Bonjour, my darlings! It's Emma here, back from another exciting week of adventures and I am absolutely thrilled to be writing to you from the City of Lights! That's right, I've hopped on the Eurostar, grabbed my pinkest tutu, and landed right in the heart of Paris! Can you imagine how divine the journey was? Whizzing through the countryside in that beautiful train, feeling the gentle sway of the carriages, and dreaming of the magical adventures awaiting me in Paris - a real fairy tale come to life!
Of course, no journey to Paris would be complete without my trusty companion: my tulle! 🎀 This week, it's a light and airy pink number that billows beautifully as I walk the streets. You'll see plenty of photos and videos throughout the post, as always, so you can get a glimpse of the incredible looks I'm putting together for the Parisian streets.
As I type this, I'm actually sitting at a charming cafe in the Marais district, sipping a perfect French coffee (that's how much I love Paris, I'm even writing in French! C'est magnifique!), watching the world go by, and planning my weekend. Paris is like a magical maze of hidden gems, with each twist and turn leading you to a new wonder, and I'm on a quest to discover them all!
This Week's Programme:
So, what's on the agenda for this Parisian escapade? Let's just say it's a whirlwind of ballet, shopping, and more!
Thursday
Train to Paris! The Eurostar always gets my heart racing, feeling the excitement of a new destination.
Friday:
"L'Opéra Garnier"! I can't go to Paris without attending a performance at this grand, iconic theatre! I'll be seeing the exquisite Giselle tonight - my excitement is at fever pitch!
Saturday:
La boutique hop is absolutely mandatory, right? The vintage stores in Le Marais are calling my name with their beautiful finds, so I'm on a mission to hunt for some stunning Parisian finds! Maybe I'll find some beautiful silk scarfs or even a vintage pink tutu!
A picnic in the Tuileries Gardens! After a day of shopping and soaking up the Parisian vibe, a picnic in the most iconic park is exactly what I need. A little bit of cheese, bread, and of course, the most important addition: a generous sprinkling of fairy dust! 😉
Sunday
Parisian street performances! The City of Lights is renowned for its fantastic buskers, dancers, and performers, and I can't wait to discover them. I'll be keeping an eye out for talented street ballet dancers! Perhaps even someone who will show me their best pirouettes.
"Le Château de Versailles"! The ultimate in opulent elegance, a trip to this gorgeous palace is non-negotiable!
What to expect in this post:
Fashion and Shopping: You know I can't resist showcasing the latest and greatest trends. Expect my Parisian outfit finds, styling tips, and my latest tutu creations!

- A little bit of inspiration: Because what better than to be inspired by the Parisian way of life, filled with art, culture, and passion for the beautiful things?
Here's how I make these amazing adventures possible:
My travels are made possible by the beautiful and challenging world of ballet. From dazzling performances in beautiful theatres, where I'm earning a living and my way through this whimsical journey of a lifetime, to classes and workshops, I pour my passion and energy into the art form that sets my soul on fire. The world of dance fuels my travels and keeps my passion for discovery, performance, and the joy of making art alive.
So, without further ado, let's begin! Come along on my Parisian adventure and join me as we explore the magic of Paris! And who knows, perhaps a little pink tutu inspiration will even sprinkle into our travels… Because there’s nothing quite like dancing through Paris in a beautiful pink tutu. It really does feel like I'm waltzing through a fairytale.
