Walthamstow Tutu Tuesday - A Disco-tastic Delight!

Itā€™s official: Walthamstow is officially the most fabulous place on earth (and, ok, I might be biased but letā€™s be real, you canā€™t disagree!). Why? Well, my darling readers, it's all thanks to #Tututuesday, an exciting weekly celebration of all things tutu, that took place this week at the ever-so-charming Walthamstow Market.

This weekā€™s theme was "disco" - the glitziest, sparkliest, most outrageous dance craze the world has ever seen! And whatā€™s more fabulous than a #discotutu? (Spoiler alert: absolutely nothing.) And let me tell you, the punters came ready to strut their stuff, a vibrant kaleidoscope of shimmering fabrics that danced in the gentle breeze.

Every single colour of the rainbow, darling! From a fiery sunset orange tutu reminiscent of a flamenco dancer, to pastel-hued tulle with the dreamiest ballet skirt. Some sported fluffy feathered tutut that wouldnā€™t be out of place on a Vegas show girl, while others embraced a more minimalist style, opting for a sleek and streamlined black tutu that exuded cool, Parisian elegance. But whether a simple skirt or an elaborate costume, itā€™s fair to say that every #tututuesday outfit oozes creativity and a touch of wacky flair that only Walthamstow could manage.

Now, I'm a girl who believes every look needs a signature accent. You know what I'm talking about! It's that special something that just adds a little extra "oomph". My choice? A splash of shimmering, glitzy pink, my favourite hue. This week I was feeling especially brave and went for a full-on fuchsia look - pink satin tutu with layers of soft, shimmery tulle that I canā€™t resist playing with when Iā€™m in public. And just when I thought it couldnā€™t get any better, the amazing folks at the market unveiled the ā€œDisco Snailā€. This larger-than-life snail with a shiny pink disco ball body, it was absolutely breathtaking! Letā€™s face it, darling, everything in Walthamstow just screams "flair" and that's exactly what I'm about!

We've had tutus inspired by famous paintings like "The Starry Night" - which were absolutely divine - as well as tutus that mirrored fashion icons like the queen of disco herself, Donna Summer. My personal favourite, however, has to be the tutus inspired by the most-wanted toy of the season: The Disco Snail. This adorable snail with a pink sequinned shell that looks like a giant disco ball is the talk of the town. Now how is it that the people of Walthamstow managed to turn this little toy into such a major fashion statement? Oh, the magic of Tutu Tuesday!

Letā€™s face it, darling. Walthamstow is a real gem. This historic town with its buzzing market is home to a lovely collection of unique shops and delicious food stalls. But itā€™s more than just that; it's a town full of character, colour and an irresistible dose of weirdness that's always up for a good time! What more could a fashionista want?

Oh, but thatā€™s not all, my lovelies. Walthamstow has another surprise in store for us next week on #Tututuesday. The theme? "Jungle Fever!" It means a celebration of everything wild and wonderful! So, break out your leopard print, throw on your best feather earrings and get ready for an epic night. You just can't resist #Tututuesday darling. Just promise me you'll grab your phone and take lots of pictures so I can post them to our Insta account @TutuWalthamstow.

For all the Tutu fashion queens and kings out there this is your chance to show off your uniquely beautiful selves! See you next week in Walthamstow! šŸ’‹
