Lace Looks from Anjula . . .

From Dolce & Gabbana to Alberta Ferretti, designers are making delicate, romantic lacy layers a hit this summer!  Tons of lace dresses and lace skirts were seen on designer runways in different color palettes and styles.  Although lace has made a powerful comeback for the summer, it is a material that comes on and off the runway.  It’s important to purchase classic lace pieces that can be worn without looking dated . . .

You can also purchase pieces that have a hint of lace that adds a feminine feel like the Coral kimono lace detail top.  This piece can be worn season after season without ever looking outdated.  It is flattering for those who may not want to show their upper arm, but who still want to stay cool and breezy.  Use the waist tie to accentuate the waistline and to add shape to the torso.  Pair this top with a pair of jeans and heeled sandals for a dressy look.

For evenings and more formal occasions, add a crisp wide leg trouser and a pair of heels. Lace should fall nicely over curvy figures and flatter your curves, so avoid starchy stiff lace.  Instead, go for narrower lace fabrics with more flow to add a romantic and feminine feel to your look!  Items such as floor-length semi-sheer dresses and skirts like the blue print and lace skirt give you that romantic summer look, while keeping you comfortable and cool.  For a more dramatic look, pair this skirt with loose, effortless hair and chunky bangles.  Have fun with all the lace options available this summer . . .
