Love and Lace


The lace trend is one that we are seeing more and more of. On the runways, at lunch, a night out. The amazing thing about lace is that it is wearable for many different occasions. It's great day to night look. Lace makes for a delicate and feminine subtle radiance. There a few things to remember to achieve this lady like look!

When choosing your lace attire, opt for a sturdier lace. This simply means to stay away from stretchy lace, as this can cheapen your style. I tend to gravitate towards a wider pattern as well. I think the wider the pattern, the more versatile it is. Making it wearable for all ages and body types.

For a day time outfit, go with a lace skirt. Traditionally stick to black or white lace. Keep your top simple when pairing with a skirt. Chose an opposing colors like white and black. Pastel can work as well. An easy accessory to put with the lace skirt is a long pearl necklace. These are easy to find and affordable now that faux pearls are in! Try a single or double strand!

Moving from casual to a more dressy outing, you can branch out to an all lace dress. For summer, I'm a big fan of the cream colored lace dress. This statement look is romantic and perfect for a whimsical summer eve! Traditionally these dress are made with a solid underlay of fabric, but for the more experienced fashionistas out there, chose to add a slip on the bottom and a sexy bra or corset as your top. When going for a daring look such as this, make sure your hem line is a little longer or the cut is more relaxed.

Look absolutely stunning in a Victorian style gone chic this summer!
