Derby Day Delights

Filed under: Inspiration Boards · Posted by: Polkadot Bride at 3:34 pm

To honour Derby Day and the thousands of race goers out at Flemington today I thought it was only right to kick off race week with an inspiration board.

Traditional derby day dress is black and white with a cornflower in the lapel. So today’s board is black, white and cornflower blue.

  1. Love the seating cards in variations of blue. Monochromatic color schemes are super chic!

  2. Do you know where on the Knot the photo of the pomanders is from? I’m looking for pomander inspiration- and searched the Knot for the photo and cannot find it.

  6. Cornflower blue is a great color even though it seems not as popular as other colors like aqua. Luv it!

  7. I adore that white dress that fades to blue! So chic! That color is so beautiful! I adore that cake with the graduated color! So fabulous!

  8. I think a subtle touch of color in any classic white wedding dress can tie almost everything in when it comes to color schemes. Im in love!
