Pleats and lace. Two things that have the potential to evoke negative mental images. Pleats might remind you of school uniforms. Like unflattering wool, navy and grey tartan that hits below the knee (i.e. not sexy Britney Spears circa 2000). And lace might remind you of all things bridal gone terribly wrong. After embarking on the quest to find my own wedding gown, I’d know. So, being the Type A girl I am, I embraced the challenge to combine pleats and lace in a way that wouldn’t give me nightmares. I think I did alright. What do you think?
Sidenote: pretty sure I had more fun twirling around in this midi skirt than I have in all of my other shoots combined. Don’t have a midi yet? Check out my Mavatar collection for ideas and enjoy all the sales I’ve found!
Choies crochet top, ASOS skirt (also in a maxi!), Vince Camuto pumps, Tom Ford sunglasses, clutch (similar, similar) H&M necklace (love this), Smashbox lipstick (hello Memorial Day sale!)
Linking up with Vodka Infused Lemonade, Perfectly Coutured, Mix & Match Fashion, and Living in Color Style
Beautiful look you have put together!
Such an adorable skirt! And I love it with the lace top!

Head Enough
This is so gorgeous darling!
Girlfriend, the first picture is absolutely stunning! Love the outfit. Don’t love the fact that it drew me into an ASOS hole where I spent $150 on rompers. Eep!
This look is so chic and gorgeous! You did a great job mixing these contrasting elements. I love the color of the skirt.
