Totally agree. Anyway, we're not even at Christmas, ITCW is the perfect winter scarf.
This cw really impressed me, as did the pink Flowers of SA that
@Croisette7 @FrenchSandra and perhaps others have fallen for, and for me the lilac/turquoise version too which loved me back (but I go through phases with turquoise).
Although I didn't buy any of these (which I shall prob regret) I find them interesting in a good way and a new direction for H.
I see this as part of a tough-pastel trend (hair, coats, boots etc). They are not conservative pastels. I see lots more pastels in the SS18 (these look like they'll be too pale for me and more typical) but these current Fall scarves mix strong and soft - very unusual, very strong. I may get one yet.
