Tutu Tuesday in Hanwood, New South Wales #tututuesday Hey dance lovers! It's your girl, Clara, back with another installment of #tututuesday, straight from the heart of Hanwood, New South Wales. Now, you might be thinking, "Hanwood? What's there to see?". Well, let me tell ya, this small town has got some big dreams and a love for ballet that would rival the biggest city. Let's get down to business: Tutu Tuesday! As usual, the internet is overflowing with tutus, and I've gotta say, I'm digging the trends. The classic Romantic tutu is always a stunner, a beautiful wispy swirl of tulle. There's something about that ethereal, dreamlike feel that just captures the essence of ballet. But I'm all for mixing it up a bit, y'know? Today I'm feelin' the modern vibe. Some of those new-age, asymmetrical designs, maybe with a splash of colour, or even a bit of embellishment, are giving me major inspiration. Talk about bringing that old classic into the 21st century. And then there's the traditional tutu. You just can't go wrong with that iconic, elegant design. The tight bodice, the flared layers of tulle, the pure white, and the soft pleats… *chefs kiss*. Perfect for a classic performance or even a sassy social media snap. My personal fave? Gotta be a hybrid tutu, blending elements from different styles. Imagine the dreamy romantic with a splash of modern flair, maybe a little more fitted in the bodice, or even a touch of unexpected colour in the tulle. Now that's a look that's sure to turn heads! But don't get caught up just on the style! For me, the best thing about Tutu Tuesday is the sheer joy of seeing all those talented ballerinas around the globe rocking their tutus with so much confidence. Seeing them twirling, leaping, and expressing themselves through dance is the best dose of inspiration. This Tutu Tuesday, I'm challenging all my fellow ballet babes, even the non-professionals out there, to put on their finest tutu and strike a pose! Take a photo, tag it #tututuesday and maybe even throw in some tips and tricks you've learned along the way. Let's celebrate the magic of ballet and share that passion with the world! Remember, it doesn't matter if you're a pro or just starting out, or if your tutu is a fancy-pants heirloom or a bargain-bin find, embrace the fun, show off your style, and get those feet tapping! Australia is alive with vibrant, energetic talent, so don't be shy, show off your love for the art and don't forget to keep that dance floor alive with those #tututuesday vibes. Now, where did I put that vintage tutu with the pearl embellishments? I think this Tuesday just got a lot more sparkly! Cheers!
