Trend Tuesday!!! Crochet and Lace...The Iconic Look for Spring 2011

CROCHET
Crochet has made a comeback this season.  But if you're thinking your grandmother's crochet hats and blankets then think again!  Designers such as Dior and Chanel introduced great crochet pieces to the fashion world.  Some skirts, shirts and dresses all made appearances on runways this season.  You may also think crochet as a flashback to the 1970's feeding off that hippie era.  Welcome to the return of the 70's with bell bottoms and all.  The crochet trend has been remastered by Roaman's helping you incorporate it into your own personal style. 

There are a couple fun ways to wear crochet:
1.  Dare to bare- Nothing is greater than a crochet swimwear cover-up.  Using crochet as an overlay is a great way to look sexy while still being covered up in your bathing suit no matter what size you are.  Roaman's has great plus size cover-ups with crochet.

Celebrities are also jumping on the crochet trend.  
From Liv Tyler to Kate Bosworth to even Miley Cyrus have been seen wearing crochet and lace.


Just remember to mix with different fabrics to make it your own and wearable for any occasion.


LACE
Lace can seem like it has a personality disorder sometimes.  Sometimes sweet, sometimes sultry, yet at others times demure.  But that's what makes lace such an alluring romantic fabric and so trendy for this spring.  Roaman's has great plus size items with lace trim in the latest trends just for you.
