Friday's Fancies :: Decked out for the Derby

Happy Friday everyone! At last the weekend is here. The weather here in New York has been crappy as hell- raining all week! I just checked the forecast and it's supposed to rain all weekend, too- which sucks because my friends and I were planning a picnic on Saturday! Silly us for not checking the weather :( Maybe next weekend!

Anyway, looks like it'll be a quiet weekend in. I think I'll catch up on some projects I've been neglecting. I've been working on colorblocking a pair of my wedges that I got from Target years ago. Here's an update on my progress:

I am working on another coat of blue paint, because I want them to be as bright as possible! I unfortunately forgot to take a picture of what the shoes looked like before. Oh well. The wedge was black before, you can use your imagination.

So, if it wasn't official already- I'm completely addicted to colored denim! I snagged a pair of purple pants the other day!

I'm linking up with {av} at {longdistanceloving} for this weeks Friday's Fancies theme is Decked out for the Derby. I thought this was such a cute idea-- I've always wanted to go to the Kentucky Derby just to be able to dress up and wear a fancy hat! Truth be told, this is not a very fancy hat. Where does one shop for such an extravagant hat? 

Dress- Asos
Hat- Asos
Clutch- Barneys
Shoes- Nordstrom 

And a special happy birthday to my wonderful mama! You're the best, I love ya! :)

I hope you all have a great weekend! 
Thanks for reading :)

It's finally Friday! I'm linking up with {av} at {long distance loving} for Friday's Fancies... this week's theme is Hollywood Glam! If I were to ever have the honor of attending the Oscars, I'd have a hard time deciding between this Issa Silk-Jersey Maxi Dress and this Marchesa Notte Strapless Ruffled Silk Cocktail Dress. These Gucci pumps are stunning, I love the gold chain t-strap and the gold trim on the heel!

The weather has finally began to *start* to warm up! Yesterday we hit 60° F! I am really ready for Spring, although I am thankful for the mild winter we've had here in New York. Have a great weekend!! I'll be hitting the books hard this weekend- projects, tests, and midterms galore! Cheers!

My aunt posted this on my Facebook page today, she said my Papa Bill loved this song. I love this song, too, and this man sings it with such soul. Enjoy.
