleed in vintage scarves, but thankfully, Hermes has improved their dyes' colorfastness in recent decades). The Amours mosseline in it is serving double duty of being red and romantic! I am on a business trip this week, but brought plenty of red scarves to continue sharing throughout the week.
Went to my sis-in-law's place for a new year gathering today. I made her a pair of lanterns in hot pink and orangey-red. My red Tyger didn't last long - I wilted in the heat

WIN!!Wearing my orange Turandot today. I styled it with navy, in an attempt to make it a bit less orange, foofed it over to one side so that the center blue bit shows more, and applied redder lipstick. I think it's a win.
@bunnycat ... check out the earrings... I think they're a perfect match!

This is so you! congratulations on that find. If it makes you as happy as you look in the photos the money was well invested!Today’s sotd is an automatic grail, meaning I HAD to have it the instant I saw it. I just KNEW that it was destined to be mine - you know that feeling??? It was love, nay, LUST at first sight - a changeant with a strong shift and in a design that satisfies my music-loving heart. I had some drama waiting to receive it (noted in the grail thread) but it did safely arrive into my hot little hands today, whew! Here’s Quintessence in a moussie!
