Tutu Tuesday 18509

Beauchamp-en-France, Ile-de-France: Tutu Tuesday, My French Fantasy G'day, darlings! Your girl is back in Paris, and this time I'm bringing the tutus to the streets. I mean, how else do you make a grand entrance in this city of romance, croissants and couture, right? Let's just say I'm embracing the "Je ne sais quoi" of tutus, but in the most authentically Aussie way I can. #tututuesday This time around I'm swapping the pointe shoes for trusty Converse – they're far more practical for navigating the cobblestone streets. As I wandered past the medieval architecture of Beauchamp-en-France I spotted a **Ballet du Nord** studio with its window plastered with photos of dancers in some truly glamorous tutus. The moment I laid eyes on those costumes I just knew – this week's #tututuesday had to be about celebrating the French love for ballet. Let’s be real – when I say tutu, you think Paris. Or the iconic Moulin Rouge. Or the Swan Lake. Right? Ballet just *is* France, so what better way to channel those vibes than with a tutu that nods to Parisian history. **Parisian chic:** * My look? Let's start with a romantic **tulle tutu** - it's floaty, feminine and oh-so-French. This week's pick is in blush pink with a touch of gold detail - it's dreamy! To bring the street style vibes, I've layered a denim jacket and an oversized beret, with the jacket open so my tutu takes center stage. Oh, and naturally, some statement earrings to add a touch of sparkle - Parisian style just isn't complete without some bling! **Making tutu-day an everyday thing** Now, the beauty of a tutu is that you can dress it up or down - depending on your mood (and the Parisian weather, which can change in the blink of an eye). Want to amp things up? I've snapped pics wearing it with a **faux fur** jacket in the evening, just to show off the "Belle epoque" vibes. I’m feeling quite **“Gigi”** – all Parisian elegance with a touch of retro magic, and it works! You don't have to be a dancer to own a tutu – let's be real, they’re like the little black dress of the dance world. I’m a firm believer that any woman can pull off the tutu with a bit of confidence. Plus, who says you need to stick with the classic colours of pink, white or black? Try a **blue tutu** if you want a vibrant, modern edge, or a **neon green tutu** if you want to make a statement – there’s a whole world of colors to choose from, which just makes it even more fun. **Local flavour:** If you want to take inspiration from the local scene – head to **Beauchamp-en-France’s Théâtre** where they host all sorts of incredible dance events. While I haven't spotted any ballerinas rocking tutus in the streets of Beauchamp-en-France, you might just be inspired to be the first. Or try a classic** ballet skirt** or a **romantic floral print midi dress** instead – you’ll have the Parisians doing a double-take. Now, before I wrap this up, I’ve got to show you this amazing **French patisserie** I stumbled upon! My new motto? When in France, eat as many **macarons** as you can! They're the perfect sweet treat after a long day of #tututuesday strutting. Talk to you all soon!
