Scarves Scarf Of The Day 2020 - Which Hermès scarf are you wearing today?

[papertiger]

My very best wishes to everyone for the New Year to all SOTD regulars, occasional posters and newcomers alike .

The SOTD 2021 thread is now open and ready for business:

Scarves - Scarf of the Day 2021 - Which Hermès scarf are you wearing today?

continued from here THEME WEEKS for 2021 from TEAM SCARF MISTRESS Just for fun, each Sunday begins a new Theme Week. This year, we have some real treats in store! We have a full complement of scarf mistresses and GSMs for 2021 and I want to give a quick shout out and thank you to my fellow...

forum.purseblog.com

The new theme commences tomorrow (3 Jan - whenever your time zone gets there) but there's no reason why you can't post earlier if you want.

Today's purple is the prune of C'est la Fete. Cozy for this snowy, meeting-free morning.View attachment 4929640

A sporty look ... nice!

Over forty years ago I was a college student spending a semester abroad studying in Vienna. Several nights a week I would head over to either the Staatsoper or Volksoper to get a cheap standing room ticket for that night’s opera. I’m positive that I have seen at least 6 of the 8 operas listed in my SOTD, Fleurs de L’Opera, and who knows, maybe all of them. I figured this was a unique opportunity to get an education in opera, something that was missing from my upbringing in the rural Midwestern United States. My most memorable treat was seeing Wagner’s entire Der Ring des Nibelungen over a four week period.

I have been wanting a beautiful purple scarf since I began collecting Hermes scarves, which is why I finally decided on this colorway for Fleurs de L’Opera. I’m delighted to debut it here during Purple Week.

Hold on, you saw the Ring standing up?!!! Man. We went to see Parsifal at the Met a couple years ago, and that was 5.5 hours long. We had nice seats, and I still struggled to stay awake / stay through the entire opera -- and I am a huge opera buff.

Nice scarf by the way I don't own that one, even though that is surprising to many -- just never found the CW that speaks to me.

Ha, you and I have very different definitions of 'sporty'

Keeping your memories of Vienna ... so pretty, RBH!

Do you really expect the masks for whole 2021 ... oh my what future prospects.

I know this is not exactly on topic, but I do think we will be wearing masks for a while... I do wonder if the dedicated theme will be too depressing though.

What a fun mystery week! I’m yet again needing to scroll back to the past weeks theme. End of year work has been mind boggling. Why does everyone wait until nearly Christmas to close out projects or start new ones?

I love purple but only recently started wearing them again. I think I was in a mostly pastel brights mode until the turn of events this year led me to deeper introspection. And I am loving the mysteries of blue violet purples.

New to me mousseline Dans un Jardin Anglais ( twins with a few of you). This was my grail colorway that I hunted for several years since only one came into our boutique. It now joins my coral one from Istanbul. Also the ever popular Mythiques design in a tattoo version.

Happy purple week, more to come!

That is a beautiful mousseline -- I have been looking for some myself. Looks fantastic on you.

I'm late looking at these posts, Tout en Quilt?

That's what it was!

Agree, you're right Anna.

Agree, you're right Anna.

I do like the idea of matching scarves to masks, and I do that myself. I may be posting more of those myself

Will one of our themes next year be pairing a scarf with a face mask? Because I have been doing this consciously and I imagine others have also.

DH had a new refrain: How many masks do you need? (He uses basic black) (I had to hide my newest mask with Pikachu on it)

All of these are great, but that Ballet is so lovely! And I love your (tanzanite?) pendant with it.

thank you! And yes, tanzanite.

Royally loved this week’s launch!
I find purple carres rarely and will truly appreciate seeing everyone’s treasures.


Sublime (especially your PdS)


These look gorgeous together


Love & looking forward to seeing the rest... as far as taking a scarf b’room break- alls fair in love & scarves


I’m a total fan of monochrome looks & you know I just ADORE that horse snoot peeping out!


Stunners!


Color theory is soooo interesting! I truly appreciate your insight & shared info.

thank you!

What a special story!

Showing off my moody little DUJA on this rainy morning. I wanted to take a photo in better lighting, but couldn’t resist taking her out of the box to play after I saw Lanit’s stunning moussie. This scarf was a grail for me and I was happy to find her in good used condition for a fair price. The purples are beautiful. While the outside border is a true red, the inside is more burgundy/deep crimson. This is a much better color for me, so I prefer to highlight the middle of the scarf. The purples are, of course, beautiful! I hope one day the DUJA is reissued.... maybe someone from H is reading this

Thank you, Anna. As I recall, the Staatsoper has three or four tiered rows of standing room in the back. If you were lucky enough to get in one of the front tiers you could sit down once the house lights were lowered. The guards almost always looked the other way. The tickets were sold well before the opera began, so the custom was to tie a scarf to the railing to reserve your spot and head out for a meal before the start of the show.
