Bonjour, mes chéries! It's your favourite pink tutu-clad ballerina, Emma, reporting live from the City of Lights - Paris! I'm practically dancing through the streets, I'm so excited to be back in this magical city. This trip's extra special though, as it's all thanks to the amazing success of my latest ballet performance. Turns out, audiences love a tutu, especially a pink one! 😉
I've always dreamt of seeing the Eiffel Tower twinkling in the Parisian twilight, and let me tell you, it's even more stunning than I imagined. It's just so Parisian, so romantic. It even makes me want to learn some waltz steps! I can just picture myself twirling under the shimmering lights, a vision in pink tulle, with my own miniature Eiffel Tower holding my bouquet of French roses! (Don't worry, darling, it's just a daydream for now).
This is my 9th visit to this fabulous city and with each trip, I fall even deeper in love with its enchanting energy and charm. The cobblestone streets, the adorable patisseries, the quirky little shops bursting with Parisian flair - it all just makes me want to twirl and twirl until the day is done. I've already started planning my next tutu-licious outfits for the coming days - pink, of course, but with a touch of Parisian elegance. Imagine a ballerina pink dress with a chic beret, a whisper-light tulle scarf for the chilly mornings, and a pop of colour with a pair of bright pink ballet flats!
And speaking of fashion, it wouldn't be a proper Parisian adventure without a visit to the Galeries Lafayette! Honestly, I could lose myself for days in that stunning shopping haven! Imagine my excitement when I spotted a gorgeous vintage Chanel tutu - think softest, fluffiest pink, layers and layers of tulle, and a delicate chain belt. I'm wearing it with a crisp white shirt and some smart brogues to make the Parisian chic vibe work for a ballerina. Oh, and a sprinkle of pink glitter on my eyelids to really add some sparkle to this Parisian pink princess look!
But this adventure isn't just about shopping and twirling. It's about experiencing the Parisian art scene too. Last night, I caught a ballet performance at the Opéra Garnier - my Parisian fairytale dream come true! Seeing all those talented dancers swirling with such grace and artistry made me want to grab my own tutu and join in the fun!
For the week ahead, I have my eyes set on a couple of magical experiences. Today is all about soaking up the energy of the Latin Quarter and experiencing the local market with all its vibrant colours and aromas. And later on, I plan to catch a performance of Moulin Rouge. It's Parisian cabaret at its best - feathers, sparkles, and a healthy dose of saucy flair! The very essence of pink tutu perfection. I'm hoping it'll be an absolute feast for my eyes and, I might even have a twirl or two on the dance floor myself!
You know me, always seeking the ultimate pink tutu adventure. And what better place to find it than in Paris, the most beautiful, romantic, and artistic city in the world? Oh, and don't forget to check out my latest Instagram snaps @PinkTutuBlogParis! It's full of Parisian prettiness and all things pink!
So, darlings, keep on twirling and follow my Parisian adventures! Next week, we'll explore the charm of Montmartre and perhaps find a Parisian bistro for a little tea and macarons - how can we resist, right?
Until next time, remember to embrace the joy of pink, let your inner ballerina shine, and spread the pink tutu love wherever you go!
Love, Emma x
