Kingswood Tutu Tuesday - A Night of Sequins and Glitter
Oh, my darlings, what a glorious night it was! Kingswood erupted in a frenzy of pink, glitter, and twirls as Tutu Tuesday took over the town. As a seasoned tutu aficionado, my heart just about burst with excitement. It wasn't just the beautiful, whimsical ballet tutus, but also the wonderfully unexpected takes on this iconic piece of dancewear that had me completely smitten.
I have to say, I'm a sucker for a classic. The full-length, romantic tutu, like a meringue dream come true, still gets my heart fluttering. There were a few stunners in that style last night. But, for a little touch of the outrageous, there were also the "disco-tutus", you know, those shorter, ruffled, numbers with that signature sequin embellishment. And don't even get me started on the fabulousness of the "swansdown" tutu - feather boa-infused magic for the modern ballerina!
It was all about the fabulous at The Kingswood Social last night, my favourite hangout in town. Itâs not exactly a posh place but everyone feels welcome and we have the best karaoke night every Wednesday. It's where we meet. It's where we celebrate our passion for tutus. But this particular Tuesday was next level fabulous!
Speaking of the Social, they even did a special disco night for Tutu Tuesday. A real dance party with sparkly disco balls and everyone decked out in their favourite tutus, rocking out to classic hits. It was magical. Iâm going to put it out there - you havenât lived until youâve done a "Tutu-shuffle" under the glitter ball!
The night wasnât all about tutus. You have to have an array of disco inspired fun in the mix. Kingswood's newest attraction is their cute little, mobile cocktail bar and "The Pink Flamingo" had set up shop for the evening, serving up their iconic pink cocktails and shimmering âGlitter-Martinis.â If you've never had one, oh, darling, youâre missing out. Theyâre so delicious - itâs basically the elixir of fabulous. And letâs not forget "Disco Snail." No, itâs not a snail that likes disco music - it's a quirky mobile disco - which was blasting out music all evening long.
I even saw a few familiar faces on Tutu Tuesday night! My favorite was "Disco Granny" (as she called herself), a delightful lady from the town whoâs a total fashion icon, totally embraced the theme. And did you see how fabulously she rocked a vintage pink sequin tutu over a denim dress? She is a total style queen. Her whole family was there - a real family affair!
It was so lovely to see so many of us coming together to celebrate. Thatâs what I love about Tutu Tuesday, and it truly exemplifies our collective love of dance, style, and fabulous fun! Kingswood is certainly a fabulous place to be on a Tuesday, especially when everyone is channeling their inner ballerina.
Keep your eye out on our local blog because thereâs a special "Best Tutu Tuesday Style" competition! Be sure to submit your fabulous photos!
Here's to the next Kingswood Tutu Tuesday! May it be just as glittery, as funky, and as fabulous as the first. We need to make #tututuesday an all-year-round event!
XOXO
