Fashion: Yes YOU Can...
…wear lace for night and day. Shelly Vella embraces the luxury
From a classic LBD to billowing blouses, the high street offers lace aplenty this season and in styles you can dress up or down. If you want to keep it simple, there are touches of lace detailing on accessories and subtle lace inserts on dresses and shirts nod to the trend. Alternatively, you can embrace a top-to-toe lace dress that boasts a modesty-concealing slip.
