When I saw these lace shorts peeking out from another pair of shorts last week at American Apparel, I knew they had to be mine. I feel like there is something so risqué about them, yet they are just a sheer layer of lace to spruce up any pair of old shorts. I love how they just peek out to say hello. With the peek-a-boo lace, I chose to pair denim cutoff shorts, a long blazer and nude heels. What do you think of my pairing?
Lace undershorts: American Apparel
Denim cutoffs: True Religion (similar)
Blazer: Similar
Shoes: Christian Louboutin Rolando
Bag: Louis Vuitton (pochette used as clutch)
Jewelry: Bracelet- Forever 21 (similar); Earrings- Vintage (my grandmother's!!!; similar here & here)
AND PLEASE Don't forget to follow on Facebook (where I post sneak peeks of my DIY projects), on BlogLovin' and on LookBook!
And for those who use Pinterest, please feel free to PIN below!!! :)




I love the lace peeking through, so cute! Those shoes are my faves and I totally want a pair for myself. Hope you had a great weekend Allison! :)

Thank you! The shorts are two separate pieces. The lace ones are sheer lace that is almost like underwear that is purchased just to be worn under a pair of regular shorts. I hope that makes sense. :)
Deletepretty! love the lace trims of the shorts!
