Carolyne Roehm is one of my favorite tastemakers. She is so elegant and has impeccable style. A career highlight for me was the day that I was able to help her fix her photo-slide show presentation before a speaking engagement. Her keynote presentation wasn't working on the country club's PC computer system so I excitedly came to the rescue as I had stressed over the same issue just a few months before at a different speaking engagement!
If you haven't had the chance to hear her speak, please find a way! Hunt her down! Stalk her! Chase her until you find her because she is so inspiring! From fashion design to floral design, she has truly become a style maven!
I first met her many many years ago when I was a teenager and she was giving a floral design presentation on a family trip we were on. I watched her arrange flowers and knew then that I wanted to go to flower school in Paris just as she had.
I have bundles of each of her books, and I love giving them out as gifts. Order them today if you don't already have them!

Here are some links to some of my favorite tablescapes created by Carolyne:
An Autumn lunch in House Beautiful.
A great collection of images on Stylish Serendipity Blog
A blue and white Alfresco Entertaining Story in Veranda
One of my favorites from The Enchanted Home Blog.
Clearly, she loves blue and white as much as I do!

I always love reading that other people out there share my love of Carolyne Roehm! I am from St. Louis and attended the same college (Washington University), where I also studied fashion design/history. Sadly, I was several years too late - but the stories of her fabulous personality live on! Thanks for posting!
