Who I Admire on Instagram

I did not get on the band-wagon of Instagram until last summer.. I know, pretty late. Girl, I had no clue what I was messing, oh my gosh! It is my second biggest source of inspiration behind Pinterest for outfits and makeup. But the ladies who I'm going to be talking about shortly, are completely opposite from my style. One of the ladies has neon colored hair and always has on bright lip- which I love everything about, but would never have the guts to wear, while the other 4 ladies style reflects kind of a grunge glam look. Inside of me, if I ever decided to change my style, I would totally have a grunge glam look! I tend to like things more, the bigger the difference they are from me.

Ok, I'm excited to show you these ladies so lets jump right in!---->

Bringing Back The Stunning Tulle Skirt, Inspired By Carrie Bradshaw- Flirty Sophistication



The Flirty ,Sophisticated Skirt


From the streets of NYC, to the heart of Paris. This look can be an essential to your wardrobe. Everyone needs to have one of these must have tulle skirts. They are a great addition to any style.

                 





These tulle skirts give you a day to night look with little transition needed.They are beautiful and classy. I love the way it can be paired with heels, flats and even sneakers to complete an edgier look. I can't wait to wear mine!          





 How to complete the look. Step 1: Find the tulle skirt of your liking. Step 2: Pair it with natural colored sweaters and a pair of flats, for a more conservative look. Step 3: to make it a little edgy, add a pop of color,  a statement necklace and a blazer or jacket. Step 4: To make this a romantic evening look, put on a pair of nude, strap heels, a light colored sweater  with a breathtaking pair of diamond studs, Finally finish the look with a simple clutch. Do you dare to try ?

                                                                  Do you like these looks?
