Totally addicted to Lace

We can't help but get into spring/summer mode now that we've had a few days of sunshine. 

One of the key lessons we learnt from last season's catwalks was that lace is hot property, and it's no longer a material reserved for oaps and curtains. 

A fair few celebs have also emerged onto the red carpets and vip clubs in lace too, so we know it's a hot trend. 

Here are some of our favourite pieces:

1. Topshop; £55… 2. Dorothy Perkins; £16… 3. Asos; £10…4. French Connection; £45…5. Rare; £27…6. Insideout; £185…7. Valentino; £370…8. Topshop; £20

Elle McPherson on the school run

This isn't the first time we've seen Elle MacPherson put the other mums to shame on the school run. This time, she was seen sporting Christian Louboutin Lucife pumps, and a gorgeous Roberto Cavalli Diva tote. If you want to replicate the look too but don't have Elle's bank account, or bravery as far as the heels are concerned, take a look at what we managed to find: 

Dorothy Perkins roll neck jumper; £10…Dorothy Perkins leggings; £14…House of Fraser Linea tote; £55.20…Karen Millen studded courts; £200…Vivienne Westwood VW683 Black Smoke sunglasses; £190

If you want to do the school run or go somewhere equally casual and don't want to go in dangerously spiky heels, you can get cheaper and more comfortable ones from Karen Millen for £200; they feature the stud element which the Louboutins have, but the thicker heel makes them a much safer and more comfortable option.
