friday's fancies #67.

Hello friends! It's finally time for another round of Friday's Fancies! After a slightly warmer week in New England, I am aching for spring break. It is just too bad my school days are behind me ;) Happily, I can still pull together an outfit even if I am stuck in the cold! Friday's Fancies allows me to dream big without really breaking the bank, so without further ado, here is my fancy-free beachy look:


1) Anything with stripes and bows has my name all over it. From the moment I spotted this J.Crew Skinny-Stripe Bow Underwire Tank Swimsuit, I knew it was the perfect suit for this round-up. It is happy, cheery, and perfect for a worry-free day at the beach--slathered in sunscreen of course.
2) From the beach to everyday, I am positively itching to add this Penfield Boyfriend Chambray Shirt to my closet after my spending freeze is over. Tucked into the maxi, it would be a clear winner in my book!
3) These tortoise Rory Round Sunglasses from Kate Spade need to magically appear in my sunnies rotation. They are timeless and chic--an ideal combination.
4) Though I could never afford this Mason by Michelle Mason Silk Crepe de Chine Maxi Skirt, being able to pretend I could via Friday's Fancies eliminates that worry ;) Purple and yellow may not be the most common combination, but it screams spring to me!
5) Hello, Mara Hoffman Rope Bag. I honestly don't think a more versatile beach bag exists. I could carry it tomorrow--or in ten years--and it would pair beautifully with anything.
6) Painless to slip off and stow in a beach bag, this Tory Burch Wide Resin Bracelet is an easy choice. I also love pieces which work year-round--and this beauty would!
7) On a beach vacation, these Rebecca Minkoff Beach Babe Strappy Sandals wouldn't take up much space in a suitcase, but they would certainly pack a punch. Until I can afford them, I'll just wear my Rainbows and my Sperrys ;)
