I want to thank the mnetter who told me about an ebay scarf....

this one

If you read this - thanks! I love it and judging by the comments I have had when wearing it, so do others!

I have ordered the pink one they do too and although not as nice I still really like it. You've saved me a fortune from buying elsewhere!

Thanks

Yes. Mary Portas is 49 (I think) and she looks great in hers Smile

Original listing (first link) did say cashmere/silk Angel but was quickly revised to say cotton mix. Which, let's face it is more realistic for £9.99.

Which listing are you looking at MissFoodie. Does it still say cashmere?

Grin at all these people ordering scarves.

I'm actually quite nervous to go out wearing mine now in case it's like the end of <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=thomas+crown+affair+ending+bowler+hats&hl=en&tbm=isch&tbnid=9EtrOOljHZpqiM:&imgrefurl=news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_pictures/7626108.stm&docid=PNneD8svA7QrTM&w=466&h=300&ei=QBFpTsXVMYnIswbpp82aAg&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=191&page=1&tbnh=162&tbnw=218&start=0&ndsp=33&ved=1t:429,r:24,s:0&tx=113&ty=57&biw=1600&bih=770" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Thomas Crown Affair but with everyone in the same scarf rather than bowler hats.

Thx! Have found one listed as silk blend by another seller so bought that in purple. Even if cotton, still nice!

millie19 · 08/09/2011 20:58

Just received my brown one (no graffiti) - love love love it! And yes I will be ordering another one I'm sure!

mistressploppy · 08/09/2011 20:59

linky please Angel !

Angel786 · 08/09/2011 21:12

Voilà here might get the brown too Wink

madammecholet · 08/09/2011 21:47

I am amazed my one little recommend to gregs has attracted so much attention....GrinGrin

gregs what would you like me to recommend next? Looking for a nice bag, a belt, a cardi?? Wink

MissFoodie · 08/09/2011 22:45

yes, that's where I've ordered mine from - doubt very much there's an ounce of silk or cashmere in it for 9.99....would be great if cotton but I suspect it will be rather flammable at that price!

Ifancyashandy · 08/09/2011 23:13

Damn. I've had the grey LV one for about a year now. Gonna have to ditch it if yous lot are buying the fake off eBay!

Grin and a little bit of Angry!

happyflower22 · 08/09/2011 23:37

i like desinger staff,but i wont spend 500 for a scarf.Well,maybe yes if i won the lottery one day.

Ifancyashandy · 09/09/2011 00:29

Tsk Happyflower I didn't pay for it!

Really, perish the thought Grin

MissFoodie · 09/09/2011 12:00

mine has been shipped, will take detailed photos and post when it arrives!

mistressploppy · 09/09/2011 12:06

Oooh, got mine just now. It's really rather spiffing. I got the purple with graffiti but can't find the graffiti....

mistressploppy · 09/09/2011 12:07

Found it. You can't see it Smile

goatinacoat · 09/09/2011 13:15

Oh God, have just bought the ivory version. Am such a folllower Blush

SemperUbiSubUbi · 09/09/2011 15:20

Mine arrived this morning.

I love it, have been swanning round town in it all day. Bit hot for it but it will keep me very snug through winter.

I can add pictures if anyone wants any?

goatinacoat · 09/09/2011 19:50

Ooh yes please Smile

Angel786 · 09/09/2011 20:36

mistressploppy did you border yours yesterday? I also ordered the purple one but hasn't come yet Sad. Am guessing it's not silk / cashmere but still v nice?

mistressploppy · 09/09/2011 20:42

I ordered on Wednesday, Angel, from the seller you linked to. I'll put a pic on my profile. It's definitely not cashmere and silk! Feels cottony but is probably manmade something-or-other. It is soft and snuggly and lovely though Smile

Angel786 · 09/09/2011 20:49

Oh fab, will check the pic. Am excited Grin

millie19 · 09/09/2011 20:50

Oh dear, just convinced myself I needed the grey one to go with berry coloured skinny jeans I've bought from Boden!

BarbaraWoodlouse · 09/09/2011 20:53

Not on your profile yet mistressploppy. But your birth story sounds interesting....? Smile

mistressploppy · 09/09/2011 21:03

Sorry, got distracted! Should be there now.

It is really big too. Like, big enough to drape over DS's cot to make a den Grin

Barbara - my waters went at work (DS was a month early) and labour was 45mins! Made it to hospital but no time for anything else!
