dream big.

With Friday on the horizon, I get excited...it means Friday's Fancies posts are right around the corner! I've come to really love Fridays. When I created the Friday's Fancies concept last November, I did so because I knew I needed to rein in my spending. I love to shop---almost as much as I love 

J.Crew or JIF peanut butter {which is a LOT}. 

My solution? Create outfits which satisfy my shopping needs without spending a penny! I think about what activities my Friday night will hold and then envision what I'd wear if money were no object. Sometimes I even dream up my activity--or create outfits for later in the weekend. 

It's all good...I'm dreaming here, remember?

Here's my little advice for those of you hoping to do Friday's Fancies posts in the future...

Over the past ten weeks, more than 200 other Friday's Fancies posts have been linked to {long distance loving}! I'm always so honored to see the time and effort bloggers put into their posts. The best part of Friday for me? Getting to take a step back...and watch others dream big :)

Though I use Adode Illustrator, most of the Friday's Fancies faithful utilize the fabulous fashion time void known as Polyvore. You don't have to use any design programs though...using pictures works perfectly too. Maybe what you're fancying this Friday isn't in the form of clothing--that's fine too. Your only requirement is to share your dreams!

Are you a Friday's Fancies faithful? Do you have any tips for newbies?

Check back here tomorrow to see what masterpieces your fellow bloggers created this week :) 

I'd love to see your dreams in the gallery! xoxo {av}
