Ageless Style: Midnight Lace



Welcome to  the Ageless Style link-up, which happens every third Thursday or the month.  This months prompt is "scrumptious fabrics"  created by Leslie of  Once Upon A Time & Happily Ever After. Next month, on Thursday, Feb. 16th we will be showcasing our version and sentiments of what it means to be kind, as February is Kindness month.  

I love a lot of scrumptious fabrics from velvet, tulle, shimmery and shiny fabrics, to lace.  I stumbled upon this gorgeous midnight black top right before Christmas and I was instantly drawn to the lacey fabric.  I absolutely fell in love with two of the features in this top, the neckline that's not all the way square but has a fairly blunt neckline.  The second and my favorite is the lacey back.  It's so sexy without ever actually revealing anything.  Don't you just love how some clothing has a sense of mystery and sexiness without actually revealing anything at all.  Now, when I wear this top to work, I wear a black cami underneath but other than work I just sport my black bra underneath and feel completely confident with that decision.  I decided to style this top for three different occasions including date night, office and casual street style.  


Date Night:  Talk about a full outfit of scrumptious fabric.  This shimmery, pleated skirt elevates any outfit all on its own, don't you agree?


Office Style:  Black on black on black is just classic.   Adding gold jewelry is the perfect way to accessories and keep it classic.


Casual Style:  This is exactly why I still keep my skinny jeans around.  They create a beautiful, curvy silhouette  and I am here for celebrating and accepting my curves.  




Now it's time to link-up your own posts and check out all the other ladies of Ageless Style.

  5. Gosh, Bo. That lace top is fabulous. Heck, you could even throw a blazer over it for work and no one would realize it's lace, I bet.

  7. I think we all want this top in our closets!! And I want to look just like you in it. Wow. Just wow. Love the black lace with the champagne skirt. So feminine. The monochromatic black outfit is so flattering. Shows off your beautiful figure. But so does the third outfit. Sumptuous-ness from head to toe x3!!

  10. One top different ways to style it. Fashion is all about knowing your way around it and you did just well. The look with the pleated skirt is my fav.

  11. Bo, this top is beyond amazing! That back cut out...ooh la la!! And, then with the addition of a cami, totally school appropriate! I also love how you've styled it three different ways! I need to remember to try that in blog posts instead of using just one! Perfection, Bo!

  12. Oh wow what a great job you did styling this lace top! I have a lace blouse and I wore it with a pleated skirt similar to this one, to Fashion Week! You look great in all three looks.

  13. I love all of these different looks, but I think the lace paired with the black pants is my favorite. Something I would most definitely wear for a night on the town!
