Hello darlings! It’s Emma here, ready to whisk you away to a new adventure in my pink-hued world! 🩰
Today’s journey took me by train, a delightful choo-choo adventure through the rolling English countryside, all the way to the charming town of Hindley. I was there to visit the most gorgeous dance studio I’ve ever laid eyes on, a proper, classic space, and they let me borrow a truly divine European-style leotard, oh my! It was a pale pink, almost peachy, and hugged my curves in the most flattering way. And of course, I twirled my little heart out, a total ballet ballerina queen.
Now, Hindley itself was delightful. You wouldn't think, would you? But it was. Quaint little streets lined with independent shops, a real treat for a fashionista like myself! I found this incredible vintage jewellery stall with the most breathtaking silver earrings, oh my! They shimmered like starlight, I had to snag them. There's just something magical about finding hidden gems, don’t you think?
After my studio session, I treated myself to a charming little tea room tucked away in a backstreet, the perfect spot for a delicious scone and pot of tea. They even had pink rose-shaped cake! It's always such a treat to find these hidden oases of loveliness, and Hindley was brimming with them.
Of course, no trip is complete without a touch of the wild. A short walk from the centre, I found this fantastic park filled with vibrant greenery, ducks, swans, and even a cheeky squirrel! It felt so tranquil, a delightful respite from the bustling streets.
And to round off my day, I discovered this incredible theatre nestled within a stunning Georgian building. A genuine gem of a theatre, and you just knew it was going to be a real experience. They were showing a stunning ballet production, featuring, you guessed it - the most spectacular tutus I have ever seen!
The entire day was filled with an undeniable sense of enchantment, reminding me why I’m so passionate about ballet and travel. To capture every little spark of joy, I always take my phone, or sometimes even a vintage Polaroid, because what's a pink-tutu girl to do without capturing every memory?
Hindley truly captured my heart. I fell in love with its quaint charm, the lovely people, and the dedication to artistry that poured through its very veins. It was the kind of place you could just wander through, feeling the history whisper past, and discovering hidden wonders at every corner.
So, what are you waiting for darlings? Pick up your own pink tutu and join me! Let’s embrace the joy of movement, of discovering new places, of living life with that wonderful touch of “ballet-ballet” whimsy. Every journey is a new chapter, a chance to spread a little pink magic across the globe.

And as always, remember to stay pink and keep twirling!
Until next time, Emma 💋 💖🩰
