Bonjour, darlings!
It’s Emma here, and welcome back to my little corner of the internet – Pink Tutu Prague! It's Wednesday, and that means it’s time for a fresh dose of all things pink and twirling. This week, I'm back in the magical city of Prague, ready to share all the fairytale adventures and, of course, my latest pink tutu finds!
So, where to even start?! As you know, Prague is a city of fairytale charm. Think cobblestone streets, enchanting architecture, and the gentle chime of bells echoing through the air. It's like stepping straight into a ballet scene, and I have to confess, I've spent a good deal of time twirling and feeling like a ballerina amongst the majestic castles and winding waterways.
#PinkTutuMoments in Prague
Before I tell you all about the mesmerising ballet performance I saw yesterday, I have to share some of the #PinkTutuMoments that have captured my heart this week.
Firstly, my wardrobe is in absolute pink heaven! This city is a shopaholic's dream, filled with independent boutiques overflowing with gorgeous pieces. My latest discovery is a beautiful antique lace top that's perfectly vintage. It’s in a shade of rose that would make even the most passionate flamingo envious! I simply can't wait to pair it with my most voluminous pink tutu and strut my stuff in the heart of Prague!
Speaking of struts, let me tell you about my first foray into Prague's enchanting Old Town Square. It was a beautiful, sunny afternoon and the cobbled squares were buzzing with life. It was a picture of vibrant colours, the aroma of roasted chestnuts wafting through the air, and a plethora of delightful trinket shops begging to be explored.
I even encountered a local street performer who, would you believe it, was actually playing a classical piano piece! It was like stepping back into a time capsule of music and art. The feeling was pure magic, and let me tell you, my twirling reached new heights.
Prague Ballet - A Twirling Extravaganza
Of course, no trip to Prague would be complete without experiencing the renowned ballet scene. This past Wednesday (a beautiful April evening, it was) I headed to the magnificent National Theatre for a breathtaking performance of The Nutcracker.
Now, I know, The Nutcracker is a classic. It's a ballet that holds a special place in our hearts. I saw it when I was a little girl, and seeing it again here in Prague brought back so many warm, fuzzy feelings! This time around, however, it was like experiencing it with fresh eyes, each beautiful set and each elegant move from the dancers felt new. I found myself swept away by the magic once again.
What really made this performance even more magical was the theatre itself. It was pure extravagance. Every intricate detail, from the shimmering chandelier to the plush red velvet seats, oozed old world glamour and sophistication. It was like being transported to a magical time, an era where graceful ballets danced with candlelight.
Travel Tidbits and Pink Tutu Wisdom
On a practical note, I have to share my journey getting here. This time, instead of my usual tutu-clad flight, I decided to take a journey by train. It was such a charming experience! We snaked through picturesque countryside dotted with charming little towns. There’s something utterly enchanting about travelling this way, seeing the world from a different perspective.
Oh, and guess what?! I managed to snag a window seat – the perfect spot for admiring the scenery. And it goes without saying that my pink tutu and I turned heads all throughout the journey! After all, what is life without a touch of twirling?
And to all my dear followers who have been wondering: yes, I found the most amazing pink tutu boutique tucked away on a charming cobbled street in Prague! The tutu was crafted by a talented artisan, adorned with exquisite beading and a flurry of soft feathers – truly a ballerina’s dream. I'm picturing myself in a whirlwind of pink, twirling under the Czech moonlight, oh what a fairytale dream!

#PinkTutuInspiration - A Word From Derbyshire
Before I go, I must share a bit of inspiration. A dear friend from Derbyshire, the land of green hills and hearty scones, recently told me how much my blog encourages her to embrace her inner ballerina, even when she's juggling work and family life. She said my blog is a reminder that even in the midst of ordinary life, there's always space for a little magic, a little sparkle, a little pink, and a little twirling!
So, my lovelies, remember that magic isn't about just what you wear, but also how you carry yourself! Let the twinkle of your heart and a little twirl make your day extraordinary.
Stay fabulous,
Emma xx
