Slender clothing combined with knitted caps is vintage '70s, but so beautiful here.

Good question. I put my usa drivers license and two cc's in it. I didn't try more for it may be hard to get in and out. As the leather softens from use I might put another cc or a metro card or AAA card in it.
I had posted it a few pages earlier (Vive Le Cheval sketchbook was one) but it looks like they are sold out on the US site now. They were under the Office and Writing section,
I'm not sure whether there is a thread comparing these two colors, but from what I've seen, Bleu Pale is much lighter than Bleu Brume. I also think Bleu Pale has gray undertones, whereas Bleu Brume looks to have a bit of purple undertones. Granted, the lighting in this room was not ideal, but Bleu Pale (in Clemence) looked almost white with a very light blue/gray undertone to me.

Thank you very much. Both are beautiful colour. I’m obsessed with blue Brume, blue glacier, blue pale right now
I'm hoping for some insight from the mousseline scarf owners here. I just purchased the Les Becanes scarf 70 in blue multi-color sheer muslin and am concerned that this was a previous return due to the number of thread pulls and snags, or is this normal?
This is my 1st mousseline direct from Hermes so I'm not sure what I should be expecting. My used ones have arrived with small faults and differing feels as to the fineness of the silk and the overall "gauziness." This one is really sheer and fine!!
Is it normal to have occasional nubs and visible pushing apart (not necessarily a snag or pull) of the threads? When I hold this scarf up to the light I see pulls and pushes of the weave which are hard to photograph.
I was really looking forward to this scarf and the opportunity to collect a 70 mousseline in a very pretty colorway. Am I overreacting?
Thank you for your thoughts and suggestions

On Friday of last week I purchased in-store the Les Becanes 70 silk muslin in a very similar (if not the same) colorway – Ciel/Rose/Vert.
Mine has nary a pull, run, or snag in it. If the slubs in yours were limited to what is shown in slides 1, 2, and 3, I would chalk it up to the vagaries inherent in weaving silk and muslin and not worry too much. HOWEVER, slides 4 and 5 show unacceptable runs that are too noticeable to ignore.
If it's convenient for you, I would return this for an exchange.

If it’s brand new and direct from Hermes, I’d expect it to be in as close to perfect condition as possible. This one seems to have a number of odd pulls. It would bother me and if it were me I’d exchange it.
I believe the closest is this thread:
