TrimmingsAndLaceAndCrochet

A big hello to you all!! I hope everybody's having a great weekend :) and I assume that we all have done something very special for our mom's today since its Mother's Day.
All through my childhood and till date I have seen my grandmother craft some beautiful pieces using crochet be that various sorts of garments for me (and my play dolls) to table-cloths and napkins. Crochet is a fine art of creating fabric from yarn using a crochet hook and trust you me that it takes years to master it. Well my grandmother has certainly done so and can any day give the marketers a run for their money :):)
So, yesterday when I came across this show on TV that stated that crochet is a big trend this spring-summer, I jumped on to do a post on it...and some where I thought I'll pay a tribute to this beautiful art and to my lovely grandmother. Lots of love!!

Coming to how I wore crochet..well it was done in a very sober way..cause I wanted to let the crochet top do the talking :)























I added colour to the outfit by wearing these sea green ballerina's (you can see how I wore this colour here) and a cocktail ring plus earings of the similar shade.

I wore a lace corset underneath and carried a tote bag. The bag's got beautiful trimmings in pink and is neatly panelled :)



Wearing:
Crochet top from Next
Tote Bag Victoria's Secret (gift :) )
Ballerina flats H and M Dubai
Earings Claire's Dubai
Bracelets Aldo Dubai
Cocktail ring Thrifted (Delhi)

I leave you all with how crochet is available in various forms these days across a few stores namely Forever 21, Zara and Vero Moda.



You can see the same here, here and here. Happy Shopping :)

Thanks for stopping by...

    Іt's pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web will be much more useful than ever before.
