#PinkTutuBlogNYC Monday 2016-04-25 she danced in New York City

Hello darlings! It’s Emma here, your favourite pink tutu-wearing ballerina, bringing you post number 1090 from the vibrant heart of New York City! Can you believe it's already April? Spring has sprung, the flowers are blooming, and I'm absolutely bursting with excitement, ready to dance my way through the Big Apple!

For those who are new to my blog, welcome! I'm a passionate ballet dancer from the quaint little county of Derbyshire, England, who believes in spreading the joy of ballet and all things fabulous! I dream of inspiring the world to embrace the beauty of pink tutus – because what's life without a touch of whimsy, right?

As many of you know, I fund my adventures through the magic of ballet, performing in enchanting shows wherever my pointe shoes take me. This week, I'm bringing you a whirlwind tour of my NYC escapades – from dazzling shows to charming shops, there's nothing quite like this amazing city!

This week began with a quick hop on the metro, that fascinating web of underground tunnels that pulsates with the energy of this bustling city. A true NYC experience, don’t you think? My bright pink tutu certainly stood out against the usual shades of black and grey, bringing a splash of colour to the everyday commute.

Speaking of colour, my wardrobe has been bursting with the hues of springtime! You simply can't escape the joyous hues of blooming florals and bold pastel shades – it's simply infectious! The city feels alive with optimism, like a colourful bouquet waiting to be explored.

My weekend started off with a truly incredible treat - a visit to the Big Apple Circus! What a wonderful blend of laughter, acrobatics and breathtaking performances! You truly haven’t seen colour until you’ve seen a dazzling display of juggling pins illuminated in every colour imaginable.

However, my heart belongs to the Broadway stage. And there's nothing more exhilarating than being surrounded by the dazzling energy of the Theatre District! The sheer spectacle of lights, music and the raw passion of the performers always leave me in awe. This weekend I indulged in a sensational performance of "Cats", a truly mesmerising masterpiece that reminded me why I love theatre so much. The incredible costuming, captivating music and captivating storytelling just pulled me in – pure magic!

It wouldn't be a New York adventure without indulging in some delightful fashion finds. I've been mesmerised by the city's vibrant fashion scene, from the classic sophistication of Madison Avenue to the quirky independent boutiques of Brooklyn. Every street corner offers a treasure trove of styles, each with its own unique charm.

And of course, I couldn't resist indulging in some of my own "Pink Tutu" additions to my wardrobe – a tutu-licious pink and gold clutch, a dazzling pair of crystal ballet flats and a whimsical floral print skirt, ready to bring a touch of springtime joy to my every step. It's all about feeling beautiful, confident and ready to embrace the world, one twirl at a time!

A weekend in New York isn't complete without experiencing the vibrant rhythm of the city itself. On Saturday, I ventured to the heart of Central Park, that magical oasis of green nestled amongst the towering skyscrapers. It's truly breathtaking! I savoured the sunshine, breathed in the fresh air, and felt my creative spirit blossom surrounded by such serenity. I even enjoyed a spot of ballet practice, spinning and twirling amongst the foliage - such a wonderfully tranquil escape.

And if you're ever in the city, you have to take a stroll across the Brooklyn Bridge – a real architectural wonder that captures the spirit of New York! I spent a blissful afternoon strolling alongside the bustling streets, relishing the energy of the city that never sleeps. You truly feel the heart of New York beating beneath your feet – a heady blend of hustle and bustle, dreams and ambitions.

My days here are filled with endless adventures – from ballet classes with renowned teachers to impromptu street performances in Times Square! It's an inspiring symphony of creativity and joy, where every corner brings a new surprise.

What truly inspires me about New York is the sense of possibility - the constant reminder that dreams can become reality with a little bit of dedication and a whole lot of pink tutu magic!

So here’s to my favourite city in the world, my home away from home! Until next Monday, my dearest readers, remember: life's too short to wear boring clothes. Let's dance our way into the week!

Until next Monday!

Yours in pink tutus, Emma
