Laced and Loving It

Yesterday we did rocker.  I hope you loved it.  Today we're going the other direction: lace!  So sweet and delicate but also can be very sexy and professional.  Remember lace very easily can look like a nightgown, find pieces with structure and shape- especially if you wear it to the office.

Also lovebugs, first call for recipes for Friday Foodday!

Donna Morgan, lace dress, $96
Let's say you're meeting his parents out for dinner.  You want to look stylish, sophisticated, beautiful, and classic.  This is your dress.

Asos, mango lace, $42
I love this scalloped hem line.  This is great under a blazer or in summertime with chino shorts.

Note the "mini" in this skirt please! This pattern almost seems architectural doesn't it? Beautiful!

Charlotte Russe, romantic pearls and lace, $6.50
How sweet is this bracelet?  Vintage looking and it doesn't break the bank.

It's all in the details with this top: razor back, zipper, scoop neck, pink underlay.

So what do you think? Feminine yet polished is what I like to keep in mind when looking for lace pieces.  While the item doesn't have to be darted perfectly, I like to shy away from skin tight lace or loose silk/lace combinations.

Be fabulous today!
