Thank you so much, everyone. It’s been helpful to lurk here periodically, and even if I didn’t comment at the time, I’ve appreciated seeing everyone’s posts. You all have unknowingly helped me come out of the shell shock. What we’ve been going through cannot be believed - three suicides in three months! and if that wasn’t enough, the man who raped a family member got off scot free at trial. There’s more, but honestly, Ive been rather numb. Needless to say, we are feeling rather Job-like. I can’t talk about a lot of this stuff in social media for fear that it’ll hurt the other people involved. But grief is miserable work. I can’t take it anymore. I need to be my cheerful self again, and if scarves are what’ll help me get there, then so be it. To that end, I have a moussie on its way to me, hopefully tomorrow. The pup has been a huge help, too. We got him as an emotional support dog for my DS after my stepson died. DS has had problems that ramped up after his brother’s death. DH and I are so grateful for the dog, he’s been good for our family.
Here he is:


Sorry to derail the thread. Back to topic, I went to H to see if they had anything new but no, nothing from AW yet. So I tried on two cws of Sieste... and two of Animapolis. Oh dear, those photos are in my other phone. I’ll post them soon... BRB!

I follow you on IG so I was aware of some of this but I didn't realize just how much you've been through lately. Sending hugs and love your way....

Oh, I’m afraid I’ve been a little too vague - I lost all interest in scarves (and in life in general) when my stepson died in March, so it’s not so much a curation journey as it’s been a grief journey. Coming across a couple of grails has helped me to cope and bring me back to the land of the living. Animapolis made me smile the other day in the boutique so I knew it was one I need in my collection. Just have to wait a bit - finances are tighter than usual. (Who knew death was more expensive than living?) Plus we got a puppy. Luckily, he shows no interest in H scarves... So far.

I am so very sorry to read this Joannadyne. Even though we are a group of people who (in the main) would not know each other if we passed on the street, on here we are all friends. My heart hurts for you as it would for any other of my friends who had to endure such a terrible loss. You and your family are very much in my thoughts.

What a beautiful pup. I am sure he will help you all smile with his mischief and boundless love.

Now that my love of scarves has returned in full force, I think I’ve finally decided what I want from this season. It’s been an odd journey - what I thought I would absolutely love I ended up being indifferent to (Pivoines) and what I thought was a little too crazy and busy for me wound up making me smile even months later (Animapolis). So with my next paycheck, I’ll head over to H and hope cw 01 in Animapolis is still available!

I feel the same way about Animapolis!

I am truly truly sorry to hear that! my heart goes out to you and your family!

The second one! It could be the lighting, or your hair colour mirroring the colour of the tree trunks, or that pretty yellow against your lavander top, I have to say I like that scarf on you.

was thinking the same!

My scarf of the day is Pivoines!
To be honest while I think this is the most achingly beautiful scarf, I bought it months ago and this is the first time I wear it. It's a PITA to tie in a way that displays my favorite parts of the scarf, i.e. those pencil drawings of that fantasy city. I keep ending up with the flowers on display. Those are nice and everything but not that special IMO.
Doesn't help that the back of the scarf is completely white.
Plus I have general problems with 90 squares... always feel that my style is too casual to pull them off without looking like I'm trying to play dress up.

Wow! That is really beautiful on you! I have seen it on display and thought it was not for me at all, but you are the first person I have seen wearing it and it is stunning inaction...Good call!

I so agree...it’s really a special one for you!

I know it's June, but I hadn't yet purchased a SS19 scarf, so earlier this week I finally gave my SA a list of the scarves I was interested in. I went in today to talk with him about it, and don't you know, all of the designs I'd been waiting to see that hadn't been showing up in my store were finally there! However, while I did come home with a couple things, I ended up quite disappointed. My favorite design from this season, l'Esprit de la Foret, is a bust for me. None of the cws look right. I know that sounds crazy, but I tried on 4 today alone and none of them popped. The other scarf I was looking for, les Pivoines, was also finally there in the cw I thought I wanted, that bronzy/champagny gold cw. Unfortunately, it looked awful on me. And last but not least, they finally had Paisley CSGMs! There were 3 cws, and two of those did look good, but I decided to wait on that one. In the long run, this visit was easier on my wallet than I had anticipated, but I'm still a little disappointed that I didn't come home with a l'Esprit or Pivoines. I remind myself that there will be others, though, and certainly AW19 is looking promising.
Thanks for letting me vent a little!

I am so sorry to hear the colours didn’t work for you. I have actually had this thought these last few weeks as I am getting closer to seeing S/S scarves IRL at my local store very soon. Gosh the bronze/champagne pivones is on my list along with a wash Carre. Bummer that the colours haven’t worked out for you. Luckily the next season is out and mountain zebra seems to have some amazing colourways!!

Thank you! First world problems, I know. I'll get over it soon enough lol. And you're right, the next season is looking good (I have my eye on one of those Mountain Zebras...). Good luck to you - I hope you come home with something you love from SS19!

[And I just edited my previous post - SS18! - guess I'm still stuck in last year )

Oh, @Joannadyne, I am so sorry to hear of such losses all piling up on you at once. Scarves are comforting. I know this from personal experience. I hope all these losses at once means that you are getting set to have a good long break, that you're over the hump so to speak. The adorable puppy would help anyone.

 

[eagle1002us]

This was my favorite CW of Animapolis. That bright yellow hem especially is so cheerful! I bought this CW and framed it. It now hangs in my hallway and makes me smile every time I pass by it Looks great on you!

Is that cw 11 you're talking about? I have that one. Good decision to frame it. Now you can enjoy it every day regardless of your [matching or no] outfit.

Dearest Joannadyne, you have my sincerest sympathy. Like many members have already said, I am felling with you and send you energy and hugs, silky hugs! For us (crazy) scarfies, silks are more than just scarfs or just silk... they take us to “other places” and make us dream, wonder, smile! Over the years I have noticed than when life gets really serious, I loose this fervent interest in H silks... after a while it comes back and it makes me realize how fortunate and privileged we are to be able to follow such a passion... when I joined this forum years back I used to post very often in many different threads... over the years the amount of my posts have dropped a lot, but I always kept monitoring my favorite threads. Since you started posting a few seasons ago, your posting have always been the highlight of the day. I could feel your positive energy and good mood and you always made me smile, not only because of your wit but also because of your own contagious smile in your beautiful pics. I sincerely hope you come back to your positive- wonderful- self and if Silks help to achieve this, hey, why not! Like we say around here “Kopf hoch!” (Head high) it will show your beautiful silk(s) better... and your gorgeous smile. Silky hugs, P.

Not sure of the number of the cw but here it is framed! (Unfortunately it hangs in a spot where the lighting and the narrow space make it difficult to get a good picture)
