Scarf of the Day (Themes on page 1)

[arabesques]

Dear Scarfies,

For the past couple of months, I've been a lurker. I've been working harder than I thought was possible—which is only good because of all the scarves I want this coming season. FW2014 is going to be the BEST scarf season I think. More work=more scarves, yes?

Well, even though promising to restrain myself until the cashmeres flow into the boutiques, I've been discovering scarf treasures. There's only one group in the world to share them with. You.

And for the scarf for today, I would like to share my most precious Hermès scarf yet. The Jamdani stole from 2008, which I found in unworn condition. This is created through a weaving process so revered it has its own UNESCO designation. While the stole has been mentioned in the tPF archives, I cannot find a single picture . . . so here I offer a few.

I discuss this piece far more on my site (see signature) and the reason the piece means so much to me. Thank you for letting me share and clap wildly for being able to hold it after six years of searching . . .

Thank you, Hermes Nuttynut.

You had the blue? Oh how I wish you had sold it to me. You were so lucky to have it even if for a little while . . .

I wish I sold it to you, too.

I love the real artisan crafts Hermes issues. There's something very special about them and the cultures they reflect.

Your dog is adorable! What a cutie! And models very well.

CanuckBagLover, thank you so much! He really is the sweetest little guy!

Vitamina, your poochie is posing so nicely! No drooling on the silk.
Cute cute cute Ballet Aquatique. I was very tempted in the boutique by this adorable design in just about every CW. Would love to see it in action!

Momasaurus, thank you! He is the best model...no complaing at all! I just have to give him a good boy treat and he is happy to have helped!

Silkies!
Looks like as this is my week theme, and I found some leisure time. I love purple, as you can see in the images.
I try to do some action shots with my favourites.

Silkies - I've been MIA again due to having to move out of our temporary rental house into the one we purchased. 😬 so I find myself surrounded by boxes again and having very little time to contribute to tPF. I did however have to move my scarves so thought I would snap a pic while I was at it to add to theme week. Here are the scarves I have that loosely fall into the purple category. I promise to return when I resurface from this move!

MYH, thank you for taking your time to post these beauties for us! Moving is such hard work! Props to you for being so organized to find all your purple lovelies! Congrats on your new home and enjoy all that goes into making it yours!

I have one to contribute! Here is my beloved Pegasus. Purchased at the FSH store during a business trip in 2011.

Not the best photo-- was taken with an iPhone the day I purchased it

Lovetheduns, I am so excited that I have gotten to see this twice this week! Yippe! I just adore this scarf. How special that you purchased this special scarf at FSH! Lucky girl!

Thank you Anfang and VitaminaH for your comments. This is my second contribution to the purple week:

Chasse en Inde and Rubis 35 retourne Kelly:

Birkinmary, you are welcome! Thank you for gracing us with another beautiful silk and a gorgeous K too!

Such lovely choices to behold - clearly there is a passion for purple this week! Sparkle - thanks for the fun theme week - purple haze so appropo for the summer. Here are a few of mine from the archives. Hoping the weather cools a bit for some scarf weather! Must catch up with the past few pages of eye candy!
Quintessence, BdgDD, and Parures GM.

Lanit, I love your BdG DD! Actually, I love all three, but that DD is just stunning!

Arabesques, congratulations on finding this rare and stunning piece! It is truly a piece of art. I am so happy that you shared your excitement and all of these fantastic photos! I agree about Fall; it is going to be a great one!

 

[foulard_addict]

Thank you so much! I look forward to it!!

Vitamina H: you're welcome. I did a little "fashion show" today. Later more images to come. I love it, otherwise I don't get the possibility to wear many of the scarves.
I always tend to wear those that are already wrinkled, but never those sitting in the boxes.

Here we go with the action pic


PD: and please forgive the very 80ies door in the background. Don't have any fancy backgrounds where I stay currently...
