Coventry’s Tutu Tuesday: A Dancefloor Dream in Pink
Hey lovelies, it’s your girl, Ella, back with another hot fashion update! This week, Coventry is all about embracing the pinkest, most dazzlingly fabulous Tutu Tuesday imaginable. Forget beige and bland, darling - it's time to unleash your inner disco diva!
As you know, I'm a sucker for a good tutu. They're whimsical, dramatic, and utterly iconic. And when you add a bit of pink and disco vibes, well, let's just say my heart skips a beat faster than a cha-cha.
But hold your horses! Tutu Tuesday isn't just about waltzing around in your standard poofy ballerina tutu. This trend is all about celebrating the diversity and style of tutu-wearing across the ages, from classic to contemporary.
What to wear?
- Classic tutu: A timeless look, think the traditional ballerina shape - short, fluffy, and super twirly. Pink, obviously, and maybe with some sparkle or sequin details for a bit of extra glam.
- The Tutu Skirt: Less formal than a ballet tutu, but still absolutely fabulous! Perfect for pairing with a tee or blouse, a cute top, and some fab trainers. It’s perfect for day-to-day and adds that extra bit of oomph.
- Layered tutu: A modern twist on the classic, where you layer multiple layers of tulle for an ethereal look. Pink is my go-to colour for layering – maybe with different shades for a subtle gradient effect or keep it a uniform shade for a pop-art look.
- The ‘Disco Snail’ look: The ultimate party tutu! Think shimmering fabric, feather embellishments, and even a bit of metallic sparkle for good measure. The perfect finishing touch to your most outrageous disco ensemble.
Where to find the perfect tutu?
I love hunting down pre-loved tutus at charity shops and vintage stores in Coventry! They always have hidden gems tucked away. If you're after something brand new, try online boutiques or specialty dance stores, although you're bound to have more success at independent boutiques, with their quirky styles. And of course, remember: if you can't find it, DIY is your best friend! You can find gorgeous, affordable tutus ready for some creative flair at many DIY and fabric shops. Get crafty!
Top tips for styling your tutu:
Tutu Tuesday in Coventry is your opportunity to play around! No matter your style, there's a tutu out there for you, from demure to extravagant.
- Embrace confidence: Own it! It’s not about perfection, it’s about self-expression. If you love the way you look in a tutu, your confidence will shine!
- Keep it colourful! Pair a pink tutu with different shades of pink to complement each other or embrace an eye-catching colour contrast with a striking shade of blue or green.
- Add your personal touch! Throw on a sparkly bag, bright tights, some dramatic jewellery or quirky boots to complete your fabulous ensemble!
- Don't forget the glitter! A touch of glitter goes a long way. And don't be shy, apply with gusto, it’s Tutu Tuesday after all!
