How to Wear A Lace Top?

When fancy and elegant elements on women's clothes are mentioned, what come to your mind? Embroidery, tulle and lace are all frequently mentioned answers. Among them, lace is widely used as decoration on necklines, cuffs, etc, showcasing the tenderness of ladies.

A lace top is quite commonly seen in ladies’wardrobes. But there is a chance that many people buy lace tops just to follow the trend or on a whim. In fact, some ladies have never thought about how to match these lace tops. But don't worry, our blog today is prepared for you to let you know how to choose a suitable lace top and how to style it.

How to Wear A Sheer Lace Top?

Lace can be used not only as a decorative detail of clothing, but also as the main body of a top. Airy and soft lace can fully show the charm of women, but many ladies are troubled by this. After all, lace is transparent. If a top is made of lace as the main fabric, then it is a sheer top. So how should a sheer lace top be worn to be both decent and fashionable?

Obviously, layering is unavoidable.You can choose to wear other clothes under the sheer lace top, or you can also choose to wear something over it. First, you can wear a tube top or a camisole under a sheer lace top. This is a very beautiful and appropriate way to dress a sheer lace top, and you can even attend a dinner party in this outfit. Lace will add a touch of elegance to a camisole or tube top. In terms of color, it is better to choose an inner layer that is similar in color to the lace top. Unless you are sure that you are an expert in color matching, don't try very bold combinations such as contrasting colors. Of course, you can also choose to wear another layer over the sheer lace top. However, please remember that the outerwear you choose should be sleeveless or short-sleeved. Otherwise, a long-sleeved outerwear will cover your lace top entirely. In this way, the meaning of wearing a transparent lace top will no longer exist. A denim vest is a good choice. Alternatively, you can just wear an ordinary cotton T-shirt with only half of the lace sleeves showing, which is also a chic way to dress up. In autumn, you can also wear a knitted vest outside the lace top.

Alternatively, you can also wear a sheer lace top over the bra.It is important to find the right underwear for a see-through dress. Options may include wearing fitted underwear such as a nude bra to maintain some decency. If a very completely sheer top seems too flashy for you, you can choose a lace top with some embroidery on the shoulders and chest to cover up. This kind of top can be more balanced and less revealing.

Accessories You Can Take with A Lace Top

Indeed, the lace top itself is very eye-catching. Therefore, we need other accessories to balance the highlight of this outfit. Because if the focus of the whole outfit is completely on the lace top, it will easily look a little vulgar. So what kind of bags, shoes, and hats can you wear with a lace top?

Many ladies believe that lace tops must be paired with high heels, because only high heels can match the elegance of lace tops. If you are going to wear a lace top to a high-end or formal occasion such as a dinner party, then a pair of high heels is probably a must. However,it is clear that lace tops are not only for formal and high-end occasions. You can certainly wear lace tops on casual occasions. For example, when you are on vacation in a lace camisole at a beach, a pair of sandals or even flip flops are a better choice than high heels.

Since the lace top is already very gorgeous, it is better to keep the jewelry selection understated. A simple pair of earrings or a delicate necklace will suffice.However, if your top is in solid color and is just decorated with lace, you can choose fancy accessories to make up for it. For example, you can pair a V-neck lace top with an exaggerated hoop necklace or a wide bracelet with a sense of design.

When it comes to the choices of a bag, there is probably nothing better than a delicate small clutch to match the exquisiteness and elegance of the lace top. Especially when attending a dinner party, a small black or white handbag will make you more charming. While large-capacity backpacks, shoulder bags, and cross body bags can easily look out of place.

In terms of the choices of hat, in autumn and winter, wool berets are a good choice. They are soft and warm. If the lace top is in a solid color, such as a black lace top, when paired with a burgundy wool beret, it will be added a retro and literary atmosphere. The rich burgundy color echoes the mystery of the black lace, and the overall shape is very elegant. In the summer, for vacation needs, you can choose a straw hat to match with the lace top. The straw hat can be decorated with colorful ribbons to make it more elegant and romantic.

Bottoms Go Well with A Lace Top

After choosing the top to wear for traveling, you have to think about the bottoms. Lace tops are not very tolerant of the style of matching bottoms, but whether it is pants or skirts, we still have many choices. So in this section, let us discuss, what bottoms can go well with a lace top.

For more formal or high-end occasions, the combination of a lace top and skirts is a good choice. You can consider the combination with suit skirts or silk skirts. The former one of these two skirts can fully show your capable temperament, while the other can create a noble and elegant temperament, allowing you to stand out from the crowd.

For casual occasions, you will have more choices. If your lace top is fancy, you can pair it with a simple solid-colored pair of jeans. This outfit is perfect for everyday wear. To create a more versatile look, you can pay more attention to your jeans, such as replacing the most frequently seen straight jeans with wide leg jeans or flared jeans, making your outfit look more creative. If your lace top is simple in style, you can pair it with a bohemian-style floral long skirt to create a pastoral or retro style. Or you can also choose a denim skirt, which is also quite versatile.

To create the sense of contrasting, you can also choose a leather skirt or a pair of leather pants. The cool and capable temperament of leather skirts or pants can complement the elegant temperament of lace tops, creating a unique and distinctive outfit together.

The Choices of Outerwear

What should you do if you want to wear a lace top in this season? Obviously, almost all lace tops are thin layers that cannot protect you from the cold, so an outerwear is a must. Even outerwear like the knitted vests we mentioned in the first section may not be thick enough. So how can we choose a suitable outwear to be both fashionable and warm?

When a knitted vest is not warm enough, we can consider wearing a sweater outside. Don't worry that the long-sleeved sweater will completely cover the lace top inside. You can choose a sweater with a larger neckline to reveal a delicate lace neckline.

When it is not too cold, you can wear a denim jacket or a leather jacket over the lace top to create a casual outfit. You can choose a classic blue denim jacket with a white lace top, and pair them with jeans or a short skirt, which is simple and beautiful. The tough and handsome leather jacket and the soft and elegant lace top form a strong contrast, creating a unique cool style. A black leather jacket is the most classic choice, and it can show unique charm when paired with a black or white lace top.

If it gets colder, you can also choose a longer and warmer outerwear such as a long trench coat or a wool coat. In terms of color, classic colors such as khaki, beige, and black are very versatile. When paired with a white or light-colored lace top, they can create an elegant temperament; while when paired with a dark-colored lace top, it will appear more calm.

For formal occasions, especially when you wear a suit skirt, a blazer is certainly a good choice. The capability of the blazer and the softness and femininity of the lace top complement each other, creating a fashionable and feminine office look.
