Exquisite Lace

Valentino Couture, 2012

This fall your wardrobe wouldn't be complete without a ladylike piece of lace. While lace is very feminine and romantic this season, it also comes with a twist. Indeed, this exquisite trend takes a turn on the dark side with many dramatic hues such as black, grey and oxblood. I have gathered some of my favorite lace pieces such as an eye-catching dress, a mysterious cape as well as stunning lace-appliquéd accessories to give you some shopping inspiration. Fancy anything?

Alice + Olivia sheer lace dress // Topshop Lace short sleeve shirt // Jason Wu lace coat // H&M knee length pencil skirt // La Perla Maison lace-trimmed silk-satin shorts // Christian Louboutin lace high heels // Dolce&Gabbana lace handbag  // Diane von Furstenberg lace clutch // Stella & Dot lace jewelry

Styling tips:
- For a sophisticated look, pick only one lace item and pair it with a solid color in the same palette.
- For an edgy yet feminine style, pair lace with leather, a striking duo this fall.
