Toughened Up Tutus

November 15th, 2010

Zara Sweater, Free People Sunglasses, Gifted Elizabeth and James Skirt, Michael Kors Watch, Coach Bag, J.Crew Socks, Steve Madden Booties

I’ve always had a thing for tutus, but the typical pink color made them feel relatively inappropriate for anyone past the age of seven. I love that this one’s not only black, but also lined with leather on the waistband and along the trim. It’s going to be an edgy staple throughout the holidays and I can’t wait to pair it with crystal-embellished tights, a leopard blazer and a sequined clutch. For now, it’s the perfect piece to dress up an oversized sweater for an unexpected trip to Santa Barbara for brunch.

I am fascinated with this look- I also have some J Crew socks that I love to pair with a mini! Great look for fall… especially as a student.

This looks slouchy and not pulled together. I get tutus but this look is a little frumptastic.

I have such a thing for tutu shapes too – whether it be a dress with a fitted bodice and puffy tutu skirt, or a silk tulle mini skirt. You make it look so wearable and effortless – love it!

Wow! sooooooo cute

Elizabeth & James is one of my all time favorite lines. The way you took something girly and added a sweater with a masculine feel to it makes it super young and fresh. Fabulous.

I have been hunting for such beautiful knit thigh high socks forever! the only kind I have are pantyhose, and that might be a little more on the inappropriate side :$
