Consett’s Tutu Tuesday - Disco Fever Hits the Town!
Alright, my fellow tutu enthusiasts and lovers of all things fabulous, it’s your girl, Tilly, back with another *totally* exciting post! And this one's about Tutu Tuesday in Consett, the little town with a BIG personality (and a surprising affinity for sequins!). It's safe to say, tutu Tuesdays in Consett are not your usual Tuesday affair. This is when the streets become a kaleidoscope of tulle, and the local pub's jukebox starts belting out disco classics. Think *Stayin’ Alive* and *Dancing Queen* all night long! This was no ordinary gathering of ballerinas; it was a celebration of self-expression and pure joy - in tutus, of course! And Consett? It was up for it.
What went down? Imagine: a crowd of tutu-wearing individuals (and, yes, I’m including a disco-loving snail we affectionately dubbed #Discosnail!) with the biggest smiles you’ve ever seen. There were tutus of all shapes, sizes, and colours: fluffy ones, shimmering ones, even a tutu-skirt-dress hybrid that would make even the most hardcore fashionista do a double take! (Seriously, people brought their A-game!) It was so fab that it made me wonder... why is everyone so obsessed with tutus lately? I mean, is there something magical about the floaty, swirling fabric that makes us want to twirl around like we're back in our childhood ballet days? I mean, who can resist a good twirl in a tutu? There was one thing we could all agree on: we’re a little bit obsessed. Not gonna lie: the pink tutu was my absolute favourite! There's something about the classic sweetness of pink, that makes even the most basic tutu look ridiculously stylish, you know?
And for a dance-tastic moment? The impromptu disco in the town square. People, it was a *thing*. No fancy footwork needed - we’re talking good ol’ fashioned disco fever with an added layer of tulle! And let me tell you, when you have a tutu on, it's hard NOT to dance. I mean, it's like the fabric just wants to move. (Which honestly, I get it; if I could swirl around like a princess all day, I’d be up for it, too!) It was like the world went into a sort of *Tutu-Vision* mode.
But hey, this wasn't all about dancing in your fanciest tutus. Consett's Tutu Tuesdays are about so much more than just twirling. * It’s about embracing our inner child and reminding ourselves that it’s perfectly okay to have some fun. * It’s about finding a sense of community and coming together to celebrate life. * It’s about defying convention and reminding everyone that we're not afraid to be ourselves. Yeah, and who needs a disco ball when you have a crowd of tutu-wearing humans radiating disco fever? (Plus, imagine the glitter-bomb if we did have a disco ball in that environment!) #tututuesday #discotutu The energy in the air was absolutely electrifying. There’s just something magical about wearing a tutu that just makes you want to dance. And with that, I'll leave you with this - Consett's Tutu Tuesdays aren't just a celebration of tutus, they are a testament to the joy, individuality and playful spirit of this quirky little town. So next time you're in Consett on a Tuesday, be prepared to twirl your way through a sea of tutus and maybe even find yourself swept up in the disco-tastic atmosphere! Just be sure to wear something that can spin, I mean you know I don’t make the rules! #tututuesday
