Oh both of these are just beautiful! Love your Fd’E. That is a fun cw. Beautiful sentiment, too, Agrume.

Thank you, @Cookiefiend, for hosting autumn scarves last week. I spent this Sunday morning watching the cortege carrying the casket of Queen Elizabeth through Scotland from Balmoral to Edinburgh. We drove that same route three summers ago (thanks to Google Maps and my son's nerves of steel (some of those roads are narrow and lined with rock fences, not to mention driving on the left)), and it brought back such memories.
Scottish Highlands
The River Dee near Balmoral
Queensferry Crossing into Edinburgh
Ledoux's Scotland was one of my first Hermes scarf purchases because this subject was so important to me.
Noting the yellow and red flag with the Scottish lion covering the Queen's coffin, I remembered one of my Scottish t-shirts, and brought it out to wear today. SOTD is Scotland.

TBH I could use a ‘how do I style this scarf’ thread!
Our theme this week is practically tailormade for us! How often do we gasp at the beauty of a scarf or 
when we see a scarfie's modshot? Let's bring out our stunners this week!
It doesn't happen all that often, but every now and then, a scarf will seize my attention and overwhelm me with desire. Sometimes, it's because of the design or the colour. Sometimes it's because of a single element in the design (ahem - bunnies...). Oftentimes it's because of the format (I'm partial to 70s and silk/cotton). Occasionally it's because a scarfie here wore it and stole my breath away!
A couple of scarves which I bought for a lark and stunned me when they arrived. Neither are grails or special editions or even hard to find. But when I opened the package, I fell in love. Their common denominator: both are jacquards.
Jouvence, which I wanted because it was one of the few designs created by Leila Menchari. The fireworks jacquard is tdf! And the peachy orange cw was surprisingly pleasant.
The other jacquard is Plumes et Grelots with a holly jacquard. I like this shade of blue, but it frequently doesn't photograph true. So I have bought scarves before which I thought were this steel blue but turned out to be quite different from what I expected. This was not only the blue I wanted, it bowled me over with the luxe silk jacquard and the delicately detailed design!

Stunning scarves which leave you Breathless
I can still recall the first time I grabbed the phone and called the boutique. "Do you have Sieste au Paradis? It's the scarf with the picture of cliffs. No, I don't know the cw. It's in blue and red." The helpful SA ran with my barebones description and found it for me!It doesn't happen all that often, but every now and then, a scarf will seize my attention and overwhelm me with desire.

If you click on the orange label "SCARVES" which prefixes our thread title, it leads you to a list of threads about scarves, including some about how to wear scarves. And if you do create a new thread, you can request the mods to add the prefix for you.
What a thoughtful marking. Fleurs d'Ecosse is a stunner. Thank you also for your kind words.
This made me tear up.
You are so sweet, Florasun. Thank you.
And, thanks to @xincinsin for hosting this week's theme. I have a feeling it will be heavy on Kyoto marble silks for me this week. One look and I had to have them.
What a lovely and thoughtfu post. Thank you.

I guess I better drag the Fainting Couch out for this week…
It’s gonna be a doozy!
Your Sieste is gorgeous! This is the one that got away. I had it in my hand and the SA was trying to convince me to get a different CW. Which confused me and I left the store empty handed. And then it was sold out. Still so sad about it. This CW is beautiful but frankly, a the CWs are stunning. I sure hope H reissues it in 90.Our theme this week is practically tailormade for us!

This will be a wonderful week!
A beautiful post and a beautiful tribute that made me feel so present on this doubly sad memorial day. The scar is perfect with your top and your feeling for the country and the Queen and the historic moment we are all sharing was palpable and touching. Thank you.
Just fabulous-- your Sieste! As @Cookiefiend said, drag out the fainting couch! This is going to be a week where we all need our inhalers, fans, fainting couches and possibly even supplemental oxygen if your initial post is anything to go on. @xincinsin -- thank you for shepherding us through a new theme week!Our theme this week is practically tailormade for us!

I have recently been lured over to the mousseline side of H beauty by several amongst you Who Shall Remain Nameless. I saw a beautiful post by our dear @Living.la.vida.fifi on her instagram account about Offrandes d'un Jour-- a design which already left me breathless but I was unprepared for the perfection of that particular design in this particular format. My DH thinks it is the most stunning piece in my collection and though I have not owned it very long or worn it very often, it never fails to elicit approving comments and even gasps of admiration when I do. It is so beautiful to me that I can't even bear to tie it! (and coming from a compulsive knot experimenter y'all know that is saying a lot 
)
