Greetings, darlings!
It's your favourite pink-loving ballerina back in the city that never sleeps! The Big Apple. The Concrete Jungle. New York, New York! After a whirlwind week in the UK, where I graced Derbyshire with my presence and gave a masterclass or two, I'm back in my happy place, my fashion playground - New York City!
Let's face it, nothing beats the energy and sheer dynamism of this vibrant metropolis. The scent of street food, the cacophony of honking taxis, the pulsating life force of Broadway – it's all a whirlwind that sweeps you up and leaves you buzzing for more. And, of course, there’s no better place in the world to find the perfect pink tutu for a sassy dance session on the subway!
Speaking of subway shenanigans, this week's adventure kicked off with a journey to see the spectacular, mind-blowing, amazing show "Hamilton". I mean, did you see those costumes?! Honestly, it felt like I was watching the real revolution unfold on stage, right there in front of me! Every dancer was captivating, every costume an absolute stunner, and I was just utterly mesmerised.
But before I could completely lose myself in the musical mayhem, I had a bit of a fashion dilemma. As much as I love my pink tutu, the Hamilton theatre was all about sleek, stylish silhouettes and modern elegance. I mean, a tulle masterpiece would have felt slightly out of place amidst all that revolutionary swagger. But, did I let it stop me? Absolutely not! I pulled out my best vintage-inspired ballerina dress (think lace and bows, ladies, but with a hint of playful sparkle!), grabbed a fetching black clutch, and set off to wow the crowd. I must say, I turned heads on Broadway. My secret weapon? The trusty pink tutu, hidden discreetly beneath my skirt!
Later, I had the absolute delight of dancing in New York City itself! I've always found that the streets here have a particular energy, a palpable buzz that encourages you to move, to dance, to just embrace the world with open arms (and a perfectly-placed twirl!). So, I found myself gliding around Times Square, a vision in pink, surrounded by the bustling chaos of New York, while my Instagram followers watched in envy. Let me tell you, it’s a magical sensation to let your inner ballerina soar, even in the midst of the Big Apple’s concrete jungle.
The best part? My impromptu performance was a joyful testament to my simple philosophy: "Anyone can dance in a pink tutu, anywhere, anytime." And why not? There's something absolutely empowering about spinning around in a cloud of tulle, regardless of where you are.
Speaking of empowering, did you know that February 4th is the birthday of the fabulous Pinky (as I affectionately call her), the brilliant, pink-loving icon Cher. We owe so much to this woman, and I plan to celebrate by belting out a few of her iconic hits in my pinkest tutu while I shimmy around the streets of New York City. Stay tuned for the Instagram video!
