& these days i wear mostly clothes
i either found on sale and
that don't make me look too fat...
sadly, my fashion sense has been pretty neglected
but as i watched the 3rd episode of Sherlock
which was a dark, more involved plot one
i realized, i am in love with Sherlock's scarf
it looks so soft, but the kind of softness that
comes with use, just like the patina developed
by the 400-year-of-use teapots from episode 2
The Blind Banker...
so trying to find out more about Sherlock's scarf
i did what any pertinent person does these days
i googled it! and what's my surprise
i am not the only one with a passion
for the scarf, the coat, 'Dr. Watson's' look,
or Sherlock's coat neck wear up!
there's even a new fashion-term
Sherlock chic!

Hola Berenice,
Sherlock has yet invaded our shores. I suppose they are busy translating the show.
As to the scarf, well I don't follow you there. It is in dark color like nearly everything people are wearing nowadays. The eternal November settled on a long-range depression.
May I humbly remark that color is life! Not dark grey.
Here, have a look, that is the real stuff for a pretty girl

hola Herr Georg
thank you for the link! yeah! that scarf is really pretty, i love the colors too
but you know? me being Mexican i have PLENTY of colorful clothes! this Summer i wear all the time some white cotton basic blouses my brought me from Mexico and Guatemala, but they ALL had some very colorful embroideries, very pretty, so it's OK for me to wear some plain dark clothes, like Sherlock, since i use color all the time
and i really hope you get to watch this Sherlock soon! the last episode is pretty dark! just like the good old Sherlock
i am not sure if you can access this site in La France, but if you do, you can watch the 3 complete episodes online, it's not the same as watching on the TV, but it's something, they will be there until December 7, so hurry up!

Thank you Berenice. I'll give it a try. Let's hope my understanding of USA English is sufficent.
Being a Mexican you are excused. But we are not and I hate seeing those grey shadows walking around here, all the time and thinking they are smartly dressed.

Just try not to pick up any of Sherlock's drug habits...
Haven't seen the show..
but, the coat + scarf matches the dark MOOD of a GOOD detective story.
Terrific work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the web. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this post higher!

Hi, I did some research and I found out that the scarf Sherlock uses (at least in series 1) is made by a designer named Paul Smith. I know that the rest of his clothing is really high-end (and expensive), but here's hoping the scarf isn't too expensive, because I would really love to own it! I already have a purple scarf that happens to look really similar, but I really want the exact same one! It would look fantastic with my black, double-breasted pea-coat. I would look like a female Sherlock! Dear lord, I've never sounded like such a fashonista in my life! What has Sherlock done to me? Also, in case you're wondering, his gloves are by Paul Smith too. They're double colored black-grey.
hola Kori! thank you for your comments, and the information on Paul Smith's designs! I had NO idea where to find the scarf, now we have hope, even if not the cash to afford it huh? If you do find it and buy it for your pea-coat, please share a photo with me! Thank you so much for the information, I am going to search online for Paul Smith designs of scarves, who knows? being the Summer so close, we might find it on sale...
