The Lace Flare

About a year ago when I first saw the black lace flares from Bona Drag featured on fashiontoast, I fell into a sort of style love spell. I had a major if only moment. If only I could justify such a splurge. When a similar pair arrived on the Free People site for a similarly out of reach price I fell again for their glory. The other day on a jaunt to Salvation Army, a trip even out of my current budget, I found a bit of glory with a green $5.00 price tag stapled to the waistband. Oh my lace flares! True they were lined with a terrible nylon lining but that was an easy fix. Snip, snip, et voila!
Although the "tabacco" colored ones from Free People are still tempting...
