stylish and elegant lace top please (cream or black!)

[smother]

I've seen a couple of people wearing gorgeous long-sleeved creamy lace-tops and I really really want one!!! They had camisoles underneath and then bare arms under the lace.... Cream looked beautiful, black would also be nice. I think it's the kind of look that can look stylish or naff.... I'd like advice on wear to buy a top that falls into the latter category please!

(I guess this trend was inspired by Kate M's wedding dress but I've always been a big fan of lace!)

I ahve almost exactly same as this from H and M in black, slightly more boxy cut I wear it ALLL the time. Love it

[cybbo]

long sleeved here

[cybbo]

also you said 'latter' category...which was naff. Thinking you meant former

this is very beautiful in real life not a great picture but very elegant. They do black too I think.

[Pagwatch]

It is a terrible, terrible set of pictures. You will have to trust me.

[smother]

can't believe I said I wanted a naff one .... thanks very very much, these are all looking along the right lines. laredoute one is particularly tempting as so cheap!

I have this which is v.good quality, not easily snaggable .. comes in white and navy too I think ...

Little bargain one here at New Look. Only in size 14 upwards though. Bought a similar one for DD a few weeks ago - none for me in store then!

It may be a little thick lacewise, but I bought the most beautiful cream lace top from Massimo Dutti yesterday, I can't find a pic of it on their website tho.

It's got bracelet length sleeves and a cream camisole underneath and is simply gorgeous! It's only just come into stores, so it's worth checking out :)

I second LTEC on the Reiss Minna lace top - I have two - LOVE THEM - and have washed well on wool cycle

[WhatsWrongWithYou]

Is that one a bit straight-up-and-down? It's a gorgeous top, and I know that shape suits some, but it bulks me out as I have boobs and hips.

[cybbo]

Clingy lace is baaaad

[FriedaLivery]

[FriedaLivery]

I too bought the cream Massimo Dutti one yesterday in Barcelona on our honeymoon and wore it out last night to dinner. I felt great in it and it has a really flattering neckline with a lovely length sleeve. Sadly am now home but still have my gorgeous top!
