One of the biggest fashion throwbacks on the fall 2011 runways was the lace trend. This intricate fabric has come and gone as a style trend since perhaps the dawn of humanity. Royalty, religious figures and peasants have historically shared a love of lace throughout the centuries. The delicate needlework has been used as a symbol of virginity and as a sexy addition to undergarments.

Jennifer Garner was spotted at an event earlier this month in a flawless, black lace dress, reminding us that lace is the perfect way to show off your bump and celebrate the winter season through fashion. Here are a few items you can use to follow the lace trend:
