More Lace!

Lace Shorts

How to Wear Lace Shorts


I love lace on anything and everything, but especially on lace shorts. Lace or crochet shorts are perfect because they're feminine and girly and go with just about everything. Look for a pair with lace that's tightly knit, because then the lace looks subtle. I love this high-waisted pair from yesstyle.com:

The great thing about white lace shorts is that they are very versatile. Bright, summery colors go best, but any color of top will look good with these shorts. 

If you're looking for a dressier look, go for a black version. I chose these from Bank Fashion because they have an adorable bow, which makes them a little dressy. 
Pair these shorts with this purple button up from thecorner.com, and you'll be ready for any special occasion.

How To Wear a Crop Top

How To Wear a Cropped Shirt

At first glance, a cropped top may seem like a trend that's nearly impossible to pull off. Its shorter length can look awkward on most body types, and also expose more skin than most people are comfortable with.  However, a cropped shirt becomes a stylish addition to an everyday wardrobe when paired with high waist shorts, or other high-rising bottoms.
In this outfit, the shirt's hemline is a lot shorter than a normal shirt, but you can't really tell because the high-waisted shorts cover that lack of fabric. She still manages to look appropriate even though the shirt is shorter than a usual shirt.
