Thank you Frou Frou ! Yes, for example the Turandot could be reissued....As far as I remember, you have this beautiful red one.
Turandot is on my radar now but I am not sure about the proper cw for me.
These are photos from almost two years ago.
ullhair: My hair really needs a clip and dip (cut and dye) as we speak. Here's a bit of scarf humor: I went to my colorist and told her," I needed a dip dye!" Wah-wah....
Thank you seton! You are always so complementary of my scarves. I am truly flattered!
Be still my heart!Needless to say, I am in love with this shawl, bag combo! You look lovely in your coral pink lipstick! Most definitely, Chanel and Hermes are in cahoots with one another!
Your Chanel make-up event sounds like fun.
Thank you, you are too kind Ladybaga.
The Chanel event was alot of fun. They had one of their national makeup artists there, a very nice guy named John Fussell. His approach for aging eyes is "architectural" - assessing the bone structure and so on, then figuring out where to use dark/light colors to emphasize the good, and do nothing to attract attention to the worse parts. He put dark color where I used to deacdes ago, but stopped because the general wisdom is not to do that as you get older. But as he pointed out, with deep-set eyes the only space to work with is underneath and at the corners.Anyway, it reminded me of design class, except that was landscape and not eyes! Lots of fun, as you said.
Wow, you are fearless and fantastic in those bright colors!! The red shirt, wowee!! Terrific, just really terrific Ladybaga.
Also just love your new theme week beauties. Especially the last two, gorgeous turquoise. And the earrings! swooning here......

Thank you frou frou! Last year, I actually taught about the Ainou of Japan. A fascinating history! (Of course, I wore my scarf when I taught the lesson!
) My DH picked this out for me when he was in NYC for work in the summer of 2011. I think it was a S/S2011 offering. It is very similar in coloring to my Sichuan, and my turquoise PdM, so I think for this colorway, I am all set. Thank you, again!Thank you, you are too kind Ladybaga.

I need John's number!
One thing I neglect is taking time to really work on make-up skills. I slap it on and run out the door! (I do wear moisturizer and wash my face, but make-up has always been my downfall. I had a sun/age spot zapped the other day, but what I also need is some better foundation.)
Thank you so much for your sweet complement! That red shirt has gotten a lot of wear over the last couple of years! Looking back at my posts, it seems like I only own one shirt!

Sorry, TT! It's almost that cold at home in NY too, which is why it seems so funny to see people in winter jackets when it's 50 out...Happy to be twins with you!
So gorgeous LB!!!
Thank you so much jp!
I remember when I first started on the great Hermes silk voyage and many of our lovely ladies would pull pics from their archives. I thought, wow, I wonder if I would ever have enough scarves/pics to actually have an archive.....Three years later, and I do believe I have an "archive." My Saturday ritual again, playtime with my scarves. My new year collecting resolution is to collect more black/white/brown/purple and I think I need to stick with that.
Inspired by Pierina2's yummy pics of her turquoise silks, I'm sharing some of my favorite black/white silks this weekend. And, do you guys know last Friday was the "Wear Red Day"?
The quintessential scarf for a lace-lover - Doigts de Fee - among the two Cathy Latham's designs that I love - the other one is Brandebourgs
The workhorse CSMC - I own this design only in monochromatic cws: cobalt blue and this
The favorite A. Honore design
These all look wonderful on you, Chestnutty! Especially Doigts de Fee. It is exquisite in this colorway. How fun to have a collecting goal. Happy hunting!
Thank you for the Cavalcadour appreciation. Yes, your Tendresse is like a little bit of a summer day, especially with that terrific blue coat. Makes me smile to see you in those colors, Hermesick!
Your theme week group of silks is fabulous! Love the orange and pink Temari, will you do action shots of some of these this week, of you have time?
