sheer thing

$130, nordstrom

I was apprehensive about spring's sheer trend until I came across this Topshop lace skirt, which manages to be a whole lot of things at once: subtly sexy, very feminine, slightly retro (thanks to its A-line silhouette), super elegant (with tinges of Chanel and Dolce & Gabbana), thoroughly wearable, and perfectly on trend.
