Friday Fancies::Nautical by Nature

Happy Happy Friday Friends!!!

Normally...when Fridays roll around...I make sure to align my outfit with the weekend festivities.  But this week, {av} of Friday's Fancies challenged us to come up with a nautical theme...and not being one to pass up such a challenge, I gladly took the bait!


But have no fear, I will still share my weekend plans with you!  Saturday morning is a baby shower for a dear friend and Saturday afternoon is a high school graduation celebration!  On Sunday, I have a fun progressive dinner that my Soroptimist {ladies non-profit group} members have planned.  It's all a little eclectic...I imagine a baby pink dress with grad cap and fork in mind if I were to try to encompass this look for you.  So maybe we should all be happy that a nautical theme took priority!  :)

Of course, the gem of this look is the lovely mustard colored Madewell dress/tunic/top...it's actually a top, but HEY!  I'm Friday Fancying over here!  :)

Since I decided to turn this more into a tunic, I paired it with this awesome Vix swimsuit and fun espadrilles.  Not to be missed, is the Kate Spade purse, nautical-inspired earrings, and of course MK watch!  :)

The GOOD news about this whole nautical theme is that it's actually finally WARM here in Tahoe.  Like 70 degrees warm {I know...we're not getting crazy over here, but hey!  I'll take it!}.  I am so excited to finally get the boat out on the lake...get some beach time in, and perhaps raft the river for the first time!  

What summer plans do you have in mind???

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

  24. That is such a beautiful outfit! I'd call that top a dress, too because it looks so adorable with that belt! ;)

    My ideal summer would be relaxing on the beach - so this outfit would be perfect for doing just that! Hope you have a great weekend!
