Tutu Tuesday in Inverleigh, Victoria: A Tutu Tale for the Ages
Hey gorgeous girlies!
It’s your favourite ballerina, Sarah here, coming at you live from the charming town of Inverleigh, Victoria. Now, let’s get real, ballet is hardly the first thing that springs to mind when you think of this sleepy little town, but that's what makes today's Tutu Tuesday extra special, alright!
This week, I decided to ditch the usual fancy dance studio and take Tutu Tuesday to the streets, or should I say, the dusty little lanes of Inverleigh.
I rocked up in a fabulously floaty, powder-pink tutu (totally giving off that vintage ballerina vibe), and I must say, the look really turned heads. Even the sheep in the nearby paddock seemed mesmerised! You can tell I've been channelling my inner prima ballerina and let's just say, the locals haven't seen anything like this.
First up, we stopped by the Inverleigh General Store. The owner, a delightful old chap named Barry, looked utterly stunned. "Well, bless your cotton socks, darling," he said, adjusting his spectacles, "That's certainly a first for Inverleigh." He was all smiles though, even cracked a joke about his daughter wanting to do ballet as a kid. You can tell there’s a good heart under those rough and tumble work boots!
Next, I hit up the local bakery. Now, everyone knows a ballet dancer has a sweet tooth, so it’s only fitting I indulged in a gorgeous homemade raspberry lamington – a total classic! I couldn't resist snapping a pic with my lamington in front of the cute little bakery window – it was pure Insta-gold. And trust me, this lamington, paired with my tutu, was definitely the epitome of sweet and graceful.
Later, we wandered around the quaint little town square, and the sun was beaming down - just like it usually is in this beautiful part of Victoria. And of course, I couldn't leave without a photoshoot with the local landmark – the gorgeous 150-year-old church! A beautiful, old, white building. It just screamed classic ballerina! And for my photo, I decided on a pose that echoed that timeless, ballerina grace, hands resting gently on my tutu. Now, that was a picture worth a thousand likes!
By the end of the day, I'd managed to spread a little bit of Tutu Tuesday magic across Inverleigh. I'd given everyone a chuckle, made some new friends, and even discovered some pretty fantastic cake. It goes without saying that this day really solidified my belief that tutus truly belong everywhere, even in the most unexpected places! So remember, ladies, keep dancing your hearts out, no matter where you are, because that tutu can totally make any place feel a little bit more magical!
Here's to many more Tutu Tuesdays in unexpected places – what do you think? Should I take the tutu adventure on the road?
P.S. I am going to start a trend: you can bring your tutus on the road with you. I call it "Tour-De-Tutu", It'll be fabulous and make every tour you go on magical. What a great marketing tool for tour companies? You could even hold some competitions along the way, whoever has the most spectacular and unique tutu in every town they go to wins some prize - maybe free tickets to a show at the end.
