Styling: The Lace Skirt

June 16, 2013

Hello dahhhhlings!! 

I hope y'all have had a wonderful weekend! I absolutely can't tell you how excited I get when I have a friend ask me a fashion question!!! One of my favorite parts about being a fashion blogger is brainstorming outfit ideas, and then putting together a Polyvore with ideas. The other day one of my good friends from college sent me a message asking me about what kind of top she should wear with a cream lace skirt she had recently purchased from Forever 21. I just LOVE that lace is a big trend right now in skirts, shorts and dresses. It just screams "girly" to me and if there is ONE thing that I am, it's girly. SO when she emailed me asking how to style it, I put together 4 different looks!! See them below in the Polyvore I made, and scroll to the bottom for more detailed information on why I decided to style these outfits the way I did.....



Styling: The Lace Skirt




1. Trendy: Add a pop of color to a cream lace skirt with a neon top and accessories. I just LOVE the bright pink in this top paired with neon yellow. This is a fun look for a night on the town!


2. Ultra Feminine: To play up the super "girly-ness" of a lace skirt, why not add a floral print?! I just LOVE this peplum strapless top and florals are so beautiful for the warm summer months. Don't forget to add the final girly touch with a pair of bow sandals. Doesn't get more feminine than this look!!!

3. Casual: While you can play up the femininity of a lace skirt with look number 2, look number 3 offers a casual contrast with a chambray shirt. Add a pair of nude wedges for the perfect look for a warm summer day!!!


4. Dressy: For a dressy look, I paired the skirt with a black ruffled blouse and black stilettos. This would be great for a nice dinner. Add a string of pearls to dress it up even more!!! 

So how would YOU style a lace skirt?! 

If you ever have any styling questions, I absolutely LOVE creating new looks so be sure to e-mail me at ashleyspassionforfashion@gmail.com!! 

Thanks SO much for reading dolls!!

XOXO

  3. I love polyvore too, but spend way too much time on it hehehe! Love the looks you've created, I prefer to style lace with a bit of leather to toughen it up!
