Tutu Tuesday in West Bridgford: A Dance of Disco Dolphins

Okay, so you’ve heard of ‘disco fever’? Well, brace yourselves, because #tututuesday has officially swept across West Bridgford, and let me tell you, it’s even more infectious than that groovy 70s sound! You see, being a ballet dancer is more than pirouettes and perfect pliés - it’s a lifestyle. It’s about channeling your inner sparkle, and honestly, what better way to do that than with a little tutu? And this Tuesday? It was time for the ultimate #discotutu showdown.

West Bridgford was all aflutter as the community embraced the Tutu Tuesday challenge. It was the ultimate street style fusion - think sparkly tutus paired with everything from vintage Levi’s to sleek black dresses and even, gasp! a fabulously pink puffer jacket! The whole day felt like one big dance party - imagine the soundtrack of Abba meets Blondie - you get the picture.

Here's what went down. I hit up the bustling heart of West Bridgford, armed with my trusty camera (and my best pink lipstick - because pink is a must for any tutu-loving diva). I couldn’t have asked for a more dazzling day - it was as if everyone in town had taken a tip from my "how to rock a tutu" guide.

I was like a little ballerina butterfly, flitting around, capturing all the fashion-forward moments:

  • Firstly, I spotted the 'Classic Princess Tutu', you know, the kind with the fluffy, tulle skirt that swirls with every move. This one was in a delicate baby pink - like a cotton candy cloud - paired with a black crop top. Now, that’s my kind of fierce.
  • Then, there was the ‘Disco Diva Tutu’, all silver, sparkling, and ready to command the dancefloor. Think shimmering sequins and feathers, and it was totally owning the West Bridgford pavement. #discoforever!
  • The 'Minimalist Mermaid Tutu' made a grand appearance. This was an absolute dream - a streamlined design in a vibrant electric blue - like a majestic creature swimming right out of a dream! I had to steal a little inspiration for my next tutu-look. It was pure perfection.
  • But the ‘Pink Power Tutu’ truly took the crown. Picture this - a tutu bursting with a playful mix of hot pink, fuchsia and neon pink, with little tulle bows dangling everywhere. This was tutu on fleek, people! Honestly, you couldn’t miss this vision of sartorial joy, a delightful dance-floor dream made reality!

The best thing about #tututuesday, aside from the stunning tutus, is that it brought everyone together in West Bridgford. There was a sense of playful unity that simply made the day a complete delight. We weren’t just watching each other, we were inspiring one another to unleash our inner divas - whether that was a shimmering, sequined masterpiece or a subtle nod to the ballerina vibe with a touch of tulle, we were all twirling and embracing that playful side of life.

Speaking of inspiring, did I tell you about the 'Disco Dolphin'? That's my newest hashtag, inspired by a young lad wearing his trusty pink tutu paired with a 'disco dolphin' T-shirt (yes, you read that right). This adorable fusion of a whimsical ocean creature and dance-floor vibes really took #tututuesday to a whole new level! I mean, what says fun, funky and fearless more than a dolphin sporting a glitzy dance outfit, right?

It was more than just tutus; it was a movement of confidence, playfulness and a love of all things fun and unique. Tutu Tuesday showed us that embracing our individuality is what makes fashion truly exciting, and who knows? Maybe West Bridgford will have a ‘disco dolphin’ themed carnival next year. Now that would be a sight!

This isn’t your typical Tuesday - This is #tututuesday! I don't know about you, but I’m already itching for the next dance-worthy occasion. So, are you ready to join the #discotutu revolution? Don your best twirling garment, embrace the music of the 70s and get ready to dance like nobody's watching… (though I recommend posting some pictures because #tututuesday is all about the fabulous pics, remember?).
