Tutu Tuesday in Leicester: A Celebration of All Things Frilly and Fabulous
Hey there, fashionistas! Itās your girl, Lily, back with another blog post about all things fashion, and this week, weāre diving headfirst into the most fabulous day of the week: Tutu Tuesday!
As you know, my love for all things tutu runs deep. From the classic, romantic, and airy tulle tutus of Swan Lake, to the short and sassy ones that make your legs look miles long, I believe every dancer and every fashion lover should own at least one tutu. And what better day to celebrate this magnificent garment than Tuesday?
This Tuesday, Leicesterās city centre was buzzing with tutus and a delightful sense of āletās get sparklyā. The streets were a rainbow of colour with people of all ages embracing the theme. From delicate pastel tutus that twirled beautifully to bright pink numbers that popped with confidence, it was a feast for the eyes!
So, what's the big deal with Tutu Tuesday? Iāll tell you why:
- It's an opportunity to express your individuality and have fun with fashion.
- It's a chance to embrace the joy of dancing and to feel a little bit glamorous, even if itās just for a day.
- It reminds us to find the inner ballerina within ourselves, the part of us that enjoys swirling, spinning and shimmering in an outfit that lets us feel fabulous!
Disco Tutus: A Celebration of Sparkle
This weekās tutu theme was "Disco Tutus". Oh, my, did we deliver! The Disco Snail (you can't go to a #discotutuesday without spotting a Disco Snail!), an absolute icon on Leicesterās nightlife scene, even showed up in a spectacular sequin-encrusted number! Let's face it: a sequinned tutu will transform any Tuesday from blah to dazzling.
From the shimmery metallic fabrics to the bold fringe and feathers, the Disco Tutu captures the playful spirit of the 70s, adding an extra sprinkle of glamour to our daily outfits. If you're a fan of sparkle, then you have to check out the Disco Tutu trend!
How to style a Tutu for a Day of #Tututuesday
Donāt be intimidated, styling a tutu isnāt just for the ballet class. There are many ways you can integrate it into your everyday wardrobe. You can pair a Tutu with:
- A basic black turtleneck for a stylish contrast
- A chic leather jacket to toughen it up
- A graphic tee and denim jacket for a casual cool look
- A blazer for a touch of sophistication.
You can also get playful with accessories such as:
- statement earrings
- bold necklaces
- a bright clutch
Remember, the key is to embrace your own style. No matter what your taste is, there's a tutu out there for you.
