Tulle, Lace, and Leather

December 4, 2017

If there’s something I love more than sparkle, it’s probably tulle and lace. While I’m normally all about the comfort and mobility of jeans and leggings, a girl needs some dressy options, too!

Last week I shared my slightly-more-casual sequined embroidered jeans & sequined top for holiday parties, but today is all about a slightly-more-formal, edgy-yet-feminine look. To be honest, sometimes I hate how reminiscent of elementary school a tulle skirt can be. (I know, I know, I wore a total girly tulle skirt in our engagement photos!) As an adult woman, I don’t want to feel like a little girl, so pairing this with some badass pieces makes all the difference.

This outfit is all about the balance: the classic and feminine tulle & lace combo, the badass-ness of a black leather jacket, the sparkle of a bold necklace, the edginess of charcoal gray, and the softness of wavy hair. Definitely not something my 2nd grade self would have worn. Absolutely a statement.
