Capsule wardrobe #138 - summer blues

The recent days have been fresh and warm but not hot, thanks to daily rainfalls in the late afternoon. It's a rare summer treat to put on a light scarf for warmth, at least during daytime.



A rectangular fold is a great way to showcase scarves with solid colored borders.. when placing the scarf ring or knot where the border ends, it results in a great contrast and instant necklace effect.



Knotting wise, a PM mousseline can be tied in the same ways as a regular 90 carré, but since the mousse's silk is lighter and has less volume, you need to choose your scarf ring one size down. The rectangular pleated basic slide (above) requires a shawl ring when tied with a 90 silk twill scarf, but with a PM mousseline (also 90 x 90 cm) a Grande Classique is sufficient.


Capsule wardrobe pieces: white jeans with a 3/4 sleeve t-shirt and long cascade wrap by Kettlewell Colours
Accessories:Hermès 'Aau coeur de la vie' Mousseline PM and clic-clac H enamel bracelet in bleu indiens
Shoes: turquoise Espadrille wedges (Castaner)
Scarf tying method: pleat your mousseline into a rectangular strip, place around your neck and secure the ends in a basic slide



Variation: Asymmetrical wrap with a Classique Moyenne scarf ring



I'll be away for a few days, looking forward to catching up with you a couple of days later than usual xx
