The Hermes 90cm scarves are the most versatile, in my opinion. They are suitable for an indoor, work environment, yet one can easily wear them in the winter, perhaps cowboy style.
Each scarf is a work of art, and to pick the right design and colorway is always tricky. My advice to new collectors is to try them on! Colors are fun, but certain colors could make people look "ill". Understanding what colors work for our skin tones is the most important.
The second thought I'd like to share is to wear the scarves. Sounds simple, right? But many people don't even remember what they have. So I figured out my own "system" to make it work: a tie rack.
Here is how it looks:
Now, let me introduce the scarves:

ReplyDeletedo you have any shawls? any thoughts about it??
Thank you! I have not bought any shawls yet, but I'm waiting for one. It's more difficult to buy shawls because the inventory and color selections are more limited. I do have a few on my wishlist though.
ReplyDeleteThey are nice, but delicate. The cashmere and silk blend will pull sooner or later with wear and tear, so be prepared.
What a divine selection you have : I would love to own any one of them. But you have a couple there which are just amazing ...
ReplyDeleteBallade de Heian What a gem . It commands exorbitant prices .
Guepards Again, so lovely. Those colours .
I love seeing collections of H scarves: my own is starting to look very blue and orange , this has made me think of possibilities ahead !
Thank you! You are so lucky to be able to wear orange, which is a color I can never pull off. Buying Hermes scarves is a journey, and I'm having great fun playing with colors.
DeleteBallade de Heian was indeed a gem. It took my SA several weeks to find one. I was very lucky.
I'd love to see your collection. Are you on TPF?
I'm frou frou on TPF : when I started getting nto blogs I thought I needed a different name for each!
ReplyDeleteAre you on TPF ? I'll look out for you there ...
What a lovely collection. And I totally agree that (with a few exceptions) we should endeavor to wear, rather than just collect, our scarves.
ReplyDeleteYup. I actually have the habit of selling/donating things I don't wear often. So normally when I need to decide on an outfit, I would just stand in my closet, and look around to see which piece I haven't touched for a while...:)
DeleteYour collection is beautiful !
ReplyDeleteIt is always a pleasure to see the H scarves collection of someone.
Like you, I collect H scarves. We are twins on Ex-Libris en Camouflage and cousins on Fleurs d'Indienne, Guépards and Pelages et Camouflages.
