So pretty loves!
if it helps (?!:smile1:), here are some photos of my new wonderful 08, with 3 different backgrounds--a beige/tan dress, a pink top and a light blue top. i haven't photographed them together yet, but it was fun this afternoon to compare my 06 with the 08. I really like them both, though the colors do different things. One of the things I so like about the 08 is the light blue of the waves. It speaks summer and Hawaii to me (wish wish wish).
Thanks for the pictures! It looks great with all three colour! Of course you had to have it:p
 
La Vie en Rose - this is so pretty against your various pastel colored tops. I love it with the beige and light pink but really they are all gorgeous. I have color 01 and often take it out just to look at it - it's so cheerful.

Thank you! That's fun to hear--I do the same with both the 06 and 08--take out to just enjoy looking at the colors and design. It's like smelling fresh basil or lavender.

Do you think this scarf will still be available in Paris in June when I arrive? Or should I grab one now?

The twill scarf is last season so if you see a colorway you like, you should grab it. You still may be able to get one in Paris but don't count on it. I have noticed that most of the stores that I have visited in the US lately still have a couple of c/w's, but that doesn't mean that Paris will. Worst case scenario, you end up with 2!!!!Good luck and show us what you get:graucho:
 
Yay! I'm your twin. I just got 01 on Monday, and love it! :ghi5:
After months of scarf abstinence I have succumbed to ELEK fever. I have a 90cm in cw 08 on hold and will pick it up this weekend.
This are 2 action shots of my ELetK silk twill carre, #5, lavande, please enjoy everybody,

I have kinda joined the club.... basically DH walked in last night with a surprise present for me - the GM shawl in colorway 3. He was so excited - but I really wanted colorway 5 (which was sold out). DH thought that since the waves of both scarves were blue, they were close enough but in reality - they give a different vibe. Colorway 3 is much more colorful, while colorway 5 more subdued. Don't know what to do - thinking of bringing it to the shop for an exchange if they will let me, but don't want to hurt DH's feelings.
