Looks really good with the lacey edge more defined. And so petty and fun styled with sneaks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-lace-skift-new-lining#post-1835725 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 01:30:09 +0000 Staysfit 1835725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great improvement to the skirt, especially since you will now wear it more frequently because it feels more comfortable. It looks great the way you have styled it here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-lace-skift-new-lining#post-1835720 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 01:26:48 +0000 Dianna 1835720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your skirt was beautiful before, but now it is even better, it looks more current.&nbsp; I like how you paired it with a sweater and sneakers for a more casual vibe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-lace-skift-new-lining#post-1835717 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 01:23:53 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1835717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the sneakers with a dress or skirt look – I've been doing that more too, especially on the weekend. Perfect for a trip to farmers market on a warm day, for example. I don't think I would have thought of doing it with a lace skirt, but it looks great.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-lace-skift-new-lining#post-1835686 Sat, 12 Aug 2017 21:53:29 +0000 harmonica 1835686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Laura G! Yes, the lining is shorter and I really like that, too. Yay for SYC and it's incredible what such alterations con do. I'm glad I didn't donate it because I find it hard to find pretty lace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-lace-skift-new-lining#post-1835682 Sat, 12 Aug 2017 21:30:40 +0000 Laura G 1835682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just love turning old things into new things! Looks like the new lining is a bit shorter too, so the edge of the lace shows now at the hem. Very pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-lace-skift-new-lining#post-1835675 Sat, 12 Aug 2017 21:03:18 +0000 harmonica 1835675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, <b>Dianna</b>! I used to think that lace was a too romantic style for me, but I've learned on YLF how to personalise it and downplay the romantic with pieces that are more casual or edgy. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-lace-skift-new-lining#post-1835662 Sat, 12 Aug 2017 20:16:22 +0000 Dianna 1835662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt was beautiful before (I love lace), but it looks way better now. I liked how you styled it with sneakers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-old-lace-skift-new-lining#post-1835656 Sat, 12 Aug 2017 19:28:24 +0000 harmonica 1835656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all,<br /> Yesterday I picked up my midnight blue lace skirt with a new lining. So happy about the alteration! The old lining was stiff and awkward and the skirt was almost orphaned. With the new lining in a dark shimmery grey it feels soft and very comfy. I can easily dress it up with a nice blouse/heels or sweater/sneakers. I paired it with a cropped knit sweater with raglan sleeve. It was chilly with light rain showers so I added a lightweight duster to keep dry.</p> <p>Lace skirt (MSGM)<br /> Cropped sweater<br /> Navy duster coat<br /> White sneakers (Ecco) </p>
