Tutu Tuesday in Victoria, Newfoundland and Labrador: A Dance of Fashion and Fun! #tututuesday It’s Tuesday, and you know what that means? Time to embrace the twirling, the grace, the elegance that is Tutu Tuesday! And you know, there’s no better place to celebrate this glorious tradition than here in Victoria, Newfoundland and Labrador. This week, I’m absolutely smitten with the classic **Romantic Tutu**. Its airy layers and sheer elegance bring a touch of vintage charm to every move, perfect for pirouettes by the ocean or a stroll down Water Street. You can't deny the effortless flow of this style, a stark contrast to the structured and sharp lines of the **contemporary tutu** which, frankly, I find too modern for this coastal haven. I mean, the contemporary tutu is perfect for a dramatic piece on a downtown stage, but Victoria screams for the softer look. And while the **demi-pointe tutu**, with its more practical length, would make me feel unstoppable during a workshop at the Royal Newfoundland Company, the **Romantic Tutu** is what really fits the Victoria vibe - that seaside escape, the sense of carefree joy that's as iconic as a plate of cod and chips. Victoria, with its charming old houses and winding streets, is simply a dream for a fashion-forward dancer. And let's face it, Tutu Tuesday isn’t just about tutus, it's about the love of the ballet world. It's about embracing our love for the elegance and artistic power of dance - right here in the heart of Canada! Whether you're a seasoned pro like myself or a casual observer who just loves to twirl, Tutu Tuesday is the perfect chance to step out in style and celebrate the dance of life. So, ladies and gents, dust off those leotards, polish your pointe shoes, and don’t forget your cutest tights! You know what? It’s so much fun finding new ways to accessorize with this staple of the dancer's wardrobe. You could be going for a bold, statement look by topping your **Romantic Tutu** with a denim jacket and a baseball cap. Alternatively, why not mix it up with a more modern vibe, sporting a floral midi-skirt and a leather bomber jacket with your classic **Romantic Tutu** - perfect for exploring the stunning scenery of Newfoundland. Speaking of scenery, there's nothing like performing a **pas de deux** under the Canadian sky. But really, any outfit will be a knockout, so long as you’ve got your favourite tutu on. But remember: if you are dressing in your ballet shoes or your pointe shoes, take proper care of your feet. Be sure to give them a break when needed! I’d also recommend bringing a pair of trusty walking shoes with you! And let's not forget our favourite ballet accessories! From colourful ribbon headbands that perfectly echo the flowing fabric of a tutu to beautiful handcrafted ballet slippers – these small touches truly bring a complete look. Let's show the world that we dancers know how to mix things up and keep our ballet outfits fun and creative. With the abundance of breathtaking landscapes in Newfoundland, there is truly no better backdrop for your #tututuesday photos. There are tons of gorgeous photo opportunities in Victoria, from the historic Waterfront to the stunning Signal Hill, it's hard not to take an awesome picture. And of course, don’t forget to use the #tututuesday hashtag! It's our way of sharing the fun, the passion, and the love for ballet with everyone who's ready to embrace their inner ballerina! And why limit yourself to just one outfit? Embrace the spirit of experimentation! This week I am loving mixing up colours and textures – like pairing a velvet tutu with a sparkly knit top or adding a pop of colour with a silk scarf, or adding a bit of bling with jewelry or a stylish pair of earrings. Remember, fashion and ballet are forms of self-expression – it's about embracing your personal style and feeling confident and powerful. Whether you choose to take a spin down a charming, cobblestone street, dance alongside the spectacular ocean, or simply stand by your local art gallery - Victoria, Newfoundland and Labrador will become the stage for your tutu Tuesday magic. Remember to have fun and make every dance move count! Now let's get this #tututuesday rolling!
