The Magic of Tulle








Sweater: ASOS [on sale!] / Skirt: PB&J Boutique / Heels: Shoemint / Jewelry: J.Crew Factory earrings, chevron knuckle rings c/o Handmade by Nina Rae / Lipstick: Maybelline "Plum Perfect /


Once upon a time there lived a DC fashion blogger who longed to own a tulle skirt - that didn't drain her bank account. Then one day, after being patient for a while, she found a very affordable skirt online and there was one left in her size - so of course she had to order it. A few days later an ivory tulle skirt arrived at her door and she couldn't wait to twirl around in it (for all the neighbors to see). So she put on a metallic sweater, her new tulle skirt and heels - and a love affair was born. After all, one ivory tulle skirt can change your life.

The End.

P.S. - When Matt first saw my outfit, he said I looked like Princess Leia. Now, I'm all for a top knot, but I will not wear two side knots (?) covering my ears anytime soon.
