Trend: Lace for fall

Lace is one of the most romantic and seductive trends for the season. I think Valentino and Stella McCartney did the most exquisite job with lace this season. The lace masks at Valentino are personal favorites of mine. I secretly want to dress up like this every single day. Black lace in particular makes such a beautiful statement. I've chosen a few pieces that would be positively dashing for the holidays.

This is the prettiest lace blouse.

Oxfords with a feminine twist.

Isn't this the perfect holiday dress?

Can't wait for Rodarte for Target-- stylish on a budget.

These booties are the ultimate in elegance.

Stella McCartney's Elegant Platforms

If you, like me, thought you could never find an elegant platform shoe, these are it!  These are incredibly chic and delicate, with my favorite colors pink and black satin, beautiful high heels, and great silhouette. Yet these gorgeous pointy toe stilettos hide a subtle platform that makes them very modern. Either of these would be my quintessential spring shoe with a black sheath. They are available at Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman.
