Welcome to Day 5 of the
Paws for Thought theme week! Today we're focusing on hooves*! Hooves are kind of like paws, and horses are fur babies, yes?
Hermes began as a leather harness maker so horses are an integral part of the brand’s history. When a boutique opens, the first customer is always a horse.
My holiest of all holy grails is Accidents de l’Equitation but I’ve never seen one IRL or on the resale market. Should I find one, it would likely be the horsiest scarf in my collection because I just don’t gravitate to more classic designs.

But even someone like me has plenty of horses/horse adjacency in the scarf drawer: Cheval a Caractere, Vif Argent, Ulysse En Attendant, Quatre Chevaux

But if we want to stretch things, there are other Hooved furbabies beyond equines: pigs have been kept as pets (and are as smart as dogs!), Highland Cows are a bit big for pets but have adorable fur, and everyone knows llamas wear pajamas, right?
And so, my Silken Sisters and Brothers, I ask you to show me your hooved scarves! Bonus points for showing your real life animal friends!
