This is my favourite lace skirt from H&M, I love wearing it with a breton, denim shirt or grey sweater as I think it looks better dressed down, somehow it makes it look more expensive.
Here is some more inspiration from Pinterest:
 |
| Wear your lace skirt with a grey jumper |
 |
| Lace looks great with a chunky jumper |
 |
| Such a luxurious look with muted khaki silk blouse and tan clutch. |
 |
| Laura Fantacci of WIT blog wears hers with a J Crew grey sweater. |
 |
| Add a grey tee for an easy and classic look |
 |
| Love the structured crop top with the lace skirt. |
 |
| White tee, denim shirt and a lace skirt an easy and stunning combination. |
The key is to dress down your top half to balance out the intricate detail of the skirt. If possible wear with a small heel as this is always more flattering on your legs, but if it is hot then I think a gold pair of strappy flat sandals would look just as good. Add some fine gold jewellery and keep accessories simple, a pop of colour looks great, you can add a block colour handbag/clutch in orange or red.

DeleteWow the Primark shoes are stunning! I never go to Primark but it might be time to have a look.
ReplyDeleteI know they look good I haven't seen them in the 'flesh' but will be hunting for them x
DeleteJust trying to remember which shop I was in after Christmas and saw a lace skirt reduced drastically. Trouble is the weather was cold and very wet and I wasn't in the mood for a cream lace skirt at the time. Darn it! I really love lace especially when it's toughened up with denim or leather. Lovely outfits Frances x
ReplyDeleteAnnoying when that happens you see the perfect one at the wrong time! Xx
DeleteLove lace skirts, I have 3 including the green WIT one - I make take my navy mini one from J Crew on holiday with a grey tee and silver flats. Gorgeous picks here - I love the warehouse one. Loving your style pics as usual. X
ReplyDeleteOooo a navy mini one sounds fab, you'll look lovely! Xx
DeleteI am now totally kicking myself for not picking up a lace pencil skirt that was drastically reduced in Primark earlier this year! I love the neon Oasis skirt.....that would look superb with tanned pins! xx
ReplyDeleteAargh a primark one would be fab and reasonable!!xxx
DeleteI have that green lace skirt that Laura is wearing and love it! Beaut as always x
ReplyDeleteThat green skirt is gorge you'll look fab in it! Xx
DeleteAfter seeing this I may try the lace skirt ( my legs will howl ) but they look so good dressed down. You are spot on. H x
ReplyDeleteThanks Helen, you will look fantastic in a lace skirt xx
DeleteLove the way you've paired yours with some stripes and the fab H&M sandals/shoes. I don't know what to call them! I don't get out enough but if I did - I'd certainly invest and wear as you've directed, a little more dressed down on the top to let the skirt do all the talking.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue and thanks for inspiring me to do a post on this xxxx
DeleteYou do casual so well Frances, you look gorgeous in all your outfits. I have a black lace skirt someone, I don't think I ever sold it but if I find it I know it won't fit any more grrrrr
ReplyDeleteI think the skirts are so great & love them with a simple grey tee! Those Primark shoes are so cute! You look great as always Frances! Ax
