#PinkTutuBlogNYC Monday 2017-11-13: Tutu-ing Up the Big Apple!

Greetings, fellow twirling enthusiasts! ๐Ÿฉฐ

Emma here, your pink-loving, tutu-wearing ballerina from Derbyshire, England. I'm so thrilled to be back with you today, ready to whisk you away to the whirlwind that is #PinkTutuBlogNYC. This week, it's all about New York, New York - the city that never sleeps, and frankly, neither do I when there are so many fabulous ballet shows, shops, and sights to be seen!

This is post number 1171 for my New York City blog, which you can find every Monday on my website: www.pink-tutu.com. I'm determined to share the magic of this extraordinary city with you all, one pink tutu-clad adventure at a time!

A Ballet Blitz on Broadway

You know me, I can't resist a good ballet show! So naturally, this weekend, I ventured to Broadway to catch "The Nutcracker." As the lights dimmed and the music started, I found myself transported to a magical world of snow, sugar plums, and of course, twirling ballerinas. The dancers were simply stunning, with leaps that soared to new heights and spins that sent shivers down my spine. There was something truly enchanting about watching a beloved Christmas classic come alive right before my eyes.

Tutu Time: Exploring Fashion in the City

No trip to New York is complete without a little retail therapy, and trust me, I'm a shopaholic at heart! Today, my mission: to find the perfect tutu for a performance later this week at a charming little theatre in the heart of Manhattan. You see, my tutu-wearing is not just for fun; I love using my passion for ballet to bring joy to others, whether it's a casual twirl on the subway or a professional performance.

After hopping off the metro (the best way to explore this vast city!), I made my way to a charming boutique nestled on a quiet side street. Amongst the rows of velvet gowns and chic dresses, I stumbled upon the most stunning tutu, a riot of pink feathers and glittering tulle, designed specifically for performance. It felt like destiny! As I twirled before the mirror, I could picture myself on stage, showcasing its intricate detail and captivating design. This is what makes shopping in New York so much fun; you never know what hidden gems you'll uncover.

Ballet Class: Staying on Pointe

No ballerina can resist the call of the barre! While I love exploring all the incredible sights and sounds New York has to offer, my dance training is non-negotiable. I managed to squeeze in a drop-in class at a beautiful studio just off Fifth Avenue. The energy was infectious, and I learned some new techniques from an inspiring teacher. Even the other students were all smiles and giggles as we pushed each other to reach new heights.

There's nothing quite like sharing the passion for dance with other ballerinas, no matter what stage of their journey they are on. It's a true sense of community, and I love finding that feeling in the most unexpected places, even amidst the chaos of the city.

The Subway, My Second Home

Let's be honest, navigating the bustling streets of New York can be a real challenge! But thankfully, there's the trusty, reliable subway that crisscrosses the city like a web of magic, connecting every corner and providing a comfortable ride in the midst of the frenzy.

The best part of the New York subway? It's a free fashion show! You'd be surprised at the diversity and creativity on display, from edgy streetwear to perfectly polished ensembles. It's like a running montage of New York's vibrant and diverse spirit, reflected in the wardrobes of its people. And trust me, my pink tutu never fails to spark conversations and smiles among fellow commuters. It's my way of injecting a little magic into everyday life!

Onward to New Adventures!

My week in New York is just getting started! There are more shows to watch, more tutu shopping to be done, more subway rides to take, and most importantly, more moments to capture for you, dear readers. This city always leaves me feeling inspired and energized, ready to twirl through life with a smile and a tutu!

So keep your eyes peeled for next week's #PinkTutuBlogNYC, where we'll be exploring more of the city that never sleeps. Until then, remember: every day is a chance to spread some pink tutu love, and to bring a little joy to the world through dance.

Stay twirling, stay stylish, and stay tuned!

Love,

Emma
