Great double up pairing, Jereni! Sanfrantastic! Yes, that could easily be a slippery slope - a wallet slimmer, too :lol:.

lol. “Wallet slimmer” should definitely be added to the scarfie lexicon! :biggrin:

“Wallet slimmer. Adj. A silk or cashmere adornment of such irresistible beauty that it must be purchased immediately, possibly in multiples, resulting in a substantial reduction of wallet girth.
‘Oooh, that Jaguar et Colibri is a real wallet slimmer. I have my eye on two colourways already and am considering a third’.”

😜

An Oscarf goes to this grail for being longest on my wish list to finally come my way this winter:

Wow! What an amazing find!!! It looks absolutely stunning on you. This gives me hope of finding some of the ones I’ve been seeing no sign of on the after-market.

Dear all
Now I am back from National Pajama Day, I have carried the tree down and out, restocked the fridge, been taught by my daughter how to knit and not least - played with my scarves, to select nominees.

How many scarves that had been added to my collection last year is a number that is only whispered in small padded rooms, placed in Dark underground caves in conspiratorial conversations between me, my conscience and perhaps my bank. A number no man, child or rational Human being will ever know.
In short - the best collecting year ever!
Wonder if it has something to do with the tender enablement, support and inspiration from all of you?!

My two categories for today are an age and a grail category.

I was happy to add two very wearable designs which are both from the early/middle 1960s and thus older than myself. So my Oldie and Goldie Oscarf goes to Gastronomie and Les Coqs.

2023 was also the year when a few long-seached-for personal grails found their way to my mail box - la Femme aux Semelle de vent and Into the Canadian Wild being two of Them.

A third grail gets the prize for Most Well Travelled Turkey. This - my first and currently only - Kermit Oliver was sent from UK and arrived here in Scandinavia 8 weeks later having been in both Mumbai, Italy and the Netherlands. (The Sound of my sigh of relief upon arrival could deserve its own special Sound effects Oscar…)

Will be back tomorrow with nominees for the Good, the bad and the really ugly + Best Scarf Swap.

Wish you all a lovely Day!

You are too funny @HermesEchidna! Your posts are like graphic novel/comic book of like in Scarflandia...These are lovely acquisitions but my personal favorite award is for "Most Traveled Turkey"... :lol: I am glad it finally gobbled its way home to you.

FW2023 in my mind has been more of a B+ sort of season (whereas for me, SS23 was an A). I bought three 90s, a 70, a gavroche, and a twilly.

‘Best of’ for FW2023 for me is easily Parade en Fanfare, as @violetkool and @Living.la.vida.fifi also voted. I’m hugely enthusiastic about this design and would have bought more 90s if any of the other colorways had worked. Mine is cw03 (Bleu Nuit / Beige / Vert Sapin).

From the archives:

It is also my SOTD, mashed up with another darling FW23 piece, Pantin City. These two go together so well it’s silly, and also problematic bc it tends to tempt me to find other scarf ‘pairs’ that I can wear together.

A wonderful pairing of these two @Jereni!

Happy New Year Scarflandia! 🎉

My slide down the orange slope approached avalanche speed last year, not least inspired (or, let’s be honest, enabled :blush:) by the many gorgeous scarves and information shared in this wonderful forum. Here are some of last year's favorites for my Oscarfs nominations:

In the “best new format” (at least for me) category, the winner is the double-face. I added my first two in this format during the year and love them both for their great designs and versatility.

I also “accidentally” added my first multiple this year, when I found this light blue/green ELeK at a very good price and simply couldn’t resist. I am however not quite sure whether to place it in the “Best multiple” or “Best CCP” category, as I am still trying to decide whether to keep or re-home the dark blue/purple cw (which was also a 2023 addition).

In the “Best bargain” the winner is the Les Trésors d’Un Artiste, which I found at less than half price and which quickly became my most used CSGM
View attachment 5922151
And finally the “Best grail addition” goes to the Jaguar Quetzal CSGM I was lucky enough to find a few weeks ago. Now I am just anxiously awaiting another jaguar (and colibri) to hopefully soon join the party, if they ever show up on the European sites..

You had a truly beautiful year-- each and everyone is special and perfect for you @LeneCPH -- and also beautifully tied! I agree with @Nomad's comment-- don't rush on the ELeK-- I have three and thought for sure one would go but it is design worthy of multiples and oyu have two beauties to play with. A great Oscarf post.

Well, I have done my tallying. My 2023 number is a lot, but I am making myself feel better by comparing the number to last year which was more :girlshocked:. At the end of each year, I find it so helpful to take a good look at the year’s ins and outs, as well as hard look at entire collection.
I’ll start with a scarf that wins three awards ;)
“Biggest Bargain” Award AND “Never on my radar but couldn’t pass it up at that price” Award AND I truly am thinking this- “the best scarf ‘on me’ of any in collex” award. I actually glow in it.

Helloooooo Scarflandia!!
I wish you all the very best in 2024 and - ahem - lots of silky adventures!

I am - again - woefully behind… I blame the long holiday weekend(s) and perhaps a tad, a scooch, a weeeeee bit of the Champagne!

So - golly… decisions to make, categories to invent. :giggle:

2023 was a year of several grails (:woot:), and a very soft slide down the CSGM slope… who knew it would be so fun?!?

Without further ado <drumroll>

(Yes - I know that’s a strange choice, but each time I wear it I am astonished at how beautiful it is ❤️)

Wow you have walked away with this category @Cookiefiend-- a very good Oscarf year in this category for sure. And it is such a warm and gentle slide you hardly feel it...

Fantastic finds!! I’m very happy for you!

BTW….I completely agree with your secret approach to scarf acquisitions – I couldn’t stop laughing at your comment! It hits close to home. As for my husband, he’s seen an endless parade of boxes but remains charmingly clueless about the real tally. If he ever finds out, I might have to turn those dark caves into a permanent residence! Keeping the count under wraps is definitely the key to marital harmony, right? 😂🧣 #SecretScarfSociety

This may be a club we all need to belong to @SilkCouture! With its own secret handshake or signature knot...
