Sorry, Tilly...got chatting to my scarves and time just went.....you just hold and flap them as the Victorians held fans.....I'm single....I love you....I'm interested .......I long to be near thee......you are impudent.......you have very big feet.... does my bum look big in this......and so on.....whilst fluttering your eyelashes..... Mind...
Shelve the pearls anyway Tilly... I have about 20 + scarves and have been wearing them for years.... Mostly because I feel the cold around my neck... So more comfort than fashion
LOL pearls always remind me of my old man... He thinks my dress sense is out of keeping with my years and would have me wearing twin sets and pearls. If he says to me "what the hell are you wearing?" I know I look OK :o)
I'd love a silk scarf, but I tend to have things that I can bung in the wash. (Also a scarf is great if, like me, you tend to spill your dinner down your front - wash the scarf, not the jumper)
I remember my mother saying that when she turned forty (which would have been in 1949), she felt that all she was then expected to do was to put on a twinset and pearls and sit in the corner, she was past it. In fact, she took no notice, she went on to have another child at 47 (which was amazingly old in those days), and lived to 94, and the twinset never appeared - thank goodness.
I had three scarves, last Christmas. One, I hated and it went to the charity shop, the other two were lovely. Proper lady's scarves, silk and colourful.
I have two cashmere twinsets and they are very elegant, I think. One is pale green and the other is wishy washy blue. I alwas feel really good when I wear them with a lovely silk scarf, of course.
