Midwest City, Oklahoma: #tututuesday Is a Thing and I'm Obsessed!
Okay, Oklahoma City, hear me out: It's Tutu Tuesday and I'm here to spill the tea on the *why* and the *how* you need to hop on this fabulous trend.
I've always been a ballet dancer, through and through, and I love my tutus - the feeling of them swirling around you as you leap across the stage is unparalleled. But even if you've never been to a ballet class, the elegance and whimsical joy of a tutu speaks for itself. Let's be real, it's pretty darn stylish, too!
The best part? You don't need to be a prima ballerina to rock a tutu. That's what I'm here for!
The Tutu: Your Go-to for #tututuesday
- A Statement Piece: Tutues are just plain fun and add instant pizazz to your look. Need I remind you, tutus are like mini fashion statements in themselves!
- No Rules: Want to wear a fluffy, romantic tulle tutu or a sleek, sporty, contemporary one? Your choice, darling. A Tutu Tuesday can mean all kinds of style,
- Casual Elegance: This is what separates Tutu Tuesday from every other Tuesday, my friends. The best thing about a tutu? It's not a uniform! It's something to wear with your own twist and attitude.
Here’s how to style a tutu:
*
Embrace Your Inner Ballet Star: You're not on stage but think ballerina-inspired pieces for an outfit. Tulle paired with simple tops, sneakers or classic heels is perfection.
*
Layering is Your Friend: Wear your tutu as an overskirt with a stylish shirt and jeans or pants - even a cool leather jacket or flannel on a chillier day in Oklahoma can look awesome with a tutu.
*
It’s an Accessory, NOT a Uniform: Add a tutu to your favorite summery look! Try a short tutu over your sundress, a little denim jacket, and bright platforms for a trendy, flirty look.
What Does Your Tutu Tuesday Look Like?
*
Get Bold: If you love color, then a vibrant, full-circle tutu in pink, green, blue or purple is the way to go.
*
Keep It Chic: Opt for a neutral color, like black, navy, white, or gray - it works with practically every outfit you own.
* **Be a Tutu Trendsetter**: If you're not sure how to style it, try pairing it with a simple top and your favorite boots, sneakers, sandals, or flats. Whatever your personal style!
So how did I rock Tutu Tuesday?
Today, I threw on a cute black-and-white stripe top with my favorite black denim shorts, a stylish tan belt and a little cream-colored tutu over top. I threw on my comfy Converse sneakers, added my signature charm necklace, and voilà - ready to conquer #tututuesday in Midwest City!
I took a couple selfies at my favorite local coffee shop and posted a #tututuesday selfie! You can find it at my instagram account (Username here). Let's inspire others with our fun style, friends!
