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.

I really like how you are using a bolo look with the cowboy knot!

Thank you, dear Essie!

 

[momasaurus]

Thank you kindly dear Croisette!



Thank you moma! I'm so glad some of the originals keep making it through! For awhile when I saw all the "sold" marks on my notes I was like "Geez Louise! get tired of things much???" But now I just accept that is part of the process.

Exactly. It's still part of the process, even with all our experience!

My Oscarf for All-Around Favorite Scarf goes to .... La Danse Des Amazones! Does anyone remember my hemming and hawing about whether I would send her back? What was I thinking? Came to my senses fortunately (scarf-mergency happy resolution, thanks guys!). The rich, soft colors and fine details make me feel cozy and comforted, yet sophisticated. The Amazones make me feel like a warrior princess - usually they are hidden but that's ok, I know they are there which is the important thing! The darling owl is emblematic of my "knowledge work" profession. And the variety of motifs, patterns, and little pops of stronger color provide continual variety. Happy New Year all!

such a versatile scarf!

Today, on this last day of 2020 (go ahead and play The Ramones "I Wanna Be Sedated" you know you want to! ) I have a special award. Mostly I made it up so I could wear my Brazil MT yesterday before the cold front came through here. But then I thought, "ya know? It really is a special award!"

So I looked though my Scarfnotes (yes- for realz....color coded too) to see just how many went in and out this year. Despite telling myself I was going to cool it a bit, 23 scarves still found their way IN the door either as a gift or purchase. I am grateful that 18 did go OUT the door to better pastures (mostly twillies and pocket squares but I did "cull" the moussies too and the cashmere (only by 1 tho )

So this very special award goes to a group of scarves that have somehow managed to avoid being re-homed in one of the inevitable Bunnycat Culls. I fully admit that I can be fickle and get tired of something (sometimes quickly) and have finally accepted that is OK! But there is an awful lot of "red" (sold) in my notes from the first year in Spring 2014-15 of Scarfbuying (I'm creating a whole bunch of new verbs here....) and very little of the "dark blue" (still in the scarf drawer) form that time.

love seeing your summary! I didn’t realize you picked that CW of promenade de paris. Thought you would pick the blue or black one!

But my favorite acquisitions in 2020 were a CSGM (Perspectives) and Brise de Gala mousse changeant

Big surprises were these brown/gold tones (new for me) and so many white scarves (obviously a pandemic reaction).

wow you are rocking these warm colors!

I want to like and comment and love it all, so much eye candy and many brilliant oscarf choices. Thanks everyone for all of the comments and likes on my scarves and the fur babies. They are truly a highlight for our household. I’m so happy to have discovered this thread and to have “met” all of the lovely posters here. Wishing you all a happy new year and a running start to 2021 fully of joy, good health, love, and orange boxes!
Actual SOTD - ITCW for some forgotten items at the grocery store. cannot believe this scarf was on my rehome in 2021 list.

Please don’t jettison this scarf! It looks great on you.

Not having that Maison was driving me crazy, and it is so pretty!
I was waiting to compare the 2 blue Promenades, then that never happened, then I thought I would just give the red one a try. I like it!
And yes, thank you - who knew? I never wear these colors!!! I recently sold a blue scarf! LOL. (It's not like i don't have others....)

zomg - so beautiful - and I am so happy to be your twin with the yellow silk!

Very fun week seeing everyone's scarf journeys and awards for 2020. My contribution is La Folle Parade, one of my favorites. Its such happy, fun, whimsical scarf. Every time I see it or wear it I smile.
I imagine if it were a film, it would be an in the Oscar category of animated short, with the cart wonkily rolling along and the critters frollicking and and playing silly pranks on each other to a cacaphony of music.

Presenting the award is my Little Girl (yes that's her name) but since this is the first year and she's new at this, she was a bit confused as to what to do.... Hopefully she'll get the hang of it with practice! No mod shots since I'm dealing with Covoid hair (again!) and Christmas pounds. Best wishes to all for a Happy and Safe New Year!

It is such a happy scarf and I can see your images perfectly!

Fabulous red - and how did you tie that? I love it!

On this last day of the year I am reminded of the double-faced Roman god Janus, with the old man looking back at the last year, and the young man looking forward to the next. I was fortunate this year to welcome two incredible double-faced Hermes scarves into my collection. Della Cavalleria Favolosa is a delight with the various chimera playing with children's toys. But, C'est la Fete is in a class by itself and is certainly appropriate to wear as we bid goodbye to 2020.

The Oscarf for Best Double-Faced Scarf goes to C'est la Fete.

Well played, and both are lovely!
(the one and only time when being two-faced is a good thing! )

Have a few things this morning, but I hope to be back this afternoon with some Oscarf awards . If time slips by and I don’t until tomorrow, I just want to say Happy New Year to the planet and to all of us, as we send 2020 out the door . It’s been a very hard year for all of us but being on SOTD with such wonderful people has helped get me through it. Thank you. And may 2021 bring all your silk dreams come true. .

Oh, and one more thing.....
