Alexander Wang totally ignited this trend back in Spring 2010, and since then, it has totally taken off with countless celebrities photographed in their lace shorts.

What I love about these shorts is how comfortable they are...I am wearing mine as I blog right now! I feel there are two ways to wear the shorts: dressy or casual. For a dressy look, I really like Kristin Cavallari's look with a silky, black tank... I would probably also add a blazer and wear it with some high heels for a night out. You want the blazer length to be just above the short length, like Emma Watson did, any longer and it won't look like you're wearing any pants! For a more casual approach, I love what Ashley Greene did: I love mixing lace and army green. The lace shorts would also look great with a Lauren Moshi and/or Wildfox top, and a jean jacket...swap out your heels for combat/motorcycle boots.

I know, our summer is short lived...but you can totally wear these for fall/winter by adding some black opaque tights, even under the white shorts... it still looks good! Keep the tights basic, no patterns, otherwise it may look too costumey. I am picturing my lace shorts with boots, tights, and an oversized sweater for fall! Check out our Free People lace shorts next time you're in!
Who needs InStyle, Vogue and all the other fashion magazines when you have the "Yu" girls. Great tips!!! Everyone knows you can't really wear what you see on the runway and these tips help to make trends wearable. Thanks!!!
