I agree, something about the casual attitude of the chairs in that formal room that eases everything- just like that dress-both-from CH.<br /><br />Laurent, agreed about the Stefanidis home in Greece. Best left to other worldly blues and white cottons and canvas-with a wash of faded pinks. I think Better a tucking in of checks that the dreaded stripe on most any tummy -I love stripes but hung up my sailor shirt long ago.pgtP.Gaye Tapp at Little Auguryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15115534755711063462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498357134928699381.post-11110454128151607822011-05-19T13:11:56.222-04:002011-05-19T13:11:56.222-04:00Sunday- I know the dress will be beautiful, very e...Sunday- I know the dress will be beautiful, very exciting for you and your daughter.<br /><br />Diane- I agree about the checks and summer. I do like them to wear-nothing better than a small blue and white check shirt. I like stripes-and plaids too-but prefer their closer kinsman.

And thanks for the photos of La Carolina. Those Fortuny-esque pleats frothing out from under her skirt are marvelous like waves on the beach--there's that summer theme again!Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07044021227952639108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498357134928699381.post-91326858496477855102011-05-18T09:58:16.968-04:002011-05-18T09:58:16.968-04:00Love those dresses by Carolina Herrera.

It isn't, however, to insinuate one's way back in, however, to propose Stefanidis for his home in Greece, before those of others elsewhere. But if you think it's tricky to sort out checks for a tufted chair, I count on you to empathise with tucking a checked shirt over a post-adolescent tummy. :)Laurenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17972899387484460347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498357134928699381.post-71629631699074518532011-05-17T20:54:19.674-04:002011-05-17T20:54:19.674-04:00I absolutely love Carolina's style - how to el...I absolutely love Carolina's style - how to elevate a shirtdress to a ballgown.
