:hbeat: I still can’t get over how dreamy GTN15 is! Alas my cc is in the freezer until a boutique visit with a friend coming in from out of town (hahahaha unless a grail shows up somewhere- looking for a Tsitsika or Alice Shirleys). Hoping this is in so I can give it a try. :woohoo:

I noticed it’s listed on the bay at well over retail. I swear the second someone mentions a design it magically shows up there at a nutty price


LOL - any screen name of mine is inspired by desperately looking around me for inspo

Your husband narrowly escaped a dread fate!

Beautiful colorway!

Night at the Museum could be considered a ghost story so you’re perfectly on theme!

I’ve been eying this online and thank you for showing how beautiful it is IRL! So much more evocative than their website

Love the knot!!!
Thanks, it’s just a wonky cowboy knot

Today's Ghost Rider in the Sky depiction is the scarf that many of you have already posted for Halloween week. The song describes the riders' faces as being gaunt and their eyes were blurred. Faces don't get much more gaunt nor eyes unseeing than the skeletal rider on his skeletal horse in C'est la Fete. Surrounded as he is by a field of stars, this white apparition is truly a Ghost Rider in the Sky.

My SOTD is C'est la Fete.

SOTD is Musée. Nothing scary about that, but a lovely scarf in a lovely cw.

So happily paired :biggrin:
*Vintage artifacts can be spooky... I think you’re on theme ;)

Provence 31 October in the year of 1894.

The bells of the clock tower has just struck midnight. The little boy stood shivering in the lavender field, its flowers long since withered in the cold autumn. Suddenly the quiet of the night is broken by the sound of horses hoofs thundering on the ground. Out of nowhere a carriage appears, pulled by six black stallions, urged on by the whip from the coachman. It races through the field as if it is chased by the devil itself. Its elaborate lanterns, swinging by the movements of the coach, are casting a dim glow in the night. The boy’s blood turns to ice at the sight of the headless coachman.

This is the first recorded sighting of the carriage. It is rumoured to only be sighted on the night of all hallows eve. Witnesses claim the carriage bears the insignia of the empress dowager Cixi of the Qing dynasty. To this day, it remains a mystery to what happened to the carriage and the unfortunate fate bestowed upon its coachman and why it is haunting the French countryside.

As a tribute to this weeks theme, I am for my scarf Friday wearing Coup de Gala gavroche with matching lipstick in orange boite.View attachment 5242052
Oooooh, delightfully chilling tale.
Fabulous scarf- you look smashing!

My new to me Fantaisie Pittoresque, not at all scary in subject matter but deep black and antique gold so a bit spooky in look.

I didn’t know much about the artist, and I’m pretty sure I don’t have any other scarf by him, so did a bit of research:

François Houtin was born in Craon en Mayenne, France in 1950. He has lived and worked in Paris since 1971. He was trained as a landscape architect, and worked on such prominent projects as the renovation of the Jardin des Tuilleries in 1991. It wasn't until 1973 that he learned printmaking from Jean Delpech, and by 1979 he had become a full-time artist known for his highly detailed prints of utopian gardens. His prints mix equal parts of superb draughtmanship, deep appreciation for the history of Classical French landscape architecture, and his own unfettered imagination.

Love the details of artist & scarf - thanks for sharing them both with us :hbeat:

Wow love how the matching top allows those white highlights to pop! Love this look very much. Great cw of the scarf. Those stars would be the one reason I would buy this. They are so great in this cw
 
“It will be fun they said”, she muttered to herself as her so called friends ran off.
“It’s never fun, I hate Fun Houses… they’re no fun at all. But there’s no way to go but forward, so here I go.”
She went down the darkened hall, feeling with her hands the wall. When she reached an opening, she turned down that way, even though the darkness seemed even heavier.
Suddenly a light flared, and a disembodied arm reached out and grabbed her shoulder.

She screamed, shook it off and ran down the hall. As she walked, she felt something cold and clammy brush against her leg. She looked down and saw a large fish swimming around her, its whiskers twitching
2E7261BC-158A-4016-86A7-E13F4647EE2E.jpeg
She gave a little squeak and hurried on.
”Oh my gosh, what is this place?!?”, she whispered as she rushed down the dark hall.
The lights flashed on and she heard a terrible roar as she found herself face to face with a huge lion.

She screamed and turned around to run back the way she came when she tripped over something in her way. She fell into a doorway and as she picked herself up all the lights came in and beautiful music began to play. She stood up and found herself in a large room, with chandeliers and statues. As she looked around the room, she noticed in the distance a small stage with words printed below it. She walked up to the stage wondering what the words meant

As she turned to run away, a voice intoned
“To pass in the incision of the floor of the stage”… when the floor opened beneath her and she fell into the blackest of black pit.

I cannot I see this tale! Fortunately it ties beautifully
 
I got my SOTD as a birthday gift. Loved the thoughtfulness, loved the theme (animal charmer!), loved the colorway. But as I delved deeper into the story behind I was a tad horrified.

This design is inspired by 1001 Arabian Nights night#146 - the story of the birds, the beasts and the carpenter. Sounds good so far! Well the tale is about the evil of man (the carpenter lures a lion into a box then burns the lion alive then captures a duck who doesn’t honor Allah).

Not so charming after all.

But I still love this shawl.

I love hearing the stories behind scarf purchases as well as stories behind scarf design. You combined it with a great modeling pic and it’s a grand slam!
 
I love when you bring this one out. Wonderful base color. Love the light blue scarf ring too. And of course the best smile on here!

beautiful dip dye!

I must learn this know too. It is so cool. Love the four differences in the knot.

I second snausages! I can’t recognize the print either. Great accent colors

awe thank you! There are varying shades of off white and ivory to a cream and perhaps ( a big perhaps) a plain white. But by no means is there a bright white. Even the white on the animals has a sketch work of black/gray in it. The hem actually might be a white.
I am so glad I am not the only one who knows nothing about color. I’ll be waiting at the table for you w my own pen and paper too:panic:. I think @blydia has the knowledge for identifying if this is warm pastels or cool. I am posting more details in the A/W 21 thread. You’ll see where a white lies next to an ivory.
I would say the apricot throughout makes it lean warm, I can see this looking absolutely stunning on people with spring coloring :love:
