Yes,might be Acer rubrum, lol, funny how I key in on floral and botanical' s in real life and silk
Thank you, Florasun. The border color is tangerine, which scared me a lot at first. If I anchor the scarf with a purple or hunter green blouse I feel better!
The scarf ring is one of MaiTai's middle sizes. I have 2 in this size and I forget what they are called!
It's called the Classique Moyenne... and I use my rosewood one a lot!!! Such a useful size for holding the silk nicely tight without choking it.Thank you, Florasun.

Well done ElainePG!I'm spending the weekend at a haiku conference; wearing a different one of my Japanese-themed scarves every day. (I have three; fortunately, the conference only lasts 3 days!
In keeping with our autumn theme, here is an autumn-toned Ikebana arrangement that one of the group's members brought to the conference.
And a haiku I wrote today (the assignment was to write a haiku about birds):
crows shriek blue murder
within cypress tree branches
a hawk unruffled
Thank you, dear!
Your trip to Morocco looked amazing - and what a gorgeous pic with the mousse in the dunes. H should use it for an ad
Thank you sophie, the trip to Morocco was really amazing in any possible way, it's hard to define, just incredible!
Thank you Florasun for your kind words. The desert is beautiful, the feeling of freedom, immensity, the warmth of the berber people... I wish you could see the beauty of the stars there... the whole experience is unforgettable!
Thank you Melora
I told you before I absolutely love this picture... and what could I possibly love more??? The fact that you are wearing a Fantaisies Mousse on top of a sand dune!!!! How Ironic....
Thank you IF, are you having a great B-Day?

Thank you Bova, Elaine and Maedi, it's a pleasure to share with you all.
Thank you, Melora. I have only recently started wearing green, so I know what you mean.
I have built a winter wardrobe on black/grey/red/dark pink, soI can mix and match everything. I may try to add a piece of green to highlight the green on my Noël au 24 Faubourg. I won't use it now in California, but it may be useful when I'm in Europe for Christmas
it doesn't look awkward, you look beautiful. But like I said, it's easier in front of a big mirror.
BirkinMary, the way you stage your scarves is a delight. And the next to last surpasses them all. Were you trying to prove that white is an autumn color?
I ordered twillys online in the US, and they came with the tag. Not very useful since there is only one cw for those
gorgeous! But you're not supposed to try to hide your lips: they're what makes us know it's your picture when we scroll too fast
Urgh. The pun is the lowest form of humor, you know. And I would say you're out of "key".
(Actually, I'm just jealous I didn't think of it first!)
are you saying that you like mon-key more that tah-key?
(Mon means my, ta means your)
(bad pun... pretend I'm not even here)

Thank you for sharing the picture and the haiku
You know, the thread is call Scarf of the day, not Scarf of the theme. Just saying....
It's called the Classique Moyenne... and I use my rosewood one a lot!!! Such a useful size for holding the silk nicely tight without choking it.
I have the mother of pearl one, and it's pretty useful too
I also have some in plastic, that were actually belt buckles, and they're nice as their color blend in with the matching scarf.
Thank you IF, are you having a great B-Day?
Yesssss!!!

OT
You express the silence and the hawk with a resolute attitude through your haiku?
I ask you because I am trying to understand the meaning of your haiku, using Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English....
By the way, I own 70cm vimtage silk which has the border in cypress green and the tropical birds as central motifs, which look like the bird of paradise in the Ikebana in your pic, not the hawk.

Thanks Croisette7, 14H, ElainePG, CanuckBagLover, Bova123, cherryblossum and pierina for you kind words! Fall is definitely the best time to visit Chicago - in between when a twilly tied to a bag handle would be smothering in the humidity and when your CSGM might get blown away by icy blasts. But great architecture.
