Bonjour cher(e) ami(e)s et résidents de Scarflandie!
What could be more French than a map of Paris, a marinière and a French biscuit? 🇫🇷
Well… a Madeleine perhaps, but I’ll have to make do

I lost this quote, too! The scarf is fabulous with the jacket and as dramatic as the photos @Croisette7-- I hope to be visiting Lyons next year. Fingers crossed!
I second @Maedi! Miss you here and hope you throw on one of your beauties and stob on by @redheaddem!
Ah, thank you so much dear @Croisette7. One tries....
Thank you so much @FA73-- it was not on my APL (Approved Purchase List) but as we all know, Exceptions Must be Made!!!
I struggle with some designs conceptually also in this way @textilegirl. Filling a format hole is a nice way to add a piece about which there may have been some ambivalence...
Thank you @textilegirl -- I am absolutely enamored of your color explosion and I have had similar experiences with SAs (though not at the mothership). Sometimes they are slow to rise but when they do-- wowza! I absolutely concur the aqua is fabulous.
I was not sure I would keep this Forever version @mktlim (ordered during the price glitch) but the minute I tried it on I knew that I would! You look great-- "adulting" or no!
I hope the force was with you @Redbirdhermes! Could not be a more perfect choice for the Derby and Star Wars Day...
I hope you feel better very soon @bunnycat! I never tire of seeing this lovely moussie. Once again thank you for a wonderful week and, as always for your lovely remarks.
Love the giraffe @EtsyBoss-- congratulations on another amazing Dallet.
This is a beatiful moussie @Cookiefiend -- and what a nice way to be a Cinderella!
Gorgeous pieces @CedarWaxWing -- twins on the vert LL and the pink Duo-- both are fan favorites around here and with good reason. Love the lime green of Yellowstone with your hair and both Duo+ jacket combos. Cobalt is so great with the pink one!
It must be truly fabulous in the bleu jean @Maedi!!! I was over the moon to have found it-- masterpiece is just the right word for it, too. I always forget how useful and pretty the braided carres can look...
Very cute kitty (love his expression!), delightful CU, have fun with the races and thank you for the compliment @Jereni!
You are both so sweet! I will try to pass by more often! Hopefully with some new silk additions too 😊
Very vibrant and vivid colours and pattern! Love how eye catching it is!
Such great colors and your garden is lovely!
Thank you Agrume!
Thanks cutie! ❤️Beautifully tied!
Gorgeous on you! And your garden is spring perfection.
Gotta love a good contrast hem! Stunning on you Cookie!

Am behind and will have to catch up later but today was Kimonos! Love it so much.
A visit to Grasse is amazing. I recommend Molinard, the factory and the store. What a fun trip for you and DD. Your yellow flacons is beautiful against deep blue.
Dear LKB - I definitely remember when this scarf came out in this colorway and I had been eyeing it, AND I thought to myself, I'm guessing LKB is looking at this one too. And then you modeled it! There's something about a white, blue and black color combination for me. And thank you for your kind comments!This looks lovely on you @CedarWaxWing -- I chose it too but never thought of the pattern mixing! And thank you for showing the new ring, which I have been curious about. Query-- is it heavy or about the weight of the perforé?
To your question about the new Chaine d'Ancre: I think it is a compelling piece, and with your bevy of blue scarves, you would have it in frequent rotation.The perforated versions are .5 of one ounce, while the new leather-wrapped one came in at .9 oz. - almost twice as heavy. (Or 14 vs. 25 grams) I have not noticed it feeling heavy, however, and hadn't noticed any difference at all until you asked. The blue leather is a darker duskier teal blue than I anticipated. It's very pretty. I would say the color is quite close to this paint chip from Benjamin Moore - at least that's how it appears on my laptop display... Hopefully this is of help! 😀
Thank you so much for such a wonderful intro! Love that you’ve expanded the theme beyond the city limits of Paris and thus including so many more of our silks…
I adore that poem of Paul Eluard and first encountered it translated to Spanish and later heard this powerful adaptation brilliantly and interpretation by Argentinian singer Nacha Guevara who I feel most lucky to have seen in person…
I would like to share this beloved version with you for I feel it so brilliantly captures the spirit of the poem and I think you will appreciate it.
Can’t wait to see how this great theme will unfold this week

Oooh you have that gorgeous special edition! So jealous!
Can’t get more Parisian than this
Why don’t I have this design?! It is seriously amazing and the pastries show up so well in this CW!
Love this design so much that I have 3 CWs! Like you I am especially fond of that fireworks jacquard
Perfection with that top matching those little rascals!
Ha! I like what you did there!
Fabulous! Such an amazing CW and this knot is magic!
Gaaah! Amazing colors and knocking it out of the park again with the frames
Ties so beautifully all the time… This is my fav CW as well
Quintessentially Parisian, both!
OMG I love Peter Maile! A Year in Provence is probably my fav by him… This is such a wonderful CW
Talk about rare! Wow!
Love this CW… such a fun design
Great interpretation of the theme! And kitty cat steals the show!
I’ve always kicked myself for not getting this one… I was so close! Marvelous CW!!
Love how you are filling in the map! Cavaliers en Forme has some of the most unique and amazing borders… and Rive Gauche is quintessential Paris!We start to fill the map of France!🇫🇷

SOTD was a Paris scarf, too - Rendez-vous Rive Gauche, with so many colour pairing options. I love Rive Gauche, the bookshops, cafés and the Bohemian atmosphere.

