Scottish Trip Souvenir

Well as I hinted I did get a souvenir from my trip to Oban, albeit  I bought it in Glasgow at the House of Fraser department store.  One orange bag....


The SA kindly gave me some freebies/samples as well!

  2. I love it Scarf Addict, and your pink cardigan matches it perfectly. Am very jealous as I was secretly lusting after this colourway, I dragged my poor hubs to Hermes New Bond St for birthday scarf purchase but they did not have this colour; after much agonising I got the darker pink/maroon combo which I think suits my colouring better but I still experienced a twinge when I saw yours. Happy Christmas Mrs SA!

    1. Hi Blighty- thank you! Oh what a shame - they had this cw in New York last week and they are cheaper to buy there than UK! Still if your cw suits your skin tone better then I am sure it looks great on you! Hope you are having a lovely Christmas. Best wishes SAxx

    1. Thank you Cynthia! It was lucky I also had the pink cardigan on when I bought it - that swung it for me! Merry Christmas SAx

  5. Lovely scarf on you. A question: I am considering purchasing a shawl this year, but have seen some things online claiming that the quality is not as good as in years past. I have an older shawl I got on eBay. It's very nice. Have you heard that the quality of cashmere shawls at Hermes is suffering? I'm just wondering if they're worth the price. thanks! Ronnie

    1. Hi Ronnie, thanks for stopping by! Yes I too have read that Hermes cashmere shawl quality is not what it used to be there is/was a thread on TPF about this very problem. I own 2 shawls which were recent editions so I cannot comment as I have no experience of older GM shawls. I personally think they are very expensive for what they are so the decision is how much wear will you get out to them? SAx
