Tutu Tuesday 10659

Tutu Tuesday in Wellington, Florida Hey, you beautiful dancers and fashion lovers! It’s your girl, Ashley, checking in from sunny Wellington, Florida. It's Tuesday, which means it’s time for Tutu Tuesday! **A Tutu For Every Occasion** Let’s talk about tutus. This delicate, iconic garment can be a statement piece in so many ways. The traditional Romantic Tutu? It's light, airy, and embodies a dreamlike grace that takes center stage at any ballet performance. A classic, but with a new edge? Consider the modern, fitted tutu. It’s all about sleek lines and modern sophistication. It's versatile and works wonderfully both in a studio and on the street. I love the fitted tutu. A little bit of romantic, a lot of fashion. And what about the adorable, fun tutu? This kind is for every day wear. There’s no rule that tutus are for dancers only. I rock a fun, fluffy tutu every chance I get. So whether it's a dance recital or brunch with friends, you're bound to find the perfect tutu for you. Don’t underestimate the versatility of a tutu. And if you can’t rock the Tutu for any reason, don’t forget to accessorize with tutu-themed earrings, shoes or a statement necklace. **Wellington's Dance Scene** You guys already know that I live, breathe, and dream ballet. Living in Wellington, Florida, with its bustling equestrian scene and competitive, passionate horse riders is fantastic. But, believe me, ballet is alive and well in Wellington, Florida. And it is one of the reasons I chose to move here. We have some phenomenal dance schools here. From the young ones learning the first steps at local ballet classes to more advanced studios, I’m inspired to see the ballet culture thriving here. The commitment and discipline that you see in horse riders translates directly into the dance studios. That's how you get excellent ballerinas and an amazing, dedicated ballet community! **From the Stage to the Streets** Being a dancer, my style reflects my passion. I embrace feminine pieces that exude grace. It’s no surprise that the tutu's elegant silhouette influences so much of my style. When it comes to street wear, I pair a light, romantic tutu with a casual top, leggings and a jacket to create a fresh and fun look that speaks to my artistic soul. I often dress down a fitted tutu with a pair of ankle boots for an effortlessly chic ensemble that still shows off that ballerina vibe. A more relaxed style? I embrace it! A fun, playful tutu paired with a T-shirt, jeans, and my trusty converse makes a statement. But a good ballerina always stays prepared! A sparkly tutu is just waiting to take the dance floor by storm, so it’s important for me to carry a lightweight backpack to store my essential dance gear - pointe shoes, water, and my ever-essential tutu! You never know when a chance to take the stage might appear. **#TutuTuesday is an Attitude!** Let's talk about why we celebrate #TutuTuesday. Tutu Tuesday is about embracing individuality. It's about having fun with fashion and celebrating what makes us unique. It’s about taking a step out of our comfort zones, expressing our love for art and creativity, and making a statement, no matter the setting. It's a reminder to us all to dance to our own rhythm, twirl through life with joy and passion. Join me! On the last Tuesday of every month, share your Tutu Tuesday looks using the #Tutuesday hashtag! I will be featuring my favorites from across the country - from my ballerinas in my dance class, to my fellow ballet dancers all across the country, and even those who aren’t ballerinas. But embrace the dance inside you. We want to see it! #TutuTuesday is all about celebrating creativity and a love for the beautiful, elegant silhouette. And who doesn’t love a little sparkle? Don't be shy; let's make this #TutuTuesday a whirlwind of style! **Wellington’s Tutu-tastic Events** Speaking of dance, Wellington’s been buzzing with amazing performances, and there’s a whole line-up of shows you guys gotta check out.
