I continue to receive a surprising number of visits to a post that I wrote quite a while ago regarding an Hermes tutorial for tying silk scarves...entitled "Playtime with you scarf"...I still wonder if the title was a bad translation from something or Hermes was really going for such a double entendre laden sentence...either way, as someone with a couple of drawers full of the little blighters...and a woman who can while away hefty chunks of time draping and folding a scarf like some demented devotee of the art of origami...I’m thrilled that there are so many fellow addicts out there...all knotting and folding away like crazy.

For the scarf-challenged, or those of us addicts having a "lazy day", Isabel Marant has created this beautiful top with built-in shawl...all of the insouciant scarf vibe...none of the effort...brilliant.
