7 Ways to Wear Eyelet ...

As much as I love lace, it does have a restricting, formal connotation… which is why I also adore eyelet! Eyelet can be much more casual, so it’s very versatile, and can be worn in so many ways! Don’t believe me? Keep reading, my dear! Here are 7 ways to wear eyelet… especially this spring!

1 Eyelet Oxfords

Eyelet Oxfords Price: $198.00 at anthropologie.com
Oxfords are very on-trend right now, perfect for pairing with cuffed shorts or skinny jeans, and even feminine frocks. This pair in particular makes an interesting twist on the obvious menswear inspiration, with a comfortable cinched heel and clever eyelet cutouts across the almond-shaped toes. Be warned, sweetie, that these shoes run a little small… so order a half-size up.
