I was a complete tomboy as a kid. Short hair, no dresses (except when I was made to wear one for parties, weddings etc), no Barbies.. But now as a grown woman I have a huge love towards a few mega girly things, like tutus. My God how much I love tutus!!!

So when I saw this gorgeous, navy number at ASOS main range, I knew I had to try if the size 18 would fit me. Oh and it does, even though I’m usually size 24-26 <3! I adore this skirt, it makes me feel super cute, and I just have to smile when I think about it!

Unfortunately the big sizes are sold out at the moment, but if you fancy one yourself, just keep an eye out for returns! (And I hope ASOS will bring it back in another colour, as there was burgundy one before this.)

T-shirt / T-paita: 20, Simply Be (similar) | Skirt / Hame: 18, ASOS | Skirt / Hame (underneath the tutu / tutun alla): XL, Old Navy (similar) | Socks /Sukat: Matalan (similar) | Boots / Kengät: River Island (similar) | Necklace / Kaulakoru: H&M (similar) | Rings / Sormukset: New Look Inspire & various others | Glasses / Rillit: Select Specs | Lippy / Huulipuna: Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids in Vibrant Mandarin

Mä olin täysin ‘poikatyttö’ lapsena. Lyhyt tukka, ei mekkoja (paitsi juhlissa, kun oli pakko), ei Barbieita.. Mutta nyt aikuisena jotkut super-tyttömäiset jutut vetää mua puoleensa kuin magneetti, kuten tutu-hameet. Siis RAKASTAN tutuja!

Eli heti kun näin tämän upean, sinisen tulle-hameen ASOS:in päämallistossa, niin tiesin, että mun on kokeiltava josko koko 18 mahtuisi. JA SEHÄN MAHTUU, vaikka yleensä käytän kokoa 24-26 <3! En kestä, miten iloiseksi tää hame saa mut, ei oo hymylle loppua :)!

Valitettavasti hameesta on nyt isot koot loppuunmyyty, mutta jos himoitset tätä tutua itsekin, niin kannattaa kytätä palautuksia! (Ja eiköhän ASOS tee näitä vielä jossain muussa värissä, sillä tätä ennen heillä oli tällainen burgundynä.)

Hello lovelies,

I revealed in this post that I am in a shopping ban, but that I have made one purchase – and now it’s time to show it to you. I can’t seem to shake this illness off, but thankfully I had prepared for this post a while ago, and had the photos ready :).

But let me tell you something first.. I was always a tomboy as a kid, and a teen, and a young adult, and a not so young adult.. haha. Basically I’ve only started to embrace all things girly during the past few years, and lately I have been dying to get my hands on a tulle skirt – which is basically the last thing that the young me would have worn ;). I spotted Cassiefairy on Twitter, I guess someone re-tweeted her or something, and I decided to contact her and ask if she makes custom made tulle skirts. She answered yes, which made me totally happy! I explained to her what kind of a skirt I wanted, she was really helpful with answering questions about fabrics and colours, and about a week later I got my skirt. I absolutely love it, and I am already planning to get another one – different colour and slightly different shape though – this girl needs more tutus :)!

I’m sure that you will see a more girly look for this skirt at some later point, but for this outfit I decided to ‘punk’ it up a bit with biker boots and jacket, and with my spikey pearl necklace.

OOTD: Punky princess

Skirt: custom made by Cassiefairy | Jacket: 20, Primark (similar at Simply Be, similar at ASOS Curve, similar at New Look Inspire, similar at Forever 21+) | Dress (worn as a top): 20, New Look Inspire (similar at ASOS Curve, similar at Forever 21+: 1, 2) | Tights: E, We Love Colors | Boots: Evans (similar at Simply Be, similar at New Look) | Necklace: ASOS (pearl necklace at New Look, spike necklace at ASOS: 1, 2) | Glasses*: Four Eyes | Lippy: Natural Collection Moisture Shine in Rose Bud – available in Boots (similar by MAC)

The skirt is super cute, isn’t it? I can’t wait to show you a different look with it! If you are interested in one as well, Cassiefairy’s prices for custom made skirts like this are about £45-£60, all depending on the amount of fabric you want. BUT since she is so awesome, she has promised my readers 15% off if you quote my blog when emailing her. And yes, she does ship worldwide too, woohoo!
