Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Eyelet & Link Up On the Edge #310
Summer in the northern hemisphere is quickly winding down as the children are getting ready to return to school (or have returned already) and the hot and humid temperatures are beginning to recede. Before we launch ourselves headfirst into fall fashion, Nancy and I have decided to have one last summer-inspired theme for this series this year. We have chosen Eyelet as our featured theme for September’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. If you are unfamiliar with eyelet, it is simply a fabric that is “characterized by small patterned cut-outs that are typically finished with embroidered stitches throughout the body of the fabric”. (Source)
What is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book?
It is a monthly series that Nancy and I both publish on our blogs on the 15th of each month. Anyone who would like to participate and be featured can send us their photos with a short description explaining if the item was a Good Buy or one that you will be saying Good-Bye to. You do not have to be a blogger to join. Anyone is welcome. We will give you the theme for the next month in each post. Photos will be due to us by the 10th of the month. However, for this month we are asking that you have your submissions to us by September 2 because Nancy is heading off on holiday for two weeks and needs to get her posts scheduled ahead of time. So please join us for September by sending some photos and descriptions of your favorite (or least favorite) Eyelet garments to shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com or to info@nancysfashionstyle.com by September 2, 2022. You are welcome to submit more than one photo if you would like features on both of our blogs.
As much as I adore the beautiful whimsy and vintage feel of eyelet, I do not own very many eyelet things. But let’s see what I can dig up!
First up…my thrifted white eyelet jumpsuit by Zara…
White eyelet tops…
White eyelet Converse…
Black eyelet dress…
Blue eyelet top…
And there you have it…that seems to be all of my eyelet. Do you have any eyelet to share?

I wish I had some eyelet! I do love it. I just never seem to run it across it in shades other than white. You have some fabulous examples!

Thanks, Michelle! It does seem like eyelet in colors other than white are rare. I have a few black eyelet pieces that I didn’t share. I should get some of those photographed for the post! I hope you have a wonderful weekend, my friend!

Shelbee, your eyelet jumpsuit-I love it! All of your eyelet pieces are so pretty. I don’t have much of this fabric in my closet either, maybe because they seem to go hand in hand with the short summer season. Thanks so much for the feature, and enjoy your weekend!
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thanks so much, Di! Eyelet does seem very specific to summer pieces which is probably why I don’t own very much of it either. Since we have 10 months of winter where I live, my summer wardrobe is rather small! I hope you have a lovely weekend!

Hmmm….I don’t have any eyelet pieces to share. But I LOVE the eyelet Converse, and the blue eyelet top is gorgeous and unsual compared to the typical white eyelet.
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thanks, Sally! My eyelet Converse are probably my favorite eyelet that I own. I agree that eyelet that is not in the traditional white can be super fun! I have a few black eyelet pieces as well that I didn’t share. I should get those photographed for the post! I hope you have a lovely weekend, my friend!

I don’t actually have any eyelet in my wardrobe! I’ve tried on a few eyelet pieces but never found the perfect one! it’s a shame as there are some cute pieces out there and others wear them so well.
Thank you for the link up 🙂 Hope you are having a good weekend 🙂

I find that eyelet comes in very specific styles which would make it difficult to find the perfect pieces that would suit some fashion aesthetics. Hopefully, you find a cute eyelet something that suits you! I hope you have a wonderful weekend, Mica!

I bought a dress with eyelet trim for my holiday last month so I will submit that. I’m trying to stretch summer out as much as possible too!
