The one thing that I dread as much as weighing myself on a Monday morning is, repeating outfits {Long time back, a non-friend very politely pointed out,"did you, like not wear that same thing for last Saturday dinner too!"}. But, we all been there,and done that. Sometimes with great success and others times not so.
Well for reasons such as this, I have decided to start my 'Style It Thrice' segment.
So what is ‘Style It Thrice’? It is my 3 best styling suggestions for a particular item or trend, that is either based on body type, or social occasion, or colour harmony, and so on. In short, it's a style guide for everyday girls like you and me.
For my first ‘Style It Thrice’, I have chosen a Cream lace top by Dorothy Perkins. For starters, everyone has a white/cream top{or tunic}. It is much needed in the summers and can easily be used in the other seasons too. Also, lace is the IT fabric of the season. From dress to shoes lace is having a major moment. But, the biggest problem with lace is, if not styled correctly it can easily make you appear tad bit too old. To avoid such disasters, I am going to show you a few ways you can add modern, on-trend touch to your classy cream/ white lace top.
Date Night Look: Add a hint of sexiness to your ensemble by pairing your lace top with a neon {hot pink and mustard} color block skirt, metallic clutch and floral peep toes. Complete the look with a statement necklace and smokey eye makeup and you won’t have to worry about your date looking at anyone else but you.

Casual Friday Look: This spring is all about pastel and colored denim. Mix your lace top with a pastel {mint green} coloured denim and you are all set to rock summer’s coolest two trends.Thrown on a floral scarf, cute ballet flats and you can zip right out of a meeting and catch up the latest Friday release with the girls. Incase your office does not do Casual Friday; this outfit can easily be worn for one of your Saturday shopping trips.

Sunday Brunch Look: Combine your pretty lace top with trendy black shorts, tangerine shoulder bag and wedges. If the weather permits spice up the look with a {tangerine} coloured blazer and your all set for your Sunday outting.

Very easily you too can mix and match you feminine lace top with spring summer 2012's colour trends.{You can also check out my other post on Neon, Pastel and Tangerine colour trends}
SInce this top is in sheer lace fabric, I thought I would be a perfect one to submit for InFB Remix:Sheer.

Till then, tra-la,
