Tutu Chronicles


Remember Kecil's ballet lessons? It is still currently on hold, as the teacher went back for holidays following her school age kids. Lack of lessons, however, does not mean a respite for Kecil's fascination. Or the hunt for the perfect outfit.

So it happened during our Summer Trip to Indonesia, we had to make a night's stopover in Singapore. And while we were having dinner at the mall, there it was, right across our seats that night, tutu skirts of various sizes and colors, including one in fuschia pink.
By the time dinner was over, this Mama so did not stand a chance against all the badgering and mini-food-strikes. So, we bought it. Anyway, Kecil looks kind of cute in it, or so this Mama consoles herself.

Since we got the tutu on our way to Indonesia, it did travel with us, but Mama did limit its use due to the washing requirement (handwash, or at least, in a net if using washing machine).
Once we got home and stuck inside thanks to all the thunderstorms, out came the tutu, and Kecil got on with her own version of ballet lessons.

Oh, and if I can direct your attention to her sunglasses, somehow it just made strange appearances for rainy days indoors, but not quite for sunny days outside. Real strange.



Once the rain stopped, however, it was time for walkies! And since it was outdoor, off went the ballet slippers and on came her heartsy pink boots!
You know, I have seen so many pictures of little girls in tutus and boots online, but I am quite sure that Kecil had never seen one before. I suppose certain things are just universal, huh? After all, the boot's practical nature is just the balance needed for the super frou frou tutu. On a humid afternoon, right after the rain.


The following day turned out sunny, so, again, we took the newly shaven Dog out for her daily walkies.
The weather was really kind of nice, which really encouraged the Little One to do all kinds of antics in her tutu and boots:

... climbing up the fence, dancing, posing.....

Of course, Mama was busy taking pictures.... Why, we even scored a keeper or two:


... not to mention meeting a friend on the way:


Hahaha.... It was a good walkie, in tutu and all. Here's for more pretty, photogenic walkies ahead! Cheers!