Not to forget the rest of France. A recent acquisition was the SE of Cavalier en Formes, for which Gianpaolo Pagni took inspiration from the Imagerie de Nancy. Nancy is a beautiful town in the East of France, not far from Epinal, a Unesco World Heritage site and famous for Place Stanislas and its Art Nouveau buildings, second only to Paris.

This region, the East of France and very West of Germany, were disputed land for centuries, which always makes me melancholic when I come back here. No wonder that one of the founding fathers of Europe, Robert Schuman, came from this region, to safeguard peace. The perhaps most beautiful (and sad) French poem, Le dormeur du Val, is thought to be set there:
Le dormeur du val
C’est un trou de verdure où chante une rivière
Accrochant follement aux herbes des haillons
D’argent; où le soleil de la montagne fière,
Luit; C’est un petit val qui mousse de rayons.
Un soldat jeune bouche ouverte, tête nue,
Et la nuque baignant dans le frais cresson bleu,
Dort; il est étendu dans l’herbe, sous la nue,
Pale dans son lit vert où la lumière pleut.
Les pieds dans les glaïeuls, il dort. Souriant comme
Sourirait un enfant malade, il fait un somme:
Nature, berce-le chaudement: il a froid.
Les parfums ne font plus frissonner sa narine;
Il dort dans le soleil, la main sur sa poitrine
Tranquille. Il a deux trous rouges au coté droit.
The Sleeper in the Valley
It’s a green hole where a river sings
As it madly hangs onto the grass its rags
Of silver; where the sun, from the proud mountain,
Shines down: it’s a little valley bubbling with light.
A young soldier, open mouth, bare head,
And neck bathing in the sweet blue watercress,
Sleeps; he is stretched out among the grass, beneath the skies,
Pale in his green bed where the light rains down.
Feet in the gladiolas, he sleeps. Smiling like
An ill child would smile, he takes a nap:
Nature, cradle him in warmth: he is cold.
Fragrances don’t make his nostrils quiver:
He sleeps in the sun, one hand on his chest,
Motionless: he has two red holes in his right side.
What an amazing pic and scarf on site!!
Oh, great haul! Happy travels!
Perfection! Best scarves on site so beautifully aligned with the theme!
An incredible design in one of the best Cws
Such a wonderful scarf
Both are great but I especially love this CW of Fleurs d’Ecosse!Oh my I see it’s France week! Exciting! I will def have to check out the recent pages.
I will take a photo today and post later. But for now I am sharing a new-in I wore last week. I have been on ban island for a good long time of almost 4 months! I have waited patiently to buy this zouaves bandana, that I loved so much on @LKBNOLA, until I found it below retail. Love it!

This is such a marvelous CW! It is the 70, right? Wish it would’ve been issues as a 90
Both amazing
So beautifully tied!
Fabulous! Wow!
Marvelous design and the art so faithful to the sculptures
Another one following a literary connection… such a great design!
Adore this design… Ties impeccably every single time
Oh how wonderful! That is such a beautiful region and so special to visit with your daughter… You must take this scarf!
This is lovely on you
I love this design but even more in this fabulous CW! Really pops on white!

That Toits scarf on site is amazing!
I’d like to thank @Agrume for such a marvelous introduction and also for guiding us so beautifully and poetically through this fabulous week…
I’ve been MIA as I was traveling in Spain to fulfill a long-time bucket list trip to attend La Feria de Sevilla in Andalucia. Though I did take my Feria de Sevilla scarf and took a scarf on site at the majestic entrance, I wore my La Naissance d’un Idee moussie since I needed a totally red lightweight scarf that day and this one fit the bill on all counts.
La Naissance fits in with this week’s theme since the costumed Artificier holding fireworks is a figure that appeared in Michel Duchene’s Feux d’Artifice which was issued in 1987 to celebrate Hermés’ 150th anniversary. Part of the celebration was a fireworks display held by the house in the heart of Paris that featured uniformed riders like this one. Here I am wearing it at Sevilla’s Plaza de España on my way to the fair, and also in one of the private casetas at the fair
Here is my Feria de Sevilla scarf on site at the entrance of the fair
This past week I wore my orange Tous les Bateaux du Monde and it also fits the theme as the scarf was created as a collaboration between Hermès and Le Musée National de la Marine which is located in Palais Chaillot near Trocadéro in Paris. These pics were taken right outside of it last November when I was in Paris. My shawl at the time was Parures de Samourais.
And, finally Les Jardiniers du Roy depicts the royal gardeners of King Louis XIV at the Court of Versailles
