Tutu Tuesday in Tura Beach, New South Wales: A Tutu-ful Day at the Beach #tututuesday Hey lovelies! It’s your girl, Mia, back with another post from the sunny shores of New South Wales, Australia. This week, I’m taking Tutu Tuesday to the beach! Who says tutus are only for the stage? I’m here to tell you that these frilly, twirly wonders are a fashion statement that can rock any occasion, and let’s face it, a day at the beach is the perfect opportunity to showcase some serious tulle! This past Tuesday, I made my way down to the gorgeous Tura Beach for a little fun in the sun and some seriously Insta-worthy Tutu Tuesday shots. I mean, it’s practically a national holiday at this point! Now, before we dive into the photos, let's chat about the tulle game: * **The classic, single-layered tutu:** Think “Swan Lake” elegance with a slightly bohemian vibe. Perfect for beach walks and sunset picnics! I chose a delicate ivory tutu with a sprinkle of sequins, just enough to catch the last rays of the day. * **The voluminous, multi-layered tutu:** For a dramatic effect, try a tutu with multiple layers of tulle, perfect for whipping around and making an entrance! This option screams "beach party," especially paired with a vibrant floral bikini top and beach waves. * **The “it’s all about the texture” tutu:** If you’re feeling experimental, try a tutu with textured tulle like lace or crochet. I saw a gorgeous bohemian-inspired crochet tutu that would look fantastic paired with a knitted or macrame cover-up! Once you've picked your perfect tulle partner, get ready for some beachside fun! Here are some ways to make the most of Tutu Tuesday at the beach: * **Sunset photoshoot:** The golden hour provides the best lighting for dreamy tutu pictures. Take your photoshoot game to the next level with some fun props, like beach hats, oversized sunnies, or even a stack of colourful beach towels. Don’t forget to share your Tutu Tuesday creations using the hashtag #tututuesday. * **Beachside ballet class:** It's time to embrace the true meaning of Tutu Tuesday! I took my ballet shoes to the sand for a mini dance class. Nothing feels as liberating as moving your body in the salty air, with the waves crashing in the background! * **Beach picnic:** Gather your friends, pack a picnic basket full of delicious treats, and enjoy a delicious and glamorous lunch with your tutus. Think sandwiches with dainty finger food. You can even dress up your food with little floral touches, just like you did with your outfit! This is where I'd usually insert a link to my shop or offer exclusive deals on some of the stunning tutus I've featured. I'd be remiss if I didn't encourage you all to visit your local dance shops for incredible tutu options. I've got a whole arsenal of tutus waiting for you to bring them on your adventures! Of course, what's a Tutu Tuesday adventure without some spectacular pictures to remember the day? Here's a quick photo-tip to add extra polish to your Insta-worthy shots. Try playing with different angles! If you want that ethereal, ballerina feel, keep the camera below eye level. So, if you're ever in need of a bit of fairytale magic, look no further than a tutu. Let’s make Tutu Tuesday a regular thing in all corners of Australia! Whether you’re at the beach, in the city, or at a coffee shop, embrace your inner dancer and bring your love of dance to life. Thanks for joining me, and let’s keep twirling! Mia xx
