Janice
It's Monday–but I see you just couldn't stay away! Lovely choices, fascinating commentary. Thank you, Janice!
Fun to look at this, nearly a year later, and be just as inspired and impressed by your eye for detail, line, texture, and color.
I love these features, even when the colours aren't ones I would wear! I look better in brighter colours, plus my best neutrals are navy, grey and black, so I have a special request for you. I recently bought this scarf from a company called Fat Face: I hope the link works: http://www.johnlewis.com/fat-face-freesia-floral-print-scarf/p935190?colour=Navy. Would you be able to do a post using this scarf or one with similar colours? If not, don't worry as it will only encourage me to spend…….!
Nice scarf. Which neutrals would you wear it with?
Had to take a peek, even though it's Monday. Great post and I am left feeling like I got a special bonus to brighten a dreary -17 January in MN morning! Thank you.
I love these features, and what a treat! I came on to look through some archived posts, and discovered you had, indeed, posted something new for us today. Thank you so much! I can't wear the muted colors, but I have learned so much from your explanation of the thought behind your selections. Now I am going to comb through the archives, as I need to fine-tune my navy/grey/wine winter theme.
You were supposed to take the day off lol. This is simply beautiful!
Let me chime in here about you not taking the day off….
That said, I have a tone on tone scarf that gets little wear because I have always found it difficult to style right. That stone colored example is a good starting point for me.
I had a wonderful afternoon in Libertys on my recent trip to London. A memory to keep!
Janice, these posts – in which you describe a problem and the thought processes you use to tackle it, are invaluable. I hadn't thought about the variations in colors (dusty, milky), textures, and role of repetition until I read these posts. Thank you!
With the fine detailing in this scarf, would you say it would look best on someone with fine boned details in their face? Someone that teds toward the petite?
I have a black and taupe t-shirt that would look amazing with this scarf. The lack of contrast in the stripes has always made it difficult for me to pair this shirt with patterned scarves, but now I see that I could mix low-contrast patterns together. Thanks Janice!
These combinations are lovely!
This is exquisite! Thank you Janice. Your explanations of the details will help us all be discerning too.
That's it! That's THE scarf I've been searching for (I just didn't know it existed). Thank you!
sooooooo pretty!
