I'm a sucker for a pretty trend. If lace, silk, chiffon, bows, and ruffles are involved, it's very likely going straight into my cart. My latest obsession is by no means a new invention, but thanks to a whole host of cool celebs and well-dressed women on Instagram backing it, it's having a moment in the fashion spotlight. I, for one, couldn't be happier. The style in question is a lace-trimmed slip skirt. Pretty, romantic, and chic—it is the perfect piece to wear right now as we settle into fall. Whether you opt for a lace-trimmed silky midi skirt in an autumnal hue, such as Dôen's Elowen Lace-Trimmed Silk-Charmeuse Midi Skirt, or a chic ivory or black miniskirt, such as J.Crew's Gwen Lace-Trim Slip Skirt in Textured Satin, it's going to give your outfit an elevated, eye-catching, and alluring touch.
The key to pulling off a pretty trend like this without it coming off as too cutesy or saccharine is to offset it with something contrasting, such as a blazer, oversize button-down, or—my personal favorite—a sumptuously soft, relaxed sweater. The two contrasting elegant textures make for one extremely chic fall outfit. Finish the look with kitten heels or leather knee-high boots once the weather starts cool.
I rounded up my favorite lace-trimmed slip skirts on the market right now that will unquestionably make your fall wardrobe chicer as well as plenty of outfits featuring the trend to get you inspired.
