I think the LdR in the cw you're looking for is still catchable, I have seen it pop up numerous times. Have you had your SA do a worldwide search for it?

BritAbroad - that is the problem. I had a terrible SA who somewhat refused to do a worldwide search. She promised me that she would call me when it came to my store and she never did. She is no longer working at my local boutique so I have started working with someone else who just told me that it is sold out in the US. I will suggest the worldwide search tomorrow.

That's frustrating that your SA didn't try a little harder for you, but the positive is that you have this new SA who might be a little more proactive. Let us know if you get the :tup: on doing a worldwide search tomorrow. If no luck with the new SA doing this for you, you let us know ok.
 
I'm very new to the world of H GM shawls, only acquiring my first one just before Christmas. I love it! :D I only have the 90 silks before but the GM is just so soft and luxurious! I would appreciate your thoughts as I search for my next shawl. I would like a red shawl that would go with my rouge casaque K.

Which of these shawls do you think have a "red" that would work better with the lipstick red RC:

I'm also open to suggestions on other designs that I may not have seen since I only go by what I can find on H.com and some reseller sites. Many TIA!

BritAbroad, that is very sweet of you and also the reason why I love the H forum. I really like that the members here are so supportive of each other. And although I am not a frequent poster, whenever I need help, someone goes out of their way to assist. Hugs!

You're so welcome, perfumegirl... I agree, this is a place of kindred H spirits and I am very thankful for some wonderful tPFers who have helped me find some of my grails.
I love nothing better than to pay it forward and help my fellow silkies find their own unicorns!
 
Love this pique de fleuri GM with red lipstick ~ great suggestion!
yodaling1, thanks for the suggestion! I love the CW, it's so lively. I looked at it on H.com but worry if small prints may overwhelm me? I'm petite (5' 1"). I wonder how it'd look on me. It's awful that my local H boutique rarely has any stock so I can't even see/try things on IRL.

I think it will look great on you with the small print, plus H.com has a great return policy from what I have heard :flowers:

I highly recommend red Instruction du Roy

The red is very elegant and classic! It compliments a variety of skin tones.

I agree with VigeeLeBrun, I don't think the small print on Pique would overwhelm your stature at all, it's very pretty and delicate.
Chestnutty also picked a winner, the red L'instruction du Roy is gorgeous. I have it and it's one of my favorite shawls.
You really can't go wrong with either.... or both :graucho:

Chestnutty and BritAboard, I love the L'instruction du Roy! It's my first, mine is in brown. I have been eyeing the red one too :giggles: but just wondering if I should broaden my horizon. I'm sure there'll be a few more GMs in the future (who am I kidding, a few?:p ).

Now I want something red, bright and springy to chase away the winter blues. While I like the CSMC because I'm attracted to horse designs, I'm wondering if this CW looks more fall/winter-ish because of the blue/navy trim?? Hence the other choices. I'll definitely keep my eye out for the Pique too. Too bad I saw one online just awhile ago but it's gone now.
 
And you're so right, this one is a stunner! Congrats!

What for a fab collex !!! :love:

One of the best neutrals ever!

Beautiful on you! This is the one that originally caught my attention and started me on my H silky road. Maybe one day they will reissue in this color way...just sayin.

Never too late for second chances, this looks fabulous on you, perfumegirl



:heart: Marwari!! :heart: these are absolute beauties!



Can never get enough of this CSMC, lovely, you lucky lady!!!

Thank you all! I feel very very lucky, lol!:p:graucho:

So sorry about your store, I just asked my SM if she could find me a LDR in c/w 15 I this is the brown shade, and she did a worldwide search for me and now one is on its way for me to see, so they are still out there maybe you could ask your SM again.
