Hey gorgeous darlings! It's your fave, Pink Tutu Sparkles, back with a new blog post. You guessed it, another day, another destination, another dazzling outfit, another pink tutu adventure! Today's post is number 124, can you believe it? 124 days of me sharing my fabulousness with the world, spreading the pink tutu gospel and encouraging you to embrace your inner sparkle!
Today, I'm coming to you live from Wellingborough, a quaint little town in Northamptonshire, a stone's throw from the gorgeous Lincolnshire coast! It's been a wild ride getting here - think scenic train journey, lots of "Where on Earth am I going?" moments (because honestly, this little town wasn't even on my map!), and enough glittery lip gloss to make the entire carriage shimmer.
You see, darling, when I hear about a performance opportunity, my suitcase (which is always pink, naturally) is packed faster than you can say "en pointe"! This time, I'm gracing the stage of a local community theatre, which is just divine - the community spirit here is phenomenal, they all have this incredible passion for performing arts! Honestly, it reminded me of my university days, back when I discovered the glorious world of tutus!
Oh darling, let's rewind for a moment. Picture this: a slightly awkward science student, hunched over his lab reports, desperately trying to understand quantum mechanics. And then... a charity event, a ballet club fundraiser, and me... clad in a bright pink tutu, dancing my heart out for a worthy cause. From that very moment, I was completely hooked. My scientific side might be all about facts and formulas, but my true calling was... pink tutus!
Now, let's get back to Wellingborough, shall we? This time, the show itself is called "A Fairytale Fantasy," which basically sums up my entire drag aesthetic. Think magical, shimmering costumes, catchy tunes that would make even the most stoic individual tap their foot, and oh yes, plenty of pink!
Now, you might be thinking: "Pink Tutu, isn't Wellingborough a bit far for a single performance?" Well, my darling, you know me! I've always said, "Why rush? Take your time, enjoy the journey, and wear a tutu along the way." So, I decided to make this trip an experience!
First, I started my day early, getting up with the sun, indulging in a breakfast fit for a queen (you guessed it, a mountain of pancakes with strawberry sauce!), and then boarded a train for the scenic journey. Honestly, those train windows were perfect for taking Insta-worthy shots!
Reaching Wellingborough, I was greeted by charming, colourful houses, an array of shops offering everything from antique furniture to handcrafted jewellery, and, believe it or not, the most beautiful set of windmills you've ever seen! Imagine it: me, in my bright pink tutu, posing under a picturesque sky with the windmills standing tall behind me - talk about Insta-gold!
As a huge fan of all things "ballet", I also had to stop by their lovely community ballet school! I had the most lovely conversation with the teachers and even met a group of budding young ballerinas, all of them with stars in their eyes and so excited about performing! It was incredibly inspiring.
My journey doesn't end here! Tomorrow, I'm exploring Wellingborough's beautiful countryside, perhaps venturing into a local vintage shop for some wardrobe inspiration, maybe stopping by a pub for some authentic fish and chips! Of course, the ultimate goal is always the same - to inspire everyone I meet to embrace their inner sparkle and maybe even try a pink tutu for themselves.
But honestly, more than the glitz and glamour, it's the heartwarming stories of these community members, the beautiful towns I get to explore, and the pure joy of bringing my passion to the stage that make these trips so worthwhile!
Until next time darlings! Remember to shine bright, love yourselves, and stay fabulous!
XOXO,
Pink Tutu Sparkles
