It used to be that when we thought of the words "lace-up" the first thing to come to mind was our favorite pair of sneakers [1]; not so much anymore. Tops and dresses with this sexy detail [2] have been taking over our Instagram feed [3], and we're dying to try out the trend ourselves.
The lace-up look draws from the '70s-inspired outfits we spotted on the Fall 2015 runways [4], a little bohemian with a rock-star flair. But while for Summer, this breezy look shows just the right amount of skin, styled with sleek boots and a leather jacket, it also happens to be the coolest look for the coming Fall. Scroll to shop the style that makes crisscrossing too cool.
