Jean Leggings

This fall it’s all about texture; as one of this season’s hottest textural trends, lace pieces can incorporate a great feminine mystique that is great for a solo ensemble or layering.

Whether you incorporate a romantic lace element to a utilitarian military look or play with texture juxtaposing lace with a tailored velvet pant, you can count on being on all the best dressed lists this fall by integrating this season’s hottest styles in one ensemble.

For an effortless dressed down look for fall pair a pastel lace top with jean leggings and ballet flats.  Layering with chunky gold jewelry will help in giving emphasis to the lace while adding a bit of a chic edge. Think about pairing your jean leggings with a lace top that is cropped and boxy in shape. This allows for a funky look that transitions well from a day to evening look.

For a sophisticated ensemble opt for a lace mini dress. Finish the look with a boyfriend blazer and some great thick sole pumps and you are ready for a night out on the town. When it comes to this look it’s all about the details. A bold exposed zipper on a pale pink or cream lace dress can make the perfect statement. If you think those fall nights might leave your bare legs cold, opt for a black jean legging underneath your mini.

The texture of the lace is key this fall, so pairing it with other interesting textiles will make for a luscious layered look. Try wearing your lace with leather, velvet, ruffles and even rough cut linen.

So don’t be afraid to show your feminine side with lace this fall; whether a dress, a shoe, a pair of shorts or a top, take your look from ordinary to edgy in lacey looks that will have you looking fabulous from head to toe.
