How to Style Leather and Lace
Lace Blouse and Leather Pants
In fashion, combining opposites is one of our favorite styling rituals – hard and soft, masculine and feminine, tight and loose. I love feminine lace tops – especially ones from Alice McCall with gorgeous billowy sleeves. Whenever I have a loose top, I always pair it with a tight bottom. The leather balances out the femininity of the lace and gives the outfit a bit of an edge. You can wear this look to a dinner, a party or even to work (maybe wear a cami underneath though so your bra isn’t showing ; ) )

Feminine Lace Blouse and Leather Skirt
Another concept that is similar to the previous is pairing a feminine lace blouse with a leather skirt. If the skirt is pleated, flared or an A-line skirt, then it adds to the femininity of the entire outfit. Who says leather has to always be hard and tough?

Bodysuits and camisoles are a great way to style leather and lace. There are many variations of bodysuits and camisoles out there nowadays and pairing it with tight leather pants is oh-so-super-chic! If you err on the conservative side, just throw on a blazer, or pair the lace bodysuit with jeans then throw a leather jacket over the bodysuit! Thistle and Spire, a lingerie brand based in NYC, creates some of the most gorgeous lace and mesh bodysuits. I would totally wear these out!

Finally, for those of you who are sexy little kittens, try this lace corset and leather pencil skirt combo. If it’s too revealing for you, simply throw a cardigan or cropped blazer over it. This look is feminine yet super sexy! This is the perfect sultry look for a Valentines date or a night out with the girls.
