Last August when blackbird and I were playing hookey* at BlogHer, I bought a Hermes fluide scarf. Which is leaving me feeling a little flummoxed. Blackbird put the scarf on all kinds of ways, and it always looked fabulous. And on a French website, I see that this kind of scarf is considered

Luckily I hadn't seen this video, or I would have decided that unless I'm 24, and a flat-chested ukelele-playing Parisienne, there would be no point in buying it.

ReplyDeleteAnxiously awaiting the picture of you wearing your new Hermes scarf Superman-cape-style.
ReplyDeleteI am speechless. In the first video that lovely girl is showing how to wear the scarf the way I always wear it. And I thought it was my own creation to wear it like that! OY.
ReplyDeleteAnother thing I cannot do--wear a scarf with any sense or ability or sensiblity.
ReplyDeleteTwo things.
ReplyDelete1- Wow... she is really flat chested.
2- I love that liberty video!!! It has changed my life.
And.
I must have those glasses she has on. I think that will be the key to speaking in such accent.
