Tutu Tuesday in Franklin, Tennessee
Hey dancers, and fashionistas! It's Tuesday, which means it's time for our favorite fashion trend: Tutu Tuesday! And you know I wouldn't let this week go by without celebrating in style right here in my beloved Franklin, TN! Today, I'm not just sharing a tutu, I'm bringing you a whole ballet-inspired look for a casual day out and about!
I love how a tutu can be more than just a dance costume. It can be a fun and flirty fashion statement that can be styled in so many different ways. I've always loved incorporating tutu styles into my everyday look, even off the stage. It adds a bit of whimsy, drama, and movement! The best part is, you can adapt it to whatever aesthetic you're going for. Whether you're feeling glamorous, edgy, romantic, or even a bit mischievous, a tutu has got your back!
Let me give you a little rundown of how I styled my Tutu Tuesday look! I’m a fan of the classic, romantic tutus, and that’s what I chose for today’s outfit. It’s a beautiful, delicate, and almost fairytale-like. But let’s be honest: we've come a long way from the traditional, rigid tutus we saw on the ballet stage! Today's tutu options are exciting and much more diverse.
- The Romantic Tutu: This style embodies the traditional idea of a tutu, typically made with multiple layers of soft tulle and adorned with delicate embellishments. If you’re going for a whimsical look, a Romantic Tutu might be the way to go.
- The Edgy Tutu: This style can range from sleek and minimalist to edgy and modern! There are tons of tutus made from fabric, colors, and designs, and even with layers of black netting, with leather and mesh details! These tutus bring a modern vibe, but they’re still so easy to style, especially when paired with black crop tops or a denim jacket.
- The Short Tutu: A short tutu can be anything but stuffy and predictable. From vintage vibes to modern chic looks, there's a short tutu for everyone! Whether you love layering a short tulle over skinny jeans or rocking a classic short tutu over an A-line skirt, short tutus make a fantastic choice for every season. They can be just as dressy, casual, or versatile as their floor-length cousins.
- The Asymetrical Tutu: For something different and playful, asymmetrical tutus offer a chic alternative to traditional tutus. Asymmetry can be a really unique touch! This style might give you a unique opportunity to layer or style the tutu differently, whether you pair it with boots, heels, or even sneakers.
And speaking of ballet in the USA, this tutu is a subtle tribute to our American ballerinas. You know we’re not all just twirling in fluffy tutus! Here in Franklin, Tennessee, we have so many amazing dancers with incredibly diverse backgrounds and skills. They embody strength, artistry, and passion. I’m a bit partial to our local company, the Tennessee Ballet. These dancers aren't just performers - they're creative geniuses! It's truly a joy to see them bring magic to life on stage.
Tutus are so much fun to wear, and you really can make them your own! Just add a little tutu magic to your week. I love finding new ways to style a tutu, and I think this Tuesday’s outfit is just the start for exploring endless possibilities!
