I apologize, as I know this CW 09 of Appaloosa has been posted already, but I hope it can help others in deciding to see it tied differently on different members as well. I was between this one and CW 01 with the B/W horse, and CW 12 with the grey/blue horse. Both of those have very strong bold colors in the design portion which I loved, but I eventually narrowed down to 09 or 12. Ultimately I decided this one somehow worked for me, possibly because of the amount of black, but also, there is something quite special about the touch of "ciel"/sky blue color which I usually cannot wear at all. I hope I made the right decision!! Here are a few photos of it tied in different ways...hope this helps/enables some of you :graucho: As usual, so sorry for the huge photos!!

Never apologize dear Bova. I always enjoy your modeling photos. This looks wonderful on you. I love the combination of the black brown and beige and the surprising hint of blue. If I were to choose a cw this would be it. Was there much new at our store? Did the jardin de la maharani silks and csgms arrive? [emoji51]

Thank you pocketbook pup! I think this one would be amazing on you...not much new at our store, they are expecting a large silk shipment very soon. Only a couple of CW's of jardin de la maharani CSGM's and silks. I tried the black CSGM and liked it quite a lot, but am waiting to try the red/cream one. They did have most of the CW's of Savanna Dance in the CSGM, but I just have trouble with such a wide border on me. They are gorgeous though!

Really IS perfect on u dear!!!
Awww, thanks so much Israeli_Flava!

Thanks for the opinions. [emoji41] That's the word for it, Momasaurus - it's elegant. I wish they made something like this in a GM.

I have been buying H scarves for a fairly long time.....20 years? [emoji51] I've never really gone for the monotone scarves - the style was always lost on me. But now as I get older I realize that it's nice to have a few that just go with everything - a nice touch, and one that doesn't complete with what I'm wearing.

The white Paperoles is very pretty IRL - I do wish the colors were just a touch more saturated - but now I also find myself scouring Ebay to see if there's anything I really missed over the years that would have worked instead, esp in the shawl size (*maybe* Jardin de Leila; the Dallet shawl didn't have any color at all except the hem so I still would still have passed; no dip dye cashmeres...) - not really.

The blue is very pretty and it does have the contrast hem - I don't think the white does. The blue was a no brainer for me, the colors are gorgeous and the hem is my shade of red. I was starting to feel self-conscious in the boutique going back and forth between the two, so I just took the blue because I know that will sell out faster - the white will go when the weather gets warmer.
Hm. That was good thinking about nabbing the blue right away. This way you have time to mull over the white.
Regarding older monochromatic shawls - I think the uber-frustrating Gloire de Guillaume came in a white/pale blue CSGM.

Perfect! I think you made the right choice, and you've tied it so beautifully. I agree about those touches of pale blue. Just magical.

Gorjusssssss!

Thank yooooooou!!! [emoji8]


Oh yay!!! It's beautiful on you!!!

At this point, it's all done but the buying. I went to put on my favorite black dress tonight and I realized I need the scarf immediately. You are right about Gloire, and H has done a few monochromatic GMs over the years but they lean toward either blue or black (or finesse). There have been some neutral silks and cashmere stoles (grey/taupe carre en carre stole, a few Toutsy silk designs) but very few options if you want something between a finesse and a regular scarf. I would have done a bit better wanting a GM silk as there were a few more options, esp with the dip dyes, now I'm on the hunt!! [emoji57]
