Hello darlings! It's your favourite pink tutu-clad travel enthusiast, Emma, back from the enchanting streets of Prague! As I sit here, my tutu billowing softly in the gentle breeze coming from the open window, the scent of freshly brewed coffee lingering in the air, I can't help but reflect on the past week, brimming with enchanting performances, captivating history, and a whole lot of pink, naturally!
A Railway Ride and A Tutu-tastic Arrival
This week's journey took me on a rather lovely train ride to Prague, gliding across the scenic landscapes with my favourite tutu bag packed with the perfect blend of tutus, sparkly accessories, and enough pink lipstick to last me the week. You see, my darlings, a pink tutu goes everywhere with me, even when I'm exploring Europe!
Upon my arrival, the charming cobbled streets of Prague welcomed me with open arms. Every corner revealed another quaint cafƩ, with pastel coloured houses boasting stunning architecture and a bohemian charm. It felt like I had stepped into a fairytale! The whole city practically pulsated with a unique blend of history and modern life - exactly my cup of tea, wouldn't you say?
Pink Tutu on a Magical History Tour
Naturally, I began my Prague adventure with a dash of historical flair. The magnificent Prague Castle is, of course, a must-visit. It was practically an embodiment of a princessās dream - towering towers, intricate stonework, and a breathtaking view over the entire city. My pink tulle skirt, in its own way, created a sweet little ballet against the backdrop of Pragueās history.
Next on the itinerary was a visit to the iconic Charles Bridge, its stone statues adorned with age-old tales. As I strolled along the bridge, I couldn't help but feel a wave of nostalgia wash over me. I was reminded of the historical ballets I used to watch with my grandmother - each pose a graceful story whispered through time.
A Tutu-filled Night at the Ballet
This Wednesday was the reason I ventured to Prague. As always, I knew a captivating performance awaited me: a special production of "Sleeping Beauty" at the National Theatre. Now, I don't need to tell you, the tutus were fabulous! They had everything I love - shimmering fabrics, delicate lace, and colours as bold and vibrant as a sunrise!
I was simply swept away by the beauty of the ballet itself. The dancers, of course, were divine! Each movement was a masterpiece of fluidity and grace. Their expressions, the music, the entire ambiance - it truly was a ballet lovers' dream. My own tulle twirled and danced with glee alongside their every movement, I couldnāt help but add a little āpinkā to the already beautiful production!
Fashion in the Heart of Prague
Whatās a ballet lover to do when surrounded by such breathtaking beauty? Shop, of course! You know me! A trip wouldn't be complete without a spot of boutique browsing. This time, Iāve fallen head-over-heels for a brand new tulle skirt ā it's the colour of sugared almonds and dances around my legs with a delightful little bounce. Naturally, it found its way into my Tutu Bag - after a few extra pieces of lovely lace, of course!
But fashion isn't just about clothes, darlings. The beauty of Prague extends beyond the buildings and cobblestones. I can't leave out the delectable pastries and divine coffee! Now, a truly fabulous tutu-tastic day requires a little caffeine and a sprinkle of sugary delight. You simply cannot spend time in this city and not enjoy one of the famous Prague Cakes. A perfect combination for a ballerina on the go, wouldn't you say?
More Than a Ballet Dream
As I prepare for the next stage of my Prague adventure, I canāt help but marvel at how it encapsulates so much. From its breathtaking beauty to its rich history, this city has stolen a piece of my heart. And, as I do every week, I hope itās inspired yours a little bit, too! So, I encourage you to step into your own pink tutu - maybe a whimsical floral print for the summer? Or a classic pink tulle for an elegant occasion? No matter where your next adventure takes you, always remember to be bold and unapologetically yourself. And never underestimate the power of a pink tutu! Until next Wednesday, when Iāll share all my latest Prague explorations, I send you lots of love and, of course, pink tutu power!
Yours, Emma xx
