And the winner is...: the Shabby Apple "Academy Award" skirt

Since I posted about my ever evolving personal style yesterday, which includes a healthy dose of tutu-love, I figured it was a great time for this post. Back in February (or was it January?) I entered a Shabby Apple giveaway on Fashion Is Spinach (a blog I've followed since I've followed style/fashion blogs) for a tulle skirt and by some small miracle, I won (it was a weird month - I also won a Banana Republic Mad Men collection ring and a year's subscription to New York magazine over the course of a few weeks). I ended up with an awesome black tulle skirt. But though it is awesome, I couldn't help but wonder how on earth I would incorporate it into my wardrobe and what I would wear it for. But then I got an idea. I could use it to fulfill one of my high school style dreams (which will give you an idea of how my style has evolved). I could use it to fulfill my dream of dressing like a dead girl. Not just any dead girl though, the dancing corpse from My Chemical Romance's "Helena" video...or at least one of her funeral attendants. So that's what I did.
