Alright, my fellow tutu enthusiasts and unicorn aficionados, gather round! It's officially Tutu Tuesday in Westminster, and let me tell you, the streets are shimmering with a rainbow-hued glow, courtesy of a magical, glittery explosion of tutus. I mean, we're talking a sea of tulle, feathers, and enough sparkle to make a disco ball jealous, and guess who's right in the thick of it? This gal, ready to unleash her inner fairy, unicorn-riding princess.
This week, the tutu trend has hit Westminster like a lightning bolt from the rainbow-coloured sky. You can't walk a single block without spotting at least three girls rocking different tutu styles. There's the classic, short, fluffy number, the perfect complement to your vintage-inspired summer look, giving you a playful air that's anything but childish. Then we have the billowing, multi-layered tulle tutus, straight out of a fairy tale, ready to sweep you away on a magical adventure, preferably on the back of a majestic unicorn (if you're lucky, one that has already had its afternoon nap!). Don't forget the elegant, longer tulle skirt, perfect for a night out in town. With its flowy elegance, it channels a more mature ballet dancer vibe - chic, effortless, and undeniably dazzling.
Of course, the pièce de résistance, the real "wow" factor of this Tutu Tuesday, are the unicorn tutus. These shimmering masterpieces are practically works of art. They combine the classic tutu silhouette with dazzling glitter, rainbow colours, and oh yes, let's not forget the unicorn motif itself! Imagine flowing layers of pink and purple tulle, decorated with sparkly silver sequins, finished with a whimsical unicorn horn adorning the waist. Now you're getting the picture, right? I'm pretty sure the locals have officially crowned the unicorn tutu as the king of Tutu Tuesday in Westminster.
The day started with a magical unicorn-themed picnic in Hyde Park, all rainbows, sparkling glitter, and good vibes. We sipped iced pink lemonade, chatted about the latest ballet news, and of course, showcased our stunning tutu outfits. It was all about embracing our inner fairy-princess. Imagine the scene – pastel blankets laid out under the summer sun, vibrant bouquets of flowers, and a swarm of ladies in a vibrant tapestry of pink, purple, silver and sunshine yellow tutus. This, my dear readers, was pure Tutu Tuesday bliss!
Later in the afternoon, the party shifted to the bustling market stalls along the banks of the Thames, which felt as vibrant as a disco ball in the sunshine. You know what makes Westminster even better? They have this incredible collection of vintage fashion boutiques bursting at the seams with treasures from bygone eras. I found myself getting lost in the dizzying array of sparkly, colourful items. My mission? Find a vintage sequined jacket to go with my unicorn-themed tulle dream. And did I succeed? Of course! This turquoise-hued stunner from the 80s will be my go-to outfit for any summer party. The good news is, Westminster is a treasure trove of shops and cafes brimming with sparkle and fabulousness, all just waiting to be discovered by a tutu-loving lady.
Later, we were joined by an incredible street artist who painted breathtaking murals on the sides of the local buildings, using our Tutu Tuesday as the inspiration for her art! The images were a burst of joy - dancing ladies, graceful figures leaping over swirling colours, rainbows, and you guessed it – unicorns, lots of sparkly unicorns. She was a true magician with a paintbrush.
But the magic wasn't just confined to the streets. As evening approached, the fun continued at a pop-up rooftop bar, bathed in the soft, shimmering light of the setting sun. We sipped our cocktails, listened to classic disco beats, and celebrated the incredible spirit of Tutu Tuesday in Westminster. It was a whirlwind of colours, sparkles, laughter, and pure joy. I dare say we were quite the sight!
Oh, and I almost forgot, did I mention the unicorns? There were, of course, unicorns galore – or rather, unicorn-themed accessories! I saw stunning unicorn headbands, dazzling unicorn-print tote bags, and even adorable unicorn earrings sparkling under the sun.
As the last rays of the sun began to set, it was time to pack it in, but it felt like just the beginning of something magical. Tutu Tuesday in Westminster had proven itself as much more than a day; it was an experience – a dazzling spectacle of self-expression, fun, and of course, rainbows, sparkles, and unicorns. If you happen to be in Westminster next week, don’t just sit there - Embrace the trend, grab your favourite tutu, and let's get ready to dance, darling!
