Hello my gorgeous darlings! 💖 It's your favourite pink-tutu-wearing blogger, Emma, here, bringing you post number 6262, straight from the charming town of Aylesbury!
This week's been a whirl of twirls and a dash of pancake-inspired fashion! The weather's been positively dreamy here in Aylesbury – sunny with just a touch of a summer breeze, perfect for frolicking in a tutu, of course! 😉
As you all know, I live for ballet – and that includes catching live performances whenever I can! So this weekend I hopped on a charming little train (those little train journeys are just so picturesque!), and headed to the Aylesbury Waterside Theatre. 🎭 I'd heard whispers about a breathtaking ballet production, and I wasn't disappointed! It was absolutely exquisite - I even got to see a little glimpse of the dancers getting ready backstage. It's amazing to see their passion and dedication up close! 🩰💖
Now, the real excitement came afterwards, you see. Because I wasn't going to miss the chance to visit the Aylesbury Vale Wildlife Park. I’m a little bit obsessed with animals – it’s a good job because it's a theme I incorporate into a lot of my tutus! I even had my pink tutu designed around some beautiful birds and flowers – think a ballet version of the ‘Wildflowers’ print! Anyway, you can just imagine the photoshoot opportunities this animal-loving, tutu-wearing, girl had at the Wildlife Park – pure bliss! It's almost as if they were built for one another! And guess what?! I actually spotted a gorgeous peacock sporting a truly remarkable feathery tutu, a natural born ballet star! 🦚🩰
You'd never believe this, but inspired by my afternoon of beautiful birds, I made myself a little pancake tutu! I know what you're thinking… "a pancake tutu?" – It sounds strange, right? But believe me, it's adorable. And you wouldn't believe how many stares I got as I sashayed down the street! I just knew I had to share this with all of you, so I whipped out my camera and captured some pics to inspire you. After all, it's all about bringing the magic of ballet and fun, colourful fashion to your own life, right? 💖
The recipe was so easy to make, my friends! (You can find the recipe in the ‘Yummy’ tab on my blog website www.pink-tutu.com!) Just imagine a pile of mini-pancakes, lightly brushed with a shimmery, iridescent glaze, stacked high and held together with a sash of delicate lace! The finished product was almost as good as a genuine ballet tutu, though not as suitable for performing (you know me, I always like to make a little mischief when I can). The little girls around town were amazed, and I made sure to inspire a couple of them to try ballet! The future of ballet is looking good, my dears! 🩰💖
Anyway, I've gotta dash! There’s a horse-drawn carriage tour beckoning me this evening, taking me through the scenic English countryside. Who knows what fun and colourful experiences await on the horizon? Stay tuned for more fabulous tales of tutus, trains, and all things fabulous!
Until next time, keep those twirls strong, Emma xoxo 💖
