Beckenham Tutu Tuesday: Disco Fever and Tutu Inspiration

It’s Tutu Tuesday and the sun is shining, so you know what that means: time to strut my stuff in a tutu! And where better to do it than the lovely little town of Beckenham, Kent? A place full of character, great cafes, and lots of hidden gems, it's my little slice of ballet heaven.

Now, some might think a tutu is for the stage, for pirouettes and grand jetés, but I’m here to tell you – a tutu is for life, not just for the stage. This is why every Tuesday I dedicate to rocking a tutu wherever I go in Beckenham. Today’s outfit, a gorgeous pink confection of a tutu with sparkly details – definitely a statement piece – paired with my favourite chunky black boots. Feeling pretty fabulous!

Beckenham on a Tuesday morning is all about embracing the everyday. Whether I'm picking up fresh bread from the bakery or grabbing coffee at my fave spot, I'm ready to twirl and spread a little disco love, #tututuesday style.

Tutus come in all shapes and sizes. They are an art form in themselves, and this Tuesday, I was inspired by the vintage flair of a classic double-layered, romantic tutu in a soft tulle fabric, the epitome of ballerina elegance. Then, of course, there is the shorter, whimsical style tutu with layers of fluffier tulle. It's perfect for a twirling session and a great statement piece for any look.

For a touch of drama, there's the 'poule' tutu which boasts a flared, almost poufy shape. Perfect for unleashing your inner swan queen.

No matter what kind of tutu you choose, a good one is going to be comfy – you've gotta be able to move, right? Let's talk about tutu care! Always a topic near and dear to my heart. No one likes a flat or saggy tutu, especially on a #tututuesday.

Today I even saw a fellow tutu lover! Turns out, I wasn't the only one embracing my inner ballerina in Beckenham this Tuesday. It was amazing! It’s the kind of little thing that makes you feel part of a bigger movement. Just goes to show you: a tutu is a great way to start a conversation, get some compliments, and show off your individuality, which leads me to the heart of #tututuesday. It's more than just a fashion statement – it's about confidence, creativity, and having a little fun, even in the most everyday places.

Talking about creativity, I spotted a cute snail crossing the road today wearing tiny, glitter-encrusted disco balls! This little disco snail just topped off the vibe of this day. I mean, come on, a disco snail? #Discosnail! I was absolutely giddy.

Beckenham, you have truly embraced the spirit of #tututuesday and for that, I’m forever grateful. Now, time for some afternoon tea! Who’s up for some more twirling?
