Lace : The Before And After Story
Lace and I go way back. Really way back.
This was evident over the weekend when the daughters came to stay and we opened my old suitcase of "keepers".

Lace and I go way back. Really way back.
This was evident over the weekend when the daughters came to stay and we opened my old suitcase of “keepers”. My fashion of before became their story for the future. For one who loves a throw out and spring-clean it is clear to me I don’t always follow my own advise. I have much in the vein of “vintage” – yes, it would be fair to call these items vintage – keepsakes.
Dresses, jackets, coats, handbags and shoes I could not part with.
They really were worth keeping. The girls went home with much more than their arrival carry-on. The styles are still as relevant today, which only enforces my intuition of buying classic and investment pieces. The quality has remained and the styles, many of them 20+ years old, look absolutely perfect for today.
What they loved and what I have, is a real penchant for lace.
My suitcase revealed lace tights, still intact, (I am keeping those) and lace dresses. I am a huge fan of these. Sadly those kept don’t quite fit in the same way they once did so they now belong to my girls. Another “wanted” item for my wardrobe this season came to the forefront of my mind....
