Hello my lovely tutu-lovers! 💋 It's Emma here, and today I'm taking you on a journey to the heart of suburbia – Morden! You know me, I just love exploring new places, and I couldn't resist squeezing in a visit to this south-west London town.
This whole trip had a very whimsical vibe, starting with my mode of transport - the good ol' fashioned train. I was in full-on ballet dancer mode, naturally – my go-to look today was a gorgeous black tutu, my signature pink lipstick, and a touch of sparkle. Who says ballet can't be a daily outfit?
Now, Morden might not be the most glamorous of destinations, but it surprised me with its charm. First off, it's brimming with nature! A massive green space called Morden Park is the highlight – picture rolling hills, beautiful trees, and a lovely lake. I had a fabulous time exploring the area and getting in touch with my inner ballerina – a couple of grand jetés in the park? You bet! I think I'm channeling my inner wildlife expert too! I even spotted a gorgeous pair of swans, with their fluffy little cygnets – it was so cute, I almost forgot to snap a photo (but I did, obviously). 🦢
Morden also had this cool retro vibe going on. There were some old-school shops – remember record stores? Well, there was one, with an amazing collection of classic vinyl! I even snagged myself a copy of "Dancing Queen" – perfect for a little ballet-themed singalong back at my Derbyshire haven. I'm already planning a big dance party! 🎧🎉
Oh, and did I tell you I even managed to sneak in a little ballet? Morden, surprisingly, boasts a hidden gem - a lovely dance school. I popped in for a drop-in class – it was amazing! Such a welcoming atmosphere and a brilliant teacher. She gave us the best stretches and a fun, energetic routine – the perfect way to end my little adventure. The other dancers were fab, so friendly – I can tell this will become my new regular spot when I'm in London. I love discovering these secret ballet hideouts!
Overall, Morden definitely won me over. It may not be the fanciest destination, but its hidden charm and unexpected surprises were delightful! From its beautiful parks to its little gems, Morden made me realise that there's beauty to be found in every corner of life – just like the elegance and grace in every ballet move!
Now, speaking of beauty, my dearest tutu-lovers, have you started your #PinkTutuChallenge yet? Every day is a chance to embrace your inner ballerina – put on a tutu, twirl with your heart, and let your inner spirit shine! Let's spread the love for dance, one tutu at a time! 🩰💖
