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

[blydia]

your dark ClF is beautiful, and your Karnak really soothing. And Mr Bunnycat will like your new acquisition, I'm sure about it.


Lovely wintery colours, Nomad!


Yes, this is a perfect scarf for this week, Snausages!


This Après le déluge is very special!


A real autumn scarf, blydia, I bought mine inspired by your photographs of it - and also because i loved the story behind it.


I am sure a former orphanage has many scary stories to tell... but now it will also be filled with happier memories. And what a coincidence, I love this design and just found one, in this colourway - hope to receive it tomorrow, and already planned to wear it with exactly the same colour as you are in this photograph. A (scary?) case of transatlantic telepathy? I am looking forward even more to mine...


yes, those men in the moon... love this sky blue CW!


very pretty owls!


You can wear any colour, Awillow! Lovely!


More beautiful blues... fabulous, Croisette!

so glad I inspired you to get this beauty! it is one of my most beloved designs

Just a delightful post all the way around @Redbirdhermes and I have to respectfully (but vehemently) disagree that you can't wear black! Black and pearls even without the scarf? I am sure it would be a total win on you!

Thank you @Cookiefiend and yes, I think so too! I love the design and have never been able to resist architectural details, stained glass etc... (on your poem, I thought you were going for some haiku/tanka action but you surprised me!)



I love everything about this post @bunnycat but that wee pumpkin patch is just precious...

Wow! Amazed that you got them all in there @blydia! A true Monster Mash...

What a beautiful look and what a clever and creative story, charmingly illustrated @Cookiefiend!

Agrume!

Very spooky on this navy top @Agrume!

Just fantastic storytelling @Lauranad-- what a treat to read-- and that scarf is definitely a "dreamscape" or "nightmarescape" as you have cast it! We should collect these in a thread-- a little TPF scarf story anthology...

Just lovely, twin. You have paired one of my seasonal favorite silks with a perennially favorite ring and tie @MissIn!

This is just super creative and what a cute and clever tie @Snausages! As Agrume said, I love your pink and white outfit.

Fantastic gavs!

How very beautiful on the brick colored sweater @Croisette7! Delighted to steal another styling idea as I am your twin on this cw, too (the light blue border, correct?)...

Lovely @xincinsin -- and I can totally relate to long gone ghostly childhood places filled with memories spooky and sentimental both!

Beautiful! When you are not stressed I would love to see this one flat @Awillow!

Thanks, lkb! Taking a quick break to post this double face. You can see the dark blue side in the upper corner. Excuse the awful clashing greens!

Good morning all! On this last day of the three day holiday Dia de Muertos, which is also All Souls Day, I am joining my C'est La Fete sisters and twins. This was my 2020 grail scarf but I did not receive it until 2021 (long story) and it has been patiently waiting its turn for a TPF debut. Please forgive the terrible mod shot!

Oh, wait! I have a better picture. Showing Mr. Bones himself on the blue side and also, y'all KNOW I would have the right shoes...

perfect Halloween week dark and mysterious colorway. Wonderful on the purple top. I love your rosee version better than my no design one haha.

great info. This design shines in the two tone colors. I liked the blue pink version for the same reason but never hit buy. Now regret of course seeing how lovely it is on you And in your wonderful knots.

crazy dream haha. I love this on you!! Something about it. The size maybe with the classic colors? Or the tie? Regardless your matching lippie smile seals the deal for an amazing model shot.

call me crazy, I don’t remember seeing you in such neutrals. It looks equally great on you as your brights. N note to self that a bright lip adds so much to the balance. Your look is so great!

Wonderful post. This striking blue looks great on you and the yellow brings it up even another notch. Is this rando knot? Whatever it is it is a wonderful Unique tie look for the design.

HAHA! I don't wear many neutrals at all. It really seems to be something that I just have to try and see if it works depending on the color and design. This Karnak should not have worked on me in these colors, and probably would not have in these colors in silk twill, unless it was a large format, but it is one of my faves.

Virgin outing scarf. I have worn my green several times now but not this guy yet. Ummmm yeah love it! At least I have the satisfaction that indeed I should have bought it a year ago lol. ( wait is it a year and half ago this came out now??) I was forever hesitant to wear these bc I thought they were just too gorgeous to wear

Gorgeous with your grey sweater!

Thank you Agrume! (Int he ideal world...he would not NOTICE a new one.... )

Snausages inspired me to wear my M&M today. And this evening, I wanted to practise blydia's rando knot, with Les artisans, scary to me - motorcyclists are good for real nightmares, certainly for neurologists.

Both of these are beauties! The blue Les A is stunning with that dark hem!

It was a dark and stormy night, and while walking in the rain wasn’t too fun - the moon was full and the garden was lovely.

