Style Inspiration: Island Lace


I've been having a love affair with lace lately.  Whether it's a dress or cropped top, lace just brings a sexy and romantic vibe to your look.  For Mom's Day dinner on the island, we went for casual Thai dining.  I opted for evening shorts and dressed it down with a tank and knit jacket.  Love the scalloped layers on these and it feels very feminine.  My husband's reaction, "it's cutesy sexy, not so overtly sexy."  Haha!  Always nice when he gives me feedback on what I'm wearing.  Truth is, shorts totally take me out of my comfort zone.  You know that one part of your body that isn't your favorite?  Mine are my legs.  But, I'm coming around and learning to embrace them.  One great thing about shorts is when paired with wedges, my legs look much, much longer.

Accessories: Hubby knows me well and apparently gets ideas from the blog.  Does the crossbody look familiar?  Guess he knew I would love it.  And I do!  The color wasn't as bright as I had thought-more mustard yellow and subtle.  But it was the perfect punch of color with my neutrals.  For evening, I love adding a statement bracelet or cuff.  This aquamarine bracelet by LOFT reminds me of the tropical waters.  It's so beautiful!!
