Edmonton: Tutu Tuesday is Taking Over!
Itās Tuesday, and you know what that means! That's right, folks, itās **Tutu Tuesday** in Edmonton, and my dance shoes are ready to twirl. Honestly, I think we need to make this a national holiday - perhaps **National Tutu Tuesday**, what do you reckon?
Now, I know what youāre thinking: āButā¦ donāt tutus belong in the ballet studio?ā Absolutely! But think of them as the little black dress of the dance world: so versatile! We can wear tutus pretty much everywhere! From a graceful lunch at a cafĆ© (paired with a crisp blazer and fabulous heels, of course), to grocery shopping, to even just a casual walk through the park (perfect for those "unexpectedly graceful" moments you never saw coming).
But hold up! We're not talking your standard ballet studio tutu here - Iām not saying you can't wear one (because you absolutely can! Let's rock those fluffy dreams!). But think bigger! This Tutu Tuesday, think **fashion-forward, disco-tastic!** And no, that doesn't mean just shoving some tinsel on a ballet tutu and calling it a day (although that sounds pretty fabulous too!), but more a chance to get a little creative and express your inner *dancing queen* (get it? Get it?)
My personal style for today is a beautiful **pink** **layered tutu** with feather detailing! Just because we can (and we must!). Don't worry, there are so many fab **tutu styles** to choose from to suit every kind of personality:
- **Fluffy Tutues**: Perfect for channeling your inner princess (or for catching all those precious sugar-plum fairies that magically pop up on Tutu Tuesdays!), These tutus can be made out of **tulle** or **feathers**! Go for a fluffy **ombre** tutu with layers of different pink shades to look *tres chic*.
- **Minimalist Tutues**: Think sleek and stylish, with less layers for a modern edge. A black or white **tutu skirt** worn over skinny jeans? Boom! Instant fashion win!
- **Party Tutues**: Who needs glitter for a disco party? Okay, maybe some. But a metallic tutu in bronze, silver or gold with a splash of sequins is your ultimate *dancing queen* look.
- **Reworked Tutues**: Be a vintage queen. Repurposed tutu skirts are fantastic for a stylish statement. Let's use those leftover bits of **lace** and **ribbons**!
- **DIY Tutues**: Let's be honest, making your own is half the fun! YouTube is a goldmine of **DIY tutu tutorials**, from **sewing beginner** levels to the **pro ballerinas** of the craft world!
Honestly, even the **discosnail**, with his iconic pink and shimmering shell, knows how to wear a tutu (or maybe it's just his cute snail shell. Let's not be rude). If a snail can rock it, so can we! Let's embrace our inner sparkle. #discosnail #tututuesday
And what goes best with a tutu? Well, we all know that dancing shoes, but to really top it off, you gotta have some killer disco tunes. I'm putting my personal spin on Tutu Tuesday by curating a fab playlist.
So whether youāre channeling **Grace Kelly**, **Freddie Mercury**, **Disco Stu** or **Barbie**, join me in this celebratory moment, put on your **favourite tutu**, embrace the **tutu madness**, and enjoy all the glitter, glam and glamour of Edmontonās #tututuesday.
