Foulard de la semaine
The recent heat wave has moved along to the east (look out, NY!), and it’s cool enough once again for a lightweight scarf. Encore, my sheer silk Liberty of London vintage scarf, handed down from grand-mere Lucille. I folded the silk square into an oblong, wrapped around the neck, and tucked one of the ends back down through the loop. It stays in place nicely!

that is a beautiful scarf. I wish I could look as comfortable in a scarf as you do! Are you enjoying your new landscaping?
Keep your heat! We don’t want it.
So elegant, and such a wonderful colour combination.
Looks nifty. Almost like two scarves.
Lovely combo. Clever way to wear it, too. Simple yet elegant.
Tres jolie!
The colours are gorgeous. Something about this method of tying it makes you look especially French.
Well this one looks like it really could stay on properly. Very ok! What means cooler weather over there?
Love the colour of that scarf on you, and and LOVE the way its folded—it does look very French–unstudied elegance.
Incredible scarf tie. My daughter bought me a sheer silk Etro scarf and I could never figure out a way to arrange it. This worked perfectly.
Julianne – thanks so much! Ease with scarves truly is just a matter of practice, practice, practice. I felt awkward at first too. We’re very much enjoying the new outdoor spaces; tonight we have some family coming over for a BBQ!
WendyB – maybe we can send it to Florida…they don’t seem to mind.
Tabitha – thank you! Even if this scarf didn’t have such sentimental value, I’d still love it for the print and colors.
LBR – mille mercis!
LPC – thanks! The border is such a contrasting color that it can look vastly different depending on how it’s tied.
Sue – thanks so much!
Miss Janey – merci beaucoup!
metscan – yes this one stays in place, no fussing! “Cooler” here means 22-23C.
Katriona – thank you! Sometimes the almost “accidental” ties work best.
Deborah Chase – thanks, and I’m so glad this was helpful! Enjoy that scarf; Etro makes such wonderful colors and patterns.
