Hello darlings! Emma here, fresh from a whirlwind trip to Fulham and ready to share all the pink-tastic fun! As you know, I'm a huge fan of exploring new places, especially when it involves a little bit of ballet. And what better way to do so than by donning my favourite green tutu? (I'm actually thinking of getting it dry cleaned. Might just wear it to bed tonightā¦)
This adventure was a proper "train journey" kind of day ā something I adore! Soaking up the scenery, flicking through my Ballet Bible, and feeling like a true Victorian ballerina on my way to a show. The wind in my hair (even though it was windy in a rather grumpy and damp way today) and the chug-chug-chug of the train just brings out that whimsical side of me.
Speaking of whimsy, Fulham itself was just as enchanting. Weāre all about that charming London charm in Fulham, you know, those cobbled streets, hidden pubs, and gorgeous vintage shops just bursting with potential pink tutus! Imagine it: me, in my emerald green masterpiece, rummaging through a trove of antique dresses and ballet slippers. Talk about a vintage ballerina's dream!
But Iām getting ahead of myself. Our primary mission today? A visit to the famous [Name of the ballet school/theatre]. A place teeming with such talent! Every corner of the school was buzzing with the energy of future ballerinas, a veritable ballet beehive if you will! And speaking of beesā¦ Have I ever told you about my adorable bumble bee tutu? I can't even bear to think about leaving her at home... sniffle
Letās talk class. The lesson was just divine. Imagine pirouettes in a room lit up by the soft glow of golden sunlight streaming through arched windows. I know, I know, totally magical! I swear, every arabesque was that much more graceful because of that beautiful light. Plus, thereās just something about a good ballet class that lifts your spirits. And when you add in a dash of pink tutu, itās truly transformative!
Afterwards, we popped into a cafe for a delightful spot of tea and cake, the perfect fuel for a busy day. Then, I went on a mission, scouring Fulhamās hidden alleyways for a perfect spot to get a photo shoot with my green tutu. Finally, success! We found the ideal location - an archway dripping in wisteria, all vibrant purples and lush greens, just the perfect backdrop for a Tutu-tastic photoshoot. The green of my tutu literally popped against the colourful flowers, a true colour clash extraordinaire. Itās safe to say I had my camera clicking with delight!
But I canāt write a post without a little sprinkle of āEmma-isms,ā right? So letās chat wildlife, darlings! Fulham might not be known for its safari parks, but we managed to catch sight of some cheeky pigeons and even a friendly squirrel scampering through the trees. They might not be lions or giraffes, but they still brought a smile to my face!
Now, I need to leave you all with a challenge ā wear a pink tutu for a day! I dare you! What are you waiting for? Grab your fluffiest, most fabulous pink tutu and get twirling. You might even want to consider a green tutu (just like mine) or perhaps a beautiful turquoise one for that perfect touch of summer colour!
As for me, Iāll be off to another exciting ballet adventure very soon. Maybe Iāll finally get that vintage tutu at the Fulham antique shop! Keep your eyes peeled for more stories of tutus, travels, and my love for all things ballet on www.pink-tutu.com.
Until next time,
Emma
P.S. Donāt forget to tell me about your pink tutu experiences. Iād love to hear them!
