So many trends and just one body! One of the top trends for Spring / Summer 2016, lace up is enjoying a moment and fashion/style bloggers and celebrities are all over this trend. From bodysuits to crop tops, shoes and dresses too, lace up offers just the right amount of sexy. Unlike certain trends, they are easy to pull off and versatile. Pair your lace up top with jeans, skirts, slacks, the styling possibilities are endless.
Bodysuits are fast becoming a girls best friend. Given a nod of approval as a closet staple, bodysuits make for a clean and very polished tucked in appearance and are giving camisoles and basic tees a run for their money. Wear your bodysuit as a weekend uniform or underneath a killer blazer for work. Let a sexy lace bodysuit be a part of your night time getup and oh the heads you will turn!
I took the plunge (literally) in this body hugging lace up bodysuit paired with a summer staple aka a pair of white jeans. I am always on the hunt for great white pants. They're such a perfect staple to have in the closet and I adore them. And heck everyone is breaking them out in full force. Are you?Black skinny sky high stilettos matched the sexy vibe oozed by the top and a peach bag added a pop of color.
This 'Casual Perfection' is appropriate for movie and date nights. My daughter is leaving for North Carolina tomorrow for the 50 year anniversary of 'The Freedom Summer'. Ever heard of it? So we had a movie night yesterday to get some quality time in before she leaves. You guessed it. We saw "Purge: Election Year". Not a direct reflection but had me thinking of what's going on in politics here in the US this 'election year'. Grasping, eerie, hair raising, graphic and even cool are some ways I'd describe it. Then there's that intersection of violence, comedy and tragedy. Just like Shakespeare's tragedies. Did you see it yet? The previous installments?
Hi Darlings!
Glad you made it back? What are weekend plans. It's still grad party season. Take the plunge, rock that lace up top to the next party! Or barbecue. Have fun and a very happy birthday America!

Hot, sexy, fabulous Mama. You are so beautiful Idu dear and I truly believe you can do any outfit justice. Slay babe slay.
ReplyDeleteYou look so perfect my dear!!! I love your cute bag and heels <3 Happy weekend :-)
ReplyDeleteLooking hot as usual, Idu! Girl, I need to know what you're eating:) And I've seen both The Purge movies, so I'm quite excited to see this third installment.
ReplyDeleteI love the lace up trend, and you wear it so effortless! At the moment I am not yet comfortable in a lace up body like that, so I will stay with lace up shoes this season.

You are right the blogsphere is going wild over lace up anything but especially bodysuits and yours is super cute. Can you also start listing what makeup you are wearing in each post as well? I really like a lot of your makeup shades but do not know where you get them from. I'm loving the purple lipstick you are wearing in this post so I would love the brand and shade info.

That lace up bodysuit is smoking hot and I do like how you paired it with white jeans...you can't go wrong with black and white right?...and with heels! Those sandals with heels are gorgeous!!!!!!!! This casual outfit has something timeless about it....such a winning look for Summer. You really do look divine!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't see the Purge movies, but I think the concept is fascinating. It is really scary how much power any goverment has over people. I think the problems of corruption and greedy politicians is present is almost every country and West is certainly not free of it nor is it the promised land it is supposed to be. I mean I love living in Europe but the governments here....it is a nightmare sometimes.
I wish your daughter a lovely time on her trip!

Idu, can I say WOW, you rock this lace up body suit... you look amazing and I love how you paired it with the white jeans... your shoes as always are perfect, I love heels even though I can no longer wear them xox
ReplyDeleteI hope you are enjoying your summer break and getting out to enjoy the lovely weather... I know it is or has been quite hot down where you live... we have had some decently warmer weather here.
Happy fourth of July... we celebrated Canada day on Friday July 1st, it was a beautiful day xox
Hahahaha. ..rotfl omg !! Idu . Your first sentence really got me cracking . Indeed so many trends and style but just one body . I have put together almost 10 of my next outfits for the blog but I wish I could wear them all at once just before summer ends in 2 months. I am also leaning towards the bodysuit trend because like you said it gives a well polished look. The Cris cross lace top is so sexy yet classy and your shoes are so hot. You look amazing . Wishing your daughter a lovely trip to NC . Kisses dear !!.

Oh the Purge series, they feel like a guilty pleasure to me. The idea behind them fascinates me enough to forgive how poorly they are made. I keep wanting to fix things as I watch it, sink deeper into the psyche of it and away from the splatter and camp. It reminds me a bit of The Running Man which i can watch again and again. As for the outfit, you look amazing in that bodysuit, I was dying to see the rest of it, especially from the back ;) Your hair is looking so gorgeous, those shoes are unique and cool and your breasts are displayed so wonderfully. That first close up of them it was all over for me and so incredibly!! Thoughts of untying and luscious softness accompanied my fantastic finish!! Hope your weekend is going great and thanks so much for the nice words on my blog. Kisses

ReplyDeleteHello beautiful dear Idu! You really rock the lace up trend! And yes, bodysuits are not only trendy but also very comfortable to wear! I bought a few of such pieces in the last months and love them all. I love also your outfit. White denims are definitely wardrobe staples but I have to admit although I own a few of such denims I still wear them much too seldom. Hopefully you had the wonderful and amazing weekend you planned!

My beautiful Idu, I've been meaning to visit you for so long but I've been so messed up with the new BHLM website that I'd been trying to change. It literally took me a month besides the work that I'd been doing the last month. But I've not been missing your amazing looks on Instagram and as usual you Rock any looks! However I have a request, why don't you sometimes make makeup looks and your favourite lipstick etc for us all? I know how you rock your purple lipstick and eyeshadow to the point everytime I see a purple hue of makeup items, I remember you! <3

I love a lace up top. I haven't found my own love just yet, every time I do my size always sells out. Grrr. Maybe I should look into the bodysuit kind?! Hope you had a lovely 4th of July. Your election campaign sure is one hot mess! (Looking at it from my side of the world that is!)

So beautiful as always Idu! I don't own any bodysuits; perhaps it's a mental thing, but they just seem too confining...I do really love the lace up detail on yours though; super sexy! I haven't seen the last Purge yet. Oddly enough, I've only seen the second one. Guess I had better catch up!
