Crochet and lace fabrics are extremely “in” this summer, and for good reason! Depending on how you use them, they can look super cute or downright sexy. So play around with the following fun ways to use these hot fabrics this season.
Sassy headbands
Lace headbands and crocheted headwraps are lovely ways to add a sweet touch to your favourite summer outfit. Forever 21’s knit lace headwrap is unbelievably afforable and comes in six colours, so you can put together the exact look you’re going for.
Nifty shoes
Would you believe that even your footwear can come in these unique fabrics? It’s true! Dress up your simple outfit with a cute pair of crocheted flats or lace heels. Look for a pair that is lined on the inside to avoid chafing and ensure protection of your feet. Not sure where to look for such pretty footwear? Consider something along the lines of this attractive pair of crocheted flats from Journeys.
Sexy bathing suits
With summer on its way in, it is soon going to be warm enough to spend time at your nearest beach or outdoor pool. Swimwear is definitely the sexiest way to incorporate lace and crochet fabrics this summer. A crocheted bikini adds an appealing, old-fashioned quality to your typical beach look, while a lace cut-out contributes a sexy allure to an otherwise average one-piece. The swimsuit doesn’t have to be entirely crochet and lace to be a hot number. Even just a small accent can make you feel like a total knockout the next time you hit the beach or lounge by the pool.
Flirty skirts
Flowing summer skirts made of lace and crocheted fabric are a pretty and sophisticated style this summer. A cut that comes just above the knee can be worn casually with a cute pair of flats or dressed up with some sexy stilettos or bold pumps.
Cute hats
With Canadian weather being so unpredictable, a crocheted beanie hat is a great accessory on a cool or rainy day. Look for hats with attractive flowers, beads and sequins sewn on for added flair. Bright colours and bold patterns also add a fun spark of personality.
Classy dresses
There are so many cute styles of lace and crochet dresses to choose from this summer. For the perfect dress that you are sure to get plenty of use out of, opt for a classic cut. Because the fabrics themselves have a revealing quality, look for a style that isn’t too short or overly low cut. This will ensure you can wear it anywhere and feel simultaneously classy and sexy every time you slip it on. White is particularly popular this summer, so don’t shy away from donning a striking white ensemble.
