Hello my gorgeous pink tutu loving readers! It's Saturday, and you know what that meansā¦ a brand new Pink Tutu Blog post, fresh from Paris!
I've arrived in the City of Lights, darlings! My EuroStar journey was oh so chic - a smooth, stylish, and perfectly pink-hued adventure (the little compartments where they keep your luggage are actually very pink). The EuroStar train really is like a mini fashion show on wheels - imagine my excitement, tutus were absolutely everywhere. It seemed as if everyone was getting ready for a chic Parisian adventure!
Now, where to beginā¦ It's simply magical! The moment my feet touched Parisian cobblestones I could practically feel my creative juices bubbling. Paris feels like a gigantic stage, a constant show with an orchestra playing in the background, filled with captivating stories around every corner! My pink tutu, shimmering in the midday sun, couldnāt be a better partner for this incredible ballet!
As you know, my journey to Paris wouldnāt be complete without my usual mix of Ballet, Fashion, andā¦ naturally, more pink tutus!
Friday Fun: The Ballet is Calling!
Paris always manages to leave me utterly captivated. Yesterday, I indulged in my ultimate Paris pastime - seeing a glorious performance at the OpĆ©ra Garnier. My goodness, it was pure magic. Every step was graceful, every gesture poignant, every detail a work of art! The performance, āThe Sleeping Beautyā (how utterly perfect!), transported me into a fairytale. I swear I could practically smell the flowers and feel the soft touch of the princeās velvet suit.
Parisian Adventures for Pink Tutu lovers!
You know, I love a good "Parisian Day Trip," and I know you love them too, darlings. Todayās itinerary is full of those little joys that make Paris so utterly captivating:
- Le Marais: Chic Shopping with a Twist
- You know I adore the intricate artistry of the Marais district. So many boutiques, independent designers, and little charming shops - absolutely bursting with vintage fashion treasures and quirky French trinkets. This is where I am likely to pick up the perfect accessory for my ballet bag. Did I tell you I found a pair of fabulous earrings yesterday?
- The bakeries in Le Maraisā¦ they truly are a must-see. The smell alone will have you waltzing into a croissant dream. Letās not forget the exquisite pastries!
- Shopping: Fashion heavenā¦with a pink touch!
- I couldn't leave Paris without adding some beautiful new items to my wardrobe! A stunning pink vintage dress from a vintage shop in Saint-Germain-des-PrƩs has found its way home with me! Let's just say, it'll be the envy of every pink tutu-wearing ballerina in Derbyshire. I might also pop into Printemps or Galleries Lafayette for a little browsing - there's nothing quite like a Parisian department store, it's like a dreamland of fashion and beauty!
- Ballet Inspiration: Stepping onto Parisian Dance Floors!
- I always make time to feel the magic of Parisian Ballet studios - where elegance and creativity flow like a graceful dance. Just walking through their grand halls, imagining dancers twirling, sets my creative juices flowing!
- Afternoon Delights: Finding that Perfect Parisian Tea Time!
- Afternoon tea in Paris is a true spectacle. I found a lovely little tearoom tucked away in the Latin Quarter and, of course, ordered my tea served with beautiful little pastries and delicate finger sandwiches. Just a tiny morsel, but enough to sustain this pink tutu dancer for the evening.
Fashion Fun: Itās Pink-tastic, Baby!
My Parisian look, naturally, involves pink - I mean, what else would it be! Today, my wardrobe boasts a soft baby pink dress with a full, twirling skirt (almost a tutu!), and a delicate blush-toned shawl. This darling combo allows me to glide through the cobbled streets in true Parisian chic - without missing a beat. My feet, naturally, are adorned in a pair of delicate ballet pumps, their satin fabric reflecting the beautiful Parisian sunlight.
Oh, my sweet pink-tutu loving darlings, Iāve already discovered so many beautiful hidden gems and captivating corners of this incredible city. I can't wait to share more adventures with you next week! Stay tuned, darlings!
Love,
Emma
