Noticing Amy's brand new Louis Vuitton Bandeau scarf still in it's bag I gathered my good guest wits about me and whipped out my "party piece" for the evening; an Hermes Twilly scarf wrist tying trick...
After folding your Twilly in half, lay your arm across the center and then bring the closed side across the underside of your wrist...Thread the tail ends through the loop of the closed end...
Pull each tail end in opposite directions thus cinching your Twilly or Bandeau...
Flip your arm over, kindly turning a blind eye to my just completed gazillion and one push ups and pull ups bulging veins...
Cross one tail end over the other...
Tie once...
And, voila!
Kindness of Amy Fahrenkopf for graciously appreciating my lil ole party piece considering the last time she was treated to dinner in Ireland the founder of The Chieftains played his tin whistle, the lovely actress Sarah Bolger sang Desperado and the president of Ireland recited a poem. Yeah, but can they tie a Twilly? XXOO
Now you can swank up everything from a Lacoste polo shirt to a linen dress to a jean jacket. Orrr, what you can't see in the above pics, my post P90Xhaustion and 3 miler Nike shorts, Under Armour top and a boatload of sweat...

My trick for many years was reciting a John Donne poem ('A Hymn To Christ')in an aggressive 'Shakespearean' actor's voice.

ReplyDeleteLOVE your party piece!! I love the Twilly scarf and mostly wear mine as a headband. xoxo
ReplyDeleteso adorable! too bad you're not in the TC right now- you'd fit in with my spandex running shorts (spankies!), and sweaty wife beater after my 50 min stairs run and then 10 min of treadmill cooldown!
