While most of us think of lace as a dressy item, accessory, or embellishment it has become a huge fall trend for day or evening. And the thing about lace is, it’s not like wide leg pants or bows on blouses this year. It’s an element of the design, not THE design. Meaning, while it’s popularity will wax and wane, it will remain a classic. I’ve picked some beautiful dresses but also a couple more casual items for those that don’t want to go full on. This is definitely a way to be “in style” with adding just a bit or you can do a lot.
In my humble opinion, Kate Middleton, now Princess Kate, will probably go down in history as a style icon along the lines of her mother-in-law, Lady Diana, Grace Kelly, etc. On a tour to Canada she walked off the plane in this gorgeous Erdem blue lace dress. Look no further for somebody to observe for consistent classic style.

Here is another gorgeous option for a lace dress. For those that like more coverage, take note of the high neck and full length sleeve. The lace and strap shoe add a real punch to this lbd. Loverly!

This beautiful blouse is very pretty with the blue skirt but I can really see it with a beautiful pair of winter white pants or maybe even a pair of dark wash trouser jean with a fantastic pop of color shoe. And of course the black lace will pair fantastic with any metallic.

And of course, the designer price tag doesn’t have to come with a nice lace piece. This little sheer jacket has sweet ruffle shoulders. Slip it on over a black silky tank or for a fall feeling, try something brown or bronze. A fabulous dress up anything item. Check-out the cute ruffle along he bottom. Comes in black also and is just as great.

If you are looking for an easy and very fall trend to incorporate this October lace is your look to try. You don’t have to spend the big bucks or invest in an entire look. A blouse, a skirt, a shoe (cuuute), or even lace trim on a particular piece will bring you quickly up to date.
I’d really love to see any outfits you come up with….
Now for a bit of housekeeping…..to put it bluntly, this finishing up this cancer process is for the birds! So completely tired of it all….ugh. Anyway, I told you I wouldn’t be bombarding you with posts and no worries, they have been few and far between! I hope to pick up the posting soon. But, on a similar thread, as always any sharing and/or signing up is extremely appreciated….this year I hope to really increase my readership and therefore business.
Thanks for reading and I AM working so give me a call if needed!
