Tutu Tuesday in Middleton, South Australia #tututuesday
Hey darlings, itâs your girl, Chloe, back again for another dose of tutus and twirls! Today weâre celebrating the fabulous fashion that is #tututuesday, right here in beautiful Middleton, South Australia! Now, I know what youâre thinking: âTutus? In Middleton? Whatâs going on?!â
Well, let me tell you, Middleton has been rocking the tutu game for ages, you just gotta know where to look! Now, while you wonât find us doing pirouettes on the beach (although, imagine the Instagram shot!), we do have a thriving arts community. There's even a gorgeous little dance studio called âBallet Bloomâ that pops up every summer for the kids and a few die-hard enthusiasts like me. But seriously, I'm thinking of starting a âTutu Tuesdayâ meet-up group!
This little corner of paradise may not be your typical tutus-and-tights hot spot, but thatâs what makes it so exciting! Here, tutus are more than just a dance outfit, theyâre an opportunity to inject some colour and sparkle into your day. I mean, letâs face it, who doesnât love a little bit of frill and flair, especially in the midst of a sun-drenched summer?
Think about it: you can slip on a fluffy pink tutu, complete with sparkly details, to stroll down the coast, look smashing in your sunshine-yellow tutu as you head to the local bakery, or maybe even rock a glamorous black tulle tutu for a night out at the local pub! Oh, and letâs not forget about the practicalities - with our weather in Middleton, itâs breezy on most days and tutus can definitely serve as your wind protection!
Where to find the perfect Tutu for Middleton's Summer
You know, it's funny how things work out in this beautiful, small town! I just found a treasure trove of tutus tucked away in the back of my mumâs old dance studio stuff - some from when she used to dance in the Adelaide Ballet! Thatâs where I got the amazing, vintage black tulle number I was rocking today! Itâs like wearing a little bit of history! But honestly, I could share my best tutu secret spots and it wouldn't be enough. Iâve heard tell of a shop called "Ballerina Blooms" in Adelaide (about an hour's drive!) where they sell tutus for a bargain and let you get creative!
I love getting inspired by different styles and thereâs definitely no âone-size-fits-allâ tutu rule, which makes it all the more fun. Whether you prefer classic, romantic, whimsical, or edgy styles, thereâs a perfect tutu out there waiting for you! For Middletonâs breezy summer, Iâd say anything from the breezy cotton or chiffon, romantic pastel tutus are perfect for a stroll on the beach to a bold, short-style black tulle that I have for night outs!
Styling the Perfect Tutu Look for a South Aussie Summer
- Coastal Chic: Pair a floaty, light-colored tutu with a flowy linen top, a pair of espadrilles or flip flops, and a straw hat. Maybe throw in a beach bag and some statement sunglasses, and youâre ready to embrace the summer vibes!
- Casual Cool: A relaxed denim jacket or oversized sweater with your favourite tutu. Rock your sneakers for a super casual look, perfect for running errands. A small, trendy satchel bag will complete the look.
- Nighttime Glamour: Grab that sleek black tutu (like the one I'm rocking today), a silky blouse, and some killer heels. Don't forget statement earrings, and a clutch! Don't be afraid to add some bold lip color! Youâre ready to steal the show, Middleton-style!
