Tulle-tastic...

I am a firm believer in not saving things for best, I love getting all dressed up and the thought of only wearing certain items of clothing on special occasions makes me feel really quite sad. Who knows what may happen to you in the future? Preachy as it sounds, my motto is to try and live each day to its fullest and any excuse to wear this skirt is alright with me! ;) What I love about this skirt is that you can wear it all dressed up or dressed down for a more casual look like this one. The weather has been so weird around here, it has been absolutely boiling (can you believe it has been warm enough for bare legs in April?!) but I'm glad we get occasional bursts of rain too, I know it's controversial but I'm really not a fan of summer!

Jacket:  c/o George at ASDA, top: NW3 by Hobbs, skirt: Monki, shoes: Marks & Spencer
This gorgeous owl top is a long-term resident of my wardrobe and I absolutely love it, it is just so darned comfy. I do like wearing it with bright colours too but it just works so well with black! I have been trying to use less heat on my hair and embrace a more natural look hence the slightly unruly curls here!


I really need to work out how to iron this skirt, it looks so awful all creased up like this! (oops!) I should probably wear this with slightly higher heels but I just can't be dealing with that for a busy day at work and I love how much more relaxed it is with these divine shoes. I have recently ordered a very similar coral pair of shoes from Clarks and I cannot wait to try them with this skirt!


How would you style a tulle skirt?

You look absolutely gorgeous here and have totally nailed the dressing down, especially with the leather jacket! I love your hair curly, embrace the natural!

Such a lovely skirt, I love tulle skirts paired with tees, it's definitely a look I'd like to recreate!

Awesome skirt! I don't think you need heels with it- it looks great with flats.

I love tulle skirts. I need to wear mine a lot more often. I love how you styled it. A casual t-shirt is a perfect match.

You look amazing Maria, that skirt suits you beautifully and I love the cute owl top as well, lovely! I've only ever worn a tulle skirt once and that was for a Christmas party which I loved because it made me feel like a princess so I really should invest in another one like it, and I completely agree with dressing up just for fun, life's too short! - Tasha

Hey! I stumbled across your blog searching for a photo of a pair of clarks shoes actually on someone's feet (they don't have those photos on the online shop!). But I'm so glad I found your blog as I've spent the last 30 minutes drooling over all the gorgeous dresses you have. Your sense of style is impeccable!

And that owl tshirt really is a treasure.

Love this!! Tulle and tees are made for each other, why did I not think of this earlier...?
