OBSESSION DU JOUR: Black Lace and Blue

Lace has become one of Fall's hottest trends. The lace trend appeared in Prada's Fall '08 collection and since then its popularity rose. Lace is appearing everywhere; fashion runways, red carpet events, and the streets of Paris and New York. It has become a huge fashion statement. Fashion designers are reinventing the look of lace by using it with edgier silhouettes and colors. In Louis Vuitton's Fall 2009 collection, Marc Jacob the creative director, designed a blue cocktail dress with black lace. I think the color and fabric combination is brilliant, it creates a feminine but tough look. Also, Opening Ceremony designed a dress that is quite similar to Louis Vuitton's blue cocktail dress, the Latern Dress. This dress is so unique, it is described as flirty yet undeniably sophisticated. I love the cut out blue sweetheart top with  fitted black lace top.
