Disco Tutu Tuesday 260083

Tutu Tuesday in Carlisle: A Dance Party on the Streets! Carlisle, oh Carlisle, you’ve done it again! I’m talking about Tutu Tuesday, of course, that fabulous day where every single tutu enthusiast in the area throws on their most dazzling twirly number and hits the town. Imagine the scene, if you will: the sunshine (well, sometimes!) bouncing off yards of shimmering tulle, laughter echoing down the cobbled streets, and an energy so vibrant it practically vibrates at 45 RPM! Yep, Carlisle is truly the epicenter of Tutu Tuesday fever, and this week was no different. As I skipped down Botchergate, I was struck by the sheer diversity of tutu styles on show. Classic pink tutus? Tick! Whimsical rainbow tutus? Double tick! Glittering silver and gold tutus for the glamorous? Naturally! The real stars, though, were the vintage beauties: 80s tutus with puffball layers, 70s crochet numbers, and even a handful of Victorian-style tutus that screamed old Hollywood glamour! This isn’t just a chance to strut your stuff – it's about expressing yourself, celebrating all things fun and fabulous, and of course, embracing that inner twirling queen. I saw ladies in business suits rocking tutu-topped heels, guys rocking tutus alongside their girlfriends, even families coordinating outfits for an unforgettable day! But let’s get down to the nitty gritty, the reason we were all here: the #Discosnail. For the uninitiated, The Discosnail, a real-life legend, is a silver Vauxhall Astra decked out with flashing disco lights, spinning mirror balls, and enough chrome to shame a drag queen. It’s the quintessential Tutu Tuesday experience, cruising the streets, pumping out iconic disco hits, and blasting the mood right through the roof! I've picked out some of my fave Tutu Tuesday snaps, check out these incredible styles! * **The Romantic Ballerina** This one’s a classic. This beautiful blush pink tutu flowed gracefully, paired with simple black flats for a touch of elegance. Think soft colours, delicate details and a touch of fairy tale. * **The Disco Diva** The gold glitter tutu was screaming 70s disco ball vibes, a must-have for any self-respecting tutu queen. We are talking sequins, shimmer and shine! * **The Vintage Wonder** This adorable little number channeled classic style with layers of white tulle and a touch of lace. Think 1950s, ballerina style and a touch of classic sophistication. * **The Quirky Fusion** This tutu really made a statement, blending a bold neon yellow base with layers of different coloured tulle. Don’t be afraid to mix patterns and textures! This look is fun, eye-catching and definitely bold.
