Well we had our first snow of the season-- five fun inches-- enough to play in and make the season bright and white. I tried to emulate @Redbirdhermes with an outdoor mod shot (flakes were actually still falling) without her success...

And my SOTE is my beautiful Ex Libris en Kimonos. I think my vintage green onyx earrings look very festive, too! It is the longest and darkest night of the year so I am happy to have this bright colorful shawl for warmth and cheer.

No sophisticated drink pairings for me but my little granddaughter is very excited to have a recipe for "Unicorn Hot Chocolate" and we've rounded up the ingredients for tomorrow (white chocolate, whipped cream, rainbow sprinkles and food coloring). Sigh. The things we do...If I were so inclined, I might hit it with a shot of Kahlua, right?

What stunning colors @Lellabelle!SOTD is space derby, black and gold. I’m in a starry night place this week, evidently

Cocktail to accompany it is a Claridge (like the London hotel), a Friday night favourite. Easy and tasty. Recipe below:
1oz gin
1oz dry vermouth (Noilly prat, for preference)
0.5oz apricot brandy
0.5oz cointreau
Shake over ice, and enjoy cold with a twist of lemon peel for garnish.

SOTD Les Girouettes in a fun cw.
Just beautiful @Nomad!I am actually twins with you, yay! I saw it on an instagram page in 2020 and knew that was the cw I had to have. I contemplated rehoming it for a bit because it Is really dark on me, but I love the color drama in it too much. Everything in this is so sharp and bright. I have paired with light denim tops at times too to lighten the dark look on me which has worked too.

This is a wonderful combination @darkstar66!Sometimes, it has just to sparkle! As much as I love my CSGMs and their cosiness, warmth and ability of being throw-on-and-go, my silks are very precious to me because of their glow and their subtlety. And for me, Annie Faivre is a master in bringing out these elements to their perfection, her colours dance and sparkle, a pure delight for me.View attachment 6105320View attachment 6105322
I think it is festive @GloWW0rM -- look at all that pine green... makes me think of trees and wreaths...Not your typical holiday design but happy dogs bounding around is always festive in my books!

Lovely! I hope you have happy holidays and easy travels @Jereni!Aaaahhh meant to post this yesterday but was so busy packing and getting the house ready for our trip. My newer En Liberté yesterday. I would venture to say this is one of my most festive scarves now.

Beautiful @Foxy trini and a gorgeous lippie to match-- so nice to see you! Happy holidays to you and your family, too.Quick car post. Happy holidays scarf friends! Thank you for this thread, these days I lurk more than participate, but love it all the same ❤️
Wonderful and perfect holiday design @Croisette7!!! Do you have a blue one also? I loved your gorgeous pink one from earlier as well...
I thought I remembered you having this also @mktlim!!! It always elicits so many comments... andTwins on the ELEK @LKBNOLA! 🤩 I do agree it gives off very festive vibes.
I hope you really add a splash of Kahlua to your hot chocolate!
Love your fluffy coat and Twins on the Madison Party, LKB. Five inches is perfect for a festive coating of white. Little GS loves his dark brown hot chocolate just fine. Will need pictures of your spiked Pink concoction, if you go there. 🤩Well we had our first snow of the season-- five fun inches-- enough to play in and make the season bright and white.

You look beautiful in both. That cw of Ex Liberia is so pretty. Safe travels.Love it on the bright background! This scarf is so hella joyous.
Darling! I love purple on you. Charming scarf that goes great with your charming smile!
Your first Christmas market??!! Say it ain’t so! Hope you are having a marvelous time.
YES. Get it, girl! MrJ would prob love that, he’s a big fan of sours.
This is GREAT. So vivid.
Love that building!!! When I was in Amsterdam some years back, that was the Chanel boutique. Even better that is it now H! I was fascinated by the way they’d done the glass bricks so that they bled gradually into the real brick.
Very beautiful! I agree, I love my CSGMs but there is just something about the sheen and glow of a silk.
Beauty and festivity all around. The GT is indeed glorious. Thank you for hosting this very special week.🫶🙌❤️View attachment 6105445

