Tutu Tuesday in Cleethorpes: A Fairy-Tale Adventure in a Glittery Tutu

Hey darlings, it’s your girl, Ballerina Bliss, and I’m about to share a totally fabulous tale about a day filled with tutus, glitter, and unicorn dreams. This past Tuesday, Cleethorpes became the ultimate destination for every ballerina and sparkly unicorn fan – because it was Tutu Tuesday, baby!

Picture this: the bright, bubbly sunshine hitting the promenade just right, making the candy-coloured houses sparkle like a sugar-coated gingerbread village. Now, imagine this scene adorned with ladies twirling in tutus, their colourful, feathery concoctions billowing in the gentle breeze, the most delightful explosion of tulle and sparkles this side of the River Humber! This was not just any Tuesday in Cleethorpes – this was Tutu Tuesday!

There I was, feeling like a real-life ballerina straight out of a classic ballet – minus the fancy footwear, but I was definitely rocking some sparkly ballet pumps! As I stepped out into the dazzling daylight, I saw the most adorable, shimmering tutus. I’m talking frills, layers upon layers of glittery goodness. I saw every imaginable style from classic ballet tutu, elegant tutus with sparkling lace, romantic fluffy ones with bows, sassy ruffled tutus with sequins that sparkled under the summer sun – a tutu dream come true! And yes, a unicorn tutu was a definite sight – the perfect blend of pastel rainbows, and fluffy magic – it was a Tutu Tuesday unicorn moment for sure!

It’s one thing to see beautiful tutus, but when they come alive with dance and laughter – well, that’s magic, honey. The atmosphere was electric, charged with excitement, laughter, and the undeniable magic of twirling in a tutu! Even the seagulls were enchanted! Every so often a particularly brave one would soar above, flapping its wings in what seemed to be a delighted ‘hooray’ to the dazzling display!

The fun didn’t end there, darling! As the sun was setting, bathing the beach in a warm glow, we had a magnificent flash mob ballet. I was surrounded by like-minded tutus wearing gals and gents who, let’s be honest, were way more graceful than this awkward but happy bunny. The ballet to disco beats, the giggles, and the total carefree fun. The beach became our stage! You really felt like you could do anything with that shimmering sparkle flowing in the salty air.

So, if you're feeling the need to embrace your inner ballerina and sparkle, I implore you: Join me, my darling! Cleethorpes is where you'll find tutu love. And hey, it doesn’t have to be a Tuesday! Rock that tutu, channel your inner unicorn and be your most fabulous, dazzling self!

Tutu tips to make Tutu Tuesday epic!:

• Pick a tutu you LOVE – one that shouts 'look at me'! There’s one for everyone – go for romantic, sparkly, or go big with extra ruffles! It’s about unleashing your inner dance queen.

• Grab a glitter-filled pouch. Trust me. I know that feeling – all of the ‘what-if I-have-to-pop-the-bathroom’ panics. Let’s avoid that – be glitter-ready, baby.

• Don't be shy. You never know what adventures lie ahead – a spontaneous tutu party, a magical disco dance with new best friends – this is a call to celebrate all things sparkly. So, do what I do, darling: Grab your tutu, smile, laugh, and enjoy the magic that’s always in you, and yes, embrace the inner sparkle and twirl for joy.

And, here’s what I discovered:

Unicorns really exist! Or at least the spirit of magic does, when you wear a unicorn tutu - and that, darling, is something really special.

Life’s too short for boring Tuesdays! There's so much joy to be had.

Glitter is, truly, life. You can never have enough. Seriously, don’t ever forget that. It’s all the life energy we need.

Cleethorpes has shown the world that every day can be a magical, sparkle-filled adventure. It's proof that a little glitter, a few twirls and some fabulous fun can make even a Tuesday extra special. It’s just as easy as saying #tututuesday and #unicorntutu !
