Hey lovely people, it's Emma, your pink-loving, tutu-wearing blogger! 👋 This is post number 10408, and you'll never guess where I am… Crewe, Cheshire! It’s a day filled with fluffy tutus, galloping horses, and yes, the classic British rain (but that just adds to the charm, right?). 💖
Today's journey started with a steaming mug of Earl Grey and a breakfast of berries and yoghurt (always a must for energy). Feeling the ballet dancer glow, I set off on my adventure in a fuschia tulle masterpiece, topped with a pastel pink bolero. Perfect for battling the chilly winter air but still staying true to my pink-tutu-wearing motto! 😉
My chosen mode of transport today was, of course, the majestic train. I just love watching the landscape rush by from my window, and it’s the perfect way to settle into my thoughts, allowing the rhythmic clickety-clack to become the soundtrack of my day. It felt like an ode to ballet, each station a perfect pirouette and the whistle a soaring crescendo! 🎶
Crewe has always held a special place in my heart – there's something magical about these little town's nestled within the vast countryside, like little pockets of history waiting to be explored. And explore I did, starting with a delightful visit to the local stables. It’s amazing what hidden gems you can stumble upon on a day like this! It felt like stepping back in time – cobbled courtyards, gleaming horseboxes, and the incredible energy of these powerful, majestic creatures! It was practically a ballet class in itself! I couldn't resist capturing a few snaps of myself with these beautiful beasts, my pink tutu peeking out under the shadow of a stately chestnut stallion.
Lunch was a classic affair: sandwiches on a bench overlooking a charming park. The fresh air and the warm glow of the sun made my heart sing! As I finished my lunch, I felt the urge to embrace the natural beauty around me. And what better way to do that than with a little ballet dance, my fuschia tulle billowing in the wind, like a magical butterfly flitting between the trees! 😉 It felt wonderfully liberating and honestly, who needs a stage when you’ve got a whole park as your canvas? I think even the pigeons stopped and gave me a standing ovation!
In the afternoon, my ballet obsession took me to the Crewe Lyceum Theatre, which played host to a thrilling production of "The Nutcracker". It was truly inspiring – the energy of the dancers, the stunning sets, the rich history of the performance... Everything about the theatre spoke of creativity and the power of movement. It was like stepping into another world, another dimension entirely. And yes, my fuschia tutu, of course, came along for the ride! Nothing makes me feel more at home than watching a ballet performance in the perfect attire, blending in seamlessly with the artistry onstage!
To end the day on a high note, I made my way to Queen's Park, where I witnessed the magical world of nature up close and personal. I was lucky enough to see a family of grey squirrels enjoying a feast, reminding me that joy and wonder can be found even in the smallest things. Watching their graceful movements made me wish for tiny, pink tutu’s for them, but I guess I'll just have to keep dreaming!
Crewe was exactly what I needed today - a beautiful dose of history, beauty, and ballet inspiration. It really reminded me why I do what I do: to share the joy of dancing and inspire others to embrace their inner artist.
Now, I have to say goodnight! But before you go, let me leave you with a little thought: What could be more fun and joyful than embracing your inner dancer, strutting your stuff in a beautiful pink tutu? Come on, don’t be shy, grab a tulle skirt, and let’s get this show on the road! 🎉💕
Stay fabulous,
Emma xoxo
