**Friday's Fancies**

Since I'm just hanging out waiting for 5 o'clock to come, I decided to join in on this week's Friday's Fancies link-up. The theme is 'Oscar-worthy' and with this year's Submarine Ball coming up in just a short couple months, I thought I would put together some ideas for the early April event.

Last year, I wore a short chiffon dress from JCrew because the ball took place at an outdoor venue that did not have air conditioning. Like last year, I would like to go for a dress with a pop of color since it will, once again, take place in the spring.

 ie. (sorry for the blurry pic)

  This year, the event will be held at a hotel ballroom and since we are staying overnight at the hotel, I won't have to worry about traveling in a long dress or the humidity. Also, the early April temperatures will be much more favorable for dressing formal :)

Here are a couple dresses and some matching accessories that I have had my eye on...

 
This dress also comes in pink (see below)

Great picks! My vote goes to....the second gown! The one shoulder adds a bit of fun and the ruching to the side adds some extra sex appeal to the gown. Lovely!
