Hello my dears! Emma here, your trusty #TutuTuesday blogger from www.pink-tutu.com, ready to whisk you away on another trip through time! Today, I'm putting on my most dazzling pink tutu (it's pink and sparkly - naturally!) and taking you all the way back to January 26th, 1937. Oh, my darlings, it was a golden age!
But First, Pink Tutu Business...
You know how much I adore tutus - they're simply the perfect embodiment of elegance, grace, and, well, a touch of whimsy, don't you think? And today's outfit is certainly proving my point. My trusty travel tutu is a gorgeous pink, swirled with layers of tulle. Oh, it simply flows when I spin, don't you think? And for an extra touch of sparkle, I've added some tiny pink gems. What could be more fabulous?
Anyway, I digress... As usual, I've hopped on the trusty train (it’s always so much more fun to arrive by rail when one is dressed like this, I assure you) and found myself back in the land of tutu-love... London! There's just a certain je ne sais quoi about London and dance! It's almost as enchanting as Paris, wouldn't you say?
A Ballet-Filled Day in 1937...
1937, oh dear reader, was a delightful time for dance! Just think, at this very moment in time, we'd have found all the stars of the era at the glorious Covent Garden Opera House. Oh, how I long for such a night! To watch Margot Fonteyn pirouette across the stage, and witness the power of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes. It would have been pure magic, don’t you think?
And you know what, there are so many other ballet-tastic things happening today! The Royal Ballet is on the rise and everyone’s excited to see their latest work, the ever-so-popular ‘Sleeping Beauty’. This particular performance would be a stunning sight! Just imagine, ballerinas in shimmering costumes and dazzling tutus, weaving magical stories with every move! How exquisite! It's hard not to dream of dancing on stage alongside them.
Oh, and let's not forget the Sadler's Wells Theatre. This vibrant place is a true haven for dance lovers! They are featuring their renowned Ballet Rambert troupe, which always promises to bring a unique and captivating experience. Just imagine all those swirling tutus and perfectly executed moves! I bet I could steal a couple of their tricks.
And talking of inspiration... wouldn’t it be simply delightful to find a piece of dance history on my travels through London this fine day! Imagine stumbling upon the Royal Ballet School, where I could learn some of the famous barre exercises and explore all those tutu-laden dance studios! Perhaps, I might even find the perfect, perfectly pink, tutu for a budding young ballerina. Perhaps in the chic stores of Regent Street or perhaps on the vibrant streets of Soho.
Oh! The possibilities!
My Dream of Sharing Pink Tutus Everywhere!
Don't you agree, my dear readers, that every day is a tutu-filled adventure? It's truly exciting, isn't it? And that brings me to something very special... a small but rather grand dream of mine: to share the joy of tutus with everyone!
Just think, how wonderful it would be if every day felt like #TutuTuesday. Imagine little ballerinas in miniature tutus twirling in their playrooms, and older ladies in elegant pink tulle frolicking in gardens. It would be pure magical whimsy, wouldn't you agree? And so, I encourage you, my darling readers, to embrace the twirl, the pink, the sheer joy of movement!
Go forth and dance your heart out, and if you can't manage a full tutu, I urge you, please embrace the colour pink - after all, pink is the ultimate expression of feminine delight!
Until next week, dear reader, happy twirling, and remember: It's never too late to find the pink tutu that sets your heart aflutter!
With a flourish,
Emma
