Tutu Tuesday in Port Broughton, South Australia #tututuesday G'day, fashionistas! Your girl, Eliza, here, back with another Tutu Tuesday extravaganza. This week, I'm taking the tutus from the stage and onto the streets, and where better than beautiful Port Broughton, South Australia? Let's get into it! Port Broughton has this seriously cute little vibe. It's got that laidback, beachy charm with charming cafes and little shops with interesting treasures, but also that kind of small town magic you just can't get anywhere else. Now, let's talk about those tutus - we're stepping it up this Tuesday! We're talking about all sorts of tutu styles, from classic romantic tutus for the graceful ladies who love their flowing chiffon, to the dramatic, edgy tutu for the bold fashionistas, to even the more everyday ballerina tutu that you can rock for a coffee date or a wander down the main street. So, where did we start this journey? This little ballerina started the morning with a walk along the Port Broughton jetty, wearing my absolutely *stunning* vintage tutu with intricate lace details and flowing tulle. I’m talkin’ layers upon layers of floaty perfection that caught the sea breeze and moved like a graceful dance. Honestly, the sun glinting off that tulle felt absolutely magical! We can’t just skip the iconic beach! Port Broughton’s beach is amazing and so picture perfect for a tutu. The gentle waves crashing against the shore are like music to the ears and there's something really empowering about rocking a tutu and just feeling the ocean air on your skin! And guess what? I was lucky enough to meet this sweet family at the beach and they loved the whole tutu vibe, snapping a few pics for their Insta! Lunchtime arrived and I went for a classic but trendy look for a casual lunch at a cafe called ‘The Salty Seahorse’. My tutu was a more modern style, with sleek lines and a hint of shimmer. I teamed it up with a denim jacket and some comfy kicks for a touch of casual cool. Let’s just say, this place makes a mean latte, the sandwiches are huge and this was definitely the vibe that this cafe deserved! Oh and did I mention? The place is so cute and has some amazing murals – great photo opportunities! To continue the trend I’ve noticed of combining different styles – tutus work amazingly well with everything! – we decided to head to the Port Broughton Art Gallery, this beautiful historic building that is home to a treasure trove of artistic expression. While walking through the galleries I paired my tutu with a classy silk shirt and some statement jewellery. Now, don’t get me wrong – it still had that ethereal vibe going on, but the silky shirt just added a more sophisticated touch that felt super fitting. It's also the perfect opportunity for a little ballet pose with some striking, bold artwork in the background! Tutu-styling Tips Ok, let’s break this down – we’ve talked about tutus and the vibes they create, but if you want to join in the fun, how do you go about wearing a tutu, even if you're not a ballerina? • Be Bold, Be You: This is all about pushing your comfort zone, getting creative and adding a touch of whimsy to your outfits. • Don’t Be Afraid of Colour: Experiment with different shades and patterns – black tutus are so classic, but also look at bolder colours that make a statement! A pop of red? Bright turquoise? • Pair it with Your Essentials: I personally find that pairing a tutu with my trusty denim jacket adds a touch of that casual-chic look! Whether it's a relaxed button-down, a fitted knit, or a leather jacket for a more edgy feel – your choice. It all comes down to what makes YOU feel fabulous! • The Power of Accessories: Let's not forget about the little things that can add that extra *oomph*. Statement earrings? Cool sunnies? • Don't Be Afraid to Remix: It's not about getting your tutu right. It’s about remixing and letting loose! Try wearing a short tutu as a skirt with an oversized knit sweater or add a chic beret with your tutu, creating an artsy vibe! • Have fun with it! Honestly, there's nothing more fun than seeing people smile at your outfit or getting compliments on your amazing tutu look. Enjoy it!
