I guess it was only a matter of time before I would mix and match something unusual again..
Partly out of curiosity and because I really felt like trying something new, especially something that is "out of fashion" (It's always fun to try to bring something back) I wear a dress over trousers.
My findings are that it really depends on the shape of the dress and the shape of the trousers to pull it off! The lace dress is a a-line mini and the trousers are peg legged, or tapered in at the leg/ankle.
wearing: Vero Moda lace dress, Zara velvet loafers, Rebecca Minkoff bag
I'm really not used to seeing myself with an updo haha..
The (one shoulder mini) Lace dress is kind of cocoon-eywhich I really like, also the color is really good, it's almost a very pale lavender/lilac cream, in the webshop Vero Moda calls it a "Gray Morn" but I swear I see a very faint lavender while the dress is still a cream.
The color was the reason I bought the dress, there are so many lace dresses but to get the creamy color right is a different story.. a color to bright white in lace can look really cheap and a yellowish cream might not look good on fair skin!
