Board #347: Ladylike Linen & Buttery Silk Faille
I probably could have posted this photo by Ellen Von Unwerth on its own to provide you with inspiration today, but I couldn't resist a wedding board based on Carolina Herrera's "ladylike linen top and buttery silk faille and tulle skirt" (Vogue's description).

Beautiful board...that Carolina Herrera gown is stunning.:)
Martha B.
Love it! Love the dress as well. I think I'm becoming a fan of yellow all because of you!
This is so fresh and different! I love it!
Oh, it's so fun! I even feel a little warm Caribbean breeze blowing, despite my immediate chilly surroundings.
That staircase is one of my favorite places! It's from a buidong in Havana that houses, among other things, oneof the best restaurants in Cuba - Paladar La Guarida. So cool to see it here!
Gorgeous board and love the unique color combinations!
OH wow. That skirt is gorgeous. I agree: it could stand on its own [however, I am glad you've created this pretty board around it].
Loving this board for it's many florals and sweet details. That invitation is great.
Those colors are fantastic, I love the lemony yellow
ohh - i have the photo in my inspiration archives as well! so glad you did a board on it - just gorgeous!!
Lovely dress! Lovely board. I adore anything that makes me think of long, languid days in the Colonial-era tropics. (Well visually, if not politically) Sigh.
The vogue model is stunning.
I love this - that picture in the hat is wonderful!!! thanks for giving my blog credit for the Messel house - much appreciated, thank you!
Woah. I want that gal's skirt.
Does Anyone know where I could find that skirt, i.e. which collection it is from?
