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

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



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.
 
20 Dec 2020: Yuletide Spirit... Break out your festive scarves!

Happy Fourth Sunday of Advent, (also known as the Sunday before Christmas) my dear SOTD friends!

Many of us have been enjoying these glorious days of Advent and also looking forward to the Christmas festivities. And, yet others celebrate Hanukkah, Rohatsu, Kwanzaa or Yule... Of course, for our little community, that always means donning our silks of the season. I know I’ve been wearing mine, along with my holiday brooches, on repeat for the past three weeks.

Not only do I love wearing my holiday-themed scarves during these festive days, but also my winter-themed designs, as well as those scarves in colorways appropriate for the season, no matter the theme... and, those silks that are just plain festive...

We are coming to the end of a strange and challenging year, yet SOTD has remained a bright spot of solace and fellowship throughout. This week, let us relax, enjoy each other’s company and find joy in our beloved Silks of the Season and other Festive Scarves.

I shall begin with probably the most iconic of all of Hermès’ Christmas designs: Noël au Faubourg 24. I own this Grail in two CWs, and will begin with my pink, which is perfect to wear during Advent, since pink and purple are the traditional colors of the season. Last Sunday, the pink candle of the Advent wreath was lit, and tonight we light yet another purple candle. This is the scarf I will wear to our church services this evening.

I follow with a winter-themed beauty: Joies d’Hiver, which is another quintessential Hermès winter and holiday classic.

And, even though this design is neither Christmasy nor precisely winter-themed, I relate its colors and vibe with the holidays... It must be that vibrant red background; and those golden trumpets, lyres and pipes; and the Commedia dell’Arte figures that evoke a toyland theme; and the old world village scene. Somehow I associate it with Christmas and love to wear it at this time of year.

And, also for the fun of it, I am also going to show a few of my Christmas jewelry this week and encourage everyone to do the same. So, here is one of my huge Larry Vrba bejeweled Christmas tree brooches... These showstopping pins are among my favorite Christmas accessories, along with my Hermès scarves, of course!

So many furry darlings this week inspired me to show this festive Lea Stein cutie... And, on that subject, our darling animal children always steal the show around here, so perhaps we will see a few more... Methinks I will have my three furry children make an appearance as well...

I am looking forward to spending this special week with all of my dear SOTD friends and know we will spread the joy of all of our festive scarves. Let us share the glad tidings and enjoy the silken cheer.
Your CW of Orgauphone is great! I also have a few scarves that say "Holiday season" to me, although not particularly themed that way.
 
Thanks Awillow! I know you got the orange one earlier this year. Both are very pretty. In the spring summer 21 pics I have to steer myself away from swinging at germain in the brown tones. Are you picking up any cws of swinging?
Hi Foxy. I have the green swinging, but I think I will get the black and white - love that red hem! I am thinking about the monsieur you just picked up. It looks great on you!! I do love my orange one. :)
 
Thank you! Let’s hope the next re-issue will have a red version :smile:


Thanks! Do you ever FaceTime your SA? I have been doing all my shopping that way!



Thanks! I actually got a shockingly good price for it. Got it from Russia — I think what is popular here is not always popular there, and vice verse.



That’s so unfortunate... I know the USPS has had major issues this year driven by the administration, but it is indeed so frustrating.



Thank you!



You look appropriately winterized! Is there snow on the ground?



Thank you! I think the red Flyers d’Opera exists, but I haven’t gotten lucky yet.



I think most people who come through the door at Hermes are looking for one of the quota bags. SAs must feel refreshed when someone is actually genuinely interested in something else.

I don’t know what VIP status really is — an ability to buy more bags? More expensive bags?

I am not really a bag person. I do enjoy good craftsmanship and I have acquired a fair number of Hermes bags over the years (I am also that person who is always offered quota bags — I think the SAs can sense I am not there for one; over the years I have been seduced by a few bags I love using). What makes me sad though is that when I see stories of people buying scarves or small leather goods just to be offered a quota bag. I feel like that is such a waste of a quality item.



Wow, you sure know how to get enabled!



Lovely match on you!



Thank you.



Purple and green look so good together!



Lovely! Love the purple coat and the purple lipstick.
Hi Anna! I have facetimed once with my SA during the pandemic and been into the boutique a few times since they reopened in late summer. (They are closed right now due to a workplace exposure.) She has been great!

I am not sure exactly what vip status entails either - I just know I don't qualify! I imagine being invited to events, and I think there are occasional gifts.

I work to support my habit as it is, so I don't see bags in my future! As my sa says, scarves are my thing, so that is okay by me. I feel unbelievably fortunate to have been able to acquire the collection I have.

Btw, you enabled my red and white l'ivresse. I love it!

I am your CP twin and I find it so hard to pair with anything in my wardrobe, which I regret because it’s such an amazing design and the colors are so lovely! I actually love your looks here. Do you always wear it with these neutrals or have you found any other colors that go well with it?
Fifi - I love being your twin! I do usually wear it with neutrals, occasionally a white shirt and navy sweater (which is also neutral, but more of a contrast.)

These are all gorgeous, fifi! Zavabushka is a design that has only hit my radar because of the posts here over the last few weeks. Lovely!!

Lovely intro, fifi! I will have to do some deep thinking to be on theme this week. Only two or three spring to mind.

I adore your Noel scarf. I sometimes think about this one or Fleurs d'Hiver. I would love to pick one up, but I haven't made the commitment to buying another scarf that seems less likely to be one that I can wear year round. You are tempting me ;)

I adore your holiday brooches!!! Gorgeous.
