Not your ordinary Tutu

April 13, 2018 By Ashley

The great thing about being a woman is that you can wear whatever you want. The options are endless from dresses to skirts, rompers, and even tutus. Admittedly though, the last one is my favorite. I’ve scoured my favorite websites, checked my favorite brands, and tried one or two too many, and have finally found my tutu! Why a tutu you ask? Because it’s unapologetically feminine, flirtatious, and fabulous! Also, surprisingly pretty versatile, which makes it not your ordinary tutu.

How to find your Tutu

There are quite a few companies online from Zara to Etsy that make tutu’s, but it’s all about finding one that fits your body type, personality, and style. For instance, I’m somewhat short waisted so a waistband is essential, not a stretchy one either, but one that lays flat, and zips up. Also, you have to find one that is fluffy vs. not fluffy, based on your body type.

This particular tutu works best for me because it’s fluffy, but not to the point where it’s overbearing my hips, it just skims them, and I love it! If you have slimmer hips then you can choose a tutu that’s fuller or wider hips then choose one that’s slimmer.

Finally, your personality and style are key! You don’t want to buy something that you can’t rock confidently, and trust me you have to “OWN” this look if you’re going to wear a tutu! Although they come in an array of colors black is my go to, plus I’m able to pair it with a lot more.

How I styled the look

I love love love this tutu! The layers and lift underneath are perfect. It’s lined, has tulle tiers, and is somewhat sheer, just FYI. In my mind, this tutu has somewhat of a Spanish flare, so I added a flare sleeved blouse and statement earring to compliment the look. This also made it the perfect time to feature my guitar, my baby! [*Spoiler Alert: I sing and play acoustic guitar! I started in undergrad & have recently picked it back up.]*

If you know me then you know I love injecting color into my wardrobe, but I have an affinity for all-black outfits. Another way, I’d style this look is by pairing it with a lightweight blazer and linen tank for summer, so versatile!

This top is from Loft, the heels are Steve Madden, and this skirt is from Dillards, plus it’s on super sale right now.

You can find all the details in the Shop my look below, and some alternatives. Although the tutu is my overall favorite, let’s talk about these heels.

They are my go-to heel because they go with EVERYTHING, literally everything; from jeans, skirts, dresses, shorts, and obviously tutu’s. They are super comfy/ wearable because of the stacked heel and not to mention sexy! So go out there lady, and find your perfect tutu!

Thank you for stopping by, love.

Feeling blessed, never stressed•//🖤//•

• Sometimes you just have to stop + choose gratitude. 🕊 Honey, when I tell you the last two months have been full of reasons & things to complain about, and everything that could happen seemed to happen ALL at once? 🙇🏽‍♀️ From feeling behind in some of my #gradschool work📚 , wedding planning 👰🏽 , time constraints, travel + commitments, plus feeling like I didn’t have my work-life balance on lock. It was a lot sis + I’m not even listing it all!🥴 
• Have y’all ever experienced that feeling of having too much to do & not enough time to do it in???🥴 I HAVE 🙋🏽‍♀️... 
• But instead of focusing only on ALL of that, I chose to not stress & focus on the fact that I also have equally if not MORE, reasons to be grateful!🕊
——
• So last month + this month, I’ve been intentional about starting/ ending the day with five things I’m grateful for... today even though the day isn’t over I already have 3️⃣✨ : 
——
1️⃣ I’m grateful for my mother— her wisdom, her words, and the grace she imparts is unmatched ✨
2️⃣ I’m grateful for friends I can call + count on, that are consistent.✨
3️⃣ I’m grateful to God, first, foremost, and always —- I would be no one + nothing without his grace + favor + love .✨ 
——
• I believe our power lies in the the words we speak over ourselves + our lives & the narrative we set with our words. If we make an effort to choose positive words + speak them with intention, then it’s only a matter of time before our mood + our environment will change.🕊•// What are you grateful for? Drop it in the comments ⬇️ ✨•

•🖤The true beauty + power of a woman resides •🖤The true beauty + power of a woman resides is her spirit, her drive, her resilience, her strength, her ability to show up unapologetically + authentically her self, and not let anyone else define her. 
•🖤We are defined by our own words, and not the words or the expectations of others. 
• 🖤That’s why it’s so important to speak positive words of affirmation over yourself + your circle— empowered women empower one another. So stand strong + proud, because you’ve earned every bit of your story, sis! Happy International Women’s Day!🎉•//🖤//•
