Friday's Fancies-Ombre Chic

Once again Friday has snuck up on me! I guess that's the life of having summer's off...
Austin was a blast, but I'm back in Houston with the hubs. And just in time to put together a little Friday's Fancies for ya!
Today's theme was to put together an outfit based on your favorite summer treat. I decided to choose the prettiest treats of all... watermelons and popsicles! Plus, I found so many cute ombre dresses, I decided to go with 2 looks!

Ombre Chic



My Inspiration:

And how amazing is this (sold out) dress?


The good news is this one from French Connection is still for sale!

Thank goodness its the weekend and hubby doesn't have to work! 
Do you have any exciting plans???

These ombre dresses are all so pretty! I'm especially loving that last one from French Connection...and it's on sale too! This last week of work has been super stressful, so I'm definitely looking forward to just relaxing.

Your re-created ombre look is fantastic (as is the sold out dress)! Watermelon and popsicles are simply the best for summertime refreshment.
