Sharing my NTM (gotta shorten New To Me as it gets tiresome to write a lot!) Les Capucines since I posted it over in SOTD. After seeing (and seriously falling for) Croisette's Ecume (also Jacquelot, I think) here in this thread, and knowing I was unlikely to ever find anything like it, I kind of "settled" for the viney mass of flowers of this instead. I was worried the yellow would be too "golden harvest" in person (and it is not easy to photograph this yellow) but it is more sunny mustard and so that worked out fine. And then I worried there wasn't enough pattern contrast, and actually, this turns out to be fine with me too once I tried it on. With the very very bright yellow...high contrast would have probably been a "Bad Idea". Moussies surprise me yet again....

Oh no, it's wondeful! Especially with that color lipstick! Makes me want one too... :graucho: Actually, I've always wanted to want Les Capucines, but I could never find one that looked right to me. I think that's because I had never seen it in moussie form!

I know...a lot of scarves have turned like that for me now....When I see one, I'm like "well, I like this, but does it come in mousse?"
