Basingstoke Bound! 🩰 #TutuQueen Post #1598

Hello my gorgeous darlings! It's your favourite Tutu Queen, Pink Tutu Sparkles, here, reporting live from my little pink haven of a dressing room in good ol' Derbyshire!

Today's adventure takes me all the way to Basingstoke. It's going to be a right knees-up as I'm performing at the town's biggest summer fair, showcasing my most flamboyant pink tutu for all the local lovely people to see. Imagine, a whole sea of excited faces staring up at me in wonder, all bathed in the rosy glow of the evening sun, a chorus of "oohs" and "ahhs" as my glittering pink tulle swirls and twirls. It's a true blessing to share my love of sparkle and all things pink with the world, you know!

Now, some of you might be thinking, "Basingstoke? A bit out of the way, love, don't you think?" Well, darling, the journey is part of the fun! You see, I'm a true romantic at heart and have an insatiable love for all things whimsical. My journey, as usual, involves a little bit of whimsy and a whole lot of sparkle.

The sun is shining brightly, a beautiful sky like a giant pink ribbon, which suits my mood perfectly. As you know, pink is not just a colour; it's a state of mind. It’s that feeling of pure joy, the confidence of strutting your stuff, the sweetness of a strawberry ice cream on a hot summer day. So, obviously, I couldn't resist popping on my favourite pink sundress, all fluffy and flowy, a pink-feathered boa, and my best pink straw hat, to match the sky and the sunshine. You have to make a statement wherever you go, right? 😉 Even if it's just to get a bacon bap and a coffee at the local café.

My friend Fiona - a true style icon with a knack for putting together the most fabulous outfits, even if it's just for a quick trip to the shops - offered me a lift to the station. Now, this is where things get a little… unexpected.

Turns out, Fiona decided to spice things up a bit with her "slightly rebellious" pink convertible. Now, you all know how much I love a good horse ride - the wind in your hair, the gentle clip-clop of hooves on the cobbled road…pure magic! But this, this was different. I couldn’t stop squealing as we sped down the open road, the pink fabric flapping in the wind like a flamboyant flag. Oh, darling, Fiona knows how to put on a show. And to think I nearly left the house without my sunglasses! Thank heavens I thought to bring them. It’s going to be quite the adventure to Basingstoke today!

Don’t worry, dearies, I will update you all on the fair. What should I wear tonight? Hmm, I do love the bright pink, feathered tutu, but perhaps I should go for something a little bit different. My fabulous, new, sequined hot pink leotard would certainly create a splash... Oh dear, so many options!

But for now, it’s time to pack my things and grab a cup of tea with a dash of milk - because you all know, a proper queen is never complete without a good old-fashioned brew. And let's face it, who doesn’t love a steaming hot cup of tea on a bright summer’s day? The sun shining, the wind whispering through the trees… ah, life is good, isn't it? But don’t think this little pink princess is forgetting her true purpose! After a cheeky treat and a relaxing moment, it's time to get prepped for a dazzling evening show. It’s showtime, and Pink Tutu Sparkles is about to light up the town of Basingstoke.

Keep your eyes peeled for a new post later, you won’t want to miss the grand spectacle!

Remember, darling, the most important thing is to stay true to yourself and, well, rock that pink tutu!

Stay fabulous and pink, darlings!

Love,

Pink Tutu Sparkles xoxo
