Friday's Fancies: Summer Sunset

I'm so excited for All Things Luxurious to be participating in a fun weekly series called Friday's Fancies, hosted by {av} from Long Distance Loving.  Every week, {av} sends out an e-mail with a theme, and then it is our job to come up with an outfit for the theme -- without price being an object!  We're supposed to dream big, if we want to!  Fun, right?

This week, the theme is Summer Sunset.  Here are my picks...




Friday's Fancies -- Summer Sunset



This J. Crew shift dress is just so cute -- I love the shape of it and the 3/4-length sleeves.  The color of the stripes is so soft, too -- and I love stripes!  :-)

The flower lattice necklace is also from J. Crew and I think it is so gorgeous.  I have never seen a necklace that is so pretty and makes such a statement, but also seems delicate.  And the lovely peachy-coral color is to die for!

I have loved this Kate Spade handbag for a long time.  And it is even prettier in person!  The creamy color is perfect for this outfit because it doesn't compete with the accessories!

And these shoes?  Oh.  My.  Gosh.  Be still my heart.  I just love them.  They're from Kate Spade as well, and they match the color of the necklace perfectly!  I think wedges would be great for a sunset outing because they are sort of fancy-casual and are comfortable, too!

What are your summer sunset essentials?

  1. Such a cute ensemble. My summer sunset musthave is a good ol' hoodie because that's when the ocean breeze starts to get a bit cold.

    1. Thanks! I like the way you think -- a hoodie would probably be a more practical way to go! ;-) Love them!

  4. LOVE the Kate Spade purse, I have my eye on a similar one in black. That dress is perfect! Think I may have to buy the one like it from Gap. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!
