Great post!I always dont know what to wear for it picnic! These are perfect inspirations!
Oh, how can you do this to me? I am utterly obsessed with picnics. There is nothing I long more than for a cute boy to invite me on one. I honestly cannot stop staring at this post. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this! :)
that green strapless dress is divine--I am completely in love with the cut of it!! Have a great Sunday, CC :-)
I'm sorry I haven't been here in a while, but school is finally out so now I will have time to get back to checking out my fave blogs! I just brought this cute picnic dress and I think I may wear it next week out to lunch with my friends. Lovely post!
so inspirated... YAY! Go to the picnic all of fashionistas! LOL! :)
XOXO
gr8 picnic outfits...
i loved the yellow , green and pink costumes...
I love picnics...and I live in Scotland, which has perfect picnic scenery. Shame about the weather :(
Those dresses are stunning!
i like that dress that is yellow and like two spots of pink on the dress i think it's simple but hot
I'm in love with the ruffled dress from fredflare! The painting looks gorgeous too :D!
I wish the weather get warmer and sunnier because if it is raining is very difficult to go for a picnic!
xx
I'm in love with that light blue sun dress! How pretty. :)
And that ants bracelet is hilarious.
Love your photo! For many years I stayed at the Palace hotel with that EXACT view of St Patrick's and that lovely roof garden, (what's the name of that building??)
My trips always involved the Piers or the Javits and on those warm August days all I wanted to do is go to that roof garden and pool.
Love your aesthetic and your never ending variety of posts.
This is so not my style but still very cute and whimsical
Thanks for the shopping tips! Love picnics! I adore the second pic and the one of Agyness!! She looks amazing. Hope you're enjoying your weekend!!

My favourite Manet painting!! Haha, I remember when it came up in one of my lectures, and I made a rather audible sound of excitement. The Aggy Vogue shot is so fantastic, I am so considering mint trousers! Wow love the print of the Nicole Farhi frock :) Ooh and the Junya Watanabe skirt has such an amazing shape. Sooo want the BB picnic basket! Annnd the Teen Vogue shot is adorable :)

I love that last picnic picture. I want to have a picnic like that!
My car is fixed now :D
I love the Moschino ad and all the dresses. This is so my style!
Lovely post. I love the green and white plaid dress and how it is sewn.

that moschino ad is so gorgeous!! xx
Love that painting by Manet. And all the dresses are adorable!
The gingham is wonderful - especially the pretty green dress! ...and I wouldn't say no to the attractive/ quirky black and white floral number with the striped red top underneath! Actually, it's all lovely!
the blue dress is awesome carrie
i always love the moschino ads! and loving the green on that dress!
Ah, I've always loved the idea of an elegant picnic! Those checkered dresses are great. But my ultimate purchase would be one of those picnic hampers...sigh.

I love dresses and picnics are my favorite...so whimsical and romantic!
I love this post! Gorgeous!
LOVE IT -- so synonymous with spring and summer and having fun (:
One must definitely be chic while picnicing!
BTW... I had no idea you would be showing the pictures from your pool party... ooooh WE do look like we are having FUN!!! ;)
The reference to Manet is due... and great ! It's amazing how art history and (recent) fashion are connected.
Besides this TOTALLY gives me the envy to do some pic-nic ASAP... ^^
Wow..love this post, sweeties! :)))
I adore picnics..and the pieces you've shown are perfect for it:))
adore this post! I need that dvf dress in my life!
Love, love, love. Picnics are one of the things I miss most here in Hong Kong. First of all, it rains all the time. And secondly, there's no grass. So sad!
