Era of Lace

The 'Victorian' style is very in this fall but what does that mean? I don't know about you but I don't plan on breaking out my corset anytime soon. Instead try brocade, velvet, and more lush feeling fabrics. Another way to try this trend is lace. These lace panel pieces look expensive and delicate but they will be a go to, hard working item in your closet.

Forever 21, Floral Lace Paneled Top, $27

This top is just beautiful. I love the scallop hem or the lace.

Nordstrom, BB Dakota Yale Lace Panel Fit and Flare Dress, $88

Have a fall wedding this year? This beauty.

Romwe, Doll Collar Lace Paneled White Blouse, $19

How sweet is this top? I love it with leggings and lace up flats.

My Habit, The Cue Tina Lace Top, $54

This top screams romance. Soft, sexy, and subtle.

Trends will come and go and they will continue to test our patience, but the lace panel look is one that will be sticking around for a while.

Ankle Party

Everybody loves a good arm party. We know that. It is a well established fact. But what about your ankles. That's right, that naked part between the calf and foot, let's dress it up. I'm not talking about a friendship anklet, I'm talking about cuff sandals. A special type of sandals that treat your ankles like the hard working parts they are.

Mango, Fringe Leather Sandals, $49

Embrace the ankle, ladies. Look at this playful and casual sandal that works so well with shorts or a maxi.

My Habit, Matisse Women's Jacob Flat Sandal, $45

How about this cuff? It comes in two other neutral colors and they are all 50% off.

Nordstrom, Free People Collins, $88

These remind me of the still unclear Birkenstock revival this summer but they have a bit more personality.

Amazon, Vince Camuto Ryker Sandal, $45

This will be such a staple in your closet this summer and for years to come. Sleek and sharp.

Don't leave that ankle bare! Celebrate it with these ankle cuff sandals that add some personality to your flats!

Gingham Style

Happy hump day lovebugs,
We are in the dog days of summer and you know what I associate with summer? Gingham. Warm (ok sweltering) weather, outdoor parties, it's just gingham weather. A preppy print that today we're looking at in a skirt. Quite feminine and perfect for hot weather.

Shoptiques, Jealous Tomato Gingham Midi Skirt, $35

Think simple with this skirt. A white tank. That's it. Simple. Crisp.

SheInside, Red Plaid Flare Long Skirt, $23

This skirt is summer. It is flowy, girly, and beautiful.

Nordstrom, 1.State Gingham A Line Skirt, $46

This beauty is 40% off right now. I love the length.

My Habit, Single Women's Gingham Skirt, $74

One word ladies, pockets.

Don't these skirts scream summer to you? I love them even into fall with a floral cardigan to mix prints with style.

No Cropping Needed

I really am warming up to this crop top trend. We first looked at this piece in the spring and now I want to revisit with some fun summer options. An easy way to wear this trend is a simple cotton option. Today we're stepping it up with some textured looks. These crop tops have something a bit extra.

Lord and Taylor, BCBGeneration Patterned Crop Top, $40

This color is called whisper white ad I think it's appropriate to describe the color and the pattern. So simple.

Last Call Neiman Marcus, 5twelve Floral Lace Cropped Top, $59

A nice shimmer to go with this lace. I like this for a dressier look.

My Habit, Cliche Women's Geometric Pattern Top, $34

Originally $97 this top has a beautiful crochet pattern and it perfect to pair with a simple cami.

Nordstrom, Missguided Scallop Hem Crop Top, $48

How special is this top? Feminine and in a stunning coral, plus under $50!

Crop tops can be dressed up. Look for texture, color, and embellishment that make all of the difference.
