Bonjour from the City of Lights! 👋 It's Emma, your Pink Tutu Queen, back with post number 1130 from my Parisian adventures! 🇫🇷✨
The Eurostar whisked me through the countryside, a blur of emerald green and fluffy sheep, until I landed in Gare du Nord, a magnificent, old-world train station fit for a Parisian fairy tale! I'm a big fan of train journeys - so much more romantic than flying, wouldn't you agree? Plus, I can wear my pink tutu and dance down the aisles to my heart's content. (Yes, even on the Eurostar! Don't judge - the tutus always brighten everyone's day!).
This week's adventure? Paris, of course! I'm absolutely smitten with this city – its chic boutiques, grand buildings, and undeniable romanticism make it the perfect destination for a pink tutu-wearing girl! 🌸
Shopping for Parisian Flair:
I've already hit the streets in search of Parisian fashion. From the charming vintage shops in Le Marais to the designer boutiques along the Champs-Élysées, I'm in shopping heaven. I managed to snag a fabulous pair of sequined ballerina flats and a dreamy pastel pink silk scarf that screams "Parisian chic!" 💖
Of course, no Parisian escapade is complete without a new pink tutu! This time I went for a blush-toned tulle number with delicate floral accents. It's simply divine! 😍 (Keep an eye out for an Instagram post - I'll be modelling it soon).
Enchanting Performances:
Speaking of pink tutus, I have a date with the Palais Garnier Opera House later today! It's the setting of "The Phantom of the Opera" – an iconic story of love, music, and a little bit of spooky fun. My ballet teacher recommended the Paris Opera Ballet and said it is one of the best in the world - oh, darling, I can hardly wait! The thought of twirling ballerinas against the stunning backdrop of the Palais Garnier has me so excited I could burst. 🎭
I'm a huge fan of both ballet and theatre - and my goal is to inspire more people to explore their creative sides. After all, ballet isn't just about graceful moves – it's about expressing yourself, discovering new worlds, and spreading joy! You never know, you might even catch me in a pink tutu, performing on a Parisian street corner! (It's happened before! 😉).
Delicious Delights:
And what’s a Parisian adventure without the most exquisite food? This weekend, I'll be exploring the bustling street markets, searching for fresh pastries, fragrant cheeses, and mouth-watering croissants. The best part? They're all absolutely divine when eaten on the go, enjoying the bustling energy of Paris! 🥐🍷
Pink Tutu for the World:
My little corner of the world at www.pink-tutu.com is all about finding joy in life's little things, whether it's dancing down the street in a tutu, exploring a new city, or indulging in a delicious dessert. Remember, dear reader, there's a pink tutu inside all of us waiting to come out! Just like me, you're never too old, or too shy, to twirl with confidence! 🌸💃
Don't forget to catch me next Saturday for my next #PinkTutuBlogParis post - I've got exciting things planned, including a ballet class at a local studio in the Latin Quarter!
Au revoir for now! 💖
What’s On Today:
This weekend in Paris:
- Saturday 21st August – It's "Journée du Patrimoine" - a wonderful day where many of the museums and historical monuments offer free entry and guided tours! It's an incredible opportunity to explore the cultural heart of Paris! Don't forget your pink tutu, it goes well with history! 😉
