Baby, I Got Your Number

Yesterday morning, I got quite the surprise when I was digging through my sock drawer and came across this amazing scarf. Long forgotten, I have no idea where it came from or how long I’ve had it! But wow, what a score. The scarf is vintage but reminds me very much of one of my all-time favorite collections. Now, I just need to figure out some new and creative ways to tie a scarf because this one is surely going to get a ton of wear.

Readers: Are there any scarf-tying tutorials out there that you swear by?

   When I bought my Hermes scarf in NYC, I got a little book along with it that shows all the fancy ways to tie it. It was super helpful considering how huge Hermes scarves really are…I can scan it and send some jpegs to you! Otherwise google it! I’m sure there’s tutorials galore on the interweb…xo!

   I think elsie and crew over at A Beautiful Mess had a recent post on the subject, I can’t find it in my browser but I’m sure you could do a search for them!

     Mary bee: I am so glad you told me this! I think you always bestow me with so many vintage goodies that this beauty got lost in the mix when I got home. It’s so much more special now knowing you found it for me.

       I liked that too! I’m not much of a scarf-wearer, but I think I could definitely wear one in my hair. My favourite has to be the plait.
