How to Wear Lace This Season


Lace is one of my favorite fabrics. I'm drawn to it by its different feels. By look, lace is sweet, soft and feminine, but it can also be also romantic and sexy. As the years go by, lace has become more and more coveted. In fact, it is having quite a moment this season and so, we wanted to capture the multiple ways you can get on this trend. The styles now are beyond just the lace cami or white lace summer dress (although we did find nice picks for those below if you are searching for that!). Here are 10 different ways to wear the beautiful fabric. All our finds are under $100 too!

    Lace is nice for accessories but I don't think I want to be draped in it!
