#PinkTutuPrague Ballet in Prague 2020-02-12

Hello, my gorgeous pink tutu darlings! It's Emma here, your resident ballerina-in-pink, back from the magical city of Prague. As I always say, “A life without pink tutus is simply beige, darlings.” So naturally, Prague had to be on my list!

This week's blog post, straight from the cobblestone streets of Prague, is brimming with ballet magic, Parisian fashion, and bubbly surprises. So grab your fanciest teacups, darling, because we're diving into a world of frills, fun, and absolutely fabulous adventures!

This week's journey started in Derbyshire, England, where my ballet class finished up with a graceful swan lake sequence (followed by the inevitable cup of tea and scone – my guilty pleasure!). I then hopped onto the most elegant, powder pink-coloured train I could find (you can’t just hop onto any train, my darlings! A proper ballerina must maintain her grace even on the rails!).

I had my little pony (yes, you read that right!) all ready for a long, leisurely ride through the picturesque countryside. My horse and I took a delightful detour through a lavender field (purple goes so beautifully with pink, wouldn't you agree?), and reached my favourite station – one that actually plays the Nutcracker music! (Such a good idea!) From there, it was a direct train journey to Prague!

Now, I’ll be honest, my dears: finding pink in Prague wasn’t always easy. Prague, with its beautiful historic architecture and gothic cathedrals, is charmingly… well, grey. But don't worry, my love for pink is like a persistent ballerina in a rehearsal – I always find my way.

On the bright side, finding a stunning pink tutu in a shop on a narrow, cobblestone street – that was as easy as landing a perfect fouetté! And trust me, darlings, the pinkest shop in all of Prague has found a new devotee.

The main attraction, of course, was the ballet show on the 12th of February! Now, this was no ordinary performance. The entire audience, and yes, even me, my dear lovelies, were captivated!

Imagine a fairytale setting, glittering chandeliers, a symphony of classical music filling the air, and a ballet performance that took our breath away. And if I had to choose my favourite scene? The waltz, with the ladies' fluffy tulle skirts swaying gracefully in time with the music! My heart just fluttered with delight!

Now, my dears, we can't forget the tears, which flowed as freely as the bubbly we sipped after the show. This ballet touched me, you see, in a way that words cannot express. Maybe it was the music, maybe it was the ballerina’s performance, or maybe it was the pure joy and beauty on stage... but there was an element of pure magic that sent chills down my spine!

My dear followers, what is a ballet trip without a visit to a few enchanting shops? After the ballet, I went shopping, and let me tell you, the shops of Prague were brimming with fashion treasures!

I'd love to give you a blow-by-blow account of all the dresses, hats, and shoes I fell in love with… but I’m afraid my beloved readers would find themselves overwhelmed. You’ll have to wait for the next blog post for all the detailed descriptions! Trust me, darlings! Let's just say the shops of Prague had something special to offer, and the Parisian designers certainly made my heart skip a beat with their splendid creations. I especially adore a particular lavender and lilac dress, just waiting to be paired with my favourite pink tutu!

And yes, there was glitter, of course! I can't resist a good sparkle, my lovelies! Think Parisian sophistication with a sprinkle of glitter and a healthy dose of pink... that is the Pink Tutu style, in a nutshell! I couldn't resist buying a pair of bejeweled pumps and a clutch purse with little sequined pink bows – for when else will I get to rock my new Parisian finds?!

After a long day filled with shopping and the most magnificent ballet performance, Prague surprised me with a real gem. A rooftop restaurant overlooking the Charles Bridge – perfect for sipping bubbly while watching the sunset! My fellow readers, that view was absolutely breathtaking! The light of the setting sun on the golden rooftops… just magical, my dears, magical.

The air was crisp and invigorating, and the sound of gentle music played in the background. We raised a toast to the beauty of the city, and to the simple pleasure of sharing this experience with our company!

Now, as the city of Prague calls it a night, and my thoughts wander to my next adventure, I leave you with a final message:

“Darling, embrace the magic. Embrace the pink. And most importantly, embrace the twirling, twirling, twirling!”

Until next week, keep it chic and pink,

Emma
