ARACHNE

I don't: like spiders. I do: love the look of a pretty spider web, so I wanted to play with this in my first official spring look for today by changing up the regular silhouette of a dress. I decided to go with this web-like sheer dress, over a nude slip, over pants, and as complicated as it sounds, I think it ended up looking pretty cool. 

The first time I laid eyes on this Vienna For Love & Lemons dress was when I knew it was exactly what I wanted to do with it: add something incredibly voluminous underneath the skirt portion. (Which, sidenote, I have to express my deep interest in the FLL brand, I think some of the cuts and silhouettes are super innovative and chic). That's why, it's even more fun to layer what they give you over other pieces of clothing, it completely changes the look of the body in the best way. I started with these H&M denim bell-bottom jeans, and slipped a nude slip over it. Next came the sheer dress... (the material is buoyant enough to stretch right over a thicker pant which was really nice). I didn't want to take away from the drama, so I simply added this Topshop leather jacket on my shoulders and a nice purple-griege lip (Trap by Colourpop) to add a little personality and finish up the look. I'm super impressed with the new silhouette created, and I really think it brings the FLL dress to the next level. 

After all, wouldn't it be boring to wear a dress exactly how it's meant to be worn?

the Lala shop is OFFICIALLY OPEN (yyyyeees, this is the project we've been working on for months, and I'm so excited to have brainstormed/worked on all the designs... words cannot express how cool it is to have a brainstorm thought written down in a notebook turn into a real product)

Check out our Lala dream in tangible form, and here's to products that embody the style, substance and spirit of the Lala.