She’d noticed the sign leading to the garden’s path was a little rusty and hidden, but the path was clear and she hoped it would lead her to a shelter. As she walked, she saw small blue roses glowing along the path. Was it the moonlight shining on the dew-like rain drops, or were they some sort of unusual rose?
View attachment 5239815
The storm clouds moved and hid the moon, there was a sudden loud crash of thunder. It startled her and she began to run down the path, not seeing where she was going.
View attachment 5239816
As she ran, the path grew narrow, and she felt tendrils snatching at her ankles and thorns catching on her sleeves. The blue glow had become brighter and she could also see purple gleaming in the roses which had grown huge. A thick tendril covered in thorns wrapped around her waist and lifted her off her feet, as the overpowering scent of roses filled her head.

It was a dark and stormy night.

Cookie, this is so spectacular on you! It is *almost* worth the outrageous prices it gets listed at on the reseller market. (Wallet spooked by your eerie tale and my comment re: purchase runs and hides.)

That one is a wonder! (And I think we are twinges on room color coordination here...I have one room done up in these colors...)

 

[Awillow]

True story: last night I dreamt I was in some outdoor market and found a cream and copper colored Voyage a Pytheas in one of the stalls. I happily paid $612 for it and ran to show @Living.la.vida.fifi who immediately spotted a big stain and then informed me it was a completely different design.

What a nightmare.

But because the temps fell 20° overnight and the rain moved in, I was able to sashay out the door in Sweet (Sweat?) Dreams

Hilarious dream, snausages!! Love this on you!

I'm really enjoying everyone's stories and scarves this week! This week, I hadn't thought I would have much opportunity to share as I'm just not that creative when it comes to stories, but the spirits have willed it otherwise. Like @Snausages , my next story revolves around a dream from a couple of days ago. Well, not MY dream, but Mr BCs. It is a well known fact in House of Bunnycat that I have weird dreams. And the other day Mr BC declared that one of my dreams had been misdelivered to him the night before. Apparently, we were driving in the car in some out of the way town, and stopped at a little country store with no people around. We went in to look around, and found that there were dozens and dozens of H scarves of all sizes there for an amazing deal. (Yes please!!!!! ) Apparently I went bananas in the store with full Sales Goggles (copyright @Cookiefiend ) and then we left and the car broke down (yeah, that's my actual real kind of luck...). Of course, he thought this was the height of weirdness, but I duly informed him that there had been no mention of being spies on a mission, trying to escape from aliens that were planning on taking over the world, and having a few things explode....so in my dictionary, not tooooo weird except for the country store in the middle of nowhere we happened to find full of H scarves. Now here is the more eerie part. Last week, I DID have a SERIOUS attack of Sales Goggles. In fact, the bargain was so good, I said "damn the torpedos and my CC bill!", dropped everything else like a hot potato, and bought it. And... I did not tell Mr BC about it...And it quietly got delivered with no fanfare at all while he was out for a walk so he didn't know that yet another CSGM has quietly slipped in to my corral...... So I think the dream was delivered to warn him by ALLLLLL my rather frugal grandparents and great grandparents and aunts and uncles who probably spin in the graves every times an H scarf wings its way in to my scarf drawer.....like a strange "In the Mirror, Darkly" version of It's a Wonderful Life.... WHICH SCARF??? WITCH SCARF???? ===> And which scarf it is, I will keep you in suspense for the rest of the week, as it fits next week's theme very well..... <===== But here is my DREAMY Karnak mousseline I wore yesterday instead, in colors which always say "dreamtime" to me View attachment 5240668 Love this, bunny. As you know, you were my enabler, I mean inspiration.

 

[Awillow]

That one is a wonder! (And I think we are twinges on room color coordination here...I have one room done up in these colors...)

That is too funny, bunny. It got cold, so I threw an extra blanket on the bed. Well Mr. Bcat won't mind on your end, and Shelby and Bella and Mango don't care here as long as they can all sleep on the bed. I seem to put off home renovations in favor of scarves and travel and pets. At least I have my prioirities straight.

 

[Awillow]

scary story, but delightful scarf!


Thank you, Magjes!


perfectly put together!


Thank you, LKBNOLA!


Great look!


The scarf is so pretty and the bag so summery!


such a beautiful scarf!


Hello twin, and your rando knot works perfectly for this scarf!

Thank you, dear agrume!

I wore it on my head one year and made a little kid cry and run to his mom when I answered the door. Sorry...I should be sorry, I know.... but Thank you!


C'est la Fete is the bestest!



I did not know that about the redesign! Nice find for the week!



Thank you! I need to find one more batch to complete it.



OMG- with your shoes! Perfect indeed!



Beautiful and I love your new Garden Party!

Thanks, bunny. You rock yours!

TY! Summer gave its last gasp yesterday so I roughy put the brights for one last appearance for the year



Your collex and styling is fabulous

Some childhood memories are emblazoned in our minds! I love how our themes can bring back such clear pictures and that yellow is divine!

Pictures or it didn’t happen!

Ooooo so moody and dark for such a shimmery delight! Like a good changeant, every angle of the design is a new story!

