So will I!Wonderful. Thank your friend for all the pictures. I see Hermes had other scarves there as well. Now, I see that I need to plant a tree for the jubilee. I will be planting it in the US, of course.

What an indulgence to learn how this scarf came to you! Lucky and you look beautiful with it.
ooooooooh, I hadn't seen this cw. How beautiful, @croisette. Absolutely gorgeous. I love floral and this design and various cws are all unique and each stunning.
Your assessment/diagnosis of the artistic nuances of the British Heraldry scarf are really interesting. Who knew?

Just adorable for this week, Karenska !SOTE and continuing my daily tribute to Her Majesty the Queen, during her ‘PlatJub’, as my DH calls it. And hopefully staying on theme, too.
Thursday and Friday I highlighted Queen Elizabeth’s passion for horses and dogs. Today my tribute is to the magnificent literary tradition she was born into, specifically, England’s greatest poet and dramatist, William Shakespeare. He lived and wrote during the reign of an earlier Queen, another great monarch and Elizabeth II’s namesake. A Midsummer Night's Dream was written around 1595 or 1596, and one theory, though there is no proof, is that he wrote it for Queen Elizabeth I in celebration of the Feast of St John. Acte III with two different brooches, a SS Plique a Jour dragonfly, and a Wedgwood and gold Grecian fairy, both appropriate to the themes in a MSND. I chose to wear the white sweater and dragonfly. Also, this design filled with trees and woods is my way of celebrating the Queen’s Canopy, a tree-planting effort throughout Britain that Hermès-Paris is donating proceeds from the sales of the Special Edition Voitures Exquises.

Just adorable for this week, Karenska !
Lovely scarf, RBH, and perfect for the theme this week and the jubilee. The corgi stuffed toy is adorable and I now wish I’d adopted one when I was in England in 2019. I had the opportunity at Windsor Castle and Hampton Court. Of course, I’d prefer a real one; they are one of my favorite breeds.
Both are lovely, Agrume, and congratulations on acquiring a Fd’E. Such a pretty colorway.
Good day, dear Scarfies,
Happy Sunday and the final day of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. Hosting this week will be a hard act to follow after @Cookiefiend ’s stellar captaining of our silky ship. Cookie, your daily offerings and thoughtful comments were delightful and inspiring, and relating the story of how you acquired your Voitures Exquises was the frosting on the cake!
I also want to offer an appreciation and shoutout to everyone who participated with your own silk treasures. Your offerings and comments are equally delightful and inspiring. This forum is such a joy and it’s because of YOU! 
Take a Chance on Me!
Step Out of Your Comfort Zone in Design, Colour or Style!
Who hasn’t been faced with a sartorial choice that requires a leap of faith, to trust your own instincts and follow them? I remember a pair of high-heeled pumps that I bought when I was about 22 which I deemed impractical but essential. Oh, they were gorgeous. A deep winey red snakeskin, they were far more elegant than my wardrobe at the time. But they turned out to be very versatile. I wore them with everything. Touches of deep red, burgundy with navy or black, even with straight-leg jeans, they provided a bit of elegance and a pop of color. And as my wardrobe grew, they became even more essential. I wish I had a photo of them. I wore them for years.
Back to scarves. I took a chance on this colorway and I have never regretted it. I always loved the all-turquoise cw, but when I managed to find it, I was underwhelmed. Also, it was in poorer condition than described so back
it went. So I reconsidered this cw, which I originally thought too bright. But this beauty has enough turquoise to temper the bright green, and enough to satisfy me. Also the touches of gold, greys and taupes are such pretty accent colors. And it’s such a bright and happy green! Finally, this scarf turned out to be the perfect choice because I acquired it from a tPF member, which makes it all the more special to me.
And my brother had sent me a monetary gift, which I applied towards the purchase of it which makes it even more special - , bro!
Here is my final tribute to Her Majesty the Queen on her Platinum Jubilee, Les Normands by Philippe Ledoux, commemorating the Norman Conquest, a watershed in English history. Paired with a pearl and sterling silver torsade and Tara brooch (the decorative border reminds me of these pennanular designs).
Let’s see you take yourselves out of your comfort zones this week and show us your “I took a chance” beauties!

Here is the souvenir I came home with from my 2019 trip to England, a 60th coronation anniversary plate.
I also passed up a scarf at the LHR boutique because I couldn’t make up my mind
, but later rectified it by buying said scarf at Madison Ave, so I consider my Baobab Cat gav my other significant souvenir from that trip. Archive shot with lovely glass scarf ring from @bunnycat ‘s studio.
What a wonderful week we had last week with @Cookiefiend and our detailed scarves. I especially enjoyed the details of how you obtained your Platinum Jubilee scarf. And, I'm looking forward to @Karenska and more stories of our more difficult scarves. I'm especially delighted to hear you are still loving that Les Normands. It looks amazing on you.
Today I’m wearing Regina, which was the Queen's Jubilee scarf in 2002. I purchased this scarf and it sat until we had a sleeper scarf week and then out it came. I am thrilled to own it, but I tend to wear my red Regina more often. As I go through my scarf collection I find that light blue scarves don't get worn as much as other colors. So, I'm more cautious now about which scarves I get in blue. This special blue scarf is a keeper, however.
The Queen owns this scarf in a different colorway, and I attempted to duplicate the headscarf orientation from this photo today.
A closeup of the flower petals and the leaves next to it show this is the same design.
My SOTD is the 2002 Golden Jubilee Regina.
And, since I haven't worn headscarves since I was a child, here is a bias fold for today.
