We all know that Forever 21 is usually hit or miss but there are rare occasions that you find a gem. This eyelash lace top is definitely one of them. Thanks to Jess for posting it on IG and providing measurements for me, I was able to find it while in the Midwest. It was perfect timing because my Mom was teaching me how to sew. She showed me how to take in the sides of this very boxy and wide top. I took it in by 1-1.5″ on both sides. I think it looks better when worn casually but I wanted to try tucking it in and dressing it up with a pencil skirt. It’s still a bit wide even after alterations but I think I’ll just keep it this way for now.

I have worn it so many times and every time I wear it, I get so many compliments.  I think I need a lace/crochet intervention. The collection of lace items I have is growing rapidly in my closet. It’s definitely time for a blog sale again soon. Between my love for stripes, polka dots, lace/crochet…my closet is in need of an overhaul.

Here are some pictures from several weeks ago when we celebrated our anniversary I forgot to share. We ate at an Italian restaurant in Newport Coast…he clearly loves Italian food.

  1. I would wear it with white skinny jeans (pink lace just begs for white, don’t you think?) or with a leather skirt later in the year to create a texture/material contrast. You really can’t go wrong with a white pencil skirt though (and that YSL bag is flawless here too).

  7. You’ve gotten many compliments about your look? Well, get ready for [a lot] more compliments, Annie because you look as beautiful as ever. These are very charming and angelic colors shown in this outfit. While the lace top is gorgeous, the necklace is equally gorgeous. And of course, your angelic hair, face, and smile all are classic Annie allure. Just beautiful!

  9. What classy outfit with our favorite top! Blush tones really suit you. πŸ™‚ I really wish I learned how to sew so I could wear mine tucked in too.

    Your anniversary dinner and view look amazing! You and your hubby seem like two peas in a pod. hehe So glad you shared it with us here since we got a little glimpse of it on IG a few weeks ago.

    Have a great weekend.

  11. I saw this on Twitter and couldn’t wait until you posted it on your blog. This is one of my favorite looks so far. I would have passed on that blouse but it looks great with the skirt and on you. Definitely a great choice.

  15. Nice outfit. I love the way you styled it. I would love to see this top pairs with a pair of jeans, so that’s how I would probably wear it. Cute blog!

  17. I think the width on the top is just perfect! Or, at the very least, you did a great job of photographing it, haha.
    I love how classic and down-right girly this look is. It’s girly glam. Love it.
    And I’m definitely up for a blog sale!

  19. Beautiful top. I can’t believe it came from F21! I totally couldn’t wear it b/c I’d be afraid my 2 year old would rip it. But if I had it, I’d wear it on the weekends with some jeans :).
