Scunthorpe Tutu Tuesday: A Disco Celebration!

Hey darlings, it's your girl, Amelia here, back with another fabulous #tututuesday post! As you all know, Tuesday's are dedicated to the glorious garment that is the tutu! And trust me, there's no better place to celebrate tutus than right here in Scunthorpe! #tututuesday

This week, I'm channeling all the disco vibes. Picture it: shimmering sequins, bright pink tulle, and enough glitter to blind a pirate! Because yes, even tutus can be a statement piece! Forget boring old ballet pink, baby, it's time for a bold, vibrant colour scheme that will leave people wondering "Is that a ballerina or a disco diva?"

I'm absolutely obsessed with this season's crop of tutus, especially the layered ones. The multi-tiered tulle adds that extra pop of drama, and it lets you strut around like a fairytale princess with a touch of punk. Talk about a winning combination! And don't even get me started on the cutouts! They're daring, chic, and the perfect way to show off those long, graceful legs. *wink*

The #discosnail movement, that is, dressing like a glamorous, funky disco queen - think the Bee Gees meets the Hustle, is super on trend! So embrace those glittering, sequinned bodysuits and don't be afraid to let your inner dance floor goddess shine!

Now, where can you find the perfect Scunthorpe #tututuesday look? Here are some of my absolute favs!

  • **The Fashion Emporium:** Don't be fooled by its simple name, this shop is a hidden treasure trove of everything fashionable and affordable! They stock amazing tutus, and they’ve got a fantastic selection of dazzling sequined tops!
  • **Charity Shops:** I love thrifting, because you can find true treasures. My biggest tip is to check the costume shops around the area as many have fantastic, theatrical tutus with vibrant fabrics and embellishments that would make even the disco balls blush!
  • **Handmade by You!** Want to show off your creative skills? Head to the fabric shop! It’s such a great experience to find your fabrics and patterns. Maybe a bit more challenging if you’re a beginner, but absolutely achievable if you’re prepared to give it a try!

Now, for some #tututuesday tips that will have you dancing the night away in style:

  • **Don't Be Afraid of Colour!** Think neon pinks, vibrant blues, sparkling greens! Embrace the vibrancy of the 70s and go all out.
  • **Glitter is your best friend!** The more glitter the better, I always say! Sprinkle it on, sprinkle it in! But most importantly, have fun and don't be afraid to sparkle!
  • **Get that Disco Hair:** Let those locks flow with a bouncy, glamorous style that screams “70s”. Long waves, sleek ponytails or even an awesome, teased bouffant! Remember, hairspray is your best friend, ladies!
  • **Don't forget your platforms:** Nothing screams "Disco Queen" like a killer pair of platform heels. Don't worry, you can still find them at a few stores in Scunthorpe. A quick trip online will certainly help with your disco hunt too!

Remember, a #tututuesday is more than just a fancy dress-up day; it's a celebration of confidence, creativity, and our shared love for all things twirly and shiny! Now go out there and shine, darlings! And don't forget to snap a photo and tag me on Instagram, I'd love to see your amazing #tututuesday looks! #discosnail
