Today marks the conclusion of Midi Madness, just in time for me to head to the mountains!  I took a poll this morning to decide between a silk and tulle midi, and tulle was the resounding favourite!

Since I wasn’t going to be anywhere near Velcro today, tulle was a safe choice!  One of the easiest ways to style a “fancy” piece like this is by pairing it with a simple tee.  I needed a new white tee since my dog wrecked my old one and found this one as soon as I stepped into VV Boutique!
