Tutu Tuesday in Bungendore, New South Wales: A Tutu-tastic Celebration! #tututuesday Hey, fellow tutu enthusiasts! It's your girl, Ella, back with another blog post all about that iconic dancewear: the tutu. Today's all about celebrating our love for the tulle, the froth, the whimsy - and where better to do it than in the charming little town of Bungendore, New South Wales? Now, you might be wondering, "Tutus in Bungendore? Seriously?" Trust me, this little gem of a town has some hidden treasures when it comes to ballet and tutus. It's a town that's embracing a love of dance and you know what? I'm here for it! **A Little Bit of Bungendore Ballet History** Firstly, Bungendore is the birthplace of Australian ballet legend, Margot Fonteyn. That's right, one of the world's greatest dancers! This town has been nurturing talent for generations, and there's a real buzz about ballet in the air. So, what's better than a tutu to show our love for this form of dance, eh? **Bungendore's Tutu Takeover** Every Tuesday, the town of Bungendore has a "Tutu Tuesday." What does that mean? Everyone in town gets to rock their best tutu. I'm talking full-on froth, darling! Imagine walking down the main street, and you see a bunch of shop owners in fluffy pink tutus serving coffee, the butcher in a sparkly black number, the bakery displaying the most amazing cakes next to a gorgeous red and gold tutu? That's Bungendore on a Tuesday! Now, I'm talking more than just your standard pancake tutu, though there's nothing wrong with those! We're seeing tutus that are reinterpreted in modern ways. Take for example the "Cottagecore tutu." Think: light-as-air fabrics, natural hues, floral accents - perfectly in keeping with the bohemian vibes of this picturesque little town. There are also the tutus that incorporate traditional Australian fabrics like possum fur, merino wool or silk. We're talking about elegant designs with that rustic, earthy touch, and trust me, itโ€™s *absolutely* beautiful! **What About The #tututuesday Style?** The great thing about a tutu is that it's so versatile. We're not talking just "ballet" here, I've seen tutus paired with everything: denim jackets, flowy maxi dresses, sneakers. The possibilities are endless, which is why this town's tutu game is strong. You can be totally bold in a statement-making, full-length tutu, or go for something more subtle, like a shorter tutu in a statement colour. Here's my pick for how to rock the #tututuesday look:** - **Pick your colour:** Are you a classic black? Or more of a blush pink kinda gal? A hot pink is great for a bit of personality. Bungendore locals love their bright colours and bold statements. - **Think about your silhouette:** Do you want a full, poofy tutu or something more form-fitting and flowing? - **Add accessories:** Don't be shy! Top off your look with a beanie, some fabulous earrings, or a belt for a little extra flair. Bungendore style is quirky but always chic. **Why Bungendore, You Ask?** It's not just about the tutus. It's about the energy in this town - the sense of community and playful spirit that just makes you want to twirl. Everyone embraces the 'Tutu Tuesday' spirit. The local cafes even offer special Tutu Tuesday deals on sweet treats and pastries. Honestly, how could you not get excited? This little town has got heart! **So, fellow dance lovers, if you find yourself in Bungendore on a Tuesday, get your twirl on! Find that hidden Tutu-tastic queen within yourself! #tututuesday! **
