This skirt is amazing!  I bought to wear to a night run and received so many compliments!  I actually worked with the seller (who was wonderful) to have it altered to be a high/lo option and then I strung colored lights inside the skirt using safety pins so the skirt was constantly lit up with different colors throughout the night.  The skirt itself was light enough to run in (I ran 3 miles), but also had enough heft to it so it wasn't bogged down by the lights.  I was even able to pin the light's remote control to the band of the skirt, so perfect in every way.  I would say even if you don't think you need a tulle skirt...you actually do!  Don't be afraid to take your fashion to the next level...you won't regret it!
