Take From Me My Lace

Everybody|Everywear {lace}

This month's EBEW invitation is lace. I don't wear much lace {though I adore the antiquated appeal of it}. Fun fact; my wedding dress contained not a stitch of lace, in favor of gauze.

Whether white & crisp or black & slinky, it's tough to deny that lace balances young, doll-like qualities in masterful measure with elegance & wisdom.

I met this challenge by creating a faux bib on this sundress, layering a full lace blouse beneath it.

Goin On a Bear Hunt

Something about this vest. I can't seem to escape the safari-woodsman-outdoorsy feeling I get in it. I decided to go all in & pair it with this harvest-leaf/field-print sweater dress (that I'm wearing as a shirt layered underneath the skirt), why not, right?

Lemon Lime Layers

I fancy myself a bit of a sprite. So today I decided to dress like one. Except it's a bit of a double entendre, as I costumed more like the lemon-lime carbonated beverage, Sprite, (dist. by Coca Cola), and less a woodland creature.
