Sunday best: Nude lace

Ever since I saw the romantic photo-shoots of girls wearing lacey nude outfits I've been wanting to create my own outfit, I just needed one piece to make the outfit perfect, another lacey top to go under the lace top from F21.
Outfit details:
Vintage top underneath: thrifted
Lace top over: F21
Skirt: Dillards Outlet
Shoes: Dillards Outlet
Flower pin: DYI from old headband
This was another outfit I tried, however the dress is a bit too big, I still have to take in on the sides and maybe raise the hem a bit. The vintage lace jacket was long sleeve but one of the sleeves was torn so I had to shorten it and I pinned a bow because I'm a girly girl. The outfit above fit better and somehow it made me feel a bit cheery which I needed bad since I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, that's why my first reaction had been to dress in black.
It's interesting how colors can affect on your mood huh?
Dress: Banana Republic/ thrifted new
Vintage jacket: thrifted
Shoes: Marc by Marc Jacobs

Great pictures of twirling in your skirt. I can never get my pictures to turn out that well.

Your layering is ingenious. Well done!

Thank you! =D I felt pretty good if I must say so myself. Nothing like a nice outfit to cheer one up.

I love the black lace jacket, and the cropped sleeves work really well!

The twirling pic is definitely my favorite, and nude and white in the summer just feel so right.

Chic on the Cheap

I love the first outfit, especially the nude skirt. So sweet! And the picture of you twirling is fantastic.

That vintage butterfly purse is an amazing garage sale find!!
