With Wendy: DIY Lace Beach Dress

It will only cost you about $25 in materials!

We don't know about you, but these cold, dark days have us dreaming of sunshine and sandy beaches.

If you're lucky enough to be planning a warm weather escape this winter, chances are you'll be in need of some new beachwear. So this week, With Wendy is teaching us how to make a light and breezy lace beach dress that's perfect for slipping over swimwear.

The design for this dress is inspired by a Chloé guipure lace and linen mini dress that was about $4,000. Wendy's DIY version, however, only cost her about $25 in materials. And in our opinion, it looks just as gorgeous. See for yourself:
