My oldest Fancy Girl has been playing fashionista with one of the new (and most twirlable) dresses she received for Christmas. She wears it practically every day, whether it’s for making a craft or reading a book. I think being fancy is her comfort zone. What’s more, she has assembled a look that is going to be perfect for when my mom and I take her to see Fancy Nancy The Musical this month. She’s already been speaking the Nancy language (“wow mom, I look super posh!”) and she references her favorite book character whenever she feels fancy or acts it (pinkies up). Seeing her live will be like a sugary topping on a vanilla parfait.
Our Fancy Nancy-inspired outfit is a Target Cherokee fuchsia party dress with Children’s Place purple cardigan-neither of which are available online. But there are plenty of purple and pink options out there to achieve a similar look. If your FG’s have any Fancy Nancy events coming up, feel free to take a cue from the tres chic ideas below.