Happy Birthday, Tea! Looking forward to seeing your birthday purchase.I had a lovely milk punch cocktail at my birthday dinner at a Nordic-Asian restaurant. I didn’t wear any H today, but a scarf I’ve been stalking was finally discounted this morning and I hit the purchase button - more details to come!
View attachment 6105651
I love these soft colors on you! I hope things are cleared up from the storm soon.
Thank you @HermesEchidna! As you know, Scarf Mail is the Best Mail!
Thank you @Gourmetgal-- for years I have shopped at It's All Goode-- one of the most knowledgeable and trusted resellers I have worked with. Many wonderful finds there over the years...including this one! And she often helps find items on a wish list, too. Otherwise, I try my luck at the usual places like TRR, especially if they permit returns.
Thank you so much @Jereni!
Thank you @bunnycat and that is a power scarf to scare a cold off if ever there was one!!! Don't mess with a girl in a black and gold moussie or else... Thank you so much for a marvelous week graciously hosted under stressful health circumstances...
Thank you @Maedi! My one and only Poret and likely to remain so-- it pleases me that the the color is so luminous and the doves so delicately colored. I could just stare at it for hours... The Nuees was a happy surprise!
It is no less gorgeous on you for being Amazones rather than GTN @GloWW0rM! And thank you for your lovely comments. I am insanely jealous that you had frequent work trips to Moscow and if you ever do acquire this scarf, you will have to put some photoshop expertise in place to create a proper scarf on site! You look adorable dressed for a Russian winter. (and thank you for the comments)
That brooch with the shawl is marvelous @Karenska. I hope you had a lovely time with your family.
This "confetti" cw is so pretty and festive @Redbirdhermes. You inspired me to add this design with this lighter cw!
Oh @PoliticalGal -- this Tyger Tyger shawl is simply stunning. An extremely covetable cw. What I do not envy you is a long car ride with restless kids!
I know what you mean @JavaJo-- not only colors, but sometimes even the design elements are similar-- although it is not stylistically the same as Orphee at all, here is another radial design with animals and another beautiful blue and it also ties beautifully... sigh. Did you add the new Katie Scott as well?
Beautiful @Helena7 but mainly, I am gad to hear that you are ok and I hope things clear up and get back to normalcy soon!

Season’s Greetings, dear Scarfies, as we enter the final seventeen days of the year and begin the many religious and cultural celebrations of light with our families and friends. Many thanks to @bunnycat for hosting T-Z week. No doubt we are all busy doing something associated with the upcoming holidays, or more likely, MANY things. This week we’ll help celebrate the warmth and goodness of this “so hallowed and so gracious” time by showing off our seasonal beauties.
Let It Snow: winter-themed and festive scarves, chic holiday styling, or pair your scarf with a holiday cocktail or mocktail!
A scarf that always makes its appearance during the holidays is the lovely Joies d’Hiver by Joachim Metz, brimming with gorgeous details.
View attachment 6102907
This jacquard treasure depicts a wintry scene of Victorian skaters in their fashionable finery. There are not one but two jacquard skater motifs designs and it has the added beauty of matte blanc overlay, a technique that adds paint, often white, for special effects. In this design, the technique is employed for ice and snow (thank you @Ashanti_Rose for providing a definition of matte blanc on another thread in January 2023).

Another gorgeous seasonal scarf is Plumes et Grelots by Julie Abadie. It, too, is a jacquard fabric featuring a holly and berries design - so very pretty. This is my favorite colorway. I don’t own this design and I would love to see some mod shots of those who do own this lovely silk.
View attachment 6102897
So let’s see your wintry delights and remember, any scarf you choose to show is welcome, on-theme or not.
Sparkling Apple Punch (from Sur la Table)
View attachment 6102904
For a 1½ gallon beverage jar
Pour the cans of apple juice and the bottle of ginger ale into the beverage jar. Add ice and stir. Add slices of apple on top for decoration.
- 2 (12-ounce) cans of frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
- 2 liters of ginger ale
- Ice to fill
- 2 sliced apples for decoration
These two look like ice dancers!
