back to scarves


As this is meant to be a blog about vintage textiles (sort off) I thought I would show you some scarves today


 My new Hermes, found in a thrift store the day before I left for New Zealand.  Not an absolute favorite nor in pristine condition but I grabbed it and chucked it around my neck as I was leaving for the airport. Find that I am wearing it constantly, goes with everything and I have become quite fond of this one.


 A vintage silk Jacqmar for my collection....from an op shop in Lower Hutt.


Interesting Australian 'wattle' souvenir scarf now for sale in foulardfantastique.

More travel blogs next week.

  3. Lovely scarves and I remember having a drawer full of them back in the late sixties - a different one was worn every day to dress up a coat. Living in the tropics now I don't wear coats but I still have scarves in the drawer. Love your travel posts. Take care.

  4. I remember when my Mom had drawers of these scarves. Hers were silk with rolled hems. Oh, to have those now!
