27 Dec 2020 The Oscarf: Best 90, Best CSGM and other Oscarf-worthy categories (copyright Cookiefiend!)
Happy last Sunday of 2020, my dear scarfie friends! It seems as if it was yesterday that we began our yearly silk adventures here on SOTD, and here we are wrapping up the year... And, what a journey it’s been! We are all, no doubt, ready to say goodbye to a most challenging year and poised to welcome a new one full of hope and possibilities.
I think that we all agree that 2020 was a year that will live in infamy, except where our silks are concerned, for we have witnessed a marvelous array of scarves here every single week. At moments where we have been sad, anxious and troubled by world events, our little SOTD corner of the world has been a spot of beauty, comfort and joy.
And, now, we get ready take stock of all of the wonderful scarves that have entered our collection this year and to, once again, hold our very own Oscarf Awards ceremony! For, where Hollywood has the Oscar, Scarflandia has the Oscarf, courtesy of our dear Cookie.
This was a very interesting year for me as I purchased my first mousseline scarves and fell in love with this format, adding a total of five to my collection. So, I will begin by giving my Mousseline of the Year award to my very first moussie and the one that remains my favorite: Offrandes d’un Jour
I also obtained my first Giant Triangle this year, so the First GT Oscarf goes to Kachinas.
But, where I went seriously bonkers this year was with CSGMs, adding a grand total of fifteen to my stash. As I live in a tropical climate, I can safely say that I’m pretty much done and satisfied with my shawl collection. I obtained so many treasures that it’s hard to pick a favorite, therefore I will present my Best Five CSGMs during the course of the week, beginning with La Femme aux Semelles de Vent.
And, the Best Giant Silk of 2020 award goes to Carnaval des Oiseaux
As every year, I purchased scarves from Hermès’ new collections. The Oscarf for Best Scarf of the Spring/Summer 2020 collection goes to the fabulous C’est la Fête, which I was lucky to find in two CWs.
And, the winner of Best Scarf of the Fall/Winter 2020 collection is La Legende de la Foret.
As every year, a variety of silks from past seasons entered my life. Some were long-time Grails for me. But, if I must choose my Grail of the Year, the award must go to Ex Libris en Kimonos in this exquisite CW.
I have been looking forward to this final week on SOTD, as a recount of all of my new scarves has been fun, enlightening and eye-opening. This year has been a momentous one for me, as I acquired a total of sixteen 90s, fifteen CSGMs, five mousselines, three giant silks and one giant triangle. I am looking forward to posting some of them this week. And, I can’t wait to see the parade of treasures that will be shared by all as we wrap up one scarf-loving year and get ready to begin another one full of silk dreams and expectations.
