Posing in Lace (plus play our Guessing Game to WIN)

| Thursday February 17, 2011

Once upon a time, lace was frilly, flouncy and feminine - something we associated with little girls going to their First Communion or royal courtiers in fairytale books. In recent years, however, it's no less feminine but with a decidedly sassy edge.

Of course, it was only a matter of time before we did a Pose Off in lace.

Alexandra works this seemingly demure high-necked and long-sleeved top - anything but frumpy, especially paired with her bold red lip.

Posing Wall newbie and fresh addition to the ChickAdvisor team, Mel breaks out these gorg lace stockings plus studded belt and bold gold necklace to give her simple LBD a ton of personality.

Lauren pairs her lacy top with menswear-inspired coordinates, bumping up the girlie factor with a cutie-pie butterfly necklace.

And there you have it: a style once relegated to trim on granny's pillowcases has been reinvented to its edgy polar opposite.

Speaking of opposites, which of our posers was a tomboy growing up? Someone's correct guess will win them a beauty prize!
