So, on Saturday I “did a thing”, as our dear @bunnycat would say. Two things in fact. Like others here, I have been obsessing about Vallee since the very first sneak preview pics at the end of June. This was the one silk this season that was a ‘must have’ for me and, like @DrTr, I knew that the 01 pink and purple confection was the one for me. These colours are right in my wheelhouse (purple has always been my favourite colour), and the colourway overall is just so perfect for the 80’s iconography that it was impossible to resist.

I put my name down months ago and got the call last week. Made the trip in on Saturday to pick up - SO excited! My lovely SA had put aside both colourways they received for me - 01 and 02 (already modelled beautifully by our dear @Ladybaga). When I got there, I tried the purple, which was instant love: DH and lovely SA agreed! My surprise was that they had just received, and put on hold for me, the green 06. I have very little green in my wardrobe and my SA knows it’s not something I gravitate towards. She said the moment she saw it, she knew it would be perfect for me as it matched my eyes. I was worried this would be too grassy green, based on the web pictures, but it has gorgeous blue and turquoise tones that make it a surprisingly stunning silk. And yes, she was right. DH insisted this one come home with us too.

Okay, I’ve rambled on enough in my excitement and we’ve had lots of great pics and thoughts shared already, so I’ll just get to it. Both of these will be put aside for future gifts, but I was able to take some quick mod shots today to share with our wonderful community here. Hopefully, they help with some decisions, as so many of you have helped me. And, without trying to convince anyone, I am home, was wearing jeans and a simple white sweater, and these were quick throw-ons with no effort made to style them. I love bright colours and contrasts, and this really is a ”throw and go”, wear-anywhere prospect for me. I cannot say enough how much I ADORE these!





One last thought for anyone who is worried about the brightness of the colour: it’s a very saturated scarf, and the reverse side is actually a very convincing softer version of the design. An ”unintentional double-face” as it were (apologies to whoever coined this descriptor, it is escaping me in this moment and the credit should go to that person). Both sides are lovely. I’ve captured a couple of pics to show this below.

I am fighting the urge to join you both on this one. I need another CSGM like I need a root canal….. but I don’t have a 2 color simple beautiful camel/beige.
Beautiful on each of you!

This joke lands well for me as an orthodontist 😂 I am loving this scarf it’s soft and muted. The black is still quite tempting but I have no regrets picking this color; goes well with so much more than you’d think

Love the storyline and photos. You look fabulous in both, so glad they went home! Twins on both! 🦄

Just wanted to share a few mod shots of the Claire de Lune in CW07 Noir/Blanc. It is a stunner. I was initially concerned whether black and white combo will fit in with my already predominantly black and white wardrobe - but it looks chic and classy. It has a lovely balance of both colors and plenty of white in the middle close to the face
And huge gratitude to @LKBNOLA for wise styling suggestions and generous input!

This is LOVELY on you @Ashanti_Rose. This shawl is destined to be a classic 😍

I say go for it, you won’t regret it. I have a feeling that this one will be a classic. So easy to be styled with a variety of outfits. I have not yet achieved ‘scarf peace’ IF such a thing exists

Both are so pretty for you and what a fun trip to the boutique this must have been.

 

[GloWW0rM]

Uggggg this is my dilemma! Yes, RedBird looks very beautiful and elegant with how she styled it. I’m beginning to think this scarf would be perfect for someone else. Kind of how I might like a piece of house decor in someone else’s house, just not mine.

It reminds me of the time I bought a gold Chanel mini and never wore it because it felt too flashy and just not me and who I am today.

I don’t ever wear color or pattern, strictly neutrals and that’s why I like having some color in a scarf, but I think at this point in my life I don’t want pretty things to look at. I need it to be functional and I don’t know that La Vallee will provide what I need from it, which is a feeling of ease and effortlessness rather than conflicting thoughts on if it’s too “look at me”. I think my inner child adores the design, and colorway!! But the practical me is trying to tell myself that I won’t actually wear it and will second guess myself each time I try it on. On the other hand another part of me wonders if my lifestyle (and taste) might change again in the coming years and decades to where I might regret and think about it as the scarf that got away. By golly I’m stuck in indecision!!

Agreed that from the photos you’ve shared, contract suits your complexion well so it comes down to preferences and occasions to wear it, as you say. I’d be tempted buy it and then sell it down the line if you end up not wearing it…? If it ever comes to the UK, I’ll be getting the pink/ purple and green. Though with me it’s a bit different - I don’t wear neutrals and am often in something bright and high contrast so I am a bit more comfortable that I’ll reach for them.

Have you thought of the blue/ parme cw? It seems less loud but still do beautiful. Good luck with your decision!

 

[GloWW0rM]

In case this helps with any decisions, here's another mod shot of La Vallée de Cristal cw 01. 🦄 It was meant to be a throw on and go (or stay at home) for me also, just like several other scarfies, so super excited that that is the case!

[Edit] Forgive the stray hair - it literally was thrown on!

Love it!! The mod shots are always so helpful. Still waiting over here and starting to get a bit stroppy!

Oh yes, the wait becomes a bit annoying, and all those stunning mod shots make me want to order all of them

Very very pretty and so inspiring for me to try new knots too! Thank you and enjoy your scarves, they are stunning on you!

 

[GloWW0rM]

Both are stunning @Lellabelle! Thank you for the numerous ties. Congratulations on these beauties.

Wowza @Lellabelle! Loved your story, and you look absolutely stunning in both cw’s!! Isn’t the pink/blue/purple amazing? We share a favorite color in purple. And all your ties are very helpful - thanks, that’s lots of work to tie and photograph!

The green is amazing on you as well!! It’s almost as if its an entirely different print, but it looks so rich in another way. I’m stunned and like you I’m not usually drawn to green. Hmmm. Another cw to ponder.

How exciting! I laughed when you said they will be put away for gifts, my Valle is supposed to be for Christmas, but I can’t bring myself to hand it over When the bleu cw came up and I ordered, I thought ”well the bleu will be for Christmas”. Then they cancelled it! What now!

Its great fun to share this sugary treat from Ugo with everyone - thanks again for all your pics and enjoy!!

What a great word - stroppy! Sorry you are having to wait so long!!

Sorry, but there should not be so much pain involved in buying a scarf. How long have you been collecting? Do you have more than 100 scarves in your collection? Scarves come and go. None of the contemporary scarves are going to become impossible-to-find grails, so I wouldn't worry either way. You buy it and decide to rehome it later. You don't buy it, you want it later, and you find it. I hope you feel better!

Along with my new Wow marble silk, my scarf mail included a second colorway of La Vallee de Crystal. I decided to throw it on and go.

View attachment 5889314

I love this colorway even more than the green. Raspberry pink/purple is my sweet spot.

Perfect color top !
