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.
 
I *just* missed out on the blue Dumas at a killer price while debating whether I should get another blue scarf, and now I'm obsessed with finding one. It looks like it will tie perfectly for showing off corners since all the horses are facing the "correct" direction.
I'm a little nervous about the Les Boxes. It's a sort of minty green, and I'm not sure whether it will suit me, but I kept going back and looking at it for weeks and decided I had to try it. If it's a miss I'll try to rehome and look for the light blue cw that's much more common and that I know will work for me, even if it's a color that I already have lots of in my collection. I love Clerc's style, it reminded me of a slightly more refined version of the illustrations in the Madeline books that I loved as a child.
I agree. I have found myself going down a bit of a clerc rabbit hole lately. The madeline comparison is so true.

Good luck with the boxes!
 
Evolving tastes is what makes us yearn for that which we were unsure of originally, or at least that is how it is for me. ITCW is a design I would grab now but it’s so expensive on the resale market. Animapolis, too! ( :graucho: ) And as I have said before, I can’t buy everything nor do I want to (although I certainly added to the collex this year. Blame it on the pandemic.;)

Passing on Appaloosa des Steppes when available at H, I finally found one this year - my framboise/canard cw. Not easy to find, though; this one came from France and not pristine condition. I have washed it but feel a good starching is needed (or whatever that starch-like product is, which I know I can look up; the name is just eluding me right now).
I feel that I do need to reevaluate my collection but good luck to me to have the courage to part with any of it - what if my tastes change back? :panic:
There are some scarves I just don’t get around to wearing. And that makes me feel bad because I certainly don’t buy these at these variously expensive or occasional good-deal prices for them to sit in the drawer!

I also missed this scarf at first, and have been lusting after the one with black/white (@Living.la.vida.fifi and others), but this CW is also fabulous!!!
 
Thank you so much! I had previously picked one up in the blue/gold colorway, but I couldn't resist how much of a confection this one was.

Your collection is an inspiration - heart eyes right back at ya! :loveeyes:

Thank you! :hugs:

W:loveeyes:W! Utter JL fabulousness...
the Dip Dye is completely :faint:

Thank you kindly!

thank you, Bunnycat!


thank you, Sammy, and nice to be a sister on this one!


twins with you, it is a lovely scarf!


JL is not for me, but love it on you! Especially the DD.


hello twin and thank you (it was after a busy night on call)! :hugs:


lovely styling, twin, and your scarf ring is great!


both are great scarves and I always admire your knots, Laurenad!


those pyjamas are a dream, papertiger!


you look great, AnnaE.


hm, a year ago I would not have known about it, but I do recognise this feeling now...


What a perfect combination, thank you for sharing, Pallida!



Many thanks!

Twins on the CSGM ... it is the best CW ever, bunnycat ... never rehome this beauty!

Thank you Croisette! (no worries there!)

Hello! I have been lurking on the forums for a while and would like to finally come out of the shadows to thank everyone for all of the positivity here over the past year. Scarf collecting was an even more enjoyable refuge for me than usual, and the photos and insight shared here are always helpful in making decisions and igniting inspiration. Thank you!

My New Year's Rescarfolution for 2021 is to devote more energy to enjoying the scarves I already have. I have been collecting at full steam for a few years now and have reached the point where I feel that my collection is almost "complete" (whatever that means!), so I want to slow down and luxuriate in the details of all of the beautiful scarves that I am so lucky to already own.

Speaking of details, I couldn't resist twinning with @papertiger in my Liberty robe and my 2020 award-winner for Most Whimsical Acquisition - Au Fil de la Soie. Come to think of it, this scarf might be my all-time winner in the Most Meta Silk category, and this image might just up the ante. Thanks for the inspiration!

this is gorgeous on you!
Hello, dear Scarfies ♡

Yesterday I wear my first Carrè 70, Promenade de Paris.

I matched this scarf with yellow sweater, my DH said that I look like an egg yolk... OMG

It was SOTD of another day.
(I think I should buy a Gris colored pullover.. haha :smile: )

First time, I was concerned that this scarf would be limited to make various knots and underutilized because it's smaller than ordinary Carrè 90. But I was worried for nothing! Actually, It's easier to make casual knots than Carrè 90, I think. I especially love this lively yellow-striped hem ♡

Wish you have a wonderful Wednesday! The place where I live has gotten very cold and now the temperature is below -10 degrees Celsius. Take care of your health, dear Scarfies ♡
very versatile! At first I thought the last 2 pix were a different CW. Then realized the golden yellow wasn’t showing.
I have had two bad experiences with TRR. In the most recent, I purchased a Cosmos from them that turned out to be fake. In a phone call, I explained to the service associate it was fake. When I returned it, I wrote a note explaining the ways you could tell it was fake. They relisted it. Now I am leery of purchasing from them.

Your Giverny is a beautiful colorway. Congrats on locating something you looked long and hard for.
sorry to hear about your bad experiences. I have only purchased one scarf from TRR and it came with H box and original tags so did not arrive wrinkled. I feel lucky.

ooh, love this. Hmm, may need another holiday scarf...
Off topic: this doesn't win any award except for New Format Virgin :blush:
My very first outing with my very first Maxi Twilly - Guepards.
As you can see, I really like this shade of red :P
View attachment 4941300
yes red does suit you!
We should bulkbuy Liberty jammies :biggrin:
And totally off-topic but I wish to share my sorrow here: the very old and venerable department store where I bought my first Liberty scarf decades ago closed down a couple of months ago :crybaby: - it didn't survive the Covid-caused loss of business.

And to return to topic, this took the award for Most Unexpected Obsession 2020: the Hermes x Liberty scarves. I started the year with one, and now have around 6.

My first one:

Ohmigosh - I love these...
Especially the second one! ❤️❤️❤️
 
Today’s award is brought to you by the color pink - I love pink (except for the dreaded pepto-bismol shade :sick:) and find it a very flatteringly color for almost everyone. I’ve hosted the Pink Week in October, and never manage to show them all - because there is often a small hint of pink in many of my scarves. :love:
This year I brought in 4 new pinks: Tigre Royal Fleuri, Ex Libris Parisiennes, Jardins de Soie, and L’Ivresse de L’infini.
