The brown suggestion is brilliant...had not considered that one. I have a brown tweed sleeveless shift (not too dark) dress that might look great with this teal scarf...if I pair it with chocolate brown boots and my chocolate box K28 (worn with the strap) I might actually make this scarf work....
Thank you!

Sigh, I adore brown, and that shift with those boots and chocolate box K (heavenly, oh my goodness) you describe is my dream outfit. You could probably accessorize with a spare tire around your neck and look good in something like that, so I am very optimistic for your Mors. I am so happy if I helped! Let us know how it turns out!

Are we still doing the “scarf fails” theme?

Here are my top 3 Twillies that don’t see much action. The orange colors just don’t suit me very well so I tie them to my saddle colored bags. Any twilly that doesn’t look great with my clothes gets tied to my bags. :lol:

I still love them, though, especially the black/rust Bolduc one. I’m working towards getting my first Hermés bag to dedicate that one to.

I think orange tends to be a little difficult to work with unless one loves Halloween??????

I am growing into oranges due to its prominence with H - have a Bolduc 90 but luckily the ribbon colour is not black but a more subdued darkish grey/brown - your Halloween reference is spot on :-) - Just love the orange with the crisp white!

I thought so too, but ended up with a pile of orange anyway. Didn't even realize how many I had till we did orange week in October. Apart from some wariness regarding the sheer boldness of the colour, I found that quite a few shades of orange actually suit me. It's a happy colour :girlsigh:

Let me know if there's a better thread for this question: I bought a scarf secondhand and it already had the care tag removed. There is a little thread sticking out of the corner that I suspect is from the care tag. I can easily tie the scarf to hide this corner, but for my own satisfaction, I'd prefer to pull out that thread. I looked around for tips but most have to do with adjusting pulls in scarfs. Any suggestions on loose thread removal at the corner of a scarf? I'm afraid to tug very hard.

Well dearest silkies, after all that, and all your help, and the good solutions that we found for making it work better, I have sold my Soirée.

Please don’t think me ungrateful. It just made me realize that like a bad boyfriend she was way more trouble than she’s worth and it’s not love. And as I think you will all agree, it really should be love for these babies and enjoyable, not a chore.

A friend with warmer coloring than mine fell in love with it. So it’s going to a good, healthy and more fulfilling relationship where she will see the light of day much more often and be able to shine.

I admit to second thoughts as I was taking detailed pics for my friend. But I’ll be okay. It’s not me, it’s you and I will not always regret you.

So, done.

Am I the first to actually part ways this week?

I know all about falling back in love with a scarf when taking pictures to list it, LOL. So, good for you that you were abl to find your problem child a new home. As I mentioned, I bought a blue Soiree de Gala a month ago and was stuck in limbo (US postal service fail) until today. I know the border is comically wide, but I'm going to make this scarf work! The design is soooo fabulous. It's my dream life.
