Thanks to quickly emerging NYC based designer Allison Parris, tutus are no longer reserved for your five-year-old niece’s ballet class alone. A superbly girly, yet coyly sexy version for grown-ups has hit our racks, and the mere sight of this tulle bombshell makes us giddy.
Our resident southern belle Mimi has expertly curated three looks - all full of girlish whimsy with their own special twist:
A nautical striped T and layered chains exude classic sweetness; throw on Joie’s snakeskin tank dress (pinned up as a tank – yes, you can do this at home), our fav lace up booties, edgy gold and leather jewelry, and grab your black Clarevivier tote for girls’ night out downtown; or cozy up to fall’s hiker chic trend with a plaid felt BB Dakota jacket, layered scarves in autumnal hues, charcoal grey tights, and rustic tan leather ankle boots.
WARNING: this skirt will instantly transform you into a twirling, champagne drinking, bon-bon eating, life-of-the-party kind of girl, and yes, you will receive a stare or two (or three) on your way to the bar, too.

'Til next time,
