Hello my darling dears! It's Saturday, which means a new blog post! This week I'm writing to you from the most romantic city in the world - Paris! Can you believe it? My pink tutu and I have landed in the heart of Parisian magic, and I am simply thrilled!
EuroStar Romance
My journey began in my home county of Derbyshire, England. I boarded the EuroStar train with a skip in my step and a twirl in my heart. Honestly, what’s better than a train journey? The view flitting by, the gentle rhythmic chugging, and of course, my essential pink tutu for travelling! It was like something out of a film, especially with the charming Parisian scenery appearing from behind the window as I got closer to my destination.
Pink Tutu in the City of Love
Landing in Paris Gare du Nord felt like stepping into a dream. The bustle of the station, the gorgeous old architecture, and of course, the delightful French charm, all swirled together to make me feel like a little princess. I knew that Paris was going to be a delightful adventure, and let me tell you - my intuition did not let me down!
Fashion Fiesta!
Of course, I had to head straight for a little retail therapy - it's a girl's gotta do it, isn't it? Firstly, a chic beret to complement my Parisian chic style! Then, I hit the streets, the cobblestones under my feet, to explore all the delightful boutiques. Parisian fashion, as always, is beyond dreamy.
A Tutu-tiful Moment
Naturally, the highlight of any Parisian outing has to involve a tutu, right? I am not one to be left out when it comes to fashion, and so I took the chance to visit the famous Opéra Garnier. Imagine, a real-life theatre where ballet dreams come true! As I entered the theatre, my eyes were met with the dazzling gold and red decor. I was like a little ballerina lost in a magical world, and of course, I just had to twirl for a moment under the glistening chandelier.
Dancing into the Evening
No Parisian adventure is complete without an exquisite show! My evening was a delight at the renowned Moulin Rouge. I was transported by the sparkling red mill, the glittering can-can dancers, and the sheer magic of it all. Of course, I found a touch of pink in their performance too, a hint of that sweet ballerina charm even amongst the flamboyant feathers and costumes!
Parisian Cuisine Delights
Of course, what’s a trip to Paris without some divine French cuisine? I indulged in the most delicate pastries - éclairs, macarons, oh my! Every bite was pure heaven. I'm already dreaming of those delectable cakes, oh là là!
From the River to the Eiffel
A Parisian day isn’t complete without a stroll along the Seine, with the majestic Eiffel Tower standing proudly in the distance. The riverbanks were bustling with life, people from all corners of the globe, united by the magic of Paris.
Memories Made in Pink
Paris has completely stolen my heart! Every corner I turn, every street I wander, every bite of a delicate pastry - every moment feels so beautiful and romantic! It’s no surprise that Paris is called the city of love; it really does make you feel as though anything is possible!
My trip has already filled me with such joy and inspiration. I am sure to bring back a piece of Parisian magic with me to Derbyshire, and I can't wait to share more of my adventures with you next week!
What are your dreams? Share them with me below!
Until next time, my darling dears,
XOXO, Emma
