Hello my darlings! It's your girl Pink Tutu Sparkles, reporting live from Southall!
Can you believe it? Blog post number 1884, and I’m still going strong! I feel like I’ve been blogging forever, sharing my fabulous adventures and spreading the pink tutu love around the globe (or at least, the UK).
Speaking of adventures, this weekend has been a right royal one. I was invited to perform in Southall, and let me tell you, it was a proper hoot! Southall's always such a lively place, a melting pot of cultures and personalities, and my fellow performers and the audience were just wonderful.
Getting There in Style
I'm not gonna lie, sometimes the journey is just as fun as the destination. I adore travelling by train. The rhythmic clatter, the wide views, and of course, the chance to admire fellow passengers' outfits. This time, I was feeling a bit extra and opted for a scarlet red skirt with a huge, bright pink polka-dot tulle overlay, and my trusty sparkly heels, of course. You can never be too flamboyant on the train, in my opinion.
The Southall Spectacle
I performed in a little theatre in the heart of Southall. The audience was amazing, full of energy and laughter. They absolutely loved the performance. I even had a little boy in the front row doing the tutus along with me. He’d be a great addition to the Pink Tutu Gang! The theme of the show was “Spring into Life” and I got to debut a brand-new sparkly pink number, complete with an actual, real pink flower crown.
Speaking of flowers, did you know that they have an absolutely stunning flower market in Southall? After the show, my fabulous fellow performer, Daisy Chain Diamond, and I took a stroll down the vibrant streets and stumbled upon this beautiful market. It was like stepping into a kaleidoscope of colors and scents. Daisy even managed to snag some gorgeous lilac blossoms for her stage costume. You’d never guess what colour that new tutu was going to be…
The Science of Sparkle
Before I became Pink Tutu Sparkles, I was just a humble lab assistant. Yup, I have a degree in textile science! Who knew those years in the lab testing fabric would help me later in my career? Honestly, my research days gave me an appreciation for detail and craftsmanship. Now I understand exactly what makes the fabric of my pink tutus flow and sparkle just so. The sheer science of sparkle, darling!
Living in Pink, Darling
Life's all about colour, about making it fun and fabulous. I feel that pink tutus encapsulate everything about this feeling. I'm sure, deep down, everyone has a secret yearning to embrace their inner Pink Tutu Sparkles. I see it in people's eyes when I strut my stuff. And hey, you don’t need a whole-body pink tutu! It's about the confidence, the joy, and the sheer expression of yourself. So go ahead, get that pink tutu out, dance in the streets, spread some pink tutu magic, and join the Pink Tutu revolution!
