    I very much like the soft navy paired with grey. The scarf is lovely. It is not Hermes, is it?

    Nope – Liberty of London. As much as I love Hermes scarves, there's a WORLD of beautiful silk scarves to be discovered!

    This is beautifully wearable. Your permutations are well on display here! And I love some of the Hermes scarves, quality unsurpassed and designs creative. I rarely wear "pictures" (though those medieval looking gazelles or whatever were wonderful). I tend to prefer geometrics, some abstract and florals. But you're right, you can find gorgeous scarves all over the world. And BTW, your use of texture in yesterday's post was amazing.

    I love this set- simple – classic and mixable! I agree the navy/grey combination is wearable and much softer for those of us with warm/softer coloring. I am coveting many of these items – particularly the navy loafers! I too love my Hermes scarves but find Liberty of London scarves are a 'more affordable' option much of the time.

    I love the cozy simplicity of this set. Looks like it would be great for travel & transitional weather.
