How to wear white lace

This is something I have been thinking about lately. I have a white lace top I bought at a thrift shop and I've been thinking how I can style it so I don't look like I'm fresh from my First Communion. I think this girl has it right: she is wearing a dress made of white lace but paired it with a wide belt and darker tights and boots to make it appropriate for an evening out. I think for a daytime look she could play with paler colors as well but keep with the strong waist/bold belt concept. Or leave it as a simple shift dress and add more jewelry and fun flat sandals...the possibilities of a good piece are endless...
