Seahorse Dress

This is the quintessential Summer dress. 

Blue and White Couture

Today my friend Jennifer at The Pink Pagoda is having a Blue and White Bash Linking Party. Everyone is invited to participate with a blue and white post on any topic. With so many stunning blue and white interiors over there, I thought it would be fun to do a post on blue and white couture fashion.

Stylish Flowers

I received an email yesterday thanking me for a comment I made on another blog about Grant Gibson's stunningly beautiful peony photographs. I discovered that the email was from one of the principals of Sophie Dahy Designs who create these gorgeous flower arrangements. What I love about these arrangements is that not only are the flowers lovely, they choose exquisite containers, many of which are my beloved blue and white Chinese porcelain. I love silk flowers, and have wonderful arrangements by Diane James as well as ones I have created myself. Diane James is carried in such stores as Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus and has been featured in House Beautiful. I believe Sophie Dahy Designs, the collaboration of a former high-end buyer and an interior designer, is destined to become the word in luxury silk flower arrangements along with Diane James.  I love fresh flowers for their scent and beauty of course. But I love the look of flowers all over my house and enjoy the silk ones as much. Don't be a fresh flower snob-the two can peacefully coexist in the most beautifully decorated homes.
