Fêtes Venitiennes is a wonderful choice, Lkb, and such a lovely cw. Your Retour is gorgeous.
Beautiful choices, Croisette, and that brooch

Thank you Croisette!
Thank you kindly Helena!
Thank you Jereni!
Thank you for hosting bingo this week @bunnycat.
That Sweet Dreams ties like a dream.And is making me consider adding it to my list
It was my pleasure. There were several really good colorways. I don't think any of them would "do you wrong". 
Awesome end to your Bingo week! That Colibri is just stunning.Happy Sunday, hope I can sneak in the last bingo update, before the new theme starts. My only marble scarf is this twilly, which adds a small punch of happy colors to any outfit.

I have pretty much had a two scarfs a day habit most of the winter, wearing a silk scarf and then throwing on a CSGM whenever going outside. It is starting to be a bit more spring-like here, but the temperatures are still pretty low, so am wearing Le Jaguar et Le Colibri on top of the twilly, with a matching lippy. This is also my most recent addition to my large formats.
After seeing the stunning mod-shots of this in the seasonal thread, I was checking several of the European sites daily for this, but it didn't make an appearance until January. Once it popped up on the French site, I pulled that trigger so fast!

Thank you kindly LKB! I slept until almost 10am today. So glad I managed a full night's rest for once.Thank you @Ashanti_Rose-- the sepia Cabanes must be truly lovely! Mine is the encre/blanc-- such a magical magical design. Well, they all are, to be honest! I feel lucky to have found the ones I have collected...
Congratulations first of all on your two new-ins! The losange is so special and the bandana is going to be fabulous with denim as you have shown @Karenska.
I am glad I brought a giggle to your day @Cookiefiend-- I love your Claque au Vents and as a fellow-traveler on BdG love your collex is just...
Very pretty hem @Locquaciousloc.
Oh, my. I would love to see your cw @textilegirl-- it seems to be shown here so rarely and the design is sublime ! One to get lost in...
Wonderful @Jereni! Isn't it amazing how every side is unique? Also do you have a new hairstyle? You look even more luminous than ususal!!!
Tied Up in Knots with your cardi is just fantastic @LeneCPH and as your sister 12 Leopards lover, your cw is swoon-worthy!
Beautiful @SilkCouture and oh, yes the boxes from So French So Chic are amazing. I have several here and in New Orleans. You inspired me to rearrange at least one shelf yesterday with my scarf books and boxes. A sort of altar-- or a start to one, anyway.

I have seen that gorgeous green one @Winter4!!! It is a beauty. I am delighted to be your blue sister on that one...I wish there were more Houtin designs-- I only am aware of four...
This looks great @JavaJo!
Thank you @Maedi! It was an early acquisition and a sentimental fave.
Shhhhh!!! Please @FA73, do not say that quiet part out loud. We will all get into big trouble....
Really great jacket/scarf pairing @Teaforparrots and look at your garden grow...spring feels very slow here this year.
I love seeing mod shots of this @Helena7-- I am your twin on the khaki and wore it for the first time recently. It is a very happy design.
Oh, wow! This is so serenely beautiful @Cookiefiend-- the most perfect neutral moussie! Definitely a wish list item.
I love this lipstick so much I bought a second one and now I may need a back up for that one @HermesEchidna! It goes with so many many scarves...
Thank you @Jereni! I love a good scarf/shoe pairing. Two obsessions though thankfully the ratio of shoes to scarves is much much lower than one:one.
What a great closing post @bunnycat! I love Scarf Tales of every kind and you are a great storyteller! Your (our) Sweet Dreams was worth every single minute of the wait. It looks phenomenal with your jacket! #inspiration And thank you again for a fun and fabulous week. Now try to get some rest!
Thaty's fab on you! Worth falling off "the wagon" for. Love the lippy match to scarf as well.Hello!
I am not sure it merits more bingo-squares but this is my sotd for a Walk in the Sun by the harbour today.

On another note : confession time.
I claimed in my last post that I could not chose what scarf to treat myself with when embargo ends in May.
Well. Ban Island became treasure Island instead. By total accident (I swear! - it was to get away from sudden rain) I ended in the H boutique on Friday with DH (who had never been there before…bless him).
I have been partly unhappy, partly relieved that none of the Precious Paradise cws has appealed to me - way too much cream, white, light blue and peach. But lo and behold - a Golden version with some purple, red and green presented itself.
So I did a thing.
I still have not decided what next to aquire, but that choise will now not need to happen before June or July
But who Can resist purple pengiuns, otters and a red zebra ?

Happy Sunday, dear Scarflandia, and I hope this spring day is a good one for all. Many thanks to @bunnycat for hosting a truly delightful theme and to all who posted and showed off your beauties. Now let’s move on from games to music.
A Pretty Scarf is Like a Melody

The American composer and lyricist Irving Berlin wrote the song from which our theme is derived in 1919. My beloved Dad would sing this pretty tune to me when I was a wee one, a cherished memory, for sure. Here is a snazzy interpretation by the great jazz saxophonist, Coleman Hawkins.
Irving Berlin wrote an estimated 1500 songs during his 60-year career, including the scores for many Broadway shows and Hollywood films. It goes without saying that he is an icon of 20th century popular American music. And inspiring us today to look at our scarves from a musical perspective!
Do you sometimes don a scarf and feel just perfectly lovely and light-hearted, the world sunny and bright? Does a scarf that you own sometimes recall a special song or musical piece? Which scarves make your heart sing?
Musique des Spheres by Zoe Pauwels, one of my first gavs, is not only music-themed but also reminds me of so many classical pieces featuring viols. Internet photo to see the design. It is also reminds me of the famous Leonardo drawing, Vitruvian Man in style.

