Picnic Primped

April 20, 2012 By Cathy

Loft orange maxi dress, Gap white denim jacket, Jess LC Diversey necklace,
Dolce Vita Bagley sandals, foutas from One Sydney Road, KDNY by Kelsi Dagger Jaycee Dome tote,
Hive & Honey bangles, J. Crew braided belt
Happy Friday! I might be starting a slight obsession with maxi dresses and skirts. It all started this past weekend when I purchased an orange maxi dress from the Gap factory store. Which inspired me to figure out how to sew a maxi skirt. Which brings us to today’s outfit. This week’s Friday’s Fancies theme is “picnic primped” so I thought I would create an outfit based on my new orange dress. I already have similar pieces in my closet, so it’s just a matter of when!
We have some friends visiting from St. Louis this weekend. If the weather cooperates, we’ll be grilling! If it isn’t warm enough to eat outside, maybe we’ll have an indoor picnic.

If a picnic is a part of your weekend plans, why not bring along some cucumber and tomato salad, quinoa with lemon, herbs, and pine nuts, and apricot bars. And don’t forget something tasty to drink. Perhaps some raspberry lemonade or a wheat beer.

    That maxi is right up my alley. I’ll have to go over and check it out at Loft. I posted that bag earlier this week as one of my Piperlime picks! Come enter my Kate Spade giveaway if you haven’t already. Happy Friday!

    Let me just say that I’m also swooning for maxis lately–I just wish I was three inches taller so I didn’t clean the floors when I wore them ;) Love the whole look, Cathy! So glad you’re a part of the Friday’s Fancies family! Enjoy your weekend :) xoxo {av}

    Seriously now, can we just call it a weekend and meet in the park for a picnic?! Because this is the cutest outfit in the history of outdoor outfits :)
