Hello my gorgeous fellow tutu enthusiasts! It's Friday, the sun is shining (well, sort of), and I'm in London! 🩰💖
You know me, I just can't resist a good train journey. The rhythmic clatter of the wheels, the soft whoosh of the air as it rushes past the carriage windows - it's all so calming. It’s a little bit of magic every time, and I can't think of a better way to start an adventure.
This weekend is all about London, darling. My latest performances were a resounding success (more on that later!), and that means I have enough pink pound notes to spend a few days indulging in London's finest treats. Think dazzling fashion, captivating shows, and oh, yes, a delightful dose of pink, of course.
Now, I'm writing this from the window seat of a quaint cafe near King's Cross station – that glorious monument to railways and dreams! It’s like a scene straight out of a Victorian novel, wouldn't you agree? I had the most divine tea with honey and lemon – just what I needed after a brisk walk through the bustling streets.
London, You’ve Got My Heart
Let's be honest, there's nothing quite like a London adventure. This city just pulses with excitement – history whispers from every cobbled corner, street performers amaze with their talents, and even the pigeons have a touch of elegance about them (well, maybe not, but you get my drift!).
But let’s get to the exciting part. What's on my agenda today?
First stop is a visit to the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A). It's one of my favourite places to soak in inspiration – a grand display of beautiful textiles, incredible design, and a wealth of art and culture. I can't wait to get lost in the fascinating exhibitions!
This afternoon I'm off to Trafalgar Square. My dear sister is arriving this afternoon and she loves those fluffy pigeons, so we’ll be making a pit stop to feed the birds before venturing to Westminster for a delightful dinner and some sightseeing.
Now, what London experience is complete without a visit to a theatre? This evening, we are seeing a matinee performance of Mamma Mia!. Don't get me wrong, I adore the classics, but you can never go wrong with a joyous dose of ABBA and glitter. It's the perfect way to end a busy day.
Outfit Alert
It's going to be a whirlwind day so I needed an outfit that’s comfortable yet effortlessly stylish. I'm rocking a stunning floral printed skirt paired with a soft lavender top and my trusty pink tutu - of course! 🩰
And for an extra pop of colour, I've chosen my new pair of coral-coloured ballet pumps with shimmering pearl details. 👠 I love adding a touch of sparkle and whimsy wherever I go!
Ballet Buzz
My recent ballet performances at the Derbyshire Royal Theatre went down a storm. We showcased an amazing collection of new pieces – a beautiful mix of contemporary and classical ballet – and the audience absolutely adored it. The feeling of connecting with the audience through dance is pure magic!
I'm so grateful for the support from the local community. It’s thanks to your love for ballet that I’m able to fuel my London adventures!
Keep up the Pink, My Tutu-ettes!
So there you have it, another exciting week in the life of your favourite tutu-loving blogger! I'm already planning next week's adventures – more ballet shows, captivating art, and definitely more shopping! 🛍️
Don't forget to check back in next Friday for more pink-tastic escapades. Until then, embrace your inner ballerina, keep shining your pinkest selves, and remember, it’s never too late to put on a tutu and twirl!
Lots of love, and big, pink, twirling hugs! 💖