I love the dark burgundy and black of this beauty and I love pairing it with this b&w floral, toile-like sweater.

Show us your music or danced-themed scarves or the scarves that remind you of music. And remember, any scarf of the day is welcome!
Beautiful opening Karenska! The floral sweater with the MdesS gav is inspiring! (And you reminded me we are twins on it- as long as it counts to be twins if I borrow it from MrBcat...
)Bee-yooo-teee-ful LKB! You are very "at home" in a really wide variety of colors.
Love both these on you. Gorgeous Croisette! That green in the Fleurs is so fresh.
They did such a great job on the Jaguar et Colibri. Great colorways all around and the blue is no exception. And good job working magic on those poor flat hems!
Another fabulous Colibri colorway! Enjoy this last patch of cool. In July we are all going to be crying, I'm sure and this will just be a fond memory.
It figures my quotes would drop at least one. Thank you GloWW0rM!
Thank you for the lovely introduction to Music Week, @Karenska. I particularly enjoyed seeing your La Musique des Spheres pretties. This is a design that I had been looking for since I began collecting Hermès scarves and it finally came my way last year.
But, I'm going to start the week with my red wabi-sabi Turandot. I was delighted last week to read @Sickgrl13 's story of her Turandot rescue scarf. I purchased my damaged red plisse Turandot for the same reason she did. It was an affordable entry for an otherwise expensive grail. After washing and ironing I have a beautiful imperfect scarf that still has lots of life and which I'm not afraid to wear.
Turandot is my scarf of the day.

Wish you all a wonderful Sunday!
“I did a thing” - I say that alot when I’ve unexpectedly been bad to my wallet. As opposed to purposely being bad to my wallet
.It’s absolutely stunning, RBH, and don’t we love our rescued scarves. I’m trying to rescue my CdC which, despite MANY washings, stubbornly will not be free of the terrible perfume odor that satched it by its previous owner. Not sure what my next move is but it is indeed in quarantine. I won’t let it near by other scarves.
The song “Tea for 2” by Count Bassie and Ella Fitgerald plays in my head whenever I wear this scarf with the same name
I'm discontented with homes that I've rented
So I have invented my own
Darling, this place is a lovely oasis
Where life's weary taste is unknown
Far from the crowded city
Where flowers pretty caress the stream
Cozy to hide in, to live side by side in
Don't let it apart in my dream
Picture me upon your knee
Just tea for two
And two for tea
Just me for you
And you for me alone
Nobody near us to see us or hear us
No friends or relations
On weekend vacations
We won't have it known
That we own a telephone, dear
Day will break and I'll wake
And start to bake a sugar cake
For you to take for all the boys to see
We will raise a family
A boy for you
And a girl for me
Can't you see how happy we would be?
Picture you upon my knee
Just tea for two

Thank you, Karenska, for a terrific introduction!
And many thanks to @bunnycat for a wonderful (and playful) week of scarf Bingo! It was also entertaining to Mr. Agrume (who, I am afraid to say) still opposes a scarf gift vault, as I have (more than) enough scarves (in his view). He may be right, objectively, but what is enough to one of us?
I second the others, what a great brooch! perfect pairing with the green scarf.
Both are gorgeous, LKB ... congrats on your new blue FV.
Awillow, love your blue Jaguar!
Thank you textilegirl ... it's lilac.
Just wonderful on you!

On Friday I was just back from a trip to NYC and trying to catch up with work but I made some time for daffodils and Jan B!
Thank you so much, bunnycat!Thank you Croisette!
Thank you kindly Helena!
Thank you Jereni!
Awesome end to your Bingo week! That Colibri is just stunning.
Thank you kindly LKB! I slept until almost 10am today. So glad I managed a full night's rest for once.
Thaty's fab on you! Worth falling off "the wagon" for. Love the lippy match to scarf as well.
Beautiful opening Karenska! The floral sweater with the MdesS gav is inspiring! (And you reminded me we are twins on it- as long as it counts to be twins if I borrow it from MrBcat...
Bee-yooo-teee-ful LKB! You are very "at home" in a really wide variety of colors.
Gorgeous Croisette! That green in the Fleurs is so fresh.
They did such a great job on the Jaguar et Colibri. Great colorways all around and the blue is no exception. And good job working magic on those poor flat hems!
Another fabulous Colibri colorway! Enjoy this last patch of cool. In July we are all going to be crying, I'm sure and this will just be a fond memory.
many thanks, LKB ... which cw do you have?
Thank you kindly, Karenska!Fêtes Venitiennes is a wonderful choice, Lkb, and such a lovely cw. Your Retour is gorgeous.
Beautiful choices, Croisette, and that brooch
Well, that’s a witty association, Awillow, and such a gorgeous cw. I will have to study your hem rehab tut soon!
Haha! It is mine but DH wears it as a pocket silk. He now has his own H pocket silk, though - Biblioteque - perfect for my bookworm, and I haven’t worn it yet…Thank you Croisette!
