Happy New Year, everyone! I am delighted to welcome another year as we journey together in discovery, pursuit and enjoyment of our beloved silks.
On this first day of 2022, as our week comes to a close, I’d like to begin with my last purchase from the Fall/Winter 2021 collection: Grand Tralala in the stunning Vert Noir CW. I am still playing with this scarf and discovering ways to wear it, but I was very pleasantly surprised at how classic and timeless a design it is.

My last scarf of 2021 and first from the Spring/Summer 2022 collection was the wonderful Le Premier Chant. This is a wonderful design full of charming patterns, beautiful colors and enthralling symbolism. It will be perfect for Spring and I’m pretty sure it will be my Easter scarf

Another wonderful Aline Honoré design that came my way this year was L’Art du Sarasa in this amazing CW, highly enabled by

I was also lucky to score three designs that had long been on my wishlist. I was finally able to find Cave Felem in this CW… It was important for me to find one with a black cat and I did!

Another very special find this year was En Avant Toute, and it was the Queen Mary special edition, no less!

And, Ors Bleus d’Afrique. I had been hunting this particular vibrant blue CW and am so glad to have finally found it

Finally, my last but definitely not least mousseline of the year: the glorious Etude Pour un Iris Arc en Ciel, yet another moussie made possible by a dear scarfie. It has already become a favorite.

Last night we enjoyed an intimate dinner with family at a favorite restaurant. It was such a treat to enjoy a wonderful meal and to toast together. Then, we waited for the new year at home with our children and beloved menagerie of furries with champagne and the dozen grapes that is our Spanish tradition.
I wore my Parure Precieuses silk shawl that I had actually planned to wear to the Broadway show this evening since, once again, the performances have been cancelled due to Covid. Tomorrow I will host a champagne brunch for family.
I am delighted to welcome the new year here in the company of my dear scarf friends and look forward to a new year full of silken adventures
