Pink Tutu Blog: Paris Post #250 - Saturday, 2004-10-09 - Parisian Dreams in Pink

Bonjour, mes chères ballerinas! It’s Emma, back from a whirlwind Parisian adventure, and oh my, you simply must hear about it. Paris, the City of Lights, the City of Love, the City of… pink tutus? Perhaps! 😉

This weekend was all about exploring the magical streets of Paris. I made the trip via Eurostar, whizzing through the countryside like a graceful ballet dancer in motion (and no, I wasn't wearing my tutu, though I'm sure it would have caused a sensation). My trusty tutu suitcase was packed with a vibrant selection of pink ensembles, ready for my Parisian debut!

Paris has this way of captivating your heart, of wrapping you in a warm embrace of romance and history. The moment I stepped off the train at Gare du Nord, I felt that familiar thrill of adventure, the desire to embrace everything Paris has to offer, from its charming cafes to its breathtaking architecture.

As a ballerina at heart, my first stop had to be the Palais Garnier, the magnificent opera house that inspired the iconic Phantom of the Opera. Just walking through those grand halls, imagining the stories that had unfolded within its walls, sent shivers down my spine! The gilded interiors, the majestic chandelier, and the sweeping staircases… pure magic.

Speaking of magic, the day was filled with beautiful performances. The afternoon saw me dancing with my feet firmly on the ground, at a stunning ballet performance at the Théâtre du Châtelet. A modern masterpiece that had me utterly spellbound. And as always, it fuelled my passion for sharing this beautiful art form with the world.

The evenings in Paris were all about the glitz and glamour, my darling! I couldn't resist exploring the charming boutiques lining the chic Parisian streets, a treasure trove of sartorial delights. It's like Paris is a fashion magazine come to life, brimming with elegance and a playful Parisian twist. Of course, my heart fluttered when I found a darling little boutique tucked away in a side street, overflowing with the most glorious pink accessories. A new pink tutu headband for me, of course!

Oh, the food! The baguettes, the croissants, the deliciousness that is Paris. Even the simplest coffee tasted divine as I enjoyed it with my new pink headband on, a little treat after a day of exploring and dancing.

I felt so incredibly inspired by the energy of Paris, it's hard to even put into words. The city feels like a living, breathing organism, always pulsing with creativity and beauty. And of course, I shared my experiences on my blog, www.pink-tutu.com, where I documented my journey with photos, thoughts, and Parisian dreams.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, darling, I need to dash and start prepping my next blog post, detailing the extraordinary vintage clothing shop I discovered – an absolute paradise for a pink tutu aficionado like myself. Until next Saturday, au revoir!

Bisous,

Emma
