Orange & Lace Are Everywhere!!

JustJazzmom · ‎03-09-2010

Wandered through the Misses departments today of Macy's & JCPenney. I must say that various lace items are all over the place from lace covered tops in various colors and the top has a lining on the torso or its lace incorporated somewhere on the clothing.

There are varying shades of orange, tangerine or orange red to wear as either solid colors or print patterns.

The cowl neck top in the non floral pattern (the orange red repeat pattern) I purchased and it works well with the peplum coral jacket (former TSV) and the red crepe jacket that has the Linea gold signature buttons and it has a matching skirt.

JJM: love the top you chose!

No orange, tangerine, tomato or coral items for me. Not for my coloring. I did pick up the following lace items here: J262105 in white, which is really ivory, and J240866 in ivory on LTS. I will probably add the upcoming Linea WK cardi with lace sleeves in black. I also have a JR all over black lace cardi from several years ago. That should be enough lace for me!

Thanks queendiva!! I was surprised at seeing lime green as well as bright green in the stores too. I saw the turquoise lace long sleeved top on a hanger and Macy's is calling the color Bubble (not aqua or turquoise)!

It looked very nice and I almost bought it.The lace was soft not scratchy to my fingers.

I can't wait for warmer weather now that spring is here.

I love lace, but not cheap looking lace. A lot of this lace being shown everywhere is stretch polyester lace. POLYESTER? Eeeeewww..gross.

Polyester lace does not hold up very well. It tends to pill up and collect lint when washed with other items. It doesn't hold up very well and the garment looks old and beat before it's time.

I just purchased a top at Macy's that was 100% cotton. It had cotton lace on it as well. I wore it last week and received many compliments. It was a very light pink color.

I already have coral, orange and red in my wardrobe. They are fun warm weather colors.

I didn't buy it and didn't even look at the fabric content or washing instructions-- just saying what I saw out there while meandering around the mall. The top looked good on the hanger (1st step in a selection process).

I think this is the third spring/summer season that lace has been popular. I'm glad, because l have several lace tops from 1 and 2 years ago, so I'll be able to wear them again and still look fashionable!

I purchased a knit jacket that was an OTO on IML. It is a soft orange. I have worn it once this spring with jeans and received compliments (probably because of the color and everyone is sick of winter!).

I'm okay with some shades of orange ... and some lace. Frilly / prissy lace looks strange on me. I like freeform knitted or crocheted lace.

Got a photo of it? Curious how it looks.
