lovely expatwife! (Hey, I'm pretty sure a long sleeve tee would fit the bill too!)
Thank you! I'm afraid long sleeve t will not do it, more like a sweater with a jacket. It really is quite cold [emoji23][emoji15]

Hello scarfies -
I have returned from my holiday and what an adventure it was! Our family travelled to the Mediterranean and visited some amazing sights, tasted some marvelous cuisine and enjoyed the sun, sand and views of the Aegean seas. I hope it is okay to post a few travel photos along with my H goodies. I'd love to start a travel and H thread if the good mods could let me know if another thread already exists.
I have been able to peek at some of the beautiful silks, colors and recent H silks that have been posted this past week or two. Please forgive me in my delay of thanks for the early July postings. I had so little time to pack and get the house and pet sitter in order for us to escape for our trip.
A few photos of our trip to Istanbul and the Greek Isles. Yes, it just so happened our trip coincided with the crisis taking place with the Greek economy. But after much thought, careful assessments and recommendations that tourists were quite welcome, we went ahead with our plans and it was a very enjoyable trip. Not only did we enjoy ourselves, we also were very happy to contribute to the economy in our small way.
Photos: Istanbul, Hagia Sophia, Ephesus....
I found the perfect silks to celebrate our visit and remarkable Byzantine architecture and art of the region.
Since we are on the subject of color this week, my views are that I used to think only certain colors worked for me, typically reds, bright and bold colors and designs. H does such a marvelous job mixing their colors that I am surprised when a color that usually would not suit me, can be a perfect foil depending upon what I am wearing the day I might try on a silk.
Case in point - Hippopolis AW 2015 - this little gem with its details reminds me not only of the region we visited, but the little figures also remind me of the H. Miyazaki animated creatures (and I love his films)!
Hoping the waters of the Aegean and the charming vistas of Mykonos will cool you all down- it was warm, but the breezes were lovely.
While waiting for our flight in Istanbul, what do I come across at the duty free H store? The most spectacular mousseline that I have coveted since it appeared on the SS2015 thread. Croisette and CherryBlossum have this design and I gave up hope our store would ever receive it. It was just as Chestnut would say - SCARF FATE!!!
Alliances du Monde - Colorway 17 - Blanc/Taupe/Gris
Thank you for sharing your wonderful travels with your beatuiful photos! Congrats on Hippopolis and Alliances du Monde! I recently purchsed Hippopolis in different cw,actually my first 90 for next season, because it reminded me of H.Miyazaki's FIlms! What a coinsidence! I thought the same. And your Alliances du Monde is just made for you! Perfect on you!My suitcase was so small on this trip that I had to forego the usual shawl boxes and ask the SAs to pack in the slim envelopes. So glad I did too because these silks accompanied me on my carry on Longchamp bag on board.
One more silk to share later! Happy scarfing!
