Hello darlings! Welcome back to another whirlwind Tutu Tuesday, straight from the pages of my pink-hued time travel diary. This week, we're jetting back to December 20th, 1994, the day the world (well, at least the ballet world) was totally rocking a certain trend...
Can you guess what it is? Think ... bright, bold, and totally 90s! 😉
That's right, we're talking about neon colours! Neon pink tutus? You betcha! Neon green? Absolutely! Neon yellow? Oh darling, why not! Remember, my dearest tutu enthusiasts, the 90s was all about pushing the boundaries and expressing your individuality. And that included those show-stopping, eye-catching colours on stage!
Speaking of shows, let's delve into what was making waves in the ballet world on this specific date:
Ballet Bells Are Ringing! 🔔The Royal Ballet in London, oh the glamour! They were wrapping up a production of "The Sleeping Beauty," a timeless classic, always a hit with the crowds! Imagine the magnificent, shimmering costumes, the enchanting choreography, it's a tutu lover's dream! I'm practically teleporting there right now as I write this! ✨
*Over in the States, American Ballet Theatre was giving *"Swan Lake" * a magical showing. * Another classic, always breathtaking in its beauty. Those tutus are truly an inspiration! 🦢
But it's not all about the big ballet companies, dear readers! On this day, hundreds of dance schools, ballet studios, and small community performances were bringing joy to audiences all over the world. Every pirouette, every plié, is a reminder of the magic of dance. 💃
Okay, let's talk about that look... Remember the 90s? Those extra-long leg warmers teamed with the shortest of short shorts, a bright crop top and a sprinkle of chunky trainers? This was the style for any ballet enthusiast who wasn't afraid to be bold and express their love for dancing, outside the confines of the studio! I was living in this look in Derbyshire back in the day!
And remember, those pastel hues! A sweet touch, perhaps even with a dash of a pink tutu for that perfect ensemble! Honestly, I'm starting to feel nostalgic... Perhaps I need to pack a mini-me time machine and go back for a dance session in these outfits, just for fun! 😅
Tip: Remember, we can bring back 90s trends, but we do it our own way! We might add a whimsical scarf here, a sparkly headband there, and we'll top it off with a stylish pink tutu of course! Because we always have fun with it. It's about loving yourself and showing the world that we’re in love with our favourite hobby. We do it all with a little bit of style and a lot of love for the art of dance. ❤️
Travel Tips for the Tutu-Loving Time Traveller 🚂While my journey this week brought me back to 1994, I’m already looking forward to my next time travel adventure! My recent journeys have inspired some great fashion tips, like remembering that the perfect travelling companion is a well-chosen, stylish handbag. Just think practical, think classy, think something that can carry everything you need for a time travelling adventure!
I know you're all wondering, "But Emma, how do you travel through time?" Well, my secret's not entirely a secret, dear reader. I don't want to give away all my secrets, but let's just say the ballet performances that make up my income play a pivotal part in this time-travelling phenomenon!
Let's keep the discussion going in the comments below! Tell me what your favourite looks from the 90s were! And let's all make a pledge to rock our own Tutu Tuesdays, whether you’re back in 1994 or stepping out in 2023! Because pink is power and dancing is joy.
