Tutu Tuesday in La Tour-du-Pin, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France - #tututuesday G'day, fellow dance enthusiasts! This Aussie ballet blogger is bringing you a vibrant dose of Tutu Tuesday from the charming town of La Tour-du-Pin, nestled in the heart of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France. The cobbled streets, the quaint cafes, the history seeping from every corner - it's a magical place that truly embraces its artistic heritage, and you bet ballet is part of that! Now, let's get down to the tutu business. Today's ensemble? A dreamy, billowing tulle masterpiece. I'm talking classic, romantic, almost ethereal, like a whisper of a tutu, with layers of delicate chiffon cascading gracefully down. It's the kind of tutu that would be right at home in a classic "Giselle" scene, and with a touch of French elegance, of course. Think of it as the ballet equivalent of a chic Parisian cafe, oozing timeless charm and feminine beauty. But First, A Little History Let's rewind the clock a bit.
