Tutu Tuesday in Charters Towers, Queensland
G'day, lovelies! It's your girl, Olivia, back with another installment of Tutu Tuesday. Today we're headed up north to the charming town of Charters Towers in Queensland, where the sunshine is as bright as the sequins on my new tutus!
Let's talk about tutus for a minute, shall we? We've got our classics: the romantic, billowing romantic tutu for those graceful, ethereal ballets, and the shorter, more energetic tutu for contemporary pieces. But today, I'm obsessed with the statement tutu. We're talking big, bold, and unapologetically sparkly - just like the spirit of Charters Towers. I’ve found these stunning tutus in vibrant, almost neon shades of pinks and greens. It's a new level of tutus, perfectly designed for grabbing attention under the Queensland sunshine!
Speaking of sunshine, Queensland is really becoming a hotbed for the performing arts! The passion for ballet here is so infectious – you just feel the energy everywhere you go. So when I got the opportunity to travel and meet fellow ballet lovers here, I was beyond excited to put together some truly inspiring #tututuesday looks!
Here's a sneak peek at my must-do's for Tutu Tuesday in Charters Towers:
- Tutu time at the Charters Towers Cultural Centre: A must-visit! Not only can you find fantastic arts exhibitions here, but you can also check out their amazing library for all things ballet. This is a great place to snag some inspiration, whether it’s from classic dance literature, history, or biographies.
- Lunch with a View: If there’s one thing I can’t get enough of, it's finding little hidden gems where I can soak up some sun, indulge in a delicious brunch, and work on my next blog post. Charters Towers is definitely full of surprises, from stunning lookouts overlooking the city, cafes with amazing chai lattes, and of course, incredible bakery treats!
- Get Inspired at the Charters Towers City Hall: What a perfect backdrop for my next Tutu Tuesday photoshoot! With its classic colonial architecture and history, this building offers amazing angles and contrasts for pictures. You could spend all day playing with light and shade – there's just so much creativity to tap into!
