Hard Rock Tutus

I'm not the kind of girl to just throw around the word 'love,' but I love love looooooove the juxtaposition of this outfit.  I am a major sucker for a tutu or tulle skirt (see here & here) so when eShakti send me this dress, I knew I could work things in many ways!  I can't wait to dress it up right, but for now I just had to pair it with the shirt I adore.

I'm not even ashamed to tell you that I only know one and half songs by Van Halen.

Get back, honky cat.

Over the weekend, one of my dreams came true when I went to see Sir Elton John live in concert on Saturday. We had pretty amazing seats behind the stage backstage :) ! If there was ever an occasion for a tutu, this would be it (this was actually my New Year's Dress that never got photographed!)  We walked to Beale Street before the concert for a bite to eat, amid a ton of pre-St. Patrick's Day revelers.  The evening was a true merrymaking success when as a finale Elton and I sang a duet to "Your Song".  Fun was had by all. Side note: the title of this post is one of my favorite Elton songs, which he did not play.  I will forgive him because he provided a nonstop dance party for 2.5 hours.  

 Running in to two of my favorite bloggers downtown? Extra win for the weekend!
