Ladies and gents that live in Los Angeles - does it get cold enough there to wear your GM cashmere/silk shawls? I might be moving there soon and I am debating whether or not I should return for credit a new one I just bought or exchange it for a mousseline?

Yes it's cold
Not like the Midwest or Eastern Seaboard but it not as warm as the TV shows make you think it might be
GMs are great for LA

Oh..... These photos are heart wrenching and beautiful.... And that is why like a lemming every season I line up for some GM or let's be honest gms, price increase or no.

Every season I say to myself that I have enough of GM for the rest of my life....
and nothing better that what I have will tempt me... every single time...
and I try to believe in this!!!

Gorgeous and stunning bag! I saw this shawl at FSH but they did not have many...maybe they have in drawers too but I wasn´t looking for any more GMs:p

Let me think about it. I still think I can do it myself. I remove tags from clothes all the time but with H silk or cashmere, it's too precious to me. You never know whether you would be able to find a replacement or not should anything goes wrong.

Beautiful GMs!

Congrats Twins!
This is my 2nd CCaP GM. I let this colorway slipped away in the airport 3 mths ago as DH chose the white/green Mars shawl (which I adore) over this, I was trying to be a good wife practicing restraints (hv now realized resistance was futile since I bought not 1 but 3 more GMs after that)! So glad to find it on H.com pre-price increase.

I grew up in LA. IMO, I would suggest GM's are infinitely useful as shawls but too bulky and warm to use as scarves in winter. And in LA, the more colorful, the better!

Actually, mous is not that popular here and BH stopped carrying it for a while; SCP buys it but does not seem to sell as well as other GMs. C/S FLIES out the door- it is very popular in LA and Orange County. A lot of tourists in addition to regular customers buy the shawls I have been told.


To more specifically answer your question-yes, it does get cold enough in the Fall and Winter for them and chilly in the evenings during warmer months. Plus, they are great to keep on hand inside buildings during the summer when you have no control over the AC.

MYH, I am in Los Angeles every few months for an extended stay with my DD and I wear my GMs all the time! Especially at night or indoors because of the AC.

Ladies - thank you SO much for your response to my question. I am very happy to hear the GM shawls in my wardrobe can stay! :yahoo::yahoo: I was worried they would not be used with the hot weather in LA. I will keep the one I just bought.

I live in SoCal and actually prefer the shawls. I wear them often in place of a jacket, they are easy to throw in a bag and put on when you go inside, and the A/C is blasting. Depending on where you are moving from you may feel it is too warm to wear the shawl but after you have been here awhile you will think they are perfect.
