Tutu Tuesday in Miami Beach, Florida

Hey dancers and fashionistas! It’s your girl, Lily, back again with another #tututuesday blog post. I’m here to talk to you about tutu trends, because who doesn’t love a good tutu? Whether you’re a professional ballerina, a ballet enthusiast, or just a lover of all things girly, a tutu can elevate any look. You know I have my fair share of tutus, so today, I am going to be sharing my top five picks for a fabulous Tutu Tuesday in Miami Beach, Florida!

Miami Beach Ballerina Style: Tutu Trends

For those of you unfamiliar with tutu trends, it is all about incorporating tutu fashion and styling to express a bit of ballerina fashion into your everyday life. Tutu trends aren’t just a matter of choosing the right tutu. You need the perfect shoes and matching accessories to give your look the ultimate touch of ballerina chic!

The Pastel Powerhouse Tutu

It’s no secret, Miami Beach is all about colors, especially pastels. So it makes sense that one of my favorite #tututuesday looks is a tutu in shades like lavender, peach, or light blue. I just love how soft and pretty it is! This look really embraces those beachy vibes, but it's so versatile, you could definitely wear it for brunch with your besties or for a date night! To complete this pastel powerhouse tutu look, you’ll want to stick with classic feminine looks with lots of dainty jewelry, a top in a complimentary color, and maybe even a statement headband. When in doubt, just try pairing the tutu with a pretty floral print. There is just something about florals and pastels that is a match made in heaven. For this look, your shoe choices will also lean into femininity - stilettos or some kind of flat with some feminine detailing would work best. And just to add some fun, toss on a little bit of glitter or maybe some subtle glitter eyeshadow for a bit of shimmer. You know me and my glitter!

The Romantic Tutu

I don't know about you, but Miami Beach always makes me feel like a princess, so why not embrace the feeling? My go-to style for this look is a soft, romantic, tutu. My favorite tutus for this look have ruffles, tiers, and a vintage, whimsical feeling. For this look, try incorporating florals, a lightweight shirt, and some pretty, romantic accessories - lace necklaces or bracelets are really great with this. When choosing the shoes for a romantic look, stick with some strappy heels or sandals. If you're feeling brave, you could even get away with a cute, flat, strappy sandal.

This look is about looking put-together while still maintaining that breezy Miami vibe. Remember you don't need to go all out with a princess aesthetic - the perfect way to rock the romantic tutu is with the use of light shades of pastels, like peach or light pink, and even white is always beautiful and romantic. Just make sure you accessorize with the right jewelry and shoes to help your look.

The Classic Tutu

Here at Ballet in America, the classic tutu will always have a special place in our hearts! So for #tututuesday we love rocking a classic ballerina tutu. When I say classic tutu, I am referring to a standard professional ballerina's tutu: a short, full, tutu made with several layers of tulle that has been stiffened into shape. There are a few different styles of classic tutus. There is the “Romantic tutu" which has more layers, the “Classical” which has more stiff, boxy structure, and the “bell,” which looks like an upturned, bell-shaped, bell because it is sewn on to a cone-shaped bodice. There are a ton of different ways you can rock this classic, traditional tutu look. Just remember that a professional tutu is not for every day, so the best way to wear this is with something else a little less formal like a t-shirt or even a denim jacket to tone down the formal tutu and create a cute, sporty and fashionable vibe! It also goes without saying that if you want to try to rock a professional ballet tutu for a #tututuesday look, you might have to get creative to find the right look with all your accessories, jewelry, and shoes.

When wearing this look, I love to throw in some high fashion accessories with some statement earrings or even a scarf! Don’t forget about the perfect hair to complete your look. A low bun is an obvious choice and if you feel confident, you could try your luck with a sleek, chic ballerina bun - a real hair masterpiece - you have got to be brave and know what you’re doing! Or a French braid looks absolutely amazing when styled with this. You don’t want to look too serious so I'd keep the makeup minimal with some bold lip color or even try your hand at some glitter makeup! Just try to keep it casual.

The Casual Chic Tutu

Some times all you really want to do on #tututuesday is to throw on a comfortable outfit. That's where my favorite, easy to wear look comes in: the casual chic tutu! If I’m going for comfort and style, a soft layered tutu or a maxi-tutu is my best friend. Just like the classic tutu, this style is pretty casual so pairing it with a sweater, a basic shirt, or even a sweatshirt for a little edgy, fashion forward look is always going to look nice.

To help tone down this casual look, just rock some sneakers, flats, sandals, or maybe even boots! For the makeup and jewelry - go for minimalist. Remember it's all about that cozy vibe and making a fashion statement while you're out exploring all the awesome shops, markets and food stands of Miami Beach. I’d always recommend keeping the look simple and effortless while rocking this #tututuesday casual chic look, because you know how important comfort and effortlessness is to the Miami vibe!

The Miami Beach Party Tutu

Miami Beach is famous for its nightlife. So this list would be incomplete without the #tututuesday look for all those fabulous, glamorous Miami Beach parties. A black, white, or bold colored tutu looks best for this fun night look. Now let’s not go overboard! You want to keep it classy, but not too formal, since Miami nightlife is all about rocking those edgy vibes! So stick with your favorite tutu and give it a bit of an edge with some awesome accessories, maybe a fun top, and your favorite statement shoes.

Miami nights are hot so maybe even opt for an open-toed, strappy shoe or platform sandals with just a touch of glamour. Don’t forget about the makeup! Some nice smoky eye, and you know I love me some red lipstick or maybe even a dark bold lip will really top it all off.
