Tutu Tuesday 18442

## **Tutu Tuesday in Villecresnes, ÃŽle-de-France, France #tututuesday** G'day lovelies! So, I've been doing a lot of touring lately and you guys know how much I love checking out the local ballet scene wherever I go. This week, I found myself in Villecresnes, ÃŽle-de-France, a charming little town just outside Paris. Now, Villecresnes isn't exactly a world-famous ballet hub, but there's something really special about the ballet here. The local ballet school, "Centre de Danse Villecresnes," has a real passion for the art form. And you know what they say, passion is infectious. It was an absolute blast. I watched their weekly performance and got to chat with a couple of the lovely dancers afterwards. The thing that really struck me about the ballet in Villecresnes is its commitment to tradition. You can really feel the influence of the great French ballet schools, with the dancers moving with such precision and grace. But while the techniques are traditional, the styles themselves are fresh and innovative. The repertoire they had on this week showcased everything from the classics like "Swan Lake" to more contemporary works with original choreography. You can see how the teachers are really encouraging their students to explore the breadth of what ballet has to offer. Speaking of exploration, what would a Tutu Tuesday post be without a bit of a style chat? Villecresnes definitely brought the tutus! They weren't all about frills and fluff; there was a nice variety. * We saw classic Romantic-era tutus, those with soft, gauzy layers of tulle – they looked like swirling clouds. * The students were really rocking some beautiful, sleek contemporary tutus – think minimal design with some striking colour pops. * Then we had the more theatrical, costume-esque tutus. These babies had tons of details – beads, sequins, feather trim – and honestly they just exuded drama. Honestly, I'm so impressed with the style game in Villecresnes. I was inspired, I felt like grabbing a tutu myself and dancing around the city. Maybe one day, you'll catch me taking a class at Centre de Danse Villecresnes, you never know! In the meantime, I'm here for it. Embrace your inner dancer, ladies! Don't be afraid to experiment and have fun with the different styles. Whatever tutu you choose to wear, I hope you'll take a twirl today. And remember, every day can be #tututuesday. Oh, and one last tip - don't forget to document your Tutu Tuesday fun. Share your pics with me on social media! I want to see those amazing tutus in action. Stay tuned for more travel tales and tutu fashion inspiration! Lots of love, (Your Name Here) xx
