Pastel dreams // How to wear a tulle skirt

Hello darlings!  I hope you all had amazing long weekend.  Today, I thought I’d share a little about how to wear one of the most girly and romantic garments, the tulle skirt!

If you love feminine fashion, a tulle skirt is an absolute wardrobe must-have.  While tulle fabric is usually reserved for ballerinas, brides and children playing dress-up, I think women of any age can pull off the style as long as they stay within a few guidelines.

So how do you wear a tulle skirt in 2017?  And how do you keep it from looking childish?

First of all, make sure to choose a tulle skirt in an appropriate length.  A midi length skirt that hits just past your knees is your best bet for getting that classic look.  Tulle maxi skirts are also super pretty, but they are much less versatile and are best saved for special occasions.

My next tip for wearing tulle as an adult is to choose a classic colour.  Now, if you feel confident rocking a hot pink tutu, don’t let me be the one to stop you (you do you girl!).  But if you are looking for a more mature, elegant look, stay away from vibrant hues and opt for a tulle skirt in a neutral colour.   Black, white, grey or beige are all great options!

Now that you know how to choose the perfect skirt, whatever do you pair it with?  For a daytime look I prefer to wear a tulle skirt with a pretty blouse.  Whether you choose a crisp button-up or ruffled chiffon top, either option will look effortlessly composed when tucked into the waistband of the soft layered skirt.  For an evening look, a lace bodysuit dresses up the outfit perfectly and makes for a stunning juxtaposition to the airy tulle skirt.

Most importantly, if you love the idea of incorporating a tulle skirt into your wardrobe, just go for it!  Pair it with your girliest accessories, twirl around in the soft layers and let your childhood princess dreams come true.
