The Piece: Imitation Lace Tunic

The Investment: $280

Why We Covet: It will certainly be the prettiest piece in your closet, but it could also be the most versatile. Wear it now with skinny jeans and nude sandals during the day, with leather pants and tough jewelry on cool nights, and with opaque tights and a big sweater next fall. If you want to show off stems, you could potentially wear this as a minidress, although we might suggest a pair of tap shorts to cover your assets when you sit down. No matter how you wear this lace tunic, it's so pretty, and so delicate, you're sure to get lots of admirers.

Spring Into Yoga Class With a Draped, Flowy Top

I like to cover myself during Savasana with a flowy cardigan; it's nice being wrapped up and warm while in the meditative pose.

I like to cover myself during Savasana with a flowy cardigan; it's nice being wrapped up and warm while in the meditative pose. My cardigan also doubles as a cute way to cover up after class, which is essential in the cooler weather. With Spring just around the corner, ditch that down jacket and get yourself a draped top to wear after class. Long and flowy, it will pair perfectly with your yoga capris or leggings.

Look of the Day: Serene Scene

I adore balamoda's high-contrast photo shoot.

I adore balamoda's high-contrast photo shoot. Check out the juxtaposition between her checkered tunic and serene scene — don't you love the woodsy backdrop? She took a risk pairing her printed top with gold leggings and matching oxfords, but it paid off. A stylist in the making? I think so . . .

Come back and tell us what you have on!

Congrats to balamoda!

Trend Alert: The TTD

My daily routine of perusing Net-A-Porter led me to something so simplistically new: the TTD, also known as the top tunic dress.

My daily routine of perusing Net-A-Porter led me to something so simplistically new: the TTD, also known as the top tunic dress. However, I must give credit to Roland Mouret for this genius idea. The TTD is pretty much three pieces in one: a top when tucked into pants, a tunic paired with leggings, and a dress — rad. When shopping for TTDs, make sure to look for sleek shapes and solid colors for maximum versatility and always accessorize with tough elements. Three in one? It doesn't get better than that, folks.

Supersize This: Little Joule British Beachwear

This season's tunics have inspired me both on and off the beach.

This season's tunics have inspired me both on and off the beach. Great for throwing over a pair of jeans or capris when on a school run, they are also the perfect cover-up over when heading for the water.

Little Joule, the children's and baby line to come out of British outdoor clothing company Joules, has designed this adorable rose-print kaftan ($23) that would perfectly suit my Summer needs – if only it came in grown-up sizes. The company's entire line of girls and boys beachwear is made up of classic pieces with a twist that will keep tots comfortable and well-dressed wherever they spend the warm weather days.

eBay Find of the Week

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it.

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it. I nearly jumped out of my seat when I saw this Ethnic Print Cotton Tunic, size small. I immediately envisioned myself wearing it over leggings now and over my bikini during summertime. But, I probably don't need another tunic, so I'm giving it up to you. I suggest you snatch it.

The current bidding price is at $22.50 and the auction ends on Sunday, March 29. Good luck and happy bidding!

The Look For Less: Tory Burch Medallion Stephanie Tunic

I live in my tunics during Summer.
Tory Burch at ShopStyle

I live in my tunics during Summer. They're perfect for throwing on over a bikini and look even better when they're wrinkled from the sun and surf. I adore the medallion print on this Tory Burch Medallion Stephanie Tunic ($395), because it gives off a chic yet exotic aura. However, at that steep price, I won't be able to afford the airplane ticket to my seaside destination.
