Tutu Tuesday in Hammersmith: A Celebration of Swirling Skirts and #tututuesday
Oh, Hammersmith, how I love you! You’re the epitome of a vibrant London hub, with a beating heart full of art, culture, and… tutus? Well, at least for this Tuesday! It's officially Tutu Tuesday, a day dedicated to all things frilly, twirly, and yes, even a little bit cheeky! I wouldn’t be caught dead without my tutu today – and trust me, it’s a sight to behold.
Before I launch into my outfit deets, I have to give a quick shoutout to the genius who dreamt up this amazing trend. Tutu Tuesday was started by a bunch of London-based dancers who just wanted a day to celebrate their love for the iconic dancewear. And honestly, who can blame them? Tutus are practically synonymous with grace, elegance, and of course, the sheer joy of dance.
Okay, enough rambling, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty. Today's tutu is a real stunner: a classic, three-tiered Romantic tutu in a soft blush pink. The delicate netting, so perfectly billowy, gives it an air of whimsical charm, while the simple silhouette ensures all the focus stays on my graceful moves (or at least that’s the idea!). It's one of those pieces that simply makes you feel confident and ready to take on the world, or at least a well-attended dance class!
The perfect outfit to go with this glorious confection? Why, a simple white t-shirt and a fitted black blazer, of course! The classic combo makes for a polished look that's perfect for daytime wear, while the blazer adds a touch of sophisticated edginess. A pop of color with some fuchsia-toned pumps, and a chunky gold chain around my neck completes the ensemble.
For those of you who are just dipping your toes into the tutu waters (pun intended!), don’t be afraid to get creative! Tutu Tuesday isn’t just for ballerinas – it’s a day for everyone to embrace their inner child and embrace their love for twirling.
- Want a playful, boho look? Try a tulle skirt in a bold colour paired with a simple crop top.
- If you’re after something a bit more glamorous, a black, classic tulle skirt can be elevated with a chic sequined top or a dramatic, feathered jacket.
- For those who want to stay in the comfort zone, opt for a tiered tutu with a simple top and trainers. Think comfy but stylish.
Hammersmith has been abuzz with Tutu Tuesday energy! It's amazing how many people are getting into the spirit – we’ve got tutus in every style imaginable. Some are rockin' vibrant pink, others are embracing elegant black. And then, there’s my fellow dancers…well, let’s just say it's a tutu paradise!
If you’re in Hammersmith today, make sure to check out The Ballet Centre – it's a true gem for all things dance, with amazing teachers and stunning facilities. You might even catch a glimpse of me doing some pirouettes! (Fingers crossed they go better in real life than on social media!)
As for the hashtag… well, it’s #tututuesday! This fun and vibrant trend isn’t just about dressing up; it's a way to spread some cheer and encourage a bit of whimsical fun. So go on, get out there and embrace your inner dancer! Even if it's just a twirl in the park, remember, there’s no wrong way to participate in #tututuesday!
