Bonjour mes amies!
It’s Emma here, reporting live from the City of Lights - Paris! The sun is shining, the Eiffel Tower sparkles in the distance, and my heart is overflowing with joie de vivre. This week, I took the Eurostar, which I'm a bit obsessed with – who doesn't love a quick, comfy journey through the Channel Tunnel? I have to say, arriving in Paris station with a perfectly coiffed bun, a blush-pink tutu, and a spring in my step just felt divine.
It’s so great to be back in Paris after a few months away, you guys know how much I adore this city! And it’s especially exciting because I'm on a little Parisian mission this trip. Can you guess? Of course, you can – I’m on a quest to share my love of the pink tutu with the whole world, one Parisian step at a time!
Now, my blog usually drops on a Saturday, right? But today, the Saturday, 30th July, is the ultimate date night for a ballerine-in-training like myself, it's Ballet Day! A day where the city truly transforms into a swirl of pirouettes, leaps, and the sweetest melody. So, naturally, my pink tutu was calling me to explore its magical heart.
Ballet Day, Where Dreams Take Flight
So I grabbed my darling new Chanel bag (a little birthday treat from myself - you deserve a reward every now and then!), slipped on a matching pair of fuchsia ballet pumps and waltzed out of my hotel. You wouldn't believe how many locals are rocking tutus already – it seems I might have started a trend!
I began the day with a breathtaking performance at the Palais Garnier. The artistry was exquisite, and the tutus! You guys wouldn’t believe the twirls and sparkles! Afterwards, the streets themselves seemed to thrum with the rhythm of ballet. Street dancers in all their glory performed for eager audiences. The energy was electrifying, the colour breathtaking – and everyone, whether professional, enthusiast or simply charmed, wore a pink tutu! This is Paris – it embraces everyone!
Fashion Fiesta: The Champs-Élysées
A little ballet on a Saturday in Paris calls for a touch of luxury, am I right? The Champs-Élysées, shimmering under the sun, whispered to my senses, calling me to unleash the inner shopaholic. Oh, the delightful shops - from Louis Vuitton's exquisite window displays to the luxurious world of Dior. What is it about Paris and clothes?! I just couldn’t help myself. I splurged on a pair of delicate pearl earrings and the cutest little blush pink ballet-themed clutch. And let's be honest, any day that includes a new pink tutu (I couldn't resist the lure of a dazzling number with shimmering pink sequins – it was begging to take centre stage!) is a good day in my book.
Charming Dinner by the Seine
After my delightful shopping spree, my taste buds were calling out for a true Parisian treat – a delicious, romantic dinner overlooking the Seine. The lights twinkled on the water, casting a magical spell on the river. I even spotted a little troupe of street dancers by the riverbank, their pink tutus glowing in the moonlight – how romantic!
My little Parisian getaway is simply brimming with enchanting moments – every cobblestone street, every Parisian window, and every captivating performance whispers "Emma, you are in a fairytale!". There’s so much to explore here and with so much going on – I'm a little busy enjoying every single second! But of course, I will share more magical moments from my trip in the coming week. Stay tuned, my lovely readers, for more adventures in Paris and oh, how exciting – perhaps even the unveiling of my very own Pink Tutu fashion line! (Fingers crossed, you guys!)
Until next week, darling, embrace your inner tutu, dance through your day and always remember, in life, we must twirl and sparkle like a ballerina!
Bisous,
