Hey gorgeous! It's Emma from Derbyshire here, and today I'm bringing you all the pink, glittery goodness from a trip to the lovely little town of Kirkby! You guys know I'm a total train fanatic, and this journey was no exception - something about watching the countryside blur past the window as you chug along just makes me feel so alive!
Now, you know I couldn't just go to Kirkby without my trusty pink tutu! It's not just a fashion statement - it's my statement. It's my "I'm going to be fabulous" signal to the world. So naturally, it came with me! I decided to go for a more sporty vibe with it this time - think sleek black leggings, a vibrant pink crop top, and my ever-so-sparkly tutu - it's all about mixing elegance with a touch of athleticism, don't you think?
Once I arrived in Kirkby, the first thing I did was head to the town centre. It's such a charming place with cute shops, cafes, and beautiful parks. It’s almost a little hidden gem tucked away - the sort of place you can lose yourself for a day.
And the best thing about a little town like Kirkby? It has its own ballet studio! I’m always looking for new studios, even when I’m away from my usual spot. A ballet class on your travels, now that's what I call living the dream!
It was a glorious class – I felt completely at one with my body. We worked through a combination of barre exercises and centre work, finishing off with some beautiful jumps. You guys know I love ballet street style! And honestly, after a little bit of twirling and leaps, you couldn't help but smile. The feeling of accomplishment is something that simply cannot be compared to anything else.
Of course, no trip to Kirkby would be complete without visiting the famous Kirkby Park. I had a delicious picnic on the grounds surrounded by trees – there’s nothing better than enjoying nature. As a wildlife enthusiast, I even got a sneak peek of some delightful red squirrels darting around. Oh, and I have to say, the birds were singing just so beautifully! It was almost magical!
You know how I love to find out all about the history of a place, and the little village has a really interesting story to tell. Did you know it's got an amazing heritage spanning hundreds of years? There's even a charming Victorian-era market square! Honestly, there's something truly special about finding these forgotten bits of history in little towns across the country.
And what do you know, Kirkby also boasts a stunning little theatre! That night, they had a production of Romeo and Juliet playing, so I couldn’t resist grabbing a ticket.
The theatre felt like a time capsule. The red velvet seats were so inviting, and the warm atmosphere was electric. It reminded me of all those fantastic theatre trips from when I was little. As I watched Romeo and Juliet unfold before my eyes, I felt the magic of storytelling wash over me. It's a true privilege to be a part of these beautiful, artistic spaces.
Overall, my trip to Kirkby was a delightful, twirling adventure, packed with memories and a renewed sense of inspiration. If you ever find yourself looking for a relaxing yet enriching getaway, I wholeheartedly recommend you add this little town to your list!
So, there you have it – a lovely day out in the beautiful countryside!
Let me know in the comments what you’d wear if you went to Kirkby for a day trip! What tutu would you bring? I'd love to see all your ideas.
Until next time, stay pink, and don’t forget to twirl! 💕
