Skorch Converse were the best option for this dramatic, elegant, and feminine skirt. Styling a ball room tulle skirt is a challenge for any fashion blogger, but when you are only 5’4″ full length skirts are hard to style. My first instinct is to pair my Society Plus long grey tutu with my 8 inch Jessica Simpson platform booties. Considering those are the tallest heels I own and the ballroom tulle skirt STILL touches the ground, I said screw it. I pulled a Hillary Duff in Cinderella Story and decided that Converse were the best option for this dramatic, elegant, and feminine skirt. You all know how much looking girly makes me squirm. When Society + asked me to pick some plus size pieces off of their website, I knew I was in for a challenge. Society Plus has pretty feminine items; lots of skirts, floral dresses, flouncy tops etc. But I wanted to showcase some more clothing options that us curvy women had that were not the standard Forever21+ and Torrid. I decided on three Society Plus items that could be worked into my usual indie boho urban style. I decided on Society + Damask trouser pant, premium long grey tutu, and their Chicest of them All vest. When the package arrived I knew that the ballroom tulle skirt was going to be FUN.
