a lacey perspective

Lace just hits the spot.

Seriously. It is not super often that I crave something lacey, but I do find that it is suddenly what I am in the mood for when thinking about classic, dressier outfits. Don’t you just feel so nice is a good lace anything? It always feels expensive (even when it is not), and feminine, and just put together. I was consciously looking for something lace when I found this Banana Republic top and it was pretty much exactly what I was looking for. Love that.

And another note, the top’s layered with a Banana tank that I snagged at the same time. I absolutely lu-ove the tank – for a gal who compulsively layers, this was the score of all scores. I don’t like layering with fitted cotton things, so when I can find a good old polyester one that hangs and allows for that loose tail look, I’m all in.