Beautiful colorway!

Love love love learning about the inspo for the design and seeing side by sides! Congrats on the beautiful addition!

TY! As eager as I’ve been to break out the sweaters and shawls it was fun to have just one more day of summer!

Whatever makeup you are wearing in that first mod shot really makes your cheekbones pop

Love the scarf and that GP!!! Are the outer pockets and strap new for this design?

As long as he doesn’t touch the scarves…

Excellent knots and I *really* need to spend time reading the stores behind each scarf in the new season

Another wonderful skeleton!

That color is stunning!!

Thank you, snausages!

Gorgeous, Awillow!

Thank you, sweetie!

Very cool graphic looking scarf. And blue. Nothing better to me

Thanks, nomad. Blue was my gateway to h. I think a third to half my scarves must be blue...

your dark ClF is beautiful, and your Karnak really soothing. And Mr Bunnycat will like your new acquisition, I'm sure about it.


Lovely wintery colours, Nomad!


Yes, this is a perfect scarf for this week, Snausages!


This Après le déluge is very special!

I am sure a former orphanage has many scary stories to tell... but now it will also be filled with happier memories. And what a coincidence, I love this design and just found one, in this colourway - hope to receive it tomorrow, and already planned to wear it with exactly the same colour as you are in this photograph. A (scary?) case of transatlantic telepathy? I am looking forward even more to mine...


yes, those men in the moon... love this sky blue CW!


very pretty owls!


You can wear any colour, Awillow! Lovely!


More beautiful blues... fabulous, Croisette!

Thanks, agrume! I don't know that I can carry them all off, but I am willing to try!

Toys in an attic can evoke both sentimental memories of the golden days of childhood or perhaps feelings of abandonment and sorrow. Tales have also been written in which toys—especially dolls—are full of evil intent and downright creepiness. (The phrase can also colloquially mean someone who’s sanity is in question, but that’s for another day). We live in an historical building in New Orleans, originally founded as a girls' asylum and orphanage and subsequently purchased by Ann Rice, the author of the Vampire Lestat books and the trilogy The Witches of Mayfair set in her hometown of New Orleans. Rice restored the building with period décor and furnishings, but she kept the chapel intact, using it to house her extensive collections of dolls, miniatures and religious artifacts. St Elizabeth’s was not only her home but also a gallery (see photos).

St. Elizabeth's was divided into 21 condo units in 2003. Ours is on the top two floors of the left-facing tower. It is rich in associations for the city, and very much associated with Ann Rice and her vampires, witches and ghosts. Events were held there and tours were offered to the public so many people visited the doll museum/chapel. For today's theme, I am wearing Zabavushka, which celebrates the famous Russian toy museum, showing the corner full of nesting dolls:

wonderful find, lkb. And how lucky to live in such a fabulous city!

Many cultures saw Ghost Riders in the Sky not only in the stars, but also much closer to home in our own Moon. What we call the Man in the Moon has been seen as Cain the Wanderer, forever doomed to circle the Earth. Also, seen in various cultures are a woodcutter caught working on the Sabbath and banished to the Moon, a sheep-thief, a boy gathering sticks, a woman wearing jewelry, and in Japanese mythology, there is a tribe of human-like spiritual beings living on the Moon.

Here are some examples of the pareidolic images (looks like it's there, but it really isn't) seen on the Moon. (Credit to Wikipedia)

My favorite is the second image above of a rabbit. When Apollo 11 was going to the Moon in 1969, the astronauts were alerted by NASA to be on the lookout for the rabbit.

Here is the transcript.

"NASA: Among the large headlines concerning Apollo this morning, is one asking that you watch for a lovely girl with a big rabbit. An ancient legend says a beautiful Chinese girl called Chang-O has been living there for 4,000 years. It seems she was banished to the Moon because she stole the pill of immortality from her husband. You might also look for her companion, a large Chinese rabbit, who is easy to spot since he is always standing on his hind feet in the shade of a cinnamon tree. The name of the rabbit is not reported.

"Astronaut Michael Collins: Okay. We'll keep a close eye out for the bunny girl."

=========================
More recently, Hermes designer Dimitri Rybaltchenko gives us a pareidolic image (or is it really there??) of Pegasus in the Moon. The Story Behind reads:

"As though revealing the hidden face of the Moon, the scarf is divided between shadow and light. A crescent showered in stars borders a wide disk upon which the powerful body of the winged horse, Pegasus, appears - a divine creature with a disheveled mane."

Here is Gris/Blanc version of this Ghostly image in Clair de Lune.

View attachment 5240038

My SOTD is Clair de Lune, with the mythical Pegasus as my Ghost Rider in the Sky. I'm using the rando knot from @blydia and wearing my (Man in the) Moonstone pendant.

Nomad - I never saw this colorway in person. I picked my two up right before lockdown. It is exquisite with those pale colors and contrast hem.
