I can't seem to get enough of Tulle! From my Anthropologie Tulle jacket to all the Tulle in the Rodarte for Target collection I am just loving tulle. After reading Elle, Vogue and Marie Claire it is clear that Tulle will be HUGE this spring and I couldn't be happier. My love of Tulle began years ago, 26 years ago to be exact when the 1984 Peaches & Cream Barbie doll came out. She was draped in Tulle! Now I never actually had this Barbie in my collection but it was one of those Barbies that all my friends had and she was just fabulous (not that I didn't have PLENTY of my my own fabulous barbies) but for some reason she sticks out in my memory. Well I am very pleased that tulle is back and now I can drape myself is layers of tulle.

Oh I love tulle, too! I wore my navy Rodarte tulle skirt last week and received so many compliments (albeit someone calling me a ballerina). I love a peek of tulle in just about anything...
ReplyDeleteOh gosh how I love tulle! Especially pink tulle! I think my love started with Gone with the Wind, but i remember that barbie!
ReplyDeleteGUESS WHAT I SAW @ TARGET YESTERDAY?!?!? A PEACHES AND CREAM BARBIE!!! THEY BROUGHT HER BACK, and I stood in the isle for a few minutes holding the box and explaining to my daughters why she was special. LOL I never had her but it seemed like all my friends did, and BOY did it bring back memories!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm dying -- I totally had that Barbie, too. Actually, I'm sure I still do somewhere at my parents' house! And you're right, that dress is very reminiscent of Peaches & Cream Barbie!
