Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! Moma, this is a true treasure on you! How gorgeous is that?!
I, too, like dear litchi, have not yet popped my 140 twill [emoji523]. The great thing with H scarves is having so many [emoji523] [emoji523] [emoji523] to pop! So it's easy to feel that wedding-night excitement when you find a new format that works for you.
And boy, I think I should have listened to MYH long ago and boarded that 140 train. I was intimidated by all that fabric ... but I was wrong, so wrong. 140s are really easy to wear!
So ... I went back to H today to court the beautiful Parures Precieuses and really play with her. I simply couldn't get it out of my mind. As BBC said, there is something about this regal shade of purple - it powerfully lures you in with its siren's song. I love the high-contrast colors with the green fronds against the purple backdrop. The design is just lovely.
Plus I was in a celebratory mood. The past few days have been high-stress at work (though everything wound up better than expected) and I had my first mammogram today. It just so happened that the radiology center was a couple blocks from my H store, heh heh heh. After being squashed to the point of flabbiness, the girls just needed their dignity back, dagnabit! Here's proof! How sad is this, I ask? Here I am in a shapeless gown (obviously NOT designed by H) having survived the Great Smooshing of 2017.

I was literally quite deflated.
So I whisk myself away to H. I look for Parures Precieuses. I don't see it anywhere! Oh, noooooo! An SA tries to help but comes back and says there are none in the USA.
"But ... but ... I don't understand - it was just here four days ago," I stammer in disbelief.
"Yes, well, with Hermes, you need to pounce when it's in stock," she says, ever-so-cruelly. "I think it's how they train customers."
Augh! I meekly try on another cw:

The false smile belies my heart. This cw does not cheer me up. I still crave the purple beauty.
I console myself by trying on a few other things from this season:
Mors a Jouets, cw 3, I think.

Yes, it confirms my suspicion that I definitely need 140s in my life.
Mayhaps another Samourai will cheer my doleful heart... I try 07 and 13 again:

I can't decide, so I leave. So the question I put to you, dear tpfers, is this: Should I wait for Precieuses or go with another samurai and if so, which one? WHICH ONE????
