Scarf of the Day (Themes on page 1)

[Greengoddess8]

I can't have or see enough Breton stripes with H silks , and yellow with the stripes is so fresh.



I'm of an age and have decided that it's all in the mind and attitude . You wear this beautiful scarf elegantly in a way that a very young woman couldn't do if she tried . I do sometimes feel that the silks need to be roughed up with something edgy ,so I stick on a pair of Converse or Palladium canvas shoes or a leather jacket.

I so agree with you frou frou! I love making the silks look a bit more edgy

It's yellow-green-white day at my kids' school! Since I don't have a green scarf or even shirt, I had to pull out my only yellow scarf, which contains also green and white. It seems weird with this summery sun, but the color is really nice.

Very pretty on you Melora

You are very welcome Greengoddess8!

 

[Greengoddess8]

I'll never tell!

That's the perfect answer

Oh, well, I already have my bag... DH bought that for me waaaaaay back in June, because prices were going up by a whole bunch on the bag I wanted.

So I already have (and have been enjoying!) my "birthday bag" for months!

Oh yes I remember

Would love to see your bee & pearl necklace... AND your "new find"! Yes, I would say that evil bay has been seducing me lately. And in just 3 short weeks I will be in San Francisco, at the Hermes boutique! I told DH that I hadn't seen many scarves in the new collection that inspired me, so I might walk out empty-handed, and he said "I can't imagine that happening!" You know what? I think he's right!

My two temptations (but it tepends on what CWs they have) are Zebra Pegasus (in either the light pink or hot pink CW) and Le Voyage de Pytheas... but I'd like one with a less-muted border. Not necessarily very bright, but not completely muted, if that makes sense. I called the boutique this morning & spoke to a very nice SA, and she told me they have quite a few of Pytheas in stock, but no pink Zebra Pegasus. However, they are always getting shipments from Paris, so she said in 3 weeks that could changes. We shall see!

I can't wait to see what you come home with from SF I would love the ZP in a 140 shawl!

Hot pink Zebra! Be my twin. It is a very striking and fun scarf.

It looks wonderful on you momasaurus

This ZP's are giving me itchy palms to go to Hermes

Oh, look! Another Cosmos!
Just kidding, it's the same. That's what I love with H scarves

(and no, it's not a stain, it's the sun through the blinds)

textilegirl, your scarf is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo pretty, clever how you have all neatly tucked in.

I thought that I would post a few Ledoux, the beige Napoleon is from 1963, the pink from 1985

Also Nefs d Or 1970s by Ledoux

The boats were made of gold or porcelain, there are some of the objets d art at the Getty museum in LA or the Frick in NY

What gorgeous Ledoux! I bet they are all so soft....thanks for sharing

What gorgeous Ledoux GM's. I am dying over your perfectly matched bracelets!!! I think I need to put visiting your H closet on my bucket list

 

[Greengoddess8]

Wow, I would hate to have to draw our family tree...

This is an old Proues for Ledoux week; the scarf is deliciously supple, and unlike a newer 90cm which can be really bulky, it ties up around the neck with minimal excess fabric. I suppose that's an argument for wearing the heck out of our scarves, then they will be drape-y and soft like butter! Kinda messy, but it was a dream around my neck....

Not messy at all! Stunning
