Happy New Year Scarfies! [emoji173]️

Oh, I remember when you first posted the La Rosée and Tourbillons and I literally gasped and zoomed in... Magnificent! And I like your thinking on devising the brilliant H-Math formula... LOL! I’m so sorry about your cold... please take care and feel better soon... my DH is also a Twilight Zone Marathoner round here

 

[bobkat1991]

Lovely! I can’t wait to see what else you have gotten this year bobkat!!

Thank you for your compliment, dear Julide!

Like fifi said, there are so many ways to go this week on favorite purchases.

I started out 2018 with the resolution to locate some of my personal "grails" and 2018 delivered and then some with several favorites and more than just a few grail searches...(my wallet is still recovering... ) So I guess I'll start with january of 2018 and just make my way through the year over the course of the week. (I'm actually having to consult my scarf purchase files to do this there were so many things this past year... )

After finishing off 2017 right (Parures de Samourais for Xmas) and right after buying Jaguar Quetzal CW 01 the day it came out on h dot com, January-February dropped a long sought after scarf right at my feet....I had searched for a Tigre Royal for some time and to find it not only in my preferred colorway (purple/gold), but also in the preferred format (70cm) was a real bonus!

View attachment 4292059

This was followed shortly after by a drive by purchase (at H-matic) of a scarf I didn't expect to find... Sieste au Paradis also in purple/pink....

View attachment 4292061

and (seriously???!!) the week after that one was Bains d'Hermes. Honestly one of my best purchases of 2018. Easy to wear, always looks fresh, colorful, and a really fabulous format....This is probably my most worn scarf of the year.

View attachment 4292067

That Bains d'Hermes! That just always looks so lucious on you, bunnycat!

Congrats! Tohu Bohu is indeed a glorious Grail! Personally one of my favorite designs of all time. I wear mine soooo much! This CW is so fresh and beautiful! And I love it with the scarf ring... Well done, DH, well done...




Thank you so much for your lovely and much treasured compliments, dear!




To me L’Instruction is hands down one of the most sumptuous and elegant Hermès designs ever! And this luscious green is fantastic!


I just love this post because of the beauties presented and also because of its chronological order! They are all spectacular, but the SaP of which I am your twin, is probably my fav. It’s such a delight to tie and suits you perfectly! The Bains d’Hermes in this CW is fantastic! Is this a moussie... Looks so fresh and airy!

Thank you so much, Fifi! Olive green seems to love my complexion.....

I love this one!!

Thank you, momasaurus! I think of you as a dear friend, you know?

You are a genius, Fifi. I don’t know what I did but look how it came out! Off to celebrate the end of the year with a dear tPF friend.

This whole ensemble is divine, momasaurus! Now I need to try this new knot....what size scarf ring did you use?

You look wonderful in all of these, but that Toubillons! I may well faint (now WHO did I last loan that fainting couch to??!!)

 

[bobkat1991]

My next favorite for this year is a VERY sentimental choice. Back in I think 2006/7, my oldest granddaughter Justine, had a wonderful woldog. Maska was about 85% wolf and just really affectionate with the whole extended family. He ran away in late November 2010. They lived on a farm...didn't have a fenced yard. In mid December 2010 my DIL found his body under a backyard shed. He had been hit by a car.

In September 2011, my granddaughter Justine was involved in a fatal auto accident.

So.......in remembrance of Justine and her Maska, I purchased Awoo.

Wishing everyone a wonderful and Happy New Year or Hogmanay from Scotland.

Thank you to scarf mistresses for their hard work and dedication and each and every one of you, contributors to this thread. Thank you also to my shopping accomplices.

I ended up with 3 Act IIIs this season as well as other new scarves that were more atypical and pushed my boundaries as well as a very meaningful, vintage gift. I have no concept of which new to me scarves came this year or last, silk is a slippery thing but they've all earned their place.

Waving 2018 goodbye and embracing 2019 with one of my favourite scarves bought this year but belonging more to next.

Gotta keep everything in Perspectives, a site specific scarf for all occasions and all places.

Per our recent discussion on this thread about my very special Miami boutique edition of Flamingo Party, here are some shots of my three FP CWs as comparison for whoever is interested. The white was my first because I was initially seeking a more neutral CW with bright touches. Then, I became obsessed with the flamingoes in pink and found it in the cyclamen CW. Plus the oranges were orange which was something else I was looking for. I heard about the special Miami edition but never pursued it and realized my loss (pink flamingoes!!) when it was too late. Then, my SA mentioned in August as I was shopping for Baobab Cat that there was a special scarf in the back that had recently surfaced since it had somehow gotten reshuffled and filed away. When he brought it out I gasped... What?!?!?! But since I already had 2 CWs and didn’t want to duplicate if they were too similar, I had him hold it for me to think about it. Needless to say, I’m so glad that I didn’t pass on it!

