Happy Friday, friends!

First, I want to thank you all for 'liking' my Friday's Fancies post last week! Thanks to you I'm being featured on {av}'s blog today! Hugs and kisses to each of you!
As you're reading this, I'm headed to northern Virginia for an exciting summer weekend. Tonight my two best friends and I are going to be hopping around DC- shopping, eating, drinking, gossiping and all-around loving on each other as it's been far too long since the three of us were together! So, what better way to kick-start this wonderful weekend than with some relaxing, fun images and an outfit to match?!

Cheers to summertime and new adventures!

I always think summer weekends should be easy-breezy. I chose this darling sailor stripe dress and pepped it up with some colorful beads, Kate Spade straw tote and bright nails in my new favorite color. Perfect for a weekend with girlfriends and meeting the parents, don't you think?!

Wishing you all a fabulous weekend!
