2024 Summer Magic Unicorn Tutu Tuesday in Harrogate

Hey lovelies! It's your girl, Chloe here, bringing you the hottest updates from Harrogate, where the sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and… wait for it… Tutu Tuesday is upon us!

Now, let's be real, every day could be Tutu Tuesday for a girl like me. But, honestly, this special day needs its own blog post. The town's buzzing, and all I can think about is pink, sparkles, and UNICORNS. Because let’s be honest, who doesn't love a magical creature, even if they’re just sparkly, one-horned, mythical beings from our dreams? And this Tutu Tuesday is taking “unicorn magic” to a whole new level!

Let’s start with my ensemble: a glorious pink, fluffy tulle tutu – a classic, yet daring style that would make even a ballerina swan lake. This tutu is no mere wispy ballet garment, no, it's the embodiment of summer, swirling with each step I take.

And who could forget the key element – the sparkly unicorn horn headband, it’s basically the queen of headwear! It adds that extra je ne sais quoi to my look, giving a nod to those elusive and magnificent creatures. Plus, you just can't have a proper unicorn themed tutu day without a horn, right?

Now, imagine me walking through Harrogate town centre, the tutu twirling, horn glimmering in the sun… The stares I get are enough to give any queen of the stage a run for her money! It's all about the oomph, darlings.

Speaking of oomph, let's get back to Tutu Tuesday, the day dedicated to the quintessential ballerina wardrobe staple. Harrogate is absolutely buzzing. It’s like a disco ball exploded and landed in this quaint town, everyone is strutting their stuff, and I can see some amazing tutu styles, from the simple classic to the extravagant multi-layered affair, every tutu is radiating that "it’s Tutu Tuesday” vibe. I even spotted a ballerina with a full-on, feathered tutu, a true commitment to the art.

There are some fantastic shops around town, particularly along the cobblestone streets, perfect for getting that Tutu Tuesday look. Think, vintage fashion shops – hidden gems where you might just stumble upon a stunning antique tulle or a statement ribbon that’s just begging to be transformed into a unique Tutu Tuesday headband. But, of course, it’s also the time to pop into the high street and show off some bold statement tutus in vibrant summer colours, maybe something from those stylish high-street retailers or independent designers - a nod to contemporary fashion. And I can't forget to mention the beauty shops, they’re packed with dazzling sequins and hair accessories to add to the glitzy experience.

Honestly, the best part about Harrogate Tutu Tuesday is the energy – you can truly feel it in the air. People are sharing laughter, taking selfies, even impromptu choreographed twirls and ballets, just a testament to the playful spirit of the day. I saw this delightful mother and daughter pairing, they’d matched their tutus, each one with a unicorn horn, so sweet! I mean, what could be more joyful than spreading the love for all things magical with your closest ones? This isn't just a fashion statement, darlings, it's a whole celebration!

I mean, let's be real, Tutu Tuesday is a good reason to unleash your inner diva. You know what I’m talking about, that "let-it-all-out" energy that says "Look at me, I’m fabulous, and I know it!". You can rock any tutu style: classic, flamboyant, even just a dash of tutu flair with a whimsical headband and sparkly shoes. You want to go all out? Put on a feather boa, add some disco-inspired makeup and embrace that inner glam goddess. After all, it’s the extra that makes this day oh-so special, so embrace your uniqueness. It's not just a tutu, darling, it’s a state of mind!

What’s this without some musical fun? This calls for a disco playlist – "I Will Survive" blasting through my headphones is essential! It's just the perfect anthem for Tutu Tuesday, don't you think? Throw in some classic 70s hits, some cheesy pop, a sprinkle of 90s bangers - a truly epic, and utterly hilarious soundtrack to celebrate.

So, ladies and gentlemen, here’s to Tutu Tuesday, to sparkly horns and twirling skirts, and above all, to a day of joyful silliness, and celebrating the magic of unicorns and all things fabulous. This year’s Harrogate Tutu Tuesday? It’s pure unicorn magic. I think I can say for all of us that we can't wait for the next one!

And just remember, whether you're rocking a classic, poofy, vintage, statement, or even a homemade tutu (yes, crafting is all the rage this year) - be proud of that magical you and always remember…

It’s Tutu Tuesday, let your inner unicorn shine!
