With the holiday season comes with it a busier schedule. Not only am I ramping up with work but I am also getting out of the house more for holiday related events. One tradition my husband and I have taken to is going to see the SF Ballet's Nutcracker performance. I was nervous the first time my husband went and whether he would enjoy the ballet but, he did! So we now go back every season. I couldn't help but dress up in this tulle skirt. I was obsessed with it last year and I managed to snag it on sale but, then I never wore it...until now! I felt completely Carrie Bradshaw-ish in the outfit. With this look, I satisfied my little girl dream of wearing tulle all the time (from that one period of my life where I dreamed of being a ballet dancer...haha)
I have neer seen The Nutcracker live! I want to SO badly! What you wore is perfect for a ballet!

I LOVE THIS LOOK NANCY <3 Especially the tulle skirt, I admire your confidence to style such a statement piece with ease! I've seen a lot of tulle skirts in the traditional blush/pink color but this darker one still looks feminine without screaming princess or ballerina, haha! I just booked tickets to go see the Nutcracker in SF with my family for Christmas after hearing about your experience :) I'm super excited so see the performance and I hope my parents will like it too!!

Okay, you look jaw dropping. Seriously, my jaw dropped when I saw this post! I loooooove that you paired such an interesting tulle piece with such tough pieces, like your moto jacket. And your clutch is so pretty!
