Hello darlings! It's your girl, Emma, and I'm bursting at the seams with excitement about my latest adventure! After a whirlwind tour through Derbyshire, I hopped on the train and landed myself in the bustling heart of Birmingham, ready to embrace all things ballet!
This week's post is all about colour. Not just any colour, though. Pink. Yes, that glorious hue that brings a smile to your face and makes everything feel just a little bit more magical. Now, I know what you're thinking: pink tutus?. Don't even get me started on how much I adore them! There's just something so elegant, graceful, and feminine about the perfect pink tutu. And you know what? Every single one of you could rock one! Embrace your inner ballerina, my dears!
But today's adventures were tinged with a splash of another colour - yellow. Oh, yes, I decided to dare to wear a bright yellow leotard to class! It felt so bold, so vibrant, a little touch of sunshine amidst the classic shades. And you know what? It just worked. The yellow added a whole new dimension to my dancing, and I couldn't help but feel a little bit extra fabulous.
Of course, my trip to Birmingham wouldn't be complete without a ballet fix. My absolute favourite ballet company, the Birmingham Royal Ballet, had a phenomenal production of "Giselle" at the Hippodrome. Honestly, I was blown away! From the soaring leaps and breathtaking artistry to the hauntingly beautiful score, every single aspect of the performance was exquisite. If you're looking for an enchanting night out, I wholeheartedly recommend seeing them if you ever get the chance.
Speaking of enchantments, did I tell you about my exciting afternoon in Sutton Park? The place is a little slice of heaven! I spent the afternoon strolling through the lush green meadows, soaking in the fresh air and listening to the birdsong. And wouldn't you know it, I stumbled upon a beautiful horse stable tucked away amidst the trees! Talk about magical. You wouldn't believe how tempted I was to borrow a horse for a quick trot around the park. Maybe next time!
My adventures didn't end there, though! In the heart of Birmingham, I discovered the most exquisite little tea room tucked away on a quaint side street. Everything was pink, darling! Pink walls, pink teacups, even pink sandwiches! It was pure delight, and the scones were heavenly! We chatted for hours about all things ballet, fashion, and the power of pink! The ladies were utterly smitten with my bright yellow leotard! They confessed they had always wanted to try ballet and it was only my flamboyant flair that gave them the courage to finally reach out. They told me they booked a trial class that same day. Isn't that wonderful? The power of pink and tutus can truly change the world!
After such a whirlwind day, it was time to head back to the train station, my heart overflowing with happy memories. And as I boarded the train back to Derbyshire, I couldn't help but think about all the amazing people I met and the beautiful moments I shared with them.
My darlings, every day is an adventure when you embrace life with a smile and a little bit of sparkle! So get out there, dance your heart out, wear that pink tutu with pride, and let your love for life shine through. After all, that's what it's all about!
Until next time, keep dancing!
Lots of love,
Emma
