Squeezing in at the end of the week, my most loved purchases of 2018 (all longstanding H.G.'s to me) were all acquired due to others simplifying their own collections...thank you.
At bottom left, Premiere Mains (because I come from a family of cavers and my grandmother saw the originals before the caves were closed; I remember having a postcard of some of the images from when she went back again in 70's to see the reproductions), Les Femmes aux Semelles du Vent (because I remember from when I was a young girl said grandmother's trip to Tibet and still have a few mementos that she gave me including a postcard with a similar view of this monastry) and Les Giraffes (which I simply missed in the stores but fell in love with the very first time I saw it here on TPF).
2018 was a trial in many respects but very good to me in terms of H. :smile:

I know I’m twins with cookie on this one (among others!) and she’s got some wonderful mod shots, too.
All stunning on you, I would never have realised it could be so versatile!

Wow, I came onto the site for the first time in ages and am honored to be name checked by the famous Croisette! Glad you were able to find this scarf; I do agree this is the best cw. That is the perfect sweater you've paired it with!
A big hug to you, dear thegriswolds! I'm so happy with it esp. with the white cw.

An actual SOTD today: it cooled down where we are in Bali because it is raining, so I wore my Tropiques (fittingly!) to breakfast

That's perfect for Bali, love the green border, anna!

2018: Year of the Samourai (for me, anyway!)
I started the year with this cw of Samourai - the last one in the entire country, said the SA. I fell hard for that sales tactic. You got me good, H!

Then we collectively went gaga for the csgm! I went for this cw:

I am usually not partial to small prints because they seem to make me look either too old or too young, haha. But somehow this one works for me! Perhaps it’s because it’s in a large format. In any case, I also was drawn to blue/orange combos so I said yes to the dress — er, shawl!

Duuuuuuuude, this one needs no introduction. So happy it’s mine!!! (But strangely, I don’t find myself wearing it much. Need to analyze that...)

Back to the purples! My fave cw of Dancing Pearls became mine this year!! I think it may not have come up on people’s radar because it was advertised as “Sancing Pearls,” haha!

Nuees Imaginaires wasn’t on my radar but this is a cw I couldn’t refuse. DS calls it my “sneezy scarf” because all the little critters look like ... well, like they’ve just sneezed and their spray is in the air... [emoji38]

Like our dear Bunnycat, I was soooo thrilled to add this to my collection! I regretted not getting this when it first came out and dithered over which one to get. By the time I decided, they were all gone!

Despite my frustrated expression, I was/am so happy with this Tyger Tyger! I think it’s my fave csgm. It kept me so warm during a recent trip to France.

Ending the year with another purple, hee hee! A cw of Confessions that I love!

This was a really nice exercise. I’d thought my scarf buying had trickled down to nothing but the proof above says otherwise. What I’ve learned is to buy only what you love, don’t compromise on cws. I’m really really happy with the nine I’ve added in 2018. They’ve all seen a good amount of use and I love how they make me feel when I wear them.

Oh, I did say it was the year of the Samourai, didn’t I? I can’t end the year without bookending it with another one! I paid in 2018 but haven’t received it yet but here’s a shot of me trying it on at H in Paris - can’t wait to wear it in the spring!

Oh my, all of them are fantastic on you, Joanna!

This was my last online purchase of 2018 and my first scarf mail of 2019. Sous Bois in a pretty teal.

Beautiful in soft teal, much better than my orange one,xincinsin.

my most fave purchase (to name just one) was Last Night 100 CSPM, Blue/Red cw
Every time i open the box i fall in love over and over again!
if i can name a few, then Game of Cards (that was a world wide quest!! i found it in Florence finally!)
Acte III with red hem, it was love from the first sight
Awoo dark blue, CSPM, absolutely MY cw (i wore it yesterday)
Most memorable score - Noel in blue, strictly speaking i paid for it in December 2017, but the mail arrived about 6/7th Jan, so it was my 'first in' in 2018, it was with me on my winter trip a couple of weeks ago, i dared wearing it outdoors on the snow! :hbeat:
All so very pretty!

wearing my Memoire Vive for the first time a'la @papertiger
i must say, I LOVE the cotton twil!!!! :woot:
Perfect with your beautiful hair, ksuromax!

My new Space Shopping on its maiden voyage; I changed top mid-morning to go for lunch and it looked a different scarf!
So lovely on you, paula24jen!

So did you match your outfit to your lucky dip scarf, or was it pure coincidence that it matched perfectly?!
Yes!
However, I was wearing a light grey t-shirt, a grey blazer, and black pants (I took the photo of my scarf hung against the back of the blazer). I think any scarf would've matched. :biggrin:

We're twins on this scarf. And it matched both your tops perfectly! Two very beautiful looks, @paula24jen!

All great choices and beautifully styled, as usual! So glad you feel you have zeroed in on the formats and colors that work for you. I can't wait to see how everyone does in 2019 now we are so old and wise, LOL!

Great pix! (We made many of the same choices.)

I tried venturing into the world of 140s, starting with silk

What have I learned?

... I like scarves. I wear one almost every day. I would rather have a great scarf than additional shoes that I don't wear, clothes I don't need, or jewelry that just gets shoved in a drawer. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of researching, buying, and wearing scarves.

But, I also think that I am nearing a critical mass. There aren't many more that I can fit in my drawers and I think I have a scarf for nearly every occasion. There are still some gaps I need to fill (particularly for spring and summer), but I feel like a hungry person who gobbles half the meal before being able to take a deep breath and slow down. I can now take my time and enjoy the rest of the process. It really is fun!
I love your collages - thanks for taking the time to make them - and your reasoning. It's always fun to follow other people's journeys because we are all so similar. So take a breath now. It won't be long before you (1) get a bigger scarf drawer (2) fall in love with other designs here on tPF (3) explore other formats (4) realize that fall winter stuff will be in the boutiques in June. :biggrin:

Well done! These are all very special. And thanks for sharing your personal connections. It's such fun to read about.
