MOMMA LOVES… a little lace

When was the last time you wore lace? It certainly seems a bit dressy or fussy for running around with your toddler or even going to work but not anymore.  Lace has been everywhere on the runway, redcarpet and of course in stores… but its not necessarily fancy.  Its decorative, yes, but its used sparingly and more as a way to add a bit of style to an otherwise very practical item of clothing.  A lace panel in a sweater, a lace ruffle on a t-shirt, or a bit of peek-a-boo that enables that item of clothing to take you from day to night.  It may sound crazy but that little bit of lace can get more mileage than you think – from the park, to the office to dinner…  There’s an easy way to dress it up or down with a bit of styling.  Throw a blazer on and you’re ready for the boardroom, pair it with boyfriend jeans and its perfect for a trip to the park, add heels and its time for a night out on the town.  I’m a believer and here are some of my favorite lace adorned pieces (and I threw in a couple little lace dresses as well since it is holiday season coming up):
