Sometimes it's fun to get all fancied up. 

Sometimes I like wearing Sequins and Tulle and Glittering Earrings at the same time. 

Sometimes you just need to rock a high pony.

Sometimes a girl just needs a night on the town. 

Sometimes I absolutely love being a woman.

Wearing this outfit is one of those times. For me it doesn't get much better than this!

Short and sweet for a Tuesday! If you love sparkles you can shop sparkly crop tops below! Happy Monday! xo

Outfit Post: Chambray & A Tulle Skirt

 

 

Space 46 Boutique Ivory Tulle Skirt - Wendy 30"

Old Navy Chambray Button Up (old - new version here)

Zara Rose Gold Double Strap Pumps (sold out - similar)

I have a confession to make.. I'm in love with the Midi skirt! It's such a ladylike and classic shape. Whenever I see it, I always think of Grace Kelly in "To Catch A Thief." At first I wasn't sure if I could pull it off since I'm shorter and petite (I have the shorter version too - seen here). But in fun fabrics, like this tulle version or a bold color, it's instantly modern and I'm hooked! I seriously want to wear this skirt like every day! It's even more gorgeous in person and so well made. I'm so thankful to have discovered Space 46 Boutique. Every woman needs to add this piece to her closet.

 

Spring officially starts tomorrow and I'm convinced that Mother Nature is going to start cooperating - I'm in desperate need of some sunshine. Happy Wednesday everyone!

Happy Valentine's Day!! I think that as I've gotten older I realize how fab it is to celebrate V-Day with not just my husband, but my family & friends too! It's a fun to be reminded of all the people in your life who you love and not just who you're in love with :) So, what better way to celebrate that day of love than a big pink ball of tulle! I am so in love with Space 46 Boutique, the new online shop I discovered this past fall. My, the owner, has an amazing vision for all things feminine and it really shows in the designs of her gorgeous skirts. I have 2 and always receive A TON of compliments whenever I wear them.

 

Also since moving to The Artic I have taken stock out in companies that sell tights. This Hanes Confetti Dot pair is my newest addition. They're girly, chic and totally wearable for the office or playtime. Don't forget to treat yourself and use the coupon code "BEDA15" on all DaisyGem orders!

Valentine's Day is quickly approaching which means it's time to start planning your outfit! V-Day is one of those holidays that you either love or hate. I was never really the biggest fan of the hoopla. I'm not exactly what you would call a romantic... But now we enjoy it because we decide the best way for us to celebrate. So that could mean going to a movie, eating a fancy dinner or even sharing a bottle of bubbly and hanging out at the house. One year I even watched scary movies with my girlfriends - now that was a good one :)  Valentine's Day is what you decide to make of it!

So here are 3 ways for you it. Whether it's a casual affair, dinner after work or an all out Valentine's celebration you can party in many different outfits. I love a good casual boyfriend jean but neon pink heels give the outfit a feminine twist. And if you're a working gal, you might not have time to change before meeting your sweetie out. Which is why adding red tights to your office appropriate black and white ensemble creates instant Valentine's Day flair. I personally just received this Space 46 Boutique tulle skirt in hot pink and I can't wait to wear it. If I were going to go all out this year, this is my idea of a perfect V-day look. Right down to the lariat necklace & gorgeous DaisyGem sequin clutch. You can also use the Daisy Gem Promo Code BEDA15 for 15% off your entire order!

So what are your Valentine's day plans? But more importantly, what the heck are you wearing?! :) xo

Winter Wish List

 

Zara Tartan Scarf || Gentle Fawn Sequin Sweatpants via LuLu's || Space 46 Boutique Ivory Tulle Midi Skirt || Diba Blossom Pump via DSW || Michael Kors Gold & Black Bradshaw Watch || Old Navy Gingham Plaid Button Up

 

Although our weather patterns seem to be having difficulty deciphering what time of the year it was (74 yesterday, 53 today) I'm well aware that winter is coming in strong! And I wouldn't exactly call this my Christmas list but more what items I want so that I can create dazzling winter and holiday party outfits.....

 

Okay ever since I spotted this Zara beauty on Poor Little It Girl, I cannot get it off my mind. It just looks so cozy & comfy that it would go with any outfit. I'm not sure why but I own absolutely nothing plaid so I figured this could be a great start. And speaking of owning nothing plaid... I didn't think I could pull off a gingham shirt - but after seeing this pin on Pinterest - I'm determined to try! This Old Navy option (comes in blue too) is the perfect price to play around in.

 

I love dressing up for Thankgiving. It's basically the jump start to the holiday party season. However my waistline usually hates me since I have to unbutton my jeans 1/2 way through my 2nd (or 3rd) helping. Enter Sequin Slouchy Pants.. with an elastic waistband... I mean, hello! Genius or what? I also am obsessed with the new black and gold version my favorite Bradshaw watch from Michael Kors. It's so sleek & sexy! Also a gal can never have too many pairs of pointy toe pumps - how about this studded option at a fabulous steal of a price!

 

Okay, now I've been hinting at wanting a tulle skirt for about 100 years now.. but thankfully Space 46 Boutique is coming out with a midi version that will be available to ship around December 7th. Which means it will be here just in time for Christmas!!!! I can't even begin to tell you how ecstatically happy this makes me. I plan to never take it off. I might even sleep in it (sorry Bill)

 

What about you? What are you currently craving for your wish list? Any of these items on your holiday gift list? Shop these picks and more options below! Happy Tuesday!

 

3 Ways To Wear It - Tulle Skirt

Space 46 Boutique Ivory "Wendy" Tulle Skirt

Outfit 1: TopShop knitted chunky sweater || Sole Society "Skylar" ankle bootie || GiGi New York "All In One" Clutch in emerald

Outfit 2: Target "Favorite Denim"chambray shirt || NastyGal "Starlight" glitter Mary Jane pump || ILY Couture "Juliet" crystal sparkle necklace

Outfit 3: Line & Dot sequin top || LuLu's SixtySeven "Layla" cut out bootie || Michael Kors "Bradshaw" watch in black/gold

Let's get real - what little girl didn't love twirling around in a bright pink tutu? I know I did! I'd put my ballet outfits on even when it wasn't time for me to go to the studio. There's something about a big ball of tulle that just makes a girl feel so giddy, am I right?

Well now that we're [kind of] adults it's time to bring back the tutu! But no, please. Don't make it bright pink and definitely don't make it short. The grown-up tutu skirt is now referred to as "The Tulle Skirt". Most of them are midi length and have been all the rage lately. I for one have had this Space 46 Boutique option on my wish list ever since I came across them on instagram one day. It seems to hit right at the knee, making it not quite a midi length, but still very ladylike. Can we also talk price? It's only 68 bucks!! That is a freaking steal compared to the almost $200 one Anthropologie put out last fall.

So here are 3 super fun (and super adult) ways I'd style this piece. The first outfit has a slightly western feel between the ankle booties and comfy sweater. The GiGi clutch keeps it feminie and girly. The second ensemble is a mix between comfy and casual. I mean, what outfit doesn't look good with a chambray button up, statement necklace and glitter heels? Last, but definitely not least, is just for this blog's namesake. A sequin top, chunky mirrored mules and the new version of my favorite watch are just what I need for my dream grown-up tutu outfit.

So what do you think? How would you style your Space 46 skirt? Oh and P.S. don't forget that today is the absolute last day for my ILY Couture giveaway!! I hope you've entered! xoxo
