Tutu Tuesday in the Gold Coast, Queensland: It’s more than just a dance #tututuesday
Hey lovelies! It's your girl, Ava, here, bringing you all things tutus and twirls on this glorious Gold Coast day. Tutu Tuesday, as you all know, is a weekly celebration of all things tutu. And when it comes to tutus, the Gold Coast is seriously stepping up its game.
Today, I want to chat about why I'm obsessed with the whole Tutu Tuesday movement. Because it's not just about ballet anymore, my dears. It's about expressing yourself, embracing your inner ballerina, and spreading joy - no matter if you've taken a class in your life or not! And in a city as vibrant and alive as the Gold Coast, you bet there's a Tutu Tuesday for every personality.
- Classic Romantic: Picture the traditional tutu - flowing layers of tulle, the ethereal feeling, that fairytale princess vibe. Perfect for a picnic by the beach or a stroll along the Broadwater.
- Modern Chic: We're talking fitted bodices, statement necklines, tutus that play with the lines of your body in the most flattering way. These beauties look great in the city, with an edgy look, a splash of color or even sequins for that night out at a restaurant.
- Whimsical Wanderlust: There's something undeniably freeing about twirling in a full-on fluffy tulle tutu! We're talking bright colours, a tutu that's as much a statement as it is comfortable, perfect for wandering through the streets of Surfers Paradise or hitting the local markets.
- Effortless Everyday: I love that the tutu world is branching out beyond the stage. There are tutus for EVERYBODY. I'm seeing more and more women wearing tutu skirts, layered tulle over jeans, a pop of tutu in their everyday look. And honestly? It's genius!
