Disco Tutu Tuesday 250181

Arnold Tutu Tuesday - a #tututuesday triumph
Okay, let’s be honest – the past few weeks have been *tough* (and not just because of my ongoing quest to find the perfect pink feather boa to *really* top off my #tututuesday ensemble). Work, life, the dreaded, unpredictable weather – it’s all been a bit of a chore, I’m not gonna lie. But guess what? Nothing, *nothing*, can bring me down quite like a #tututuesday in Arnold.
And this week, my fellow tutu enthusiasts, it was extra special. The vibe was electric. Arnold, usually known for its quaint charm and, shall we say, “non-existent” fashion scene (I mean, have you seen the *shoes*!), transformed into a swirling, sequin-studded wonderland of #discotutu glory. Let’s talk about the outfits!
We had every imaginable tutu style on display. Think billowing tulle skirts (the more layers, the better!), playful bubblegum pink ballet tutus with an oh-so-vintage vibe, and a handful of those more *experimental* “street-style” numbers that definitely had folks questioning whether they were seeing a modern art exhibition or a tutu gathering. (No judgment here, though – individuality is a beautiful thing, and sometimes that means *really* owning a neon green feather boa and rocking it with panache!).
Speaking of feather boas… let’s get this out of the way – every #tututuesday has one, it's *tradition*. (Let's just call it a feather boa tax for entry!). This time around, we were blessed with a cornucopia of plumage – every colour imaginable, lengths from dainty to positively extravagant. I even spotted a few ladies *brave* enough to pair theirs with neon pink sparkly leg warmers (you know, because, *why not*!).
The whole scene was reminiscent of that classic, *iconic* shot of Donna Summer on the cover of *Love To Love You Baby*. (Anyone else seeing this in their minds *right* now?). I'm talking slinky polyester, platform boots with a disco ball shimmer, and more glittery sequins than you can shake a feather boa at. You can even smell the musk oil (no judgment!), and hear the funky bass lines pulsing through the air.
The real *piece de résistance*, however, had to be the *Disco Snail*. Now, picture this: a regular snail – you know, those little guys you see lurking in your garden, leaving those little trails everywhere – only instead of a drab brown shell, this snail was shimmering with iridescent glitter. It was literally *living* the #discosnail lifestyle. And no, this wasn't some *fake* social media creation; this snail, this actual disco champion, was *literally* just crawling around on the pavement. This, dear reader, was the *epitome* of Arnold #tututuesday.
There was something about the sight of this *glitter-coated mollusk* that just epitomized the spirit of the day – playful, spontaneous, and undeniably fun. If a humble snail can embrace disco-inspired attire, so can we. So, let’s raise a glass of (disco-infused) lemonade to all the brave, glittering souls of Arnold #tututuesday, and their disco snail. Here’s to next week’s grand event – let's make it *bigger*, bolder, and *more* glittery than ever. See you there!

A Tutu Tuesday To Remember: #tututuesday #discotutu #arnold * **Pink Is The Colour Of The Day** Let's just get this out of the way - I am **obsessed** with pink! If it has a shimmer or a sparkle, even better. This Tuesday I went all out in a pink sequined bubble tutu and my **best** feather boa. * **Fashion In Arnold** Look, Arnold isn't exactly known for its fashion-forward streets - there's something to be said about understated sophistication, I guess? But #tututuesday completely changed the landscape of this cute little town - people were out in full force, strutting their stuff in the most colourful, and yes, sparkly ensembles. It really was something! * **Tutu Trends** Speaking of #tututuesday fashion: the **tutu** was, without a doubt, the star of the show! There were some real fashion-forward folks on the streets this week. From billowing tulle skirts in the most *extra* of fabrics (think sparkly sequins and, like, fluffy pink feathers!), to more modest pink ballet-style tutus with vintage-inspired embellishments (the bows! I died! ), it was an absolute triumph. * **Let's Be Honest... It's About The Bo*s!* I mentioned it earlier, but every single person rocking a tutu needs a matching boa - there's no exception to the rule, ladies. My boa this week had glitter, rhinestones and feathers. It added an element of *pizzazz* to any outfit - there were boas for everyone, big, small, long, short - just as flamboyant as the tutu's they were styled with! * **The #Discosnail - My New Hero** This little snail? He (or she, we never figured it out!) was the epitome of #tututuesday energy. Seriously, I had to see it to believe it: there, on the pavement, right in front of the ice cream parlor (where everyone always stops for an after-tutu treat) was a normal-looking garden snail *except* he (or she, see, we are really invested in this!) was covered with shimmery rainbow glitter. No joke, and no one was sure how it happened (that’s a question for the ages!), but *it* completely brought all the #tututuesday joy and sass we could imagine.
Let’s face it, we’ve all needed a bit of a pick-me-up in this season of rain clouds and post-holiday blues (where *are* all those Christmas lights, anyway? *Sob*!). If a sparkly, boa-clad snail can become a disco icon, maybe it's time we take a few cues from the #discosnail and embrace a bit more sparkle in our lives too. See you next #tututuesday, my darlings.
