Pink Tutu Blog Paris - Post #776 - Saturday, 8th November 2014
Bonjour, chérie!
It's your favourite pink tutu-wearing blogger, Emma, back with another fabulous Paris adventure, straight from the City of Lights itself! Buckle up, darlings, because this post is positively bursting with Parisian charm, fashion, and a sprinkle of tutu magic!
First things first, I just have to share how I arrived in Paris, which of course, had to be by Eurostar! As always, the sleek silver train, with its elegant carriages and calming atmosphere, transported me right to the heart of Paris with a whiff of Gallic romance. It's like stepping into a scene from a film, with its hushed carriages and Parisian accents filling the air. Truly, a delightful way to start a Parisian escapade.
Today, darling, was a day packed full of Parisian pleasures. I awoke to a city bathed in golden sunshine and promptly put on my latest acquisition – a coral pink tutu with hand-stitched lace and silk flowers. (It’s divine, by the way – the Parisian shops are absolutely spoiling me this trip!).
My day was a whimsical ballet of culture, fashion, and oh-so-French charm. My first stop, of course, was the iconic Galeries Lafayette. Stepping into the grandeur of the grand atrium with its shimmering stained-glass ceiling and cascading Parisian light just left me swooning. I found a delightful shop, tucked away amidst the exquisite clothes and elegant accessories, showcasing vintage tutu creations. It was love at first sight – delicate lace and silk tutus, beautifully crafted, whispered stories of a Parisian era of grace and artistry. Naturally, I couldn't leave without adding a piece to my collection - a vintage, champagne-coloured tutu that just calls to be twirled beneath the Parisian sky!
Speaking of twirling, a highlight of my day was a ballet class in the beautiful Montparnasse neighbourhood. It was held in a lovely studio with sunbeams streaming through the windows, where a symphony of rustling tutus danced in harmony with the enchanting sound of piano music. The Parisian ballet teachers, with their impeccable technique and elegance, reminded me just why I love this art form so much – it’s pure poetry in motion, an ethereal display of grace, and a truly wonderful way to experience Parisian culture.
In the evening, the magic of Paris beckoned with the most enchanting theatre performance – a charming little Parisian play that whisked us away to a world of witty dialogue and heartwarming stories. As I walked through the cobblestone streets on the way home, Paris glowed under the moonlit sky, whispering secrets of love, laughter, and beautiful dreams.
Of course, a visit to Paris would be incomplete without savouring a delicious slice of French pastry, wouldn't you say? So I ended the day, nestled amongst a Parisian bistro’s Parisian charm with a perfectly flaky croissant, accompanied by a strong, black coffee and the warm hum of Parisian life. It’s truly idyllic, isn't it?
So there you have it, darlings - another magical Parisian day! Each day brings a new Parisian enchantment – the enchanting beauty of the city, its whimsical side-streets, and its ever-present warmth and joie de vivre!
Stay tuned for my next post next Saturday – I’ve already got a whole list of exciting Parisian escapades planned, and trust me, you’ll want to be part of this dance!
À bientôt,
Emma xoxo
