Whitley Bay, a town that embraces the fantastical, was abuzz with tutu-clad fashionistas on a glorious, sunny #Tututuesday. As a ballet dancer with a penchant for pink, sequins, and a whole lot of sparkle, I was practically born for #Tututuesday. You see, it's not just about a simple tutu - it's a statement. It's a shout to the world that you're not afraid to be a little bit extra, a little bit magical, a little bit *unicorn*.
So, how do you make your tutu extra-special on a day dedicated to tutu brilliance? Let's get into the details. The tutus, of course, were the centrepiece, ranging from the classically elegant to the gloriously outlandish. There were tulle-tastic creations, ballerina-esque ones with delicate ruffles, and the fabulously-fluffy full-on tutu that made you feel like a fluffy pink cloud. But here's where it gets really interesting. These tutus weren't just any tutus. They were infused with unicorn magic.
Now, let's dive deeper into this unicorn inspiration. Unicorns are my personal favourite - they're pretty, magical, and symbolise all that is good in the world. But how do you add that unicorn sparkle to your Tutu Tuesday ensemble? There were sequins emblazoned with little unicorns, shimmering horn headbands, holographic tutus that gave off a kaleidoscope of colours just like the unicorn's horn, and a whole lot of *magic dust*. But what made it truly magical was the *energy*. It wasn't just about the clothes. It was the spirit, the vibe, the attitude that was the real unicorn power.
I strutted through Whitley Bay like a pink and sparkly vision. The town was a flurry of tutu-tastic joy. It's not every day you see a sea of shimmering tulle dancing in the wind. People stopped, pointed, and grinned. There were compliments on my tutu, which had the most wonderful shade of iridescent pink - like the sky after a summer thunderstorm - and the delicate sequin unicorn horn that adorned the waistband. There was even a tiny child who called me a princess! Who knew that a little pink tutu could spark so much joy?
There were so many unique and creative looks. From the super stylish vintage ballet tutu with a sassy red sparkly top, to the more modern look featuring a flowing sheer tulle skirt, which danced around the wearer like a summer breeze, to the absolute must-have in Tutu Tuesday outfits - the disco glitter, and sequins - you couldn't fail to be in a good mood. It was the ultimate celebration of all things fabulous and sparkly!
I was drawn to a group of dancers from a local ballet school. Their tutus were all uniform and crisp, reminding me of the days when my passion for ballet was just beginning to ignite. One girl was twirling and dipping with a big pink and white tutu. The bright colours looked like they could have been right out of a whimsical fairytale. And it really did make you want to whirl, and pirouette.
There was a father wearing a matching pink tutu to his little girl - a truly lovely moment and testament to the magical spirit of #Tututuesday. It reminded me that tutu Tuesdays are about embracing the fantastical and the magical in our lives and celebrating a little bit of fun, laughter, and joy - every Tuesday.
