Tutu Tuesday in Stourbridge

Hello my darlings! It’s your girl, Ella, back with another fab fashion post. And guess what? It’s #tututuesday!

Now, I know what you’re thinking. Tutu Tuesday? It sounds like something straight out of a disco fever dream, doesn’t it? But trust me, my dears, it’s so much more than that. It’s a movement, a revolution, a chance to unleash your inner ballerina, even if the only stage you've graced is the one in your living room.

Now, if you’ve never seen a tutu in person, my lovelies, they are a sight to behold. Imagine layers and layers of tulle, fluttering and twirling in the wind. The kind of stuff that makes even the most hardened cynic want to dance under the disco ball. But #tututuesday is about more than just tutus, it's about attitude. It's about saying “screw the naysayers” and embrace the power of pink! Yes, you heard right! We’re talking about all shades of pink. Fuschia, bubblegum, salmon pink - if it makes you feel fierce, you’ve got my vote!

Speaking of pink, you all know I love a bit of pink myself! My favourite pink tutu has to be my gorgeous pink satin-lined, romantic tutu with frilled edges, so very 1950s, you know. A classic that looks gorgeous with a bright red satin belt. It's perfect for a twirl on the dance floor #tututuesday after a night at the ballet, even better when followed up by a glass of champagne or a glass of Bellini if you’re feeling fancy.

Tutu Style Tips

  • Now, my little ballerinas, you might be wondering what kind of tutu is the right one for you. I’ve got your back! Here’s a quick rundown of the most popular styles
  • Romantic Tutus are, as the name suggests, all about soft, flowing layers, and they’re super flattering for almost every shape and size. The ideal option for a bit of light #discodolphin action!
  • Classical Tutus These are the iconic ballerina styles with a shorter, fitted silhouette. I mean, they are fabulous, but if we're talking #tututuesday you could just go full glam with a long flowing tutu! You’ll need a good high-heel in this number too! (Maybe a disco-ball embellished pair!
  • Contemporary Tutus My ultimate #tututuesday faves! They're bold and exciting. Some people say that Contemporary Tutus don't fit with #tututuesday. Rubbish! I think they are the most modern and best! They've often got a different colour tulle layered under the main layer and are more fluid in their construction!

And while the #tututuesday movement is all about expressing yourself through fashion, we can't forget about the importance of embracing individuality. My dear girls, if a tutu is just not your vibe, don't let that hold you back from joining in the fun. A disco-inspired skirt is the perfect option if you are less keen on the whole tutu thing!

Whatever your style, the key to pulling off #tututuesday is confidence and a whole lotta sass! Don’t be afraid to go big, go bold! Be a walking #discodolphin and dance the night away on the #tututuesday streets of Stourbridge!
