Everything is perfect : colors, earings, knots, scarves of course. I cannot tell which one I prefer...I am going to have to double post to fit all my year end recap into the week! To paraphrase the Beatles' song "Eight days a week is not enough to show" ...my scarves! I spend way too much time making these fun "pic collages" ever since @Nomad showed how she does them. This one shows four designs by Nathalie Vialars: (left to right) De Passage a Moscou, De Passage a Tokyo, (second row) De Passage a Paris and De Passage a New York. Although I acquired the Paris and New York scarves in 2020 and 21, I am including them because I completed the "set" this year and that felt like an accomplishment!

Whaatt you "rehomed" a Samouraï... And you feel ok about it ! Tell me you have several others (a small samouraïs' squad) !Haha, I’m trying NOT to think that way haha. I need my collection to shrink. I had a great year for rehoming. I am pleased. And oh so thankful I have not missed one of them…phew. That’s always the fear right…that we might regret when we pass ours along! I even rehomed a Samourais and am a-ok about it. Phew.
Hehe. I do indeed have a squadWhaatt you "rehomed" a Samouraï... And you feel ok about it ! Tell me you have several others (a small samouraïs' squad) !
Cruel world... I'm too late, what a tragedy! Just in case, I'm ready to offer a shelter to the valiant samurais ready to join my little squad of scarves. My brunette type/brown eyes can handle contrastHehe. I do indeed have a squad. I am very happy with what remains. 3 90’s and 3 140’s. I sold the brights 90 colorway. My light complexion/hair/blue-gray eyes can not handle high contrast neon brights.
This was made for you. Glorious!Hi all, hope everyone is having a good holiday season, if applicable. Here is my new Costume de Fête (cw02).

Thank you @LKBNOLA and congrats on the very special SEs!
Oh dear @Nomad I’m so sorry the bug got youIt does linger but it’s always a delight to see you and the scarves are fabulous
What a lovely gift @Coco2606
The pinks are divine @Pirula
Thank you so kindly @Croisette7
Thank you for the lovely compliment @Karenska and allow me to return it! These are all lovely but I insist you forego cashmere when stopping by your local shop because kitty will be hurt with the absence of cuddles! Beautiful amaryllis! I’ve not seen that color before. Which reminds me it’s time for my annual raid of after-Christmas amaryllis sales - they do remarkably well in my yard and I adore their large blooms
A wonderful accomplishment, all so very beautiful. And your mod shots are stunning! Love this collage option.

L'Hiver en Poste is one of my favorite winter holiday scarves.

As travelers struggle with canceled flights and snowy highways today, this scarf reminds us of times before air or auto travel. Look at those horses struggling to get through the deep snow on an unplowed road.

Here is a quick mod shot then I'm back inside. I'm wearing my best pearls today, peacock Tahitians from Kamoka Pearls.

Such pretty blues and reds. I’ve pretty much decided that I need to stop treating my scarves like holy relicsThis scarf wasn’t a 2022 purchase, but my approach to wearing it changed over the course of the year. When I first purchased it I was very precious about it, just wearing it for “special.” Now I love to wear it around the house and on errands to brighten up my drab colored but comfortable sweatshirt, or to the farmers market. I did remove it while I was painting some shelf standards earlier today

Sounds delicious!Thank you @Lellabelle and @Karenska-- I hope you will wear yours soon, too. What could be better than a starry night of silk? The cake is just a simple cake but like many Jewish recipes it is made with oil instead of butter. Otherwise it is a mix of apples, walnuts, cinnamon nestled between two layers of almond flavored batter and dusted with confectioners sugar! Very simple and delish!
And speaking if cake! The perfect holiday scarf-- looks great with your nice knot and your red sweater @mktlim...
Thank you so much @Croisette7 and I wish you a happy and joyful Christmas!
I love the way you wove your strand of pearls around the scarf @Redbirdhermes. Great scarf and best wishes for a very Merry Christmas. I bet your little grandson will have a wonderful time...enjoy your holiday...
Photo evidence of your impressive holiday baking but an even better angle to show your beautiful top and scarf combination! How nice to think of days getting longer and future gardens @Teaforparrots! Happy Holidays...
This is sophisticated and elegant, Maedi. Dipdyes are so special!No wintery or holiday motives but some festive colors. Two Marwari dipdyes and Bride de Gala dd from the first edition. Does anyone else remember the charming reindeer ad that year?

Thank you, again, dear Stylehound, looking at these mod shots and photos again, you look as exotic and mysterious as the BLR dancers.Fun week of preparations and celebrations events, and everyone’s scarves are inspirational! Very grateful to @Karenska for a wonderful intro and reminder of 130s anniversary of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker premiere at Mariinsky! Your La Comedie Italienne is gorgeous! I am joining in with my festive Les Ballets Russes (sorry, I’ve posted it before, but it’s apropos now) worn today for holidays lunch with friends:
