ALL IN THE DETAILS: Living for Lace

When Mother Nature finally makes the executive decision to call it spring, it’s pretty hard to contain your excitement. There’s just this indescribable feeling of happiness when you can say “See you later” to each of your bulky, marshmallow-like winter coats. But when a day or two of summer weather slips into the mix? Well, let’s just say that you could smell the excitement in the air as you walk through campus.

On this particular day, it was near 90 degrees, so it was time for this Fashionista to break out her summer wardrobe. The best part of this outfit is how simple and effortless it is to put together. This Fashionista decided to opt for a solid tank top with a bright pop of turquoise to celebrate the weather. With this, she also added a pair of gray and black acid wash shorts. The duo-toned material helps add some much-needed texture into an outfit that is otherwise plain and basic.

To tie the texture from the shorts in with the rest of her outfit, she opted to show off a black lace bralette. Bralettes are a go-to for any summer look. Not only do they tend to have intricate lace patterns that add flair to any outfit, but they are also extremely comfortable. In the case of this Fashionista’s outfit, the black lace helped the black in her shorts stand out. It also adds that little something that basic tank tops seem to yearn for. To finish off this comfortable look, she framed her outfit nicely with her trusty black Converse, but any sneaker would perfect this look.

The next time you’re surprised with a day filled with summer weather and vibes, try reaching for a bralette, something with a pop of color, and all things lace. None of the above can ever steer you in the wrong direction.
