What an amazing weekend. Saturday I met up with Mil & Jules from South by Northwest to go see Emily Schuman from Cupcakes & Cashmere! She was in Seattle promoting her latest book and clothing line. The meet and greet was at the downtown Nordstrom and everyone who came got the opportunity to meet Emily, get her autograph, and pose for a photo (see my pic on Instagram).

I’ve been to these events before, but this one was very organized, and Emily was an absolute gem! She was so personable and 100% genuine. I felt like I was chatting with a girlfriend. This made me respect her that much more.

I also had the pleasure of meeting Julianna from Blush & Camo. I spotted her in line, and she greeted me with a big hug and smile. It felt like we had known each other for years. Definitely check out her lovely blog. She’s a doll.

Let’s talk about this skirt. I love the color, the pleats, and the laser cut details, but for some reason I found it difficult to style. The solution: keep it simple. I wore this look with my favorite silk blouse and light brown wedges, and topped it off with my new layering necklace and gold stacking rings.

Thanks so much for reading. Don’t forget to stop by this Thursday for the second installment of my blogging resource series. If you missed the first one, you can check it out here. See you then!

Carrie Bradshaw Moment

Lace & Pearls Tulle SkirtLace & Pearls Tulle Skirt 1Lace & Pearls Tulle Skirt 2Lace & Pearls Tulle Skirt 4 Lace & Pearls Tulle Skirt 3Chambray: J.Crew (similar) | Skirt: Club Monaco (similar) | Necklace: Loft (similar) | Bracelet: J.Crew (old) | Shoes: Jambu (old) | Lipstick: Bite Beauty (color Moka)

When I picture a tulle skirt, I cannot help but think theatrical or Carrie Bradshaw. Finding the balance between the two can be hit or miss. So what better way to honor Carrie then to pair this look with a classic chambray shirt. While the skirt takes center stage, the rest of the look remains simple yet fun.

The challenge of owning a tulle skirt is the styling aspect. You now have this great piece and no idea how to wear it. Pinterest has been helpful, allowing me to curate a board of creative ways to don a tutu.

Want a tulle skirt of your own? Then check out Space 46. This site was recommended to me by Nazneen from Nazneen Zainal. She is a girlie girl and wears a tulle skirt like a champ!

Kudos to my mom for taking these pics. Thanks so much!
