Stockport Tutu Tuesday: Unicorns, Disco, and Tutu Dreams

Hello fellow tutu-loving friends! It's me, your local ballet-obsessed fashionista, back with another fabulously fun instalment of #Tututuesday!

Now, Stockport, you know how much I love a good Tutu Tuesday. And this week, let’s be honest, I'm all about the whimsical and sparkly – unicorns, disco beats, and those oh-so-fabulous tutus that make you twirl just a little bit faster!

Because sometimes, life is just too serious. So let’s throw on our pinkest, most glamorous tutus and embrace the magical power of tutus, unicorn horns, and the groovy vibes of disco! You know, all the good things in life, in a tutu-shaped, sequin-studded package.

Now, as a ballerina, I’m all about classic, flowing tutus, those beautiful Romantic or Principal-style tutus – they’re perfect for twirling, pirouettes, and capturing all the ballet-ing vibes, of course. But there’s always a place for a little experimentation!

Today, it's a bit of both: the classical tutu gets a modern makeover with a dash of sparkle and a healthy dose of unicorn magic.

So, I decided to get creative for Stockport #tututuesday. We’re taking a tutu spin down memory lane - think sequins, shiny tights and a touch of shimmer! This week's look? It's a dreamy unicorn-inspired, tutu extravaganza!

And don't you even think about saying 'It's all a bit much!' because this Tutu Tuesday is ALL ABOUT unleashing our inner disco diva! Stockport, are you ready?

My tutu of choice for today? It's a little number I call "Rainbow Sparkle". Imagine this: a classic ballet tutu with layers of soft, flowing tulle but with a pop of vibrant colours. I’ve added pastel hues -think delicate pinks, purples, blues – you know the whole whimsical rainbow vibe. But that's not all. The star of the show? The shimmering, glittery sequins woven into the tulle. So glamorous, it's almost magical. And when the light catches it... oh my gosh! Like a hundred miniature disco balls.

For footwear? I'm going with a classic ballet flat, with a slight glittery twist! Nothing too extravagant, you want something to give a subtle shimmer with every twirl! Now, to bring that unicorn flair to life?

Now, onto the headpiece - because no Tutu Tuesday is complete without the perfect hair accessory! You gotta make it look like you just stepped out of a magical fairytale! My crown of choice? A gorgeous unicorn horn headband, crafted with the same sparkly pink and purple hues found in my tutu. Let’s face it: this unicorn headband is like the princess version of an animal print crown!

The look is a beautiful ballet-disco mashup and a pinch of unicorn magic – think ballerina on a cosmic catwalk! You're ready for some glitter-filled fun!

Oh, and how can we forget the music? Now, let’s dial it up a notch and throw some disco magic in. You know we love disco tunes. I’m all about ABBA’s ‘Dancing Queen’ and Donna Summer’s ‘Hot Stuff’! These tunes are an absolute must for your Stockport Tutu Tuesday! They’re the ultimate celebration of confidence and twirling and... glitter. So let's just say these tracks were created with twirling, tutu-wearing unicorns in mind.

To tie it all together, here are a few top tips for rocking your very own Unicorn Tutu Tuesday look in Stockport (because let’s be honest, it’s a thing we need to make happen!). Top Tips:

  • Let those twirls be your calling card – and make those twirls fabulous! Embrace your inner princess – make it whimsical, colourful, and don't be shy about the sparkle.
  • Embrace your unique style and put your own flair on this look, because no two unicorn tutus are created equal, right?
  • Remember, we are all unicorn princesses. Believe in the magic, Stockport – the magic is just around the corner!

    I want you all to strut your stuff in those fabulous tutu creations, dance your way through Stockport, and unleash the unicorn within.
