Hey everyone! It’s Emma here, your local ballet-obsessed fashionista, and with autumn upon us, it’s time to ditch the summer florals and embrace the magic of fall with a tutu twist!
Now, let's be real - the world of ballet fashion can sometimes feel like a whirlwind of tutus, tights and leotards. But don't worry! There’s so much fun to be had styling up a storm, even when it’s chilly outside.
Here at Emma's Ballet Boutique (yes, I really need to get myself a storefront, wouldn't that be amazing!), we're going to explore the delightful possibilities of Tutu Fashion for Fall. From street-chic street style to a glamorous evening out, I’ll share my top tips for making tutu-inspired looks sing in this beautiful season. 🍁
*First up, let’s talk colour… A Pop of Pink to Brighten Up the Day 🎀 *
When you think of autumn, you might picture terracotta, crimson, gold - but don't underestimate the power of pink! It adds a cheerful pop that can instantly elevate an outfit. Imagine a fluffy pink tutu layered over a cosy knitted jumper with a long faux fur coat. Throw on some cute boots and a statement pink beanie. * Boom! * Instant Fall style statement.
You can also play with shades: Think dusty rose, peach, or even a beautiful blush pink, to match the subtle warmth of autumn leaves.
Layers - the Key to Cozy Autumnal Tutu Style 🧶
Don't be afraid to layer! You’ll find me wearing multiple layers every chance I get. It allows you to easily change your look as the weather shifts (as it always does in Bangor!) .
Start with your basic essentials - your ballet leotard or bodysuit, a comfy tee, a favourite pair of leggings, or even a chic dress.
From there, you can add a lightweight tulle skirt (hello, dreamy autumnal tutu!) for a playful touch. A cropped cardigan or an oversized sweater draped over the shoulders can add texture and make your outfit even more comfy. And if it's cold? Go for a full-on tutu layer, and don’t be afraid to pair it with boots, ankle boots, or stylish flats. 👢
*From Bangor by Day, To Bangor by Night: Ditch the Bag and Go for a Tutu-tastic Evening *
Think elegance, think ethereal, think *ballet fashion * with a touch of autumnal chic!
The great thing about a tutu is that it instantly adds a touch of whimsy and elegance. Dress it up for an evening out! Pick a midi length tulle skirt, paired with a sleek black turtleneck, some glittering accessories, and a statement clutch (perhaps a velvety bag with gold chain accents - chefs kiss!).
Think about the Occasion and Don't be Afraid to Add a Little Sparkle✨
Let’s face it, we all love a bit of shimmer. Embrace the magic of autumn with a sparkly top, some glitter shoes, or a statement gold necklace, paired with your classic ballet style.
*And finally, don't be afraid to break the rules. *
Have some fun with textures! Combine chunky knits with sheer tulles for an unexpected clash. Layer up with a faux fur vest or jacket, experiment with leather, lace - anything goes!
