One of the hottest trends for Fall 2010 is…

lace

I absolutely adore lace because it is so dainty, girly, elegant and romantic *swoon* BUT

how is a mom to pull it off at preschool drop-off without looking like a doilie (or worse ifyouknowwhatimean

Pin It

)?

The good folks at Glamour are on top of this with this piece on What To Wear With A Lace Tee.

Remember to

• keep it simple
• keep it chic
• go for a consistent romantic vibe
• or switch it up by adding military or menswear pieces
• take it the vintage route

You can also…

• wear a lace piece with loungewear for a comfortable glamorous look
• add a lace scarf around the waist of plain tank, dress, or button down shirt (you could even just get some lace from the craft store)
• tie some lace around your ponytail, bun, wrist,  or around the brim of a hat
• the options are endless so think outside the box!!!

Take care of your lace and stick it in a lingerie bag when laundering in the machine.

I recently bought this h.i.p peekaboo lace tank at Nordstrom’s and I like to dress it up with my favorite flower pin or throw a cardigan over it (and then plant my flower pin on it).

As always, Nordies has a wonderful assortment of lace goodness (I love it when stores  make it easy on us by grouping trend pieces).

And….I pulled together my favorite (under $25) lace pieces, Charlotte Russe has got the best under $25 selection IMO.  Click any piece to take you to it’s retailer.
