Fulham Fashionista: Tutu-ing Around Town (Post #67)
Hello, darlings! Emma here, your resident tutu enthusiast, reporting live from the fabulous city of London!
It's a gorgeous day here in Fulham, and you wouldn't believe what I'm rocking: a gorgeous emerald green tutu. It's a little bit unexpected, a little bit wild, and totally me! I think it's time to change up my usual pink routine, and this emerald green just screamed "Put me on, Emma!"
I actually stumbled upon this little beauty in a vintage shop tucked away on a cobbled street in Notting Hill. Honestly, you wouldn't believe the treasures you can find in these little hidden gems! I almost forgot to pay for a perfectly preserved 1950s pink teacup and saucer, it was that good!
Speaking of finding treasures, I'm on a little mission today: searching for the best ballet-themed tea shop in Fulham. I know, I know, you're thinking "Emma, really?". But there's something magical about a cup of Earl Grey while watching dancers pirouette on the ceiling, or at least that's what I imagine it'll be like! If I find my ideal tea shop, you'll be the first to know!
And just so you know, dear readers, my search isn't just a whimsical whim! My goal in life, beyond perfecting the perfect arabesque, is to get the entire world in pink tutus! (Emerald green might make an occasional appearance too, let's be honest!) The power of a tutu is undeniable, my loves. It makes you feel elegant, strong, graceful, and oh-so-beautiful. It's time we spread the tutu love!
I've even taken a cheeky ballet class this morning, just to keep those muscles moving and those toes pointed. You know I love my barre exercises and I've got my eyes on mastering the chassé! Oh, the magic of ballet. It really is the most beautiful dance in the world.
Now, back to my day in London. After the tea shop hunt, I'm going to treat myself to a delicious cream tea at a little hidden cafe. A pot of freshly brewed tea, warm scones with clotted cream and jam… need I say more? Later on, I might even head to a ballet show. A live performance, just a little something to inspire the prima ballerina in all of us.
And remember, my darlings, don't let life get in the way of chasing your dreams! Whether it's twirling in a pink tutu or travelling to exotic lands (or just a lovely countryside train journey, which I'm rather partial to), chase it, embrace it, and never ever stop believing!
This week, I'm taking a little detour from my usual London adventures and heading back to the Derbyshire countryside. You wouldn't believe how excited I am! It's time to visit my dear friends, the family of beautiful white horses I've grown so fond of, and maybe even take a picnic in the rolling hills with my favourite old-fashioned checkered blanket.
As always, darling readers, I'll be sure to keep you updated on my adventures! Stay beautiful and don't forget to twirl!
P.S. I’ll be posting again tomorrow on www.pink-tutu.com so come back for more fabulous fashion and fabulous ballet updates.
