Scarves Scarf of The Day 2023- Which Hermès scarf are you wearing today?

[LKBNOLA]

Heeheehee
(it is a fab scarf - I ❤️ Both of mine)

A Fd’E has found it’s way to you?!? I’m thrilled for you!

@LKBNOLA I echo @Cookiefiend with her asking if you got an ecosse!?!? I stopped in tracks and reread it to make sure. Please show us!

Here it is @Cookiefiend and @Nomad-- from my post during the holiday week. I cut and pasted this from the old thread.
"I am celebrating the start of Chanukah tonight, but I love all mid-winter festivals. Today I am sharing a new to me Fleurs d'Ecosse which splits the difference between Chanukah's blue colors and the red we associate with Christmas, merging the two into a lovely tartan plaid, which would make my Argentine-Scottish grandparents proud. I own this lovely scarf thanks to our own @Snausages, so it also celebrates the joy of scarf friendship as well as all the seasonal delights!"

Sotd. Fun border on cocottes de soie. Silk is a big fav design for me. One less item in my closet though haha. The Shawl sweater is currently in the donate pile due to being allergic to the wool in it . Immediate improvement when took off when got home.

I love this scarf! Just look at that border@Nomad! And thank goodness you got that wool off-- I react that way to certain blends-- no fun at all but you look very chic...

Yes yes I remember now! Thank you for showing us again. I actually went on a hunt for it after seeing this. I am going to ccp one of mine.
And thanks. I love this design so much

I see 2 on eBay like @LKBNOLA's. I've been considering but just not sure about that being the right colorway. I am hoping to find one with green in it or at least several colors that really show off how intricate tartans are. With Scottish ancestry and also on my husband's side too... he wore his father's kilt to our wedding with bagpiper and all the groomsman too... Scotland runs strong in our house! I know I'll eventually end up with one (I have to!)

 

[Snausages]

@Kareska Great cw for this.

@MAGJES Oh wow, love your CSGM, cute lavender border.

@cali_to_ny I didn’t realize Sur Mon Nuage has such a fab hem!

@Stylehound Both looks are great, but what a match with the casual dress

@Snausages So many pink beauties!

TY @Nhare - I’m a sucker for pink

So many wonderful posts, pictures and stories that I am having trouble keeping up. Great hems, borders and styling in Scarflandia!

Cross-over share from me. It has a border and a multi-coloured happy hem for this week’s theme and is also apropos to last week, as like @Nomad one of my resolutions is to enjoy my favourites more, rather than let them languish in the drawer.
Also, following @Coco2606’s example, I am trying to ”shop my collection” to help me resist new season temptation. CW01 of Rendez-vous galant has been whispering to me. It’s not available at the moment where I am, which is helping… a little. I keep telling myself I prefer twill and that I much prefer 90 to 70 size. I am lucky to have a few of Ugo’s designs already, so this is a perfect candidate to consider what I already have. @Coco2606 did an amazing job of exceeding the promise of Jardin des Pientres and @Redbirdhermes also gave us a great example of using wardrobe colours to add to the recreation. Continuing in their footsteps, here’s my best attempt for RVG CW01:

Here’s the Rendezvous CW01 for reference. From the Hermes site.

Do I still need it?

@Lellabelle this is 100% a keeper!

I love them ALL. Sister on WS. The last one is just...whaou

Somebody asked for contrasted hems. Here is "Jardin à Sintra" !
View attachment 5688951

To stick to last week resolution, here is the comparaison between closet/new scarf. Both have contrasted hems. What do you think ? View attachment 5689136

View attachment 5689135

TY @Coco2606 - will post a flat photo of Pierre which I often refer to as the weirdest scarf ever

That Sintra is amazeballs - I’ve never seen that colorway! And that’s one reason I vote no on the Annie F double face: the colors you have already in your closet (and wearing two scarves intertwined is delightful!) and you’ve got the hem covered with Sintra.

My SOTD is on theme - I would say the bright red hem on my Hermes Galaxy definitely makes me happy!
View attachment 5688996

From the archives:
I usually avoid wide borders like the plague. The one exception in my collection is my Regard de L'Arctique, where I just love the contrast between the lively mustard border and the navy background. Plus the border has these adorable seals and walruses in the corners
View attachment 5688997View attachment 5688998

More from the archives: Few things make me happier than the contrast of the shockingly pink hem against the grey of Hermes Galaxy



View attachment 5689403

Twinning on the first Galaxy @ajaxbreaker and in love with the second as well as that Arctique!

