Foulard de la semaine

Une surprise pour vous!
This is my first attempt at creating a video tutorial, comment plier un foulard.  Both of these ties I use freqently with my longer scarves, as they’re easy, look great, stay in place, and aren’t constricting around the neck.
Oui, the video’s a bit rough around the edges, and I’m hoping that with time and practice my video skills will improve; still it was great fun to put together!

  1. Brava! and thanks for putting a smile on my face this morning. You’ve inspired me to re-explore my scarf drawer.

  2. Aren’t you adorable (in a chic way!) on film. That smile of yours is very contagious.

    [Though in motion vs photo you remind me of someone and I can’t think who, ha.]

    The ties you demonstrated are already in my VERY limited “scarf vocab,” so I hope this is the start of many more to come…from your photos I know you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve.

  3. Quel beau sourire,vous avez l’air toute jeune Pseu!
    Merçi pour la leçon et encore s’il-vous-plait? La petite musique est bien aussi 😉

  4. Thank you so much for the videos. Very helpful and easy to follow. I will now get more use from my longer scarves and shawls.

  5. Excellent job! I particularly liked the little twist at the end of the second one…I thought you were just going for the standard slip-ends-through-loop, but voila! I also like your vintage travel poster in the background. I have several (all French locations, as it happens) in my house!

  6. This was wonderful!! I love your scarf ties, and this was absolutely the best way to learn how to actually do them. I ran, got my longest scarf and practiced while watching the video. More please!

  7. Super! Didn’t know about either the tuck (first scarf) or the twist (second scarf). Accordian music is a great way to begin a chilly Friday. Merci!

  8. Ok, I just went and tried the second technique (and I just happen to have a long leopard print scarf!) It looks great, such a simple “twist”—pun intended—but looks quite a lot better than just looping the ends through, which is what I’ve always done. Thanks, Pseu!

  9. Fabulous tutorial. I clicked over from Tish’s blog to see how to tie my scarf properly. Thank you so much. I hope you’ll do this again with other size scarves. We all want to look fabulously French.

    Merci beaucoup,
    Sam

  10. Merci beaucoup! I now have two fantastic new ways to wear my scarves thanks to you and your delightful tutorial.

  11. Mille mercis everyone for your kind comments! I’m glad this is helpful and…

    1. Yes, I plan to do more of these, hopefully one every week or two with a variety of scarf shapes and sizes, until I run out of ideas.

    2. Yes, my hair is darker. I’d felt that the strawberry blond color was just too light and washing me out, so I’ve gone with a color that’s a slightly warmer version of my natural color (minus the grey), and I’m quite happy with it. I desparately need a haircut right now, which I’ll be getting on Sunday. No radical changes, just tweaking the current style, which I’m also mostly happy with.

    3. I initially tried recording my voice, but in having to stand back from the computer far enough to get capture the entire “field of operation,” the mic wasn’t picking up my voice well, and the result was echo-y and not very clear.

    Thanks again, you are all too kind!

  12. You’re so cute! And thanks for the tips — I’m all thumbs when it comes to scarves, but things are looking up now!

  13. Fabulous! The second one I picked up from Imogen a while back and it is my absolutely favourite. I was hoping we’d hear your voice – I love finding out what people sound like …

  14. Merci beaucoup! Now that Fall has descended on San Francisco, I’m so excited to wear my scarves. It’s always great to learn different ways to tie them and I appreciate your tutorials. Definitely would love to see more! Thanks, also, for a lovely blog. Glad I found it.
