Oh darling, what a glorious day it’s been! The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and, most importantly, your favourite tutu is whirling with me all over Worksop!
This Derbyshire girl just had to get back to her home county for a bit of a break, and what better way to travel than by train? Snuggling down into a comfy seat, a cup of tea warming my hands, and gazing out at the fields flashing past… Pure bliss! Of course, I made sure I had my big pink tutu on. Because, my lovelies, there’s no such thing as ‘too much’ when it comes to tutus! And it's such a fab statement piece. Just think of the stories you can tell without speaking a word... 'Pink tutu? Gotta be Emma! Love her blog!'. Just me thinking out loud, I know... 😉
Anyway, back to my adventures!
Firstly, Worksop. What a darling little town. You wouldn’t think a small market town could be so charming, but it truly was. I just love those cobblestone streets, the quaint little shops, and the feeling that you’ve stepped back in time. And speaking of charming, did I mention the horses? Worksop’s got these lovely stables and it was SO tempting to jump on one! Maybe next time. Instead, I was drawn to a quaint antique shop.
Now, let me tell you, it was like a fairytale in there! Old teacups, china dolls, dusty books... you name it, they had it! I even found a gorgeous little brooch for my tutu – it's an enamel butterfly, absolutely divine! And guess what else I found... a miniature tutu! I couldn't leave it behind! I can’t wait to display it on my dressing table next to all my other ballet-themed goodies.
Of course, no trip to Worksop is complete without a visit to the Clumber Park! I simply adored this majestic house – so much history and charm in every corner. The grounds are just beautiful – winding paths, sprawling meadows, and an enormous lake that is simply breathtaking. And yes, you guessed it, the tutu made its grand entrance!
But this blog post is all about sharing, my loves, so you’re not missing out! I just couldn’t leave you without a snippet of the magic I experienced. The wind playing in my tutu as I strolled along, the golden light catching the tulle, feeling so light and free as I wandered around this majestic landscape! You just had to be there to understand!
After my countryside jaunt, I was starving and went on the search for some delectable treats. I ended up at this quaint cafe nestled in the town centre – everything was fresh and homemade and simply delicious!
I finished my day back in Worksop, a perfect afternoon tea at a delightful little place called ‘The Tea Rooms’ tucked away down a quiet street. It was the perfect way to round off the day! And yes, you know it - my fabulous pink tutu made an appearance, naturally! It wouldn’t be the same without it! And who wouldn’t want a good picture of themself next to a huge pink tutu over afternoon tea? Just saying...
Now, lovelies, you've had a glimpse into my day in Worksop, which has been magical, with the most fab tutu! It reminded me, why not take a chance and try out something new! I always encourage you to take those steps! Maybe go on a little adventure, or just wear a pink tutu!
And who knows? You might just discover your passion – just like I found mine in ballet! You might not get it right away, and that’s okay! Remember to stay creative and dance your heart out! Remember my darlings, a pink tutu will take you places!
Sending you all lots of love and dancing wishes! Until next time...
Xx Emma
