Hello darlings! Pink Tutu Sparkles here, reporting live from the glorious town of Hindley!
Can you believe it's been a whole 24 hours since my last post? I've been a busy little bee, flitting around the country, spreading the gospel of pink tutus, and let me tell you, Hindley has been an absolute dream!
Firstly, let's talk about the journey! It's so much more fun travelling by train. It gives me the perfect opportunity to get into my full Pink Tutu Sparkles gear - my outfit today is a delightful cerise concoction with matching sequined gloves and a pink feathered boa, oh so glam! All aboard the pink tutu express! I'm so lucky that the local train station had a dedicated "Pink Tutu Sparkles" carriage, all adorned in pink and frills. They even had a little bar cart selling miniature pink cocktails. Honestly, you couldn't ask for a more magical journey.
Once I arrived in Hindley, the first order of business was to get some inspiration, of course! And where better to find inspiration than the town's famous "Ballet Boutique." Let me tell you, the array of tutus was simply divine! My eyes were practically popping out of my head. We're talking chiffon, tulle, and satin in every colour imaginable - but, of course, pink reigned supreme. I indulged in a little retail therapy, buying the most delicate lilac tutu for my next performance in Sheffield.
I had a little afternoon tea break at a delightful little tearoom, with scones and clotted cream. The ladies all gave me a good chuckle at my pink attire but with genuine, good-humoured smiles. And wouldn't you know it, one of the ladies confessed she had a pink tutu stashed away in her wardrobe. Talk about a serendipitous moment!
In the evening, I had the pleasure of performing at a local theatre. The crowd was a delight! Everyone was so welcoming and open to my sparkly pink message of joy and positivity. The show was an absolute blast, with ballet moves, twirling, and lots of pink feather boas thrown into the crowd. Even the town's Mayor got up to twirl on stage with me. Now, THAT was a surprise!
I had a great chat with a few local kids who were simply mesmerised by my pink tutu and glittering tiara. They told me all about their dreams of being a ballerina, and I gave them the best advice I could: practice, practice, practice, and wear pink!
After the show, the whole town was abuzz! People kept asking for selfies with their very own Pink Tutu Sparkles. I’m a big believer in spreading glitter, positivity, and joy everywhere I go - and, of course, the magic of the pink tutu! It was quite a night for the Hindley locals and for yours truly!
Overall, I have to say, Hindley was simply perfect! It's full of lovely, open-minded people, delicious afternoon teas, and plenty of opportunities for Pink Tutu Sparkles to shine.
The locals even started their very own “Pink Tutu for Everyone!” charity fundraiser to help underprivileged kids go to the ballet. I mean, is it just me, or is Hindley one of the most amazing, fun-loving towns ever?
You know what they say: If you can't wear a pink tutu in Hindley, where can you wear one?
Love,
Pink Tutu Sparkles
XOXO
