Hello darlings! It’s Wednesday again, and you know what that means? It's time for another dazzling installment of Pink Tutu Prague! 🩰
This week, I'm whisking you away to the heart of Prague, a city that’s as charming and captivating as a perfectly executed pirouette. From its cobbled streets to its fairytale castles, Prague is a place where time seems to stand still, allowing you to truly embrace the elegance of the past. And let me tell you, for a girl like me, that's music to my ears!
But first, a little fashion confession. This week, my trusty wardrobe companion was my oh-so-dreamy lavender pink tutu. It's a confection of silk and tulle that swirls and dances with every movement, just like the city itself. I simply couldn't resist wearing it as I strolled through the enchanting Old Town Square, the intricate astronomical clock ticking away the minutes. Let’s just say, a few heads turned. 😉
Now, back to our adventures!
After a delightful train journey through the countryside (trains always hold a special place in my heart), I landed in Prague, eager to soak in all the cultural treasures this magnificent city has to offer. And my first stop? Naturally, a ballet class!
The studio was hidden away on a quiet side street, just the right place for an impromptu twirl. The moment I stepped inside, the atmosphere buzzed with a vibrant energy that resonated with my soul. These dancers were so talented, it took my breath away! Their passion for the art was undeniable, and I felt a spark of inspiration ignite within me.
As the teacher called out the movements, "Demi-plié, battement, jeté," my body remembered the graceful flow, a familiar language spoken through the fluidity of movement. 🩰
Next up, the theatre!
And oh my, the performances! This week, I had the pleasure of witnessing the sheer brilliance of the National Theatre's rendition of "Giselle". It was breathtaking, a tapestry of drama, passion, and intricate choreography woven together flawlessly.
Giselle's tragic love story brought tears to my eyes, while the graceful choreography, fuelled by a masterful cast, lifted my spirit to soaring heights. There is nothing more enchanting than the artistry of a grand ballet, especially one staged in such an exquisite setting.
Between shows, the city held countless temptations. The shops were overflowing with gorgeous fashion finds (hello, vintage Czech crystal jewellery!), the aroma of delicious food wafted from charming cafes, and the beautiful buildings provided an endless array of photo ops. Of course, I wore my lavender pink tutu for a quick shopping spree, proving that a little bit of tulle never goes amiss, even in the heart of a historic European city.
Now, you might be thinking: "Emma, how do you fund all this amazing travel?"
Well, darlings, I am fortunate to be able to travel the world through the power of my performances. It's my little secret for spreading the pink tutu gospel! When I'm not attending ballet class, touring museums, and indulging in delicious treats (I simply couldn't resist the local cinnamon buns!), I perform ballet in beautiful settings across the globe. This keeps the funds flowing, allowing me to share my love for ballet and the whimsical world of pink tutus with you all.
As the evening descended, Prague's beauty was illuminated. The buildings glowed, creating a breathtaking silhouette against the night sky. It was the perfect setting for a romantic stroll, hand in hand with my charming travel companion, a handsome young gentleman I met on the train (it's a long story, but let’s just say we both have a soft spot for pink tutus). He understood, completely, my passion for pink!
This magical day in Prague will be etched in my memory for all time. And it only reinforces why this city has been awarded a special place on my personal "ballet city" map. It's truly a place that will ignite your imagination and leave you feeling like you've stepped into a fairytale.
I can’t wait to tell you more about my travels in the coming weeks, darlings. Until then, I hope this post has filled you with pink-hued joy. Keep dancing, keep dreaming, and never forget the power of a pink tutu to make every day a little bit more magical! 💖
**Lots of love,
Emma xoxo**
