Merry Christmas everyone!!!! For those of you that celebrate I hope you had a wonderful day with the people you love most close to you.
Lace was this weeks pick for a fashion trend but it has had a major impact on decor this year too. However, there was a twist to this trend. How you used depended on the #2 trend of 2012: the theme wedding. Classic and formal still preside but this year we saw a trend toward building your wedding more than around a color scheme, but themes like modern, rustic, vintage, and shabby chic were all too common. Lace was absolutely critical to creating them all. Invitations, backdrops, escort cards, place settings, favors and even the cake wore lace this year. Proving to be just as versatile in creating all of these looks, as it did for the gowns we saw this year, lace was the key part to creating the right theme.

As the economy brought out the craftiness of many you DIY brides, lace was an easy, elegant and affordable decor option for all themes. Rustic was the trend that came out top and used lace to soften up the rough edges, literally. Mason jars wrapped in lace held candles and florals, while tables were draped in burlap with lace trim to add a feminine touch to the rough fabric.

Vintage looks used lace curtains as backdrops, linens, and lots of doilies to create a casual yet refined look. Combined with vintage rental furniture and mismatched china, the lace added to refined and cohesive element to this style. Shabby Chic was a fun way to combine the two themes mentioned above.
So will you be having a theme to your wedding? What's it going to be a little shabby or a lot chic? My guess is no matter what, lace will be involved some how....
