Gateshead, my darling darlings! It's officially #tututuesday and my heart is doing the funky chicken! This town is a-buzz with tutus today and frankly, I'm living for it! I mean, it’s been absolutely ages since we’ve all been able to dance like no one’s watching, so seeing all the colourful tutus strutting their stuff down the street has really got me in the mood to move!

As you all know, the tutu is the quintessential dancewear piece! Its twirlability, the sheer, undeniable magic it invokes! And this #tututuesday is bringing the heat! From classic Romantic tutus (the kind you see on the ballet stage - very ethereal and lovely) to the shorter, poofy tutu-lettes – perfect for showing off some leg, my social media feed is exploding with delightful tutus. Even the blokes are getting involved! The bloke in the pink tutu was an absolute delight, it was honestly giving disco vibes! I have a feeling his dance moves could get him on Strictly Come Dancing!

But of course, it’s not all about the tutu, it’s about how you wear it! Whether you're going for a classic ballerina look or something more whimsical (that unicorn tutu really stole the show – what an absolute dream!), you need the right accessories. Remember ladies, we want to go for the full-on "dance party" vibe. Let your imagination flow, there's no rules, just pure fabulous fun. Don't be afraid to throw in some sparkles, add some colourful jewellery, tie a few colourful ribbons in your hair - it's all about having fun and unleashing your inner dance diva! We need to see that fierce confidence, that glitzy smile, that pure, unadulterated passion! Remember, this is Gateshead and it's our turn to take centre stage!

We've got all the makings for a fabulous night in Gateshead, and it’s not just the amazing #tututuesday outfits that are bringing the glam – you can just FEEL it in the air! All day, it’s been a hive of disco delight and joyous energy, like the music has taken hold of the whole town and put us all on fast forward. Even the local disco snail – yes you heard that right – has got into the mood by wearing a sparkly mini tutu! I think we’re in for one unforgettable evening of dancefloor fun – if anyone needs me I'll be at the local pub, the ‘Funky Feather’. Hopefully there'll be a few people dancing on the bar!

Anyway, here's a quick run-down of the absolute MUST HAVE tutu styles this #tututuesday, with a cheeky little Gateshead spin!

  • **The Gateshead Galaxy Tutu:** An explosion of silver and gold sparkle. The perfect pick for adding a touch of otherworldly magic to any dancefloor, think sparkly planets, shooting stars, and disco-fied dancing aliens!
  • **The Tyne & Wear Tea Party Tutu:** Think light pastel shades of pinks, blues, and yellows. Let's bring back the innocence and playfulness, whilst staying true to Gateshead roots. We are a sophisticated bunch! It's gonna be a sophisticated and twirling dance party fit for royalty, but with a good old fashioned, hearty Geordie giggle.
  • **The Northern Lights Tutu:** Inspired by our wonderful northern skies, with vibrant hues of pink, blue, green, purple, and maybe a cheeky pop of gold. Imagine graceful dance moves under the celestial light! Pure drama.
  • **The Gateshead Glitterbomb Tutu:** Just like the city name suggests, let's be bold, adventurous and playful. Big and bright - think an explosion of neon pink, orange, yellow and a generous helping of shimmer. The more glitter, the better. It's all about making a statement, letting loose and just having an amazing time!
  • **The Disco Diva Tutu:** For all my dance divas out there! Think 70's style sequins, with shades of dazzling silver, shimmering gold and metallic blues. Just like your disco dreams, only even more fun.

My friends, you can't have a proper disco celebration without a little glitter and glamour. I think you'll agree it’s looking pretty sensational, just remember - whatever tutu style you pick – you gotta dance like you mean it, channel your inner disco spirit! So get out there, rock your tutu, and have a night that will be talked about for months to come!