Does anyone do borders better than Honoré??

These are all fabulous scarves @Pirula and the outfits and knots are icing on the cake

Good day, ScarfLovers, it’s going to be a busy next few days and I will indeed wear a SOTD daily, but I’m going to bolster this week’s theme with some archives, too. Tohu Bohu, plisse-ed, makes for a rather buoyant and fun hem:

Minette raiding my scarf drawer. Hmmm, I think she’s upstaging her Mama. My Beauty Queen.
View attachment 5689041

SOTD Balade en Berline losange with its geometric and dotted border. A perfect walking scarf!
View attachment 5689118

The scarves are nice @Karenska but Minette is definitely a scene stealer and she looks lovely in her gav!

Going to try to do more than like your posts this morning after my Zoom meeting. Wearing the graphic wonder Les Ailes de la Soie-- another example of a great hem plus border combo. Tied two ways to let her strut her stuff: tight pleated knot to show off a sassy black hem (inspired by @Nomad's mod shot of yesterday) and long Rando tie to show the border... Happy Wednesday, Scarflandia!

View attachment 5689090

All are wonderful @Snausages and such great knots to show their hems-- I always love seeing that Pierre Loti-- such amazing colors-- I hope you will show it flat for scarfies unfamiliar with it!


Thank you @Maedi, @Nhare and @EtsyBoss-- honestly my knots are deceptively easy and I do strive to match them to the element of the scarf I am trying to highlight; but I worry that no one is seeing the beautiful silks-- just the knots! Maybe time to retreat to some basic ties... I will get to putting up a photo tutorial very soon @Nhare and I will tag you when I do. I appreciate hearing that they seem not too contrived because my first criteria is that I am a person not a mannequin so they have to work in motion!

It would be amazing @Karenska-- with any black or white hemmed scarf or any of the new print hems like Nuage and Space Derby...

Perfect for a walk and such a cool border @Karenska...

I honestly think you have this covered in your closet @Coco2606 and @Lellabelle too with that Space Derby/Rendez Vous example.


@Cookiefiend-- I know you know that Les Ailes de la Soie is fab because @Croisette7 and your mod shots were the ones that made me CCP my other one! and today you have another beauty that I just became your sister on! Gorgeous cw...

Superb cw for you @EtsyBoss...Red is so good on you!

The only way I could twin harder with you on this post is if I acquired two such adorable cats! And that would require me to rehome my perfectly delightful DH who is so so so allergic... Sigh. Love everything about this @bunnycat and so nice to see Pickles-- clearly he is always ready for his close up!

@LKBNOLA ty for the hem love and holy schmoly that Ailes!

One of my favorite designs is Appaloosa des Steppes with its magnificent pony surrounded by gorgeous textiles and trimmed with a nifty border and hem.

View attachment 5689119

That is such a pretty colorway @Redbirdhermes and a perfect match with the top. Love the pops of green

Think H finally caught on that us scarf lovers go Gaga over contrasting hems and cool borders lol! Here is my choice today- Plumes en Fete with marvelous taupe hem on yellow.

View attachment 5689129

That yellow and black are beautifully dramatic @lanit

Thank you sweetheart and Coco sends you smooches!

oh my gosh - this is stunning!


Thank you and I'll keep an eye out for you!

Thanks cutie!

Wow!!!
I love seeing your Pierre Loti - such a great colorway and an unusual scarf!

Awww - thank you dear Nhare!

Spectacular!
As to whether or not you *need* it... only your heart can answer that!

oooooo gorgeous!

It makes me happy too - thank you for the happy smile!

Navy and mustard together are perfect - such a great contrast but not a harsh contrast. The seals and walruses are the icing on the cake!

Uh... no!

Yes please!

Winds-day with the warm gray, fantastic border and delicious hem of Fleurs d’Ecosse
View attachment 5689229

TY for the compliment and hello to that stunning Ecosse! Love those colors and now I’m on the hunt

Went with Selle des Steppes again because I was liking it with purple. Bobby seems dubious

View attachment 5689232

Like Karenska and Minette, Bobby is upstaging your amazing scarf @Teaforparrots. Is he giving you side eye for a reason or is he always cheeky?

