Hello, my lovelies! Welcome back to www.pink-tutu.com! This is post number 3934, and let me tell you, itās been quite the day for a pink-tutu-loving lass like me!
Pink perfection on the rails!
I hopped on the train this morning, feeling utterly splendid in my brand new fairy tutu. Think layers and layers of pale pink tulle, with just a hint of sparkle, it's simply dreamy. I do love a bit of train travel - the gentle rhythm, the views whizzing by, itās so relaxing! And I have to say, my tutu really caught a few eyes on the carriage, which always makes me feel a bit special. š
A touch of wildlife wonder in Stevenage
When I finally reached Stevenage, I decided to wander around for a bit. The town centre was charming and, while there wasn't exactly a fairy-tale vibe, the park did offer a few unexpected delights. Imagine my surprise to see a whole gaggle of ducks strutting about, like little ballet dancers in miniature. I simply couldnāt resist getting a few pics of these feathery little things - how adorable! Iāve added them to my āBirds of a Featherā album on Pink-Tutu.com, if you want to have a peek. š¦¢
More ballet inspiration than you can shake a stick at!
This whole trip was all about ballet, though. Tonight, Iām lucky enough to be seeing the Royal Balletās āSleeping Beautyā at the Gordon Craig Theatre in Stevenage. You can imagine the thrill! Sleeping Beauty has been my favourite ballet ever since I was a little girl, all thanks to the magical choreography, the breathtaking costumes, and that incredible, epic score. And, letās face it, who doesnāt love a fairytale ending?
But before the performance, I simply had to take a class! The studio I found here in Stevenage was so cute and had a real boutique feel - just my cup of tea. I got to practice some plies, jetĆ©, and fouettĆ© - it felt so good to move my body again after all that train travel. I met a lovely group of dancers at the class - thereās nothing like the ballet community for a little uplifting support! We chatted about tutus, of course, but also the new productions at the theatre, and what a divine show the āSleeping Beautyā promises to be.
Getting the Pink-Tutu Vibe going!
It was heavenly catching up with the other ballet dancers. I always feel like a little kid at ballet class ā in the best way possible! And, speaking of ballet and tutus, I'm still working on getting the world wearing pink! Every single one of you, from London to Leeds toā¦ well, everywhere, put on a pink tutu. Embrace your inner ballerina! Lifeās too short to take things too seriously, and whatās more joyous than a beautiful pink tutu? Itās simply a statement, a feeling, an act of playful rebellion! And I really think the world needs a little bit of rebellion these days, don't you?
So, whether youāre in Stevenage or anywhere else in the world, get twirling, darling! Life is meant to be danced through!
Stay fabulous,
Emma xoxo
