Tutu Tuesday in Feltham: A Whirlwind of Tulle and Style
Hey fellow fashionistas and dance enthusiasts! It's your girl, Olivia, back with another installment of my beloved "Tutu Tuesday" series, and today we're taking our pirouettes all the way to Feltham, a charming little town brimming with unexpected style and grace.
Feltham, you might say, doesn't exactly scream "fashion capital," but let me tell you, this little town has got a heart of gold when it comes to embracing all things elegant. You just need to know where to look, and my tutu radar is always on high alert!
The day began with a delightful breakfast at The Cafe on the Green. Their freshly squeezed orange juice paired perfectly with their flaky croissants - I'm talking a pastry that melted in my mouth!
After my sugary indulgence, it was time for some serious shopping. And where else would a tutu-obsessed fashionista go but to the bustling Feltham Market? It's a kaleidoscope of colours, scents, and sounds - a feast for all the senses! But let's be real, I was on a mission: to find the perfect tutu.
My first find was a dreamy tulle skirt, a shimmering blush pink, perfectly ruffled and just begging to be twirled in. A vintage-inspired classic, it was reminiscent of the grand ballet costumes I grew up admiring in countless dance recitals. It was an instant yes, and I couldn't wait to see it twirling on the dance floor.
Now, let's talk textures. The Feltham Market truly delivered in this department. My eye was drawn to a vendor showcasing hand-dyed silk scarves in an array of rich jewel tones. The feel of the silk was luxurious - it felt like it belonged on a runway, not a market stall. You know what they say: when in Feltham, do as the Felthamians do. I couldn't leave without one, and I already have a million ideas of how to incorporate it into my daily wardrobe, from tying it around my hair for a Parisian chic look to using it as a statement piece around a classic black dress.
My hunt continued with a stop at a charming little boutique called "The Attic." It's bursting with unique vintage pieces that could only be found in a place like Feltham. I snagged a pair of black leather gloves, their smooth leather feeling oh-so-stylish against my skin, and a stunning vintage broach. I adore how it brings a touch of antique elegance to any ensemble.
My afternoon culminated in a delectable lunch at "The Rose & Crown," a quaint gastropub known for its charming atmosphere and delectable dishes. Their shepherd's pie, rich and flavorful, hit the spot, and I savored it with a glass of Pinot Grigio. I couldn't help but feel inspired by the quaint and charming setting - just the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to twirl your worries away!
