Hello my lovely tutu-tastic friends! It’s Emma, your resident Pink Tutu Princess, back from another exciting adventure! Today, I'm bursting with joy because, well, guess where I am?! Yep, you guessed it – LONDON! And wouldn't you know it, my weekend starts off with a BANG – I'm here for the whole weekend, and I've got so many pink-tastic things planned!
Let me take you back a bit... this morning, I woke up in my cosy little cottage in Derbyshire (where I still can't get over how many sheep I can see from my window, adorable!) all raring to go. The first order of business? Pack my pink-hued essentials (because let’s be real, everything looks better in pink!). A splash of lipstick, my sparkly ballet shoes, and my favourite floral print dress - perfect for navigating the London streets in style. Oh, and let’s not forget my trusty pink tutu!
After a hearty breakfast (which involved pancakes – because let's be honest, I live on a diet of ballet and pancakes!), I set off on my journey. Train travel – it's simply magical, wouldn't you agree? Nothing beats watching the world whiz past while sipping a cheeky tea (or two!). Plus, let’s face it, a pink tutu is always a talking point on the train, which is always fun. Just think of the lovely conversations it sparks!
London, you never disappoint! As soon as I stepped off the train, I was enveloped in the bustling atmosphere of the city, and trust me, I’m already falling in love all over again. It's funny how even the sound of the London Underground feels familiar and exciting after all this time.
Speaking of familiar and exciting... I always know that every Friday is the perfect time to be in London because – drumroll please – the West End shows are bursting with magic! It’s always been a dream of mine to make a career in London’s vibrant West End and there’s no better place for inspiration than taking in a performance at one of the magnificent theaters. Today, I’m going to catch ‘[Insert a current West End show name here, check a schedule online].’ Can’t wait for that post-show feeling – it’s just electric!
Oh, and speaking of the magic of the stage, did you know there's a fabulous street dance competition happening today? Now, if that doesn't scream “London,” I don't know what does. So much energy, talent, and passion in one place. If you’re ever in the city and looking for something dynamic and totally unique, definitely check out some street dancing – it’s sure to inspire!
Later on, my lovely fellow tutu-lovers, it's time to hit the shops! I know exactly where I’m headed – [Insert the name of your favorite London fashion boutique or a shopping district – Covent Garden, Oxford Street]. Shopping in London is an experience, from the big names to the hidden gems, you’ll be guaranteed a fun time. Remember to be on the lookout for all things pink – you’ll be surprised what you find. Oh, and keep an eye out for my Tutu of the Week on PinkTutu.com next week - you know I'll be shopping!
By the way, what are your go-to shopping haunts in London? Share your secrets below in the comments, my little tutu-tweens. And maybe you’ll find me rocking my tutu and rocking out in London, because I definitely enjoy taking my outfit inspiration from you all!
Tonight, it’s back to the theatre to catch a performance at the Royal Opera House. Nothing is more beautiful than a night of ballet! Even with all the dazzling shops and exciting performances, London never loses its ability to inspire and charm.
Remember, there’s magic in the ordinary, and you don’t have to be a professional ballerina to wear a tutu and be full of fun, passion and pink-tastic adventures. So keep on dancing, keep on dreaming and keep those pink tutus twirling!
Love and sprinkles (because London is literally a fairytale!)

Here’s a little more about my London Adventures for those who are just discovering my blog.
If you’re a fashion lover, a ballet buff, or just a bit of a dreamer with a passion for life, then you’ve come to the right place. Welcome, my lovely tutu-tweens! I'm Emma, and this blog is a chronicle of my life as a travelling ballerina and pink tutu devotee! I explore the world through a pink-tinted lens, finding joy and adventure wherever I go! This blog isn't just about London; it's a journey around the globe, through dance studios, beautiful boutiques and bustling markets.
Since I'm a bit of a travelling ballerina, I live on a budget of pancake breakfasts, carefully chosen vintage tutus, and all the dance performances I can muster up. So, why tutus, you ask? Well, let me tell you... it's a lot more than just a dancewear staple – it’s about spreading joy! It's about confidence, expressing your unique self and bringing a bit of whimsical magic into the world!
If you’re ready to get into the pink spirit, join me for my Friday adventures, where I explore the best bits of each city I visit. My aim is to inspire you to unleash your inner ballerina and maybe, just maybe, encourage everyone to give the pink tutu a try!
I hope you’ll stick around! And feel free to say hi! You can find me on [Social media channels/link].
