Lace me up

Whenever I thought of lace I would either picture matronly schoolmarmish outfits or over the top lingerie. Neither a category I’d say is suitable for everyday wear ;) . However, I have finally come around to accepting the romantic textile into my wardrobe, and let me tell ya, lace will make you feel good. In a modern cut, it is ultra-feminine with a bit of rogue Gothic (I’m talkin historical) aftertaste.

How I’m wearing it:

Cap sleeve DIY top
Urban outfitters wrap skirt (absolutely love the gold details and Asian-inspired print!)
Mootsie Tootsie peep-toe bow embellished kitten heels
Anthropologie rhinestone bracelet
Urban Outfitters rock and chain necklace (the natural elements really contrast well with the otherwise fairly tailored look, mmm!)

Today I’m heading over to a going away party for a couple of my friends. I’ll admit I’ve been feeling a bit down and out lately. Many of my companions are at that age where it’s time to start thinking about the next stage of life – having kids, moving for work or school, etc. It’s simply me being selfish, but I’ve become content with how things are and the growing pains haven’t been fun. Mais, c’est la vie! I just hate saying goodbyes…

Like the look? Let me know! Also, don’t forget to follow my makeup challenge daily on my FB Fanpage!
