Hello, my darlings! Emma here, ready to whisk you away on another whirlwind adventure in my beloved pink tutu. Today, the destination is Feltham, a little slice of suburban heaven just west of London. I love exploring new corners of the UK, and this time, itās a delightful mix of ballet bliss, countryside charm, and a touch of animal magic!
Pink Power in the City:
It wouldn't be a proper Emma adventure without a dash of pink power! My tutu of choice today is a blush pink masterpiece with delicate layers of tulle, reminiscent of a blooming rose garden. I paired it with a crisp white shirt and a touch of glitter for a sprinkle of magic. Itās always a treat to watch Londoners' reactions to a pink tutu waltzing down the street, a smile and a friendly wave are the best compliments, and today, I got plenty of both!
Ballet Bliss in the Borough:
I arrived in Feltham on a vintage train, a journey that whisked me back to a time of grand travel. Itās truly magical to watch the world blur by, feeling like a princess from a bygone era. But today wasn't about fairy tales, it was about embracing reality: the reality of breathtaking ballet!
I'm utterly thrilled to tell you all that a brand new dance studio, āThe Ballet Barreā, opened its doors in Feltham this week. With airy studios and an energetic vibe, this studio is a haven for anyone who craves the grace and freedom of dance. Iām itching to try their āBallet & Brunchā class - who doesnāt love a bit of early morning movement followed by delicious treats?
Animal Encounters in Feltham:
Feltham holds a special place in my heart because itās the home to a sprawling nature reserve: Bedfont Lakes Country Park. It's a treasure trove of wildlife, with ducklings frolicking on the water, playful squirrels chasing each other amongst the trees, and even the odd heron making an appearance. Iām an avid birdwatcher, and I even spotted a little wren with its cheerful song - it truly brightened my day!
The countryside is an absolute necessity for my soul; I'm a firm believer that the world is meant to be experienced, not just viewed from a screen.
The Tutu Effect:
As I made my way back to the station, I caught a glimpse of a group of children playing with a bright pink frisbee. It reminded me of something, then I remembered... I've always loved the simple joy of playing and connecting with nature! So, a lightbulb moment: wouldnāt it be fantastic if we could bring back the magic of play in all our lives, just like the little ones at the park? Maybe with a sprinkle of pink?
I dream of a world where everyone, young and old, has the courage to embrace their inner child. A world where we rediscover the magic in everyday things - laughter, silliness, and perhaps, yes, a touch of pink!
And just for fun... a little challenge!
This week, I'm encouraging all of you to find your own little bit of pink magic! Whether it's a vibrant pink lip gloss, a cheerful pink shirt, or a trip to your local park for a spot of pink-tinted laughter, join the movement and spread the joy.
Remember, darling, thereās always a little pink waiting to be discovered. And donāt forget to let me know your experiences with #PinkTutuMagic on social media!
Until next time, happy twirling and stay fabulous!

P.S. Donāt forget to tune in tomorrow for a glimpse into my favourite ballet bookstore, nestled in the heart of London! Itās filled with beautiful books, inspiring tales, and enough ballet history to make your head spin!
