Big Mario Life: Fab Friday's Fancies

Grab a Button!

posted on: 1.20.2012

Happy Friday lovelies! I've been spending quite a bit of time on pinterest lately and I just couldn't help but be inspired for this week's Friday's Fancies by some of the images. The forecast calls for rain all weekend long so it's no surprise I've got gray on the brain. BUT ... this outfit isn't inspired by gray gloomy days. Oh no no no. It's inspired by beautiful blue raindrops and bright electric lightning like that shown in this fabulous manicure:

So of course that manicure Inspired this week's Friday's Fancies!

1. Matchstick jeans - a total classic
2. Original Hunters
3. Burberry single-breasted garbadine trench coat - I rarely find single-breasted trench coats but I absolutely love them. And what better color to contrast a gray rainy day than bright sky blue? I'm thinking maybe no belt for this particular outfit, though.
4. Zoey pullover - How adorable is this top?
5. Timeless tank - I'm all for "fashion forward" but I need a tank under my sheer tops. I'm not that brave.

(Secret time - I actually kinda love gray rainy days. Is that weird??)

Happy Weekend!!!

Anyway, I love the color inspiration & the outfit you created with it! Especially that jacket & those boots! So cute for a rainy day!
