Mid-winter lace

At the end of January, I always get the same feeling: “Where is Spring?” I know it’s far away, so for now, I appease my inner sun goddess by wearing some mid-winter lace. Lace to me is Spring. It’s light, airy, intricate and beautiful. I love this long sleeve lace top because it can be layered and requires an extra layer of a tank underneath (but you could do just a bra if you’re really daring). And it’s only $18! Such a bargain that adds something gorgeous to a casual look.

It’s a top that is great dressed down with my favorite tomgirl jeans, but I will also wear it fancy in the spring and summer – with silk shorts, bold colors, and maybe something metallic. The high-ish collar has vintage appeal and the sleeves are so pretty with some floral lace at the edge.

  A pop of lace adds elegance, detail, and a little luxe to a casual outfit. It makes me feel anything but boring. You can find stoppable links to this look below including several boyfriend jean options. My favorite version is from American Eagle (!!! shocking, right?) and called the ‘tomgirl’ style.
