Tutu Tuesday in Norfolk, Virginia!

Hey Tutu Lovers! It's your girl, Savannah, back with another Tutu Tuesday post! Today, we're taking our tutus to Norfolk, Virginia! I'm so excited to be sharing my love for tutus in this vibrant city! Norfolk has so much to offer when it comes to style and dance - you can truly feel the passion for the arts. Tutu Time at the Virginia Stage Company!

I'm not gonna lie, my first stop in Norfolk was the Virginia Stage Company! Talk about an iconic theater space with amazing history. But let's get back to the tutus, folks! During my tour of the backstage area, I spotted a beautiful array of tutus in the costume department. Some classics, some contemporary styles, but all incredibly stunning! Here's what stood out:

* **Romantic Tutu** : A classic tutu with layers of tulle that flow with each graceful movement! I loved how they were using different colored layers to create a stunningly dramatic effect. * **Contemporary Tutu:** Modern dance isn't just about minimalist moves, they rock some killer tutus too! We saw some experimental pieces with asymmetric designs, and even some layered tulle in bright pops of color! * **The Powder Puff Tutu** Think of a perfect cloud of soft tulle. It was so bouncy and playful I was seriously tempted to put on a tutu myself and join in with a performance - just kidding (well maybe.. not!) From the Stage to Tutu Shop Shopping

From the ballet world, to the streets of Norfolk! You gotta believe that every dancer loves a good tutu shopping spree. Here are a few shops I found in Norfolk where you can get your tutu fix:

* **Dance Boutique Norfolk** They had everything from professional stage tutus to cute little tutus perfect for dancing around in your own home. Plus, the staff was incredibly helpful and really knowledgeable about the different styles of tutus - so fun to chat with them. * **Studio 1818 Dancewear**: Not gonna lie, I walked into this shop expecting basic dancewear and left feeling like a princess. It was like an Aladdin's Cave of tutu options! Plus they have tons of cute dance clothes and ballet shoes. This shop's a real treasure trove! Norfolk's #TutuTuesday Take Away!

They were all beautifully crafted, but also didn't shy away from modern, experimental designs. * **Shop local:** Whether it's a stage tutu or a playful Tutu for a special occasion, there's a perfect Tutu waiting for you in Norfolk.
