Who is in your passenger seat?

You are welcome, believe me I was such a scarf idiot with my first one! I remember staring at it on the bed like it was a snake that might bite when I couldn’t imagine in the least what to do! After 9 years, it’s so easy to fold and twist and put rings on them it’s second nature. Silk is really beautiful and forgiving and these patterns and colors look great even if we aren’t the venerable MaiTai, the lovely woman I mentioned that used to be on tpf that does scarf videos, makes lovely bag inserts etc. Have fun with your beautiful silk

PS if you buy an H silk, you might be a goner! Especially since the twillys look great on bags! That is one slippery slope my friend

I look at mine the same way! I was brave enough to sort of put it around my neck when I first got it but since then it’s been folded in it’s box on display in my LR. I look forward to being able to make silk magic like you do! And yes, I’m pretty sure I’m already a goner when it comes to the H silk. I’ve been browsing their site and unless I panic buy a keepall xs before the next PI I think an H silk will be my holiday gift to myself.

It’s a great gift to yourself if you do it! I read once that many French girls are gifted with an H silk for their 16th birthday, and that one of most cherished items they have is an H scarf. Who knew! I see why though. They truly are works of art. I do love my marble silk LV bandeau too in black white and fuschia. And panic buying a keepall xs is a fine purchase too

If I may add, the price for a H twilly is a little less than a LV bandeau for the same skinny scarf size and the H prints are much prettier tbh. I have been thinking of getting some for a couple of years but haven’t due to “loyalty” (silly me!) to LV. But life is too short to deprive one of a little pretty here and there

Hi Iamminda I just wanted to say I love what you have written under your post. Amen!
Also, I only own 1 LV bandeau. It was a gift from my dear friends for my 50th a couple of years ago. But I wear it on my head to hold down my hair and cover my ears when driving with the roof down. Never even considered it for my bags.

Thanks PandP . I love that you use your bandeau for a practical purpose rather than decorating your bags . I have been buying them to decorate my bags and protect the handles. I have worn it once or twice in a neck-tie knot to accessorize a solid color top.

Yes, LV prices bandeaus a bit higher, and I find H to be higher quality overall and the silk and art is tdf. I know what you mean about loyalty - I almost couldn’t buy my black white fuschia SITC bandeau, but I really wanted it. It’s very nice and goes great with my black and white NF. And of course if we want monogram or vivienne, LV it is. But my H twillys are just long skinny pieces of art! I’ve used them primarily to cover bag handles, but have used for a strap, a handle, or a bracelet at different times. They usually offer ones in the same groups of cw’s as their scarves, and the nice thing about H, LV, Chanel is that colorways cans be so similar. Lots of my H cw’s look great on LVs.

I hope you will treat yourself to a little pretty or two! They come in little tiny cylinder boxes and are just so cute

Thanks A . I checked after I wrote my post and realized it is still available (swear it wasn’t Available the last time I checked, guess that means a PI is coming soon if things are available).

I am sure the H ones are much nicer all around and the little orange H box is super cute. I am feeling a bit over LV right now (tried to buy the set of Garden bandeaus in store a couple of days ago but they only had 1!! and someone else was looking at it along with the NF. The client ended up not buying either when I checked stock upon getting home). It’s for the better anyways so I can stay on my bag ban .

Between DrTr and myself we just want to be sure all your needs are met M. I agree, my “loyalty” to LV has waned too and if there’s another considerable PI then I for sure will not be buying any bags or slgs from them unless it’s a very unique item from a collection in the distant future. And I will have no qualms about using H scarves with LV bags. It’s very considerate of LV to push their loyal followers to the competition don’t you think?

This happened to me Iamminda. LV will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart. It was my first luxury item and from today's standards I was old lol. I was 32. I have just recently fulfilled my collection with the noe bb in DA and honestly feel like I am done. I so wish I had bought more trunks than bags 20 years ago lol. The prices of EVERYTHING is nuts. I will probably read this forum forever because I love seeing the purchases of everyone else If I had unlimited funds I would just keep buying but I dont
I started buying Hermes 2 years ago and even with H there are just 2 more bags I want and then I am done with them too. I think!
