LOVEly Lace Face
Omgoodness! A warm and sunny winter day is seriously the perfect excuse to take my pants off. Hmmm. Not sure that came out right. Oh well. Once I went outdoors, it was actually hard to tell which was brighter, the sun or my blindingly white legs?! Ba boom ching. Oh boy, it’s going to be one of those posts hey? Riegn. It. In.
Lately I’m really enjoying playing with the balance of casual (in this case, denim jacket & Toms) and dressy (lace & rhinestones). One of my favourite style bloggers Jules of Sincerely Jules has perfected the art of wearing sneakers with dresses and skirts (check out recent inspirational examples here & here).
I’m crossing my fingers for more sun shiny days. Check back tomorrow for a LOVEly DIY!
TODAY’S LOVE TIP: Let’s be huggers! Dole out some age/situationally appropriate hugs today, just for the sake of it. You’ll be happy. The hug-ee will be happy. Win win. Now, I realize that all this hugging might be easier for some than others, so if you’re feeling hug-adverse for whatever reason, why not dish out some epic high fives?! Good? Great. Go get ‘em. xx
Outfit Details: AE top, Gap jacket, Joe Fresh skirt, vintage and ASOS bracelets, Toms shoes, Ray Ban sunnies
I love wearing lace. Love your outfit. =)
You look lovely this outfit is perfect!
Can’t wait for you DIY :)

Thanks girlies!! xx
You are the cutest Mom ever!! Love your outfit and all the accessories.
Awww, Linds! No, YOU’RE the cutest Mom ever :) Thanks for the sweet comment! xx
I absolutely love how you’re mixing denim with the lace, sparkly bracelets and toms!! Such a great look. And the lace on lace is so great, I never thought to wear this skirt like that :)

Thanks Jenna! I wish I had your colour skirt as well! It’s a cutie!
I love Toms! I want a pair but the ones I want weren’t in the stores yet :( such a bummer! I’ll wait another month :) and I also adore your lace-on-lace combo! XO Nikki
What are your desired Tom’s like Nikki?? I’m intrigued!
High fives are a great idea. We like to do the epic ‘triple five’ for really awesome situations. Which is simply hitting the other person’s hand three times as quickly as possible.
I really love the scalloped edges here and the rhinestones are lovely!
Soo cute! You can never have too much lace!
And I love that garland you posted too! I am totally trying it!

Thanks Kirsten! You should totally try the garland! Too easy and cute not to!
Such a cute top! I think my friend pinned it the other day and I loved it then too!:)
lace on lace? BRILLIANT!!!!!! Way to work it Nat. xo
Love this outfit! So feminine yet laid back. Well done!
This is super super cute!! Love the lace on lace.
Hey Nat! I just found out your blog today and I’ll be for certain a frequent reader!! I’m from Brazil, and I like that I can see some fashion inspiration for summertime (currently going on here) and trends for winter time (where I live it’s very cold…sometimes people think that it doesn’t have cold weather here, but it does!)…. and I like how you embrace life in such a light hearted way, by celebrating holidays in a very particular way and enjoying simple little things!! Congrats for your blog! xx
Hi Thais! Welcome!! Thanks so very much for leaving a sweet comment and introducing yourself! I hope you’ll return!! xx
Love the combo of lace, denim and sparkle!
OK, 3 things:
1. I love this outfit! I pinned it and everything ;)
2. Pasty-white legs are cool… I have a pair myself and think there’s a certain 1600′s charm to them; at least that’s what I choose to tell myself.
3. I can’t get enough of your Love Month-isms… I’m mentally hugging you right now!
That’s all… Smooches!
Ha ha, Vickie! You always make me laugh!!!! And you pinned it? Snappers. That’s a bad ass compliment in itself, thanks!! I feel your metal hug, it’s awesome. Loves! xx
This is seriously my fav outfit I have seen on you! Maybe its the lace, I am obsessed with lace right now… Super cute, and i adore the juxtaposition of lace with the denim jacket and Toms. Also, those bracelets are killing me. LOVE!

THANKS Eva! That’s a lovely compliment!! You’re a doll! xx
Love the lace and scalloped edges too – both are on my must buy list for summer. Totally jealous that you can even show your legs and I’m with Vickie – they are tres chic!
Glad that you loved my little hearts – was completely inspired by the love from your blog!

I love how you mixed the black and white lace. I think you did a pretty good job of casual/dressy :)
This is gorgeous! I’ve recently paired lace with pastels but never with a jean jacket! Wonderful idea and very easy to pull off. Thanks for sharing! Oh and happy Valentine’s! xo
Thanks sweets! And Happy Valentine’s back at’cha! xx
Hello TOMS and denim! They make this fancy outfit so, so great. Just enough casual rebellion against your lovely lady lace.
