Thank you, MabelJo,

Happy New Year, dear Karenska!

So elegant! ... and that necklace!

Thank you, dear ... and right back to you, a very happy 2024!

It is so gorgeous, Agrume, you inspired me for the pastel one.
Happy New Year!
Thank you, Croisette. It is very special. Matching earrings (worn here) and bracelet (being restrung), this is my wedding jewelry that I helped design with my local and very talented jeweler, Theresa Girzone Designs, whose designs I have mentioned many times before. There is no pink in the SD moussie stole but the necklace has lavender crystals along with pinks, and it worked just so nicely.
 
Happy New Year SOTD community. One of my goals for 2024 is to wear my scarves again. We moved last year and honestly there’s been little motivation to sort all of the boxes and get back up and running. I do lurk here from time to time, and truly miss the fun of the thread and all you lovely scarfies. Will be back later with an actual SOTD post, for now I’m still in pjs. Happy new year to all!
 
What beautiful and spicy yellows and oranges, Marta. It’s a winner!
I acquired my long sought-after Les Myths this year, too, EtsyBoss! I am not sure if we are twins or sisters but here is mine:

Tomorrow I will pull mine out and compare it to your amazing mod shots with such beautiful ties. It is indeed an amazing design.
Thank you very much, dear @Karenska , and I am happy you managed to find your Les Mythologies des Hommes Rouges this year. I am a big fan of KO designs as well

It is magnificent!
 
This year's Oscar for the Best Vintage Design I received this year goes out to Les Mythologies des Hommes Rouges by Kermit Oliver, my second KO this year and an absolute design wonder. I feel so fortunate to own not one but two KOs. My other is the gorgeous Tsitsika that pays homage to the peoples of the Pacific Northwest coast. This one celebrates the native people of North America more broadly, focusing on those of the United States. It is so detailed and beautifully rendered. Every time I look at it I notice a new detail. There is a lot to love in Kermit Oliver's designs!

A special award goes to Mr. Etsy Boss for Best Supporting Actor in the Acquisitions Department for gifting the Mythologies to me for Christmas - and keeping it a secret! When I saw this design modeled here (I wish I could remember which one of you is responsible! @Cookiefiend maybe??) I fell in love and showed the Mr who took a shine to it as well. Then the hunt began. I found / suggested two and he chose the much prettier but more costly one (good man!). They're both stuck with me for life :heart:

At the heart of the design is a circle of plains animals such as bear, white tailed deer, sandhill cranes, and bison that I remember fondly from childhood camping trips. Each corner depicts what I believe must be essentially the different peoples of the four corners of the US. I'm especially fond of the bear and the bison and the woman standing on the turtle / tortoise with the wood rat (?) who might represent the people who were native to the area that is now Florida, not sure. This scarf also has a charming border of delicate white flowers running on two of the four sides which none of my ties shows off particularly well. Colors are sand, pale blue, sage, a bit of rouge and brown, very Earth tone and with a great marine / teal border that is quite subdues as to be possibly charcoal.

There you have it, the extraordinary and so graily KO Mythologies des Hommes Rouges of which I am tickled and thrilled to be the new protector. Did I mention it looked like it had never been worn?!

Here are shots of my LMdHR flat. We do not have the same cw - mine is more silver and grey. I really love your cw, EtsyBoss sister :hugs:, but could never find it at a price point that I could tolerate. Regardless, I love mine, too! I don’t think there is a bad cw of this design, although the brown one is a bit strong.

The second award in my 2023 Oscarf Ceremony will be awarded for Best Format Enhancement of a Design. There are two categories: large to small and small to large. Envelope, please. And the Golden Cat statuette goes to 12 Leopards DF 90!
I adore this design and had succumbed to it when it was first issued in CSGM in the AW21 season. Even so, I longed for a 90 version. Last fall it finally appeared and I fell hard-- choosing not one but two for a total of 24 Leopards altogether (36 if we add the CSGM). I am way past @HermesEchidna's double jeopardies here...

In the small to large category, the Golden Pegasus Oscarf statuette goes to Clair de Lune-- among my most loved double face 90s. This was issued in CSGM for AW23 and I think the design in its new format is just as award-worthy as the original 90.

And sharing my SOYE for a relaxed toast with our neighbors last night...

Hoping everyone has a lovely New Year's Day!

Outstanding additions to your collection - and what a gorgeous GMCS to toast NYE with your neighbours.
May I wish you a very Happy New Year.
 
Hello Scarflandia
My love for Maxi Twillies started with black Brazil and black Kachinas Maxi Twillies - thanks to @MaiTai 's amazing blog and enabling. This love turned out to be longlasting, so no wonder that a MT was also one of my 2023 acquisitions. It was a long haunted for Carre en Carres MT by Kermit Oliver:
