The Petite Philosopher

Thoughtful Style.

Fashion

On Pointe.

“Elegance is not the prerogative of those who have just escaped from adolescence, but of those who have already taken possession of their future.” – Coco Chanel

There’s nothing as fun and feminine as tulle. This trend has been popular for quite some time now with reason – it adds a playful vibe to any outfit. Usually when one thinks of tulle, ballerinas or brides come to mind, but the fashion world has proven that tulle does not have to be reserved for certain people or occasions. Though my particular dress is more on the formal side, tulle can be made more casual by adding a denim jacket or even sneakers. If you are petite like me, I would advise against tulle skirts that are long or voluminous because they might overwhelm your frame or make you appear too juvenile. Instead, try looking for less layers or midi length or above. I just feel so pretty and luminous in this dress, and that’s exactly how I think clothes should make someone feel!
