Tutu Tuesday in Merriwa, New South Wales: A Ballet Lover's Delight! #tututuesday Hey, gorgeous dancers and fashionistas! It's your girl, Amelia, back with another Tutu Tuesday adventure. This week, I took my tutu obsession to the charming town of Merriwa in New South Wales. And let me tell you, it was a delightful journey filled with twirling, laughter, and a sprinkle of rural Aussie charm! Merriwa, a little slice of heaven nestled amongst rolling hills and gum trees, held the perfect backdrop for my Tutu Tuesday shenanigans. I decided to go for a classic, romantic tutu style, featuring a soft, billowing tulle skirt in a dreamy blush pink hue. The tutu was paired with a simple black leotard and a vintage-inspired lace bolero jacket. Firstly, let's talk about the warm welcome I received. The locals of Merriwa embraced my tutu enthusiasm with open arms and genuine curiosity. Kids, giggling and pointing, came running up to ask about my costume, while older folks shared anecdotes about ballet performances they'd seen in their youth. The whole vibe of Merriwa was just so laid-back and welcoming, a stark contrast to the fast-paced energy of Sydney where I usually strut my tutu. I started my exploration at the historic Merriwa Courthouse, its stately sandstone facade providing a striking backdrop for some twirls and photographs. The courthouse itself boasts a rich history, a tale that felt like a classic ballet plot twist, it's even said to be haunted by the ghost of a former judge! It felt only natural to honour the venue's dramatic past with a dramatic twirl! Of course, I couldn't visit Merriwa without paying my respects to its stunning natural beauty. The town's lush park, nestled beside a crystal clear creek, was the perfect location to unleash my inner ballerina. The sunlight filtering through the leaves and the gentle hum of the nearby water made for the most magical atmosphere, like I had stumbled onto the set of a classic fairytale. While enjoying the beautiful scenery, I found myself surrounded by the vibrant community of Merriwa, people gathering for their weekly farmers' market. Amidst stalls overflowing with fresh produce and homemade goodies, my tutu became a beacon of fun and energy, drawing smiles and happy exclamations. One particular highlight was encountering a group of kids from the local dance school. They were enthralled with my tutu, asking a million questions about ballet and my life as a dancer. The sheer joy on their faces reminded me of the magic that dance holds for children and the beauty of sharing your passions with others. The whole experience, with my Tutu and all, really was a perfect embodiment of that 'magic' that ballet holds. It really opened my eyes to the vibrancy of ballet outside the bustling city and the heartwarming passion that exists in smaller communities like Merriwa. Now, back to my fabulous tutu style. This week, I chose a classic, romantic style with a soft, billowing tulle skirt in a dreamy blush pink hue. The tutu was paired with a simple black leotard and a vintage-inspired lace bolero jacket. This outfit embodied a whimsical elegance perfect for a stroll through the park or a spin on a historic courthouse lawn!
