Helloooo my beautiful darlings! Pink Tutu Sparkles here, ready to whisk you away on another adventure! Today, we’re venturing out of the city and into the charming little town of Earley. Oh, Earley, you’re a breath of fresh air with your quaint streets and sweet little shops, like a doll’s house come to life.
Today, darling, I’m feeling oh so vintage – think Audrey Hepburn meets a sprinkle of Tinkerbell, with a dash of those magnificent tutus that steal your breath away. The train journey was absolutely divine! Nothing beats the rhythmic chugging, the soft click-clack of the wheels on the tracks, and that satisfying whiff of warm air as we speed through the countryside. And the best part? My pink-tutu-clad self could completely lose myself in the view! Fields of vibrant green, meadows dappled with wildflowers, and sheep that seemed to be watching my fabulous entrance with bewildered fascination – truly a delight!
The show in Earley was positively magical. My performance in this gorgeous, light-pink, ruffled creation, all fluffy layers and sparkling sequins, was just divine. Every twirl was a little ballet story in itself, filled with grace, sparkle, and all the joy I could muster.
Honestly, I’ve found myself so drawn to ballet lately. There's just something captivating about those fluid movements, the sheer athleticism, and the sheer beauty of a perfectly executed pirouette. And I can’t help but try to emulate it all in my own way, adding a touch of Pink Tutu magic to every performance. I've even been indulging in a bit of ballet class here and there – just for the sheer joy of dancing, naturally. It's incredible what these fabulous costumes and the passion for performance can bring to one's life, you know? It makes me want to share it with the entire world!
But let's talk about the real reason I came to Earley! Oh my darling dears, there is a quaint little vintage shop in this sweet town that had my name written all over it. A true paradise for all things pink, pretty, and frilly! I found myself practically melting in the doorway as I gazed upon rows and rows of lacy, silk scarves, delicate hair clips, and oh, the hat collection! One in particular was positively captivating, a perfect shade of pale pink with a ribbon tied with a graceful, swirling knot. Of course, it immediately had to be mine. It felt like it was just meant for my next fabulous performance – and my upcoming trip to a fair! I can’t wait to share my amazing outfit on Instagram – I already have a plan for some dramatic, whimsical shots to highlight that little pink hat!
Speaking of fairs, darling, I have one of my favourite little gigs next week. A charming fair right in the heart of a pretty village in Derbyshire. My birthplace, darling! The air is just bursting with life, excitement, and those tantalising fairground treats that just make you feel like a child again! This trip will be extra special for a personal reason, too. You see, my fabulous parents, the best supporters a drag queen could ever have, are attending this one! They love the tutu magic as much as I do, which fills me with pride.
And let’s not forget those glorious horses! Oh, darling, it’s such a delight to get around the country by horse sometimes, truly an experience for all the senses. I mean, who can resist the gentle sway of the saddle, the clop-clop of hooves on cobblestone streets, the sweet smell of hay, and the stunning views along the countryside paths? The entire experience feels like a charming adventure in a fairy tale! Of course, I dress for the occasion, in a flowing, pink, silken dress, a beautiful hat, and – well, of course – a gorgeous tutu. No less, my dears! It wouldn’t be right for a Tutu Queen like me to journey on horseback without it.
You see, darling, that's the beauty of being a drag queen: You’re always ready to step into a role, a world of pure fantasy and joy! Today, I’m a dancing princess, tomorrow I'm a whimsical adventurer. Each day, a new story unfolds with a sprinkle of fairy dust and a whole lot of pink sparkle!
I just love what I do, darling, and I hope you love reading about my travels as much as I love having them. Remember, keep on sparkling and embrace all that’s beautiful about life. And of course, remember what Pink Tutu Sparkles says, everyone can wear a tutu – all you need is the courage to shine!
Much love,
Pink Tutu Sparkles x
