Tutu Tuesday in Gerringong, New South Wales #tututuesday
G'day darlings! It's your girl, Chloe, back with another Tutu Tuesday. This week, I'm taking the tulle to the breathtaking coast of Gerringong, New South Wales.
You guys know I love my tutus, and what better place to flaunt them than amidst the rugged beauty of the Australian coast? I mean, come on, there's nothing like a classic tutu paired with a killer ocean view, right? And Gerringong definitely doesn't disappoint. From its charming, laid-back vibes to the crystal-clear waters of Werri Beach, it's the perfect setting for a fashionista's dream day.
Now, for those of you who haven't been initiated into the world of #tututuesday, let me explain: It's a day where we celebrate all things tutu. Every Tuesday, I share my favourite tutus and give you a glimpse into the magic of dance, even if it's just in your own living room!
This week, I'm channeling the ethereal beauty of the beach with a soft, flowing chiffon tutu in the most dreamy pastel pink. It's light, breezy, and perfect for twirling amongst the wildflowers that carpet the cliffs. The airy tulle dances with the sea breeze, just like my soul does with the rhythm of the waves. And speaking of rhythms, I have a confession: this tutu makes me want to do some serious pirouettes right here on the sand! I can practically hear the strains of Tchaikovsky floating through the air.
To accessorise my #tututuesday look, I opted for some minimal jewellery: a delicate seashell necklace and some tiny, pearl earrings that gleam like dewdrops in the morning sun. My makeup is simple but stunning – natural and glowy, just like a healthy Australian summer tan. It's all about enhancing my natural features and letting my playful, yet elegant style do the talking.
Speaking of playful, I gotta give a shout-out to the folks in Gerringong – the local community spirit here is amazing. As soon as they saw my tutu, everyone lit up, from the little kids skipping around the park to the locals sipping their flat whites at the cafe. We even had a impromptu dance session on the pier! And let me tell you, there's no better feeling than twirling under the bright, blue Aussie sky. It just feels so...free!
But Tutu Tuesday isn't just about looking fabulous. It's about embracing your inner dancer, no matter where you are or what you're doing. So whether you're pirouetteing in the sand, swaying in your kitchen, or even just having a little giggle with your tutu, own it! This day is for us, the dreamers, the twirlers, and the free spirits. It's a reminder to never take life too seriously and to find the joy in every move, every step, every single twirl.
Here's a rundown of the best tutu styles I've spotted on my Tutu Tuesday journey so far:
- The classic romantic tulle tutu – the go-to for those ballerina dreams.
- The edgy, modern tutu - ditching the fluffy, for sharp, geometric silhouettes that are perfect for urban spaces.
- The boho, layered tutu - with a touch of whimsy, layering sheer and flowing tulle for a carefree, summery vibe.
- The colourful tutu – a statement-making splash of vibrancy for those who love a touch of personality in their twirling.
