friday's fancies #20.

Happy Friday! I'm reminiscing today for Friday's Fancies :) I'll simply be remembering what we were doing a year ago today while on our Parisian honeymoon. {cv} and I strolled the streets of Montmartre and had our silhouettes cut by a street artist. We walked from that corner of the city all the way back to our hotel near the Arc de Triomphe. We stopped for crêpes along the way {something which became a daily occurrence during our honeymoon!} and started dreaming about what we'd do with a few extra days in Paris if the volcanic ash affected our travel plans...which it so conveniently did :)

This would be an outfit I would love to wear on a dreamy Parisian day, strolling 
the streets and exploring quiet cafés, though I'll admit I would probably pack a 
pair of flats in that dreamy YSL bag to save my feet from ruin after a few hours...

1) This dress may be a little fancy for walking the streets of Paris, but French women always look so fabulously put together...and this is a Friday's Fancies post--so I think I'm allowed ;) I adore the colors in this Dior Cotton Poplin Mini Dress. The ivory and navy twisted in a gorgeous dye look almost like a work of art and the pricetag would hold up that idea too!
2) {cv} and I wandered into Hermès one afternoon during our stay--and let's just say we didn't quite look the part of an Hermès customers in our jeans and New Balances. Even still, I have a dream to own one of their quintessential enameled pieces, like this Narrow Printed Enamel Bracelet.
3) While not the most comfortable of options, I had to chose these Christian Louboutin Ankle Wrap Platform Sandals. Their navy color and general gorgeousness would make me feel like a million euros walking down Rue Rivoli.
4) This Yves Saint Laurent Roady Shoulder Bag would allow me to carry my Nikon, a pair of flats, and even a map without any fuss. It may not have much detail, but it certainly plays the part in that rich navy hue.

Do you gravitate toward any one city's style?

Need some fun inspiration for your Friday's Fancies post on Friday, April 29th?

I'll be pulling together what I would be wearing to the Royal Wedding, if I were lucky enough to attend! If you'd rather, you could also pull together what your dream look for your viewing party ;) Non-themed Friday's Fancies are certainly welcome on that Friday, but I thought I'd take a spin on the Royal Wedding like I did for the Oscars!

If you're new to Friday's Fancies, have no fear! Check out this post for some helpful hints and feel free to email me for more information :) Remember--the main goal is to dream big and forget about pricetags! Anything goes for Friday's Fancies!
