Not your Grandmother's Doily.....

Growing up my one of the things that I remember not only about my house, but most of the houses that I went into were the lace doilies that adorned all the end tables in any formal or family room.  Most of them have since been removed but my grandmother's house somehow always looks the exact same as it did when I was a child.  I would have never thought that this decor style would become such a trend in fashion.  Now and days the crochet detail that made those doilies have turned into something much larger.  From dresses to tops, the crochet look is one of the staples at Free People and I want to share a few of my favorites.

  4. Great eye! Yes I remember those growing up as well! Funny how art inspires everything... Everything is inspired from something else, and it all seems to connect!
