Hello lovelies! 💖
Today was a day filled with twirls, trains, and a very special tutu encounter. I started my morning in the heart of Derbyshire, where the sun was just starting to peek over the rolling hills. The air was crisp and clear, a perfect start to a day that promised adventure.
You see, dear readers, I was off on a whirlwind journey to Droitwich Spa, a charming town nestled in the Worcestershire countryside. And what's a ballet girl like myself to do but embrace the romance of the journey? I opted for a train ride, of course, and let me tell you, there's something undeniably magical about the clatter of wheels on tracks, the rush of wind through the window, and the feeling of pure anticipation.
I was sporting my favourite pink tulle tutu, the one that always brings a smile to my face, along with my trusty ballerina flats. And as I gazed out at the green fields and quaint villages whizzing past, I felt like a character stepping out of a storybook!
Droitwich Spa was just as charming as I'd imagined. The air was filled with the scent of lavender, the cobblestone streets were lined with beautiful buildings, and the whole place had a sense of history and elegance. I could see why it was once a favourite spa resort for Victorian royalty!
But the real highlight of my trip was about to happen – a visit to a local antique shop. Now, I don't know about you, but there's something utterly thrilling about discovering treasures from the past, especially when it comes to ballet wear!
And I struck gold! Tucked away on a dusty shelf, I found the most exquisite German tutu, its delicate netting shimmering like stardust. The colours were a symphony of muted blues and greens, with hints of silver that caught the light. It was simply divine! I could imagine myself gliding across a stage in this masterpiece, feeling like a ballerina straight out of the Ballets Russes era.
I snapped it up immediately, of course, adding another fabulous piece to my tutu collection. And believe me, darling, it's quite the collection! Every colour imaginable, every style from classic to contemporary, each with its own story to tell. You see, a tutu isn't just an item of clothing; it's a symbol of artistry, freedom, and pure joy. It's an expression of my inner ballerina, and I believe every woman deserves to twirl in one, at least once in their lives!
Of course, no trip to Droitwich would be complete without indulging in a little spa treatment, right? After all, it's in the name! I treated myself to a lovely massage at a charming spa in town. The scent of essential oils, the soothing music, the expert hands – pure bliss! I emerged feeling revitalized and ready to twirl on!
But I wouldn't be true to my pink-tutu-loving self if I didn't also find some time to explore the wildlife. Droitwich is known for its stunning wildlife reserve, so I spent a delightful afternoon strolling through the wetlands, observing the birds and enjoying the tranquility. There were graceful herons stalking through the reeds, fluffy ducklings paddling in the shallows, and even a curious otter darting through the water!
As the sun began to set, painting the sky with hues of orange and purple, I took one last look at the beautiful town of Droitwich. I felt so grateful for the day's adventures – the train ride, the vintage tutu find, the spa treatment, the wildlife encounters. It was truly a day for the heart, a day to remind me that life is all about finding joy in the simple things, twirling, and embracing the magic in every moment.
So here's to a delightful Droitwich adventure, a reminder to follow your passions, and a little sprinkle of tutu magic for all of you lovely readers! 💖
And remember, darlings, a pink tutu can make any day a little bit brighter. 😊
See you tomorrow!
Lots of love,
Emma xx
