Lace tops are one of my favorite top designs and today I want to showcase several ways to wear them to fit your life. I’ve written about lace tops previously – head over to see this one in spring, this one with a tweed blazer and this one about my Top 5 Tops I Love!

I own 5 lace tops – one in black, navy, lavender mauve, blush pink and white. They are from my go-to stores for petite-friendly tops: Bloomindale’s Aqua brand, Ann Taylor and LOFT. Two of them are lined and the other three I wear with my favorite camisole.
White on White
I think white on white is very chic looking and adding a blazer or jacket will complete this polished look. Add in a pop of color with a handbag or shoes.

Black Work Skirt
My black lace top is my go-to for pairing with skirts for work. I love it styled with gray, black and blue. Here is one of my favorites with a comfortable flare skirt from NIC+ZOE. Besides pairing this with black bow heels, I’ve worn pops of color with my Tieks ballet flats + Sheec no-show socks.
