Stratford Upon Avon: Tutu Tuesday Takes Over!
Okay, so picture this: sunshine, laughter, and a sea of pink. No, this isn't a fairytale, it's #tututuesday in Stratford-upon-Avon, and it's seriously dreamy! The vibe? Totally disco. Think bell bottoms, flares, platform shoes, and sequins galore - and obviously, the essential #discotutu.
As a dancer, there's nothing more exciting than seeing my fellow twirling enthusiasts rocking their tutus with such gusto! The variety is amazing, too: From the classic romantic tutu to the bold and contemporary ones, even some beautifully handmade ones with floral accents, each one adds its own splash of sparkle to the streets.
It's all about embracing that "I can dance anytime, anywhere" spirit. The locals were super up for it, joining in with a few moves here and there. The air buzzed with energy, reminding me of a 70's disco, but with a modern, whimsical twist.
Here's a sneak peek into what made this Tutu Tuesday a complete hit:
- The pink power! You couldn't miss it: bright, beautiful shades of pink splashed across every tutu. Honestly, I think my eyes went a little sparkly just looking at it! There were some bold, candy-pink tutues which made the perfect contrast against vintage jeans and t-shirts, and others were more soft, with a powdery pink which flowed so beautifully.
- Dancing queens and kings! I couldn't resist joining the fun, and boy did everyone have the moves! A group of mums decided to dance in a little line with their daughters - it was so cute, I nearly cried! We had couples rocking the disco, even some dog walkers with their pups strutting their stuff in tutus too!
- Disco Dolphin's Delight! Did you know there's a whole #discodolphin vibe happening? Yes, seriously. Someone even made a special sparkly tutu with dolphins dancing on it, and let's just say, it got all the attention. It perfectly sums up the mood – playful, colourful, and just plain fun.
You've got to hand it to the people of Stratford, they really know how to throw a fabulous party. It was definitely a reminder that we don't need a fancy stage or an elaborate setting to enjoy the joy of movement and a little dose of magic. It was simple, joyous, and a wonderful reminder that the magic of #tututuesday can truly brighten up your day. So, until next time...
Stay twirly!
