Tutu Tuesday in Grays - A Ballet Dancer's Guide to Disco Chic
It's Tutu Tuesday and the streets are alive with the sound of... well, the sound of my tap shoes! Yes, my lovelies, it's that magical day of the week where I don my favourite tutu and embrace the world with all the twirls and glitter my heart desires. Today, Grays, we're going disco! #tututuesday
So, darling readers, where do I even start? Grays may not be the most glamorous of towns, but let's be honest, you can wear a tutu anywhere you want - it's not a question of place, it's a statement! Today, I’m feeling especially inspired by those dazzling, feather-trimmed numbers with all their 70's disco vibes. Talk about a mood booster! The best part about a disco-tutu? The whole ‘dress up, dance the night away’ feel it brings to a regular Tuesday!
Honestly, you don't have to have a costume party lined up, I wear mine while running errands, making lunch, even to the bank! I like to add some personality with an outrageous shade of lipstick – think fuchsia, pink or even bubblegum, and a dash of sparkle eyeshadow! (Don’t forget to pair it with an oversized glitter disco ball necklace - the more the merrier!).
Think of your outfit as an explosion of sequins and feathers – all those pretty patterns and colours will have you dancing like nobody’s watching (or are they?). The key? Embracing the silliness! And with that said, let me tell you all about my favourite tutu looks for this special Tutu Tuesday in Grays:
- The Princess Tutu: It's all about pink – the kind of pink that would make Barbie jealous! With a generous sprinkle of sequins, and that signature tulle fluff, you’ll be ready for any occasion - be it a tea party, a parade or just an ordinary walk in the park. You can never go wrong with a classic! (Add a cute tiara for a bit of royal touch!)
- The Funky Fashionista: A bolder choice – I’m talking funky colours, lots of pattern mixing (polka dots, stripes!), perhaps some feathered trimmings… And always, always sequins! A nod to the fabulous fashion choices from those iconic disco eras!
- The Rockin' Retro: This tutu is all about expressing your inner rock and roll chick. We’re talking about dark-coloured tulle with a slight bit of fringe, even some faux leather additions! Go for those high top trainers (studded, naturally!), a studded belt (and, oh, let’s not forget a band tee). A fierce and fabulous rock chick ready to rock!
There you have it, darling Grays. Tutu Tuesday is the perfect excuse for a little disco dancing in your tutu – maybe throw on a 70's afro wig too if you're feeling it. Let's show the world that Grays isn’t just about grays! You’ve got this, darlings – get ready to strut your stuff!
So remember, don’t be afraid to add your own spin and flaunt your personal style! Because remember, Grays, we don’t just live, we sparkle! #tututuesday
P.S. This week’s inspiration is also "The Disco Snail", my disco-loving friend from a local wildlife charity – it was the cutest sight in my neighbourhood seeing this tiny creature, all glitter and neon colors! We all need a bit of sparkle in our lives, don’t you think?
