Tutu Tuesday in Hammersmith - #tututuesday
Oh, darlings, where do I even begin? It’s officially Tutu Tuesday in Hammersmith, and the streets are absolutely awash with pink! From the shimmering pink unicorn tutus to the sparkly, iridescent tutus with the frothy ruffles, it’s like a disco ball exploded in the best possible way. Seriously, the energy here is as vibrant as the colors of the tutus!
I love how #tututuesday allows us to unleash our inner ballerina - and our inner unicorns, of course! We're talking about tutus in all their glory - classic, romantic, and yes, even some sassy, punk-inspired tutus with a bit of edgy glamour thrown in. I've been dreaming of a sparkly, romantic tulle tutu since I was a little girl watching Baryshnikov in Swan Lake! Of course, a good tutu is always going to have a bit of disco, especially with its shimmering colors and flowing movement, But this Tutu Tuesday is a unicorn overload because my pink-loving heart simply can't resist a tutu topped with a magnificent horned unicorn.
I, of course, had to get my tutu on. As soon as the clock struck midnight (well, 9:30 AM, but close enough!), I flung on my hot pink tulle tutu, grabbed my magic wand - because every ballerina needs a little sparkle and sorcery, you know, - and hit the streets. And lemme tell ya, it was pure joy! Everyone was buzzing with the energy of glitter, sequins, and, of course, unicorns.
The best thing about Tutu Tuesday is the sheer unadulterated fun. It’s a day where we can embrace our inner child and play with fashion with no judgment. Just happy faces and sparkling smiles! Seriously, everyone's like, "Oh, you look lovely! I love your tutu!" And everyone else is saying, "Omg, where did you get that unicorn?" Honestly, it's like a festival of magic, glitter, and pure, joyful silliness.
Some highlights from the day:
- The woman I saw in a pink and purple ombre tutu twirling at the bus stop (I almost forgot to get off!)
- A man rockin' a blue tutu with his baby in a matching unicorn-themed outfit. Now, that was serious father-daughter tutu twinning.
- This one little girl who came running up to me with the brightest smile on her face. She just looked at my tutu and screamed "You look like a magical princess!". (And yes, that's my inner child squealing at those words! ).
Honestly, it's days like these that remind me that there’s still magic in the world - a magical pink tutu at a time! And believe me, darling, you won't want to miss the next Tutu Tuesday in Hammersmith, because it’s a party that ends with twirls, smiles, and a little touch of unicorn magic!
