Tutu Tuesday in Ashington: A Celebration of Sparkle and Whirl

It's Tuesday, which can only mean one thing – #Tutuesday, of course! As a ballet dancer and a self-proclaimed lover of all things sparkly and pink, I’m always on the lookout for the perfect tutu to celebrate this special day. But, how to make it even more fab? Why, add a dash of disco flair, of course! Today's theme: #DiscoTutu!

I woke up with a disco beat thumping in my heart, so I knew my #Tutuesday outfit had to be one to truly get the party started. It’s always fun to browse the vast world of tutus, so I took a virtual trip down the sartorial rabbit hole, admiring everything from the classic, romantic tutu to the whimsical, billowing, multi-layered creations.

This week’s tutu picks:

  • The ‘Boho Bloom’ tutu, a breezy delight of layers and delicate netting in a pastel pink shade, perfect for waltzing through fields of daisies – or just the local supermarket, which, let's be honest, can feel like a wild jungle on a Tuesday morning!
  • The ‘Glam-tastic’ tutu, this little number oozes retro chic with shimmering silver fabric, bold fringe and a sequined trim, making you feel like you’ve stepped straight out of a Studio 54 flashback.
  • The ‘Disco Snail’ tutu. You just gotta love a #discosnail, the cutest trend of the season – think shell shapes and iridescent finishes.

I opted for the ‘Glam-tastic’ today, pairing it with a bright pink, sequined top and some platform heels (no ballet shoes on a #Tutuesday, obviously!) . And I’m feeling pretty fabulous, as any self-respecting #discodiva should. I can’t wait to sashay through Ashington town center – who knows what danceable shenanigans we'll get up to?! Maybe even some "Boogie Wonderland" at the bus stop!

But it's not just about the look – it’s about celebrating that little spark of fun in the middle of the week. Life can feel like one big, chaotic waltz sometimes, so it's good to have something frivolous to look forward to, and #Tutuesday, my friends, is a great starting point. I dare you to get on board with your own interpretation! It’s about letting your personality shine – just like my glitter-bomb, sequined outfit. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a disco ball to polish!
