Tutu Tuesday in Saint-Paul, Quebec: A Whirlwind of Tutus and Canadian Ballet! #tututuesday It’s Tuesday, and you know what that means! It’s time for the most fabulous, frilly, and fabulous day of the week: Tutu Tuesday! And for this week’s tutu extravaganza, I'm taking it to the streets of beautiful Saint-Paul, Quebec! Saint-Paul is a historic gem tucked into the heart of Quebec City, overflowing with charm, cobblestone streets, and some serious Parisian vibes. So, what could be more perfect than showcasing my love for tutus and Canadian ballet in this whimsical and enchanting setting? Before we get to the tutus themselves, let's talk about why this Canadian girl is a passionate devotee to tutu Tuesday. Ever since I was a little kid, I have dreamed of dancing, leaping and twirling my way through life, and Canada is home to a thriving and inspiring ballet scene. From the iconic National Ballet of Canada, known for its exquisite classical ballets to independent companies like Ballet BC, known for pushing boundaries and innovation. Our ballet scene truly has something for everyone. So, let's dive into the tulle, the ruffles, and the undeniable magic of Tutu Tuesday in Saint-Paul! From Romantic to Contemporary, Saint-Paul Embrace Tutu Variety! This week I was feeling super inspired by the sheer elegance and intricate details that Saint-Paul offers. To match the romance of cobblestone streets, I decided to wear a classic Romantic tutu. It’s beautifully layered, with billowing tiers of soft, sheer tulle, creating a dreamy, floating look. I think it's like an elegant ballet cloud swirling around me as I explore Saint-Paul’s historic and enchanting atmosphere. However, I think it’s important to acknowledge that tutus are not just about flowing, classic elegance. The dance world is ever-evolving and contemporary tutu styles, while still showcasing grace, can be just as fun! Here are a few that caught my eye on my Saint-Paul excursion: * **The Asymmetrical tutu** - It’s bold and edgy, with a uniquely layered and often shorter silhouette. You can even find asymmetrical tutus featuring modern materials like mesh and silk, offering a mix of femininity and cool vibes! * **The Layered Tutu**- Not just romantic tulle, layering has taken tutus to the next level! I saw a tutu that took classic and gave it a little edge. It was an explosion of tiers, mixed and matched with chiffon and organza. **Saint-Paul Street Style- Tutus Hit the Streets of Saint-Paul** After soaking in the beauty and charm of Saint-Paul, my heart was ready for a full embrace of Tutu Tuesday. And you know what? This town embraced the whole spirit! Walking the historic streets, I encountered a kaleidoscope of creativity. A few folks even joined the #tututuesday festivities! There was this couple, rocking a playful, matching tutu look with their babies sporting tiny tutus too! It’s always fun to see a community embrace a little whimsy and celebrate life in its fabulous fashion! Let’s Take Tutu Tuesday To the Next Level!