Acte III, Scene I, La Clairiere... CSGM with a fabulous border and subtle contrast trim.​

"The name of this design is taken straight from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Written in the late 16th century, this enchanting comedy of errors draws its humour from the confusion caused by falling in love. In a magical forest, young lovers, a theatrical troupe, fairies and elves cross paths and commingle in endless plot twists. In the moonlight, Titania, queen of the fairies, her eyelids impregnated with a love potion, falls madly in love with Bottom, an actor metamorphosed into an ass. In this illustration of the scene, Édouard Baribeaud pays homage to Baroque theatre, Indian miniatures and early cinema."

View attachment 5689273

@EtsyBoss wow that colorway is fantastic! Red and khaki are such a great combo!

Fabulously happy hems Snausages!

The happiest of happy hems in a very very bright orange on the multicolor Sweet Dreams. (Also- no black anywhere!)

View attachment 5689304

And also from this week- Chorus Stellarum with the fab lime green hem (that is not showing up well in my pic...)

View attachment 5689307


Plus, a cameo with Miss Snickers.

View attachment 5689306

And because I couldn't leave him out. It wouldn't be fair since Snickers got a photo op.

Sir Pickles awaits tribute on his throne. (PS- I love how the pillows match both Pickles and the bench... )

View attachment 5689305

TY @bunnycat - and again, more beautiful scarves upstaged by kitties! Snickers would love to show off the green hem of CS and Pickles is envisioning himself as one of the dream creatures in SD

Oooo. So much hem eye candy. The white hem and bubblegum is so fun off the dark charcoal cardi. And I always love seeing awoo w that hem but My eye can’t stop looking at how cool of an asymmetrical black vest that is you are wearing. And I am loving your pattern mixing w Loti. I love all the colors in it, but will have to google the design because I don’t know it. Twins in Singapore and I love it so much. I’ll wear mine too

Sotd. Fun border on cocottes de soie. Silk is a big fav design for me. One less item in my closet though haha. The Shawl sweater is currently in the donate pile due to being allergic to the wool in it . Immediate improvement when took off when got home.
View attachment 5689491

TY @Nomad - it’s funny but the dogs on Woof Woof really get lost in the Pegase but the hem makes my heart skip a beat. Love your border and can’t wait to see your WS (looking for inspo on what to wear it with beyond red)

 

[Snausages]

TY @Nomad @Cookiefiend and @LKBNOLA for the Pierre Loti love. Here’s a flat photo - you can see why I refer to it as the weirdest scarf ever. I love things that make the uninitiated think ‘Hermes did THAT?!’ which is yet another reason I love Jan Bajtlik

Anyhow, Pierre Loti was an eccentric naval explorer known for his wild diaries

 

[Snausages]

Twinning with @Redbirdhermes and I think many other Silken Sisters with Costumes de Fete - the border is absolutely dreamy

 

[Teaforparrots]

Like Karenska and Minette, Bobby is upstaging your amazing scarf @Teaforparrots. Is he giving you side eye for a reason or is he always cheeky?

Always cheeky!

 

[Maedi]

I am your scarf ring twin, too, and I would HAPPILY copy this tie with a silk if I knew the knot name. And is it Mai Tai’s? Thanking you, Maedi or @LKBNOLA for your help .

I may need replicating help, too

I know I'll eventually end up with one (I have to!)

You definitely need one!! It can be so hard to tell accurate colors in this design because the dots in the design create colors that pictures often don’t capture. And I just found out that it might have come in a 140!?!? I would need to do some more research to know it wasn’t a fake but I am very very intrigued by this find

TY @Nhare - I’m a sucker for pink

I am on the search for more of this rusty orange at retailers because I love it. But this sweater isn’t all season obv. And I have a surprising amount of scarves to go w this purple color including my cyclamen costumes

I just can’t handle how amazing this design is. Your second tie w the flutter tails is perfection! And the blue top is perfect

Oops meant this post to go on the seasonal thread.

This one shows the blue base color a little better with an extra animal thrown in for good measure. Meet Isadora who will be four in March. She’s our funny, adorable, active Portuguese Water Dog.

It's that your knots are so aesthetically pleasing and obvious to the onlooker that you're tying to bring out the design. All around fabulous.

I love it with the rust colored cardigan and have found this color very scarf friendly, too.
