It made me squeal delightfully, which was also quite a shock to hear myself get so excited about a scarf belt tied around a dress with a coordinated chain. Great look!

Many congr...A warm welcome to this blog, dear Tina! Many congratulations on your first H scarves, and glad to hear the post on buying/selecting was useful. A scarf bought in Paris or Aix would be a lovely souvenir from your trip, and price wise you will do better when buying them in France (310 EUR). Since you are from outside the EU, you can also get a tax refund. The SAs are very helpful in both stores, but the scarf counter at FSH can get very busy, especially in the afternoons. You won't have any problems communicating in English, but any effort to speak French is usually much appreciated. Even if it is just a courteous 'bonjour' when you enter the store! Wishing you a great trip, and much fun chosing your new scarf :-)MaiTaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256110739626579757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529262281526104323.post-79635761751313915822012-07-29T17:41:37.396+02:002012-07-29T17:41:37.396+02:00I remember how excited I was when spotting the Far...I remember how excited I was when spotting the Farandole on the CetG!

I adore each ensemble. You brought together the elements that work to create a harmonious whole, articulated how and why your pairings work in the simplest, most concise way; and you've assembled it all together so we can more fully understand and appreciate the basic principles. You're teaching us the most valuable lessons, dear MaiTai. I am just in total awe of you.

I've been a scarf convert since my second trip to France in 2006, and I have a nice collection, but have never made the jump to Hermes. Now have decided to take the plunge and purchase one or two this year. I've read your scarf-buying/selecting posts; very helpful. I've visited the H store in Boston (right next door to my favorite Ann Fontaine!). I'll be in France in September (Paris and Aix-en-Provence). Would you advise purchasing here, or waiting till I'm abroad? (pricewise, selection-wise, helpfulness of SAs, etc.) Also, I speak some French, but slowly and with a fairly limited vocabulary. Will this be a problem in H stores in France? Many thanks! Love your blog.

I tend to match key colours of a scarf to a dress, my own version of matchy-matchy. Oh and thanks for the sunshine, we had a cracker of a summer week here and it has been lovely (if maybe rather tiring to work).
