Bonjour mes chéries!
It’s Emma here, your favourite pink tutu wearing blogger, and today I'm beaming from Paris! I’m back in the City of Lights and my tutu is twirling with excitement! This week, my Paris adventure began with a delightful journey on the Eurostar, zipping through the French countryside and arriving in Gare du Nord. Honestly, who can resist a bit of train travel? Especially when your destination is so dreamy.
And now, with my trusty pink tutu gracing the cobblestone streets of Paris, it feels like I'm stepping right out of a fairytale. I am absolutely, utterly in love! My week is packed full of ballet, theatre, fashion and fun, so grab a croissant, pour a glass of vin rouge and get comfy as I share my Paris adventures.
This Saturday is packed - a whole day of discovering new treasures. We kicked things off with a delicious Parisian breakfast at a little café in the Marais. It was filled with the most delicious pain au chocolat (two!), a pot of tea and a croissant as big as my head. But I knew my journey through Parisian delights was only just beginning!
Ballet bliss at the Opera Garnier:
We strolled over to the Palais Garnier for an absolutely unforgettable performance of 'Giselle'. Oh my word! The grandeur of the opera house was simply breath-taking, from the intricate chandeliers to the velvet-covered seats. The ballet itself was divine! It was a true testament to the art of ballet and the grace of the dancers.
Tutu shopping time:
After the show, we indulged in a little shopping spree at a charming boutique called "Danse Féérique". The shelves were filled with colourful tulle, shimmering sequins, and ballet-inspired clothing, enough to satisfy even the most discerning tutu aficionado! You know I couldn't leave without picking up a new pink tutu for my collection – naturally!
A splash of theatre at the Théâtre du Châtelet:
For the evening, we headed to the stunning Théâtre du Châtelet to see the world-famous cabaret show "Crazy Horse". Oh my! The performers were simply sensational! A night of high-kicking glamour, glittery costumes, and sheer talent. This show definitely lived up to the hype. It’s safe to say I'm still wowed!
A magical day in the City of Lights
Tonight, I’m dreaming about the shimmering city lights, the sweet melodies of Paris, the artistry of the performances, the delectable food and the undeniable joy of twirling my tutu through the cobbled streets.
I hope my Paris adventures have filled your day with a sprinkle of fairy dust! Don't forget, there's always something special to find in the City of Lights, even if it’s simply the joy of dancing your own unique Parisian ballet!
As always, be sure to follow my adventures on social media @pinktutublogger for behind-the-scenes snapshots and a glimpse into my pink-tutu-tastic world! And join me next Saturday, same time, same place (right here, on my website!), as I continue to explore the magical city of Paris!
Bisous, Emma xoxo
