Oh goodness I think I completely mislead you all with the picture! The dress I have is not ballerina tulle whatsoever. It has a satin skirt with one layer of the tulle over it for dimension, but it is not short (it's knee length) so it does not poof out like a child's dress would. I think I made you all believe I would actually consider wearing a tutu styled dress! Not at all haha. More than likely I will not wear it for pref, but it would work great for a date function as it is actually a classy styled dress. Again, not a poofy, social faux pas, ballerina/wedding dress!
Also, it is from White House Black Market, so really it's not one of those "out-there crazy" dresses. Thanks for the feedback though!