Here is a group shot of all three CWs

This was my first FP CW which I considered to be a bit more neutral/toned down with pops of color

And this was the one I love with the pink flamingoes and orange oranges.

Thanks for showing these! I actually love the fact that there is no orange in the Miami edition!

[bunnycat]

It's been an amazing year! Happy New year to everyone!

Really love those fuschias on you! That Tigre is really special.

Thank you essiedub! It is!

Thanking all the scarf mistresses and new scarf mistresses for keeping this thread so active and fun! It’s been a challenging year for my work and health, but I’ve much to be grateful for. I purchased most of my silks in spring (as usual), and also landed a grail or two in the process. Sending everyone warm wishes for the coming year. This thread remains my favorite to cheer and inspire me. Brava for the great work and posts!

Finally Samourai CSGM arrived after waiting nearly 9 months...

Your selections are always so stunning lanit! (Della Can...so awesome in purple!)

thank you both, Ladies!
my friend is staying with us, so she could gime me a side feedback, she says it's not ME, but it's too darn great to let go. So, she is of no help
here's an open view

I like the purple too, esp with you hair, but as lanit said- try it on a different outfit. I think you may like it better that way.

This year, I picked up quite a few oldies like the nameless scarf I showed last week. And I thought I'd completed collecting all the phoenixes I wanted - oh well, the best laid plans of mice and men...


And then, I actually found the blue-green cw! Luckily, before I hurled my bank book at it, I found this other cw which I think is more me.
View attachment 4292639

Oh so jealous pf you splendid ecume!

Looking back on 2018:

So much for “one in, one out” – I added 25 scarves to my collection and let go of 16. Some purchases were to replace a less useful CW of a design with a better one, like Elegance et Confort.

Some purchases were just making up for neglect in earlier seasons. We’ve all been there, right? I bought a 70 Savannah Dance and a 70 Ballet aquatique. Both are designs I loved but somehow just never got around to buying in season.

Some favorite additions from 2018:

From the boutique: 140 twill Caleche, Mors et Bouteilles. I love the size and the colors!

Act III because theater.

Sun and fun gavroche in springy colors that are so cheerful!

From resellers: Sportsmen. I love the design but I really need this in another CW. I think there is one with navy border.

Petit duc – I love the tangerine colors!

On a summer day 90 in graphite, blues and rose. It’s very similar to the 140 from this year and I love it.

I love the cheery colors in the Petit Duc!

Beautiful fifi!

While I bought a lot of scarves this year (for me), I have been very happy with all but one....which I like a lot but haven't worn all that much. The others have all gotten a lot of use.

I'm so glad you finally went for your JQ HoneyLocks!

I'm loving my new scarf, yesterday I wore the same style for two different looks. I tied it cowboy style with the tails tied in a small knot behind my neck. In the morning I wore it with a casual top and later tucked it into a cowl neck sweater for an evening out.View attachment 4292833 View attachment 4292835

Fabulous I4H- wonderfully cozy tying!

Thank you for your kind encouragement .... here is a mod shot from the SS2019 thread in that case

[scarf1]

happy New Year everyone!
Reflecting on 2018 - I purchased quite a few items, but less than in previous years. Right now I am pretty satisfied with what I have, and plan to buy even less in 2019.

This year I focused on mousselines- mainly moussie stoles as that is my favorite format. ( will feature in another post)
And also CSGM.
I love the Samurais design, and immediately fell for the BLUE CWs ( duh!), but they were never available when I went to my local H. Finally in May I found the caban/ salmon one in NYC, and later the Blue/ grey one in London.

Then, in September I bought my first men’s CS 100- Awooo! Fell in love as soon as I put it on. This is probably MVP as I have already worn it often, I find the lesser amount of fabric really easy, and perfect for California climate. Plus the colors in this go with nearly everything in my closet.

 

[I4H]

It looks terrific on you!

Thank you so much ElainePG, being new to H silks, I can definitely tell the difference when I tie them on!

 

[Living.la.vida.fifi]

fifi, we do so love having you with us xxx

What a lovely thing to say... Thank you so much!

My next favorite for this year is a VERY sentimental choice. Back in I think 2006/7, my oldest granddaughter Justine, had a wonderful woldog. Maska was about 85% wolf and just really affectionate with the whole extended family. He ran away in late November 2010. They lived on a farm...didn't have a fenced yard. In mid December 2010 my DIL found his body under a backyard shed. He had been hit by a car.

My dear @bobkat1991, my heart goes out to you. So heartbreaking! Yet, you manage to find peace and beauty through it all... Such a meaningful tribute with your beautiful Awoo!
