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

[Maedi]

Well- I don't know about you guys, but I have already been singing Xmas songs and switching out the lyrics to fit H for MrBCat.

For example, nothing beads Eartha Kitt's Santa Baby, but let's add some H. So I sing:


Me: "Santa Baby, slip some cashmere under the tree- for me.
Been an awful good girl...."

MrBCat: "You better start workin' a lot harder on that...."

Me:

Here's the glorious Miss Eartha doing it right (tho the Miss Piggy version is cute too.... )





And last week my mother and I went shopping (so she could look for a zip up velour house robe ( ) I heard the most awesome version of I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas and immediately began the hunt for it to download.

Of course, Hippopotamus starts with H and so does another H so now I sing in code...

"I want a (H)ippopotamus for Christmas. Only a (H)ippopotamus will do! No crocodiles. No rhinoceros(es). I only like... (H)ippopotamusses! "

Here's the (IMO) best version by Lake Street Dive. It's not the original orchestration with the rather aggressive march cadence and whiny lyrics, but a very playful samba, so don't fear clicking on it!




I hope everyone who celebrates had a wonderful holiday!

Such a fun post, dear bunnycat. And the GMs are gorgeous.

Glorious and congrats on it!

Thank you dear bunnycat. Pink and purple are both favorite colours. I have been wanting this one ever since I saw living la vida fifis scarf.

 

[Nahreen]

Congrats! I love this look... so chic

Thank you dear Turnsurf. I am so grateful for your assistance when aquiering this scarf. The SA at the H makeup section in my store suggested I get the violet byzantine nailpolish to match, which I did. Looking forward to try it.

The turn of the year is approaching and we are firming up the themes for 2022. If anyone would like to be a guest scarf mistress next year, drop one of the scarf mistresses a message. All are welcome!

And now, our next theme...

Ribbons, Bows and Lace
All manner of elaborate hats, clothes and decorative elements

In a nutshell, this week we are looking at embellishments. And if there is one thing in which H scarf designers excel, it is the sheer detail they put into their artwork.

Ribbons can be found in many scarves, often sinuously curving and looping round the borders. This design for Air France shows two concentric circles of fluttering wavy ribbons round the turbine, perhaps a visual representation of the sound waves from the engine roaring.


Braid and fringes decorate the border of these two scarves, a reminder of the military subject of the design: Le Redoutable and L'Indomptable.

This design is probably the best example for our theme: the highly decorated horses of La Danse du Cheval Marwari. There are ribbons, bows, lace, bells and beads galore! What a glorious sight the performance must be!

Let's find our embellishments, scarfies! And if you want to amp up the glam with your own glitz and jewels, I say Go For It!

Thank you, @xincinsin , for hosting yet another week of amazing scarves. Ribbons and Bows is one of those themes where I thought, at first, that I didn’t have any examples. Then I realized that any of the three scarves I brought along this weekend would work as crossover scarves, as they all had musical themes and decorative elements. Yesterday I wore Fleurs de L’Opera which has lovely ribbons and palms encircling the operatic flowers.

My scarf of the day is La Cle des Champs, with its delightful songbirds flitting around on decorative branches with a latticework frame.

Happy Holidays everyone! Been liking everyone‘s posts when I can. I’m away from my scarves still but here are two Archives of some adorned people with lace, hats, and ribboned purses and adorned horse riders in promenades de longchamps and promenades de Paris. I love these scenes of the past on Hermes scarves. Lots of frills on hats! I don’t have a full photo of paris scarf To show unfortunately. Also archive of The royal mews.

Such a different era! I remember reading Austen's novels and the frivolous ladies in P&P were so obsessed with buying new bonnets!

 

[Barbette]

The Monsieur et Madame includes ribbon and many other extra accessories and pretties. The border was
lust at first sight!

SOTD is Jeu des omnibus et dames blanches. Officially, I am on vacation, but it is really just another day of home office with a Zoom meeting during the whole afternoon and now the preparations for it.

A favourite design which I own in a number of cw is Doigts de Fee, depicting lace making equipment. I’m actually wearing the red version today as it’s very festive looking, the other colours are archive shots. (I also have a very well-used grey version but can’t find any mod shots).
