Happy Friday, lovelies!  Today's Friday's Fancies is focused on what I would wear if a) money were no object (the main point of FF!) and b) if I were attending a wedding - which I am not.  Surprisingly few weddings took place this year amongst people I know, only one in fact!  I had a lot of fun putting this dream outfit together.  What would you dream up?

I chose a floral Dolce & Gabbana floral print dress for many reasons - and since this is Friday's Fancies and I can dream big, I'm also dreaming that I would look good in this dress too.  I love the colors in the pattern and I love how easy it was to accessorize.  I know it would look amazing paired with sexy red lipstick and the Chanel nail polish really played off the shades of red and pinks in the dress.  I can't resist a turquoise Louboutin, so naturally I had to wear those pumps.  Throw in an Alexis Bittar cocktail ring, some Tiffany diamond studs and a Kate Spade clutch and voila :: a beautiful wedding guest look.  Be stil my heart!

So what's everyone getting up to this weekend?  Tonight I'm going to see this scary movie with my SIL and MIL and I can't wait.  I love scary movies but have yet to watch one since we moved into this big, old house.  Have I mentioned that our house is 98 years old?  We're also spending some time with the FIL on Sunday to get to work on that coffee table we're making and I'm sure there will be other activities involved.  Whatever you get up to this weekend, I hope it's a good one!  And for those of you on the east coast - please stay safe!  What a week it's been for you - earthquakes and hurricanes.

'Til Monday!

I'm an in all kinds of love with this look-it's divine! Any chance you want to abandon your darling new house, move to SF and dress me every morning?

I use to love scary movies but for some reason now, in my 40s, I don't want to see them anymore. I'm hoping to get out to see The Help and of course, the auction - my Sunday ritual :)
