Croydon's Tutu Tuesday - A Day to Ditch the Heels and Dance!

So, you know me, I'm all about embracing the whimsical and fun side of fashion. I’m a bit obsessed with tutus, and as you probably know from my previous posts, I live for those classic tutus - the full romantic tulle skirts, the whimsical layered tulle with tiny frills, the poofy multi-layered styles with the cute elastic waistband, the sparkly ones! Honestly, you just can’t beat a great tutu.

That's why I'm so excited to tell you about a new trend sweeping the streets of Croydon. It's called Tutu Tuesday - a day where everyone can let their inner ballerina shine and embrace the power of the tutu!

Let's face it, there's something liberating and fabulous about wearing a tutu. It’s like you're immediately transported to a world of dance, sparkles, and pure joy. Forget your jeans and leggings, for one day a week, Croydon gets a whole lot more glamorous.

On Tutu Tuesday, I saw an array of tutus: fluffy, pastel pink with lace trimming, frilly with bold colour blocks, sassy red sequinned and a whole host of classic tutu styles. I also spotted the ultimate Disco Snail, sporting a bright pink tutu with tiny sparkly diamantés and matching disco platform shoes!

Imagine a street packed with a symphony of colors, from pastel pink and lavender to vibrant oranges and blues. Add to that a splash of disco music, a few twirls, and a lot of smiles and laughter, and you have a real fashion explosion.

Here are some ways you can embrace your inner ballerina and participate in Tutu Tuesday:

  • Grab your tutu, be it a fluffy one, a short classic style or a multi-layered number and head into Croydon, but prepare for some stares and laughter as you go!
  • For maximum impact, team up with friends and spread the word - start a mini dance-off on the high street!
  • Channel your inner dancing diva and strut your stuff in a sequined disco outfit for an ultimate fabulous look!
  • Don't be shy to let your creativity run wild! Dress it up or down with your own unique twist – why not try a classic tutu with a statement tee?
  • Use the hashtag #Tututuesday so everyone can see the amazing fashion in Croydon, tag me in your photos - I’m sure I’ll find you there!

I'm all about embracing your individuality and letting your style shine. And honestly, is there a better way to express yourself than in a tutu? And if you don't own a tutu, why not treat yourself to one! And I reckon if you need inspiration - a search on #Tututuesday will reveal a fabulous collection of tutu-licious inspiration.

But remember - the point isn’t the tutu itself; it’s the joy of embracing the fashion trend and feeling a sense of liberation through expressing your style and spreading joy and a little bit of dance-floor energy throughout Croydon. #tututuesday
