Trending: Tulle skirts and how to wear them

Wednesday, October 23, 2013
I love tulle skirts, there is something so girly and pretty about this trend and it turns out, that the new tulle skirt trend is a very versatile piece in your wardrobe that has a childlike ballerina feel that is bound to make you look and feel like a princess. It’s super girly, chic and one of the most fun trends to start coming out to play.

How to style them = It really depends on your personal style! If you are a bit more edgy, throw on a studded leather jacket and combat boots with your skirt.
If you are on the preppy side, layer a button up shirt with a sweater and oxfords with your skirt to complete the look. 

If you are going for a classy look, pair the skirt with a bright blazer and some nude pumps. Instantly adorable! If you like a retro look, add a pair of dark tights and Mary Jane pumps with a simple blouse.

sticking to a skirt that is one length all the way around, preferably above or around the knee.
Asymmetrical hemlines or those that have a short lining and sheer overlay tend to look a bit cheap.

You can definitely play with contrasts when it comes to tulle and use the opportunity to tackle more masculine pieces of clothing to balance the skirt's softness.
 
There are many special occasion dresses that feature fitted bodices and tulle skirts. If you have a tulle skirt you can create your own after five look by partnering it with a complimentary corset.

Denim jackets work much in the same way as leather jackets or T-shirts with a tulle skirt, in that they play down the ballerina vibe and create a more casual look. In general you want to select cropped styles, or fitted styles, because tulle skirts can be quite full and overall this could swamp your figure if you don’t partner it with the right top silhouette.

Tulle skirts can be a great way to add some prettiness to your winter wardrobe. Try pairing them with different styles of tights and a cardigan. When it comes to footwear, ballet flats and strappy heels typically look really good with this style. 

It’s a fun item to have in the closet when you’re wanting to wear something a little more ‘outside the box’ and adventurous.


















This was something different and new. I admired it but couldn’t bring myself to try it on. Where would I wear it? How would I wash it? And most importantly, what would I wear with it?
