Tutus Spotted – Even car companies are featuring fairies!

I spotted a very cute fairy bouncing around in her tutu in a car advert recently and have added it to my growing collection of tutus spotted in advertising.

Although VW are now only showing the shorter edited version of this advert on the telly, I did a quick YouTube search for the full advert and found it straight away. I really like this advert (as far a car advertising goes, it’s quite nice!) and I find myself getting a little emotional at the end, especially as my brother and his wife are expecting their first child this summer. As a family of VW enthusiasts who already own a few Dubs including a campervan, I wonder if they’ll buy their child a Polo for their first car after seeing this advert?! Anyway, here it is:

Ballet inspired photography by Peter Coulson

I have recently discovered this collection of images by famous fashion and art photographer Peter Coulson and simply adore the craziness of these photos featuring model Tara Hurster.

Over the past year we’ve seen many more photo shoots featuring a ballet theme and tutus, thanks to the success of critically acclaimed film Black Swan. This set of images features Tara Hurster wearing a head-to-toe explosion of tutus and the result is one of the more eccentric interpretations of ballerina style that I’ve come across in recent months!

New York ballet style from Natalie Portman & Drew Barrymore

New mum Black Swan star Natalie Portman and mum-to-be Drew Barrymore both rocked up at the New York City Ballet Spring Gala at The Lincoln Centre this weekend. And both stars looked über-elegant in top-to-toe tulle!

As the face of Miss Dior Cherie Portman unsurprisingly wore a tiered Christian Dior gown and wore the ultimate ballet accessory on her arm – her dancer and Black Swan choreographer husband Benjamin Millepied. And my favourite actress Drew Barrymore chose ballet-pink accessories & makeup to complement her angelic flowing white Chanel frock (which emphasised her blossoming baby bump!).

Lovely ballet-style fashion without looking like they’ve fallen into the dressing-up box – Well done ladies!

Tutus Spotted – Advert for McDonalds

My mum texted me to tell me about this McDonalds ’Mascotathon’ advert – Shoes & tutus in one advert = my heaven! Here’s some frames from the advert:

I’m also impressed that McDonalds are giving away pedometers with their Happy Meals to get kids moving – I want one for myself! Here’s the full advert if you want to take a look for yourself:
