Pink Tutu Rome: #1343 - Ciao Bella! From Derbyshire to the Eternal City!
Wednesday, 2021-03-03
Buongiorno from beautiful Rome, my darlings! 🩰🇮🇹 It's your favourite pink-tutu-wearing, travel-loving ballerina, Emma, checking in from the heart of the Eternal City. This week, I’m celebrating all things fashion, fun, and fabulous as I embark on a whirlwind tour of Rome's most enchanting sights! And, of course, no trip is complete without a touch of pink!
Now, I know what you’re thinking: Rome and tutus, an unusual combo, right? Well, trust me, it works! Rome is a city that embraces creativity, culture, and a bit of dramatic flair – just like a ballerina! 💃
So, grab your fanciest pink tutu (you know the one – the one with the fluffy tulle!) and a steaming cuppa (or an espresso!), because today we’re going on an adventure through the streets of Rome.
Train Travel & TutusLet's rewind for a moment – before arriving in this majestic city, I enjoyed a fabulously romantic train journey. Remember my little travel confession? I adore train travel! 🚄 The gentle click-clack of the wheels, the rolling countryside whizzing past – it’s so calming and inspiring! Plus, let's be honest, it's an absolute blast to show off my best tutu ensemble while on board, a truly stylish way to travel! 😉
And the Italians? Swoon. So elegant! So chic! They completely understand my pink tutu vibe – it’s all about adding a touch of magic to everyday life. You'd be surprised how many smiles I've received on this trip – a silent “Well done, you go girl!” that only a fellow tutu lover would understand.
The Roman HolidayUpon arriving at Roma Termini, I felt that unmistakable, thrilling rush of anticipation. I was in Rome! The city of emperors, gladiators, and some of the most stunning architecture in the world. 🏛️ This city breathes history – the scent of ancient olive trees, the whispering stories of ancient stones. It was magic!
My first stop was my charming little Airbnb, nestled in a peaceful neighbourhood near the Vatican City. It was a beautifully renovated flat, with a touch of whimsy and romance that had my inner ballerina swooning. I couldn't resist snapping a picture of my suitcase bursting with all my fabulous pink tutus, and posting it to Instagram with the hashtag #PinkTutuRome – always gotta share the pink tutu magic!
Fashionably SpeakingNaturally, after unpacking my meticulously planned, pink-tinted wardrobe, I needed a bit of retail therapy. Now, I know we can’t all rock a tutu at all times, but Rome offers endless fashion inspiration. It's like walking into a glamorous fashion show, a delicious mix of classic elegance and bold trends.
I spent an afternoon exploring the designer boutiques on Via Condotti, which practically exudes “fashionista” vibes. I tried on some divine pieces, dreaming of a pink-tutu-worthy soirée. Who knows, maybe I'll find the perfect gown for my next ballet performance! I did, however, manage to find a beautiful, rose-coloured scarf for my Rome collection – my tutu simply begged for a dash of extra sparkle!
Eating My Way Through RomeOf course, no trip to Rome is complete without experiencing its culinary delights. Imagine… juicy pizza fresh out of the wood-fired oven, melt-in-your-mouth gelato, rich espresso that wakes up your senses, and a little pasta heaven. I’m living the dream! 🍕🍨☕🍝
Every mouthful is a culinary adventure, and let's face it, a ballet performance demands the fuel of delicious Italian cuisine!
Ballet & ArtThe Roman nights are simply magical. The city sparkles, the air is filled with the laughter of locals, and the sounds of music seem to flow from every cobblestone street. And for me? This meant the chance to soak up the cultural delights of Rome!
Tonight, I'm heading to the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma for an unforgettable ballet performance! The music, the graceful movements, the passion – I can’t wait to see these amazing artists take to the stage.
The best part? I found a stunning ballet tutu with floral appliqués, perfect for this occasion! 🩰 It just had to be worn, darling! Who said you can't enjoy a pink tutu even when travelling?! I am truly living my best life – sharing my pink tutu adventures with all of you!
I will leave you with this little message: Never be afraid to embrace your inner ballerina, and don’t forget – the world is your stage! 💕
See you next Wednesday for more Pink Tutu Rome adventures!
Yours always, Emma xxx
