So, Sarah :
Inspired by Melanie :
Threw out a challenge to rock tulle, a teacup, and a step, without slipping into the Abyss of Twee....
I think I've given it a fair shot, despite not owning a teacup!
They both looked farking gorgacious, don't you think?!

Okay, now you've properly loaded... WOW. You take tutus to a whole new level! Big, bold, blue, billowing, barking-madly gorgeous. Your beverage of choice and boots certainly keep the twee at bay. And I love how your self-made hat and mug are matching in their spotted joy. Thank you for this!
So I knew, I just KNEW that if someone was to take up the challenge and do a totally kickass rock and roll version of tulle with a tea cup, it would be YOU! No fear of the twee here, You Rock Chick Majesty!
You look amazing, love the electric blue froth and crazy leopard, and who doesn't like a wee shot from a coffee mug?
I LOVE that us girls just wanna have fun together! xxxxxx
Until recent things such as pinterest-mania, tuille and old china often meant more 'gothic' than twee.
Love that you're reclaiming it!!!!
Oh, this is PERFECT. I LOVE it. Especially the pretty skirt with the tough boots. That first picture is priceless. Must. Get. Floofy. Petticoat.
Whooooooaaaaaaaaa I love it!!!
Great challenge girls, everyone added her own vision and it's super fun-tastic!! I really can't pick up a winner, but well..this blue new wave goddess is in my heart now!It's like Siouxie meeting Nina Hagen meeting Helga and my eyes are full of sparkles!! Everything is perfect, from the "proper" use of the cup to the hand made hat! I love the boots and the Holy Mary necklace so much too!
Love
You looking very fine in crinoline. I'm equally inspired. I want to make a neon rainbow one at a maxi length yay. Thats a great winter look.
Hehe absolutely NO twee here!!!! The blue really looks kick-arse on you. I'll have to add you to my post. Xx
EX-FRICKIN-QUISITE! The blue is so so so gorgeous and I ADORE that mad leopard print headwear and the KILLER BOOTS! And holy mary mother Helga's breasts, pray for us fabularse swingers now! Love you more than leopards! Sarah xxx
Fantastic, just fantastic.
***dry humping keyboard*** Ooops hello there, sprung you caught me out!!! FECK you're one HELLUVA woman - I remember seeing you with Baby Rose's mama in tutu's at a fair and me swooning with delicious moistness. Oh god, you are taking this to a whole new level baby!!!!!!! Double-handed arse-squeeze GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

I just might like this best because it's loud crazy and yet still beautifully feminine just like you sweetheart! The blue tutu rocks my world and I love the boots and leopard bits. I think mine will end up like yours but PINK! Fingers crossed I gotta do this!
XXOO

LOVE this outfit! You look great and that petticoat is just fabulous.
You are rockin' the tulle and Teacup ---and screw the Earl Grey. It's much more kick-ass to be drinking some likker out of the cool polka dot mug!
Love the tutu event going on, i should join i got a tutu kick ass pic!

Tulle and a tipple! Why the fark not ? You look bloody brilliant.

Aah I love this, you are so badass. All three of you look rockingly glamourous. As if you don't own a teacup, I had you pegged as an Anglophile?! xxxx
darlink, you could never look twee - you're too fucking roll n roll! I love this outfit - all that electric blue is awesome. I wanna squeeze you!
I like your hard liquor version. :D
You look farking amazing too - all of you lovely bloggers are so inspiring. BTW, I was thinking of you when I saw (for the first time ever) the first episode of Are you Being Served (TV1 on a Friday night). Hope you are having a great week!
LOVE IT. FREAKING LOVE IT. I was just visiting Clare's blog, and saw a preview of the festival of tulle you ladies were enjoying. Damn, but I do not have a tulle skirt! I don't think...no. Definitely don't.
Loved your NAUGHTY take on it. Twee? Never.
You rock, period. No more to say. Blue never looked so good and your beverage of choice is perfect.
Gorgeous again! Love all these tutu's you're all stylin' up. The blue really knocks it up a funky step. Amazing necklace too.
You all have me craving tulle ...though not tea!
Well you definitely passed the no tweeness allowed bit Helga and you look absolutely amazing. And it made me happy to hear that you don't have any tea cups because neither do I, if I drank tea from a tea cup it would need to have a feeding tube attached because I like my tea by the bucketful. xx
You look lovely! Cute teacup too!
Amazing! I always love your photos. So inspiring! Kisses x x x
Girl, you Rock!
xx
Awesome tutu! And even more awesome you drink whisky from a mug!
You are gorgeous in blue! Even in a blue tutu. Twee free.
xoxo
