Tulle overlay: Whimsical Style
A few weeks ago, when I visited Jodie for a weekend, we enjoy a day of thrifting and shopping. The boutique we stopped by was Just be You-Tiful and I had a ball spending most of my fun money there. Since it was after we had thrifted, I knew that I didn’t have a budget, I could spend the rest of my cash there. That is kind of a fun and freeing experience: I found some really fun pieces, one of which is this tulle overlay.
This might look like a skirt, but it isn’t. It does not have a lining so you do have to wear a skirt (or jeans, or leggings, a dress) under which really will be a fun adventure for me to style again and again. It also is like a dress so you could wear it under a dress or a skirt to give it more poof. Here is Kym’s website Just Be Youtiful and store. She carries different things at each (Jodie has a code for 15% off Jtouch15).
I wore a thrifted pencil skirt underneath which I have had for quite a while which I also just styled recently for the Ageless Style link up. The wrap top was gifted last year from Clara SunWoo and my sandals or OkaB. I added a summery purse that from Valerie Avenue.
One of the daughter’s of a friend at church loves to wear tulle dresses, so I made sure to mention to her that I think of her anytime I wear a tulle piece. She actually was wearing a cute little tulle dress that Sunday. Another friend told me my skirt made her think of a fairy. I really love the whimsical feeling tulle gives me. And the waterfall style always makes me want to sashay.
I do like winter and spring layers, but it sure is fun to not have to wear layers either. I am an equal opportunity gal with my clothes! I love my jeans, I love my skirts and dresses, it sure is fun to play dress up everyday and color brings a smile to my face.
I probably wouldn’t have dreamed of wearing tulle 10 years ago, but here I am! I am loving it!
A bientôt!

I love tulle skirts! And the fact that you need to wear something underneath this one is even better! Think of all the styles to wear it! Great buy.

It makes it really fun! I was just thinking that a pair of shorts under and a graphic tee over could be something else to try!

Such a fun and whismical look. I think it’s so neat that it’s just an overlay and you can have fun playing around with different pairings.

Now, that is a genius idea! You’ve got the makings of so many fabulous outfits. I wonder how it would work under a skirt…would it be a bit like a crinoline? Love this look!

That is what I am thinking. the only thing is I feel like it would be very fluffy around the waist line. I will have to play around with it.
