At my grandson's outdoor wedding last weekend in Tennessee, I was just stunning in my Smithsonion scarf and my rust cape from London, with my mother's diamond pin and my cowboy boots. Many faceted person that I am, the lovely scarf represented my classy/flashy personality!

I sent this as a b'day gift to my sister who was born in December. She was thrilled, saying it is gorgeous and for the weather of Fla where she lives, excellent. She thought she would have many opportunities to wear it.
