Hello lovelies! It's your favourite pink tutu princess, Pink Tutu Sparkles, back with another exciting adventure, ready to sprinkle some glitter and joy onto your day! This is post number 2782 for those of you who like to keep track – every day a new pink tulle dream! And you can find all my sparkly adventures over at www.pink-tutu.com – that's where I tell you all about the latest happenings in the fabulous world of Pink Tutu Sparkles.
Today, darling, we're off to Hitchin! This historic little town in Hertfordshire, a hop and skip away from London, was calling to me like a whisper of pink chiffon. The cobbled streets, quaint shops and a lovely park seemed tailor-made for a fabulous tutu-clad escapade. I love a bit of a road trip – this time it was on the train (first class, of course!). You know me, I'm a firm believer that life is too short for the cattle class, and besides, who wants their tulle to get all rumpled on a sweaty commuter journey? A nice comfy seat and a bit of gentle scenery to admire – I find travelling on the train is such a lovely, tranquil way to journey to my next sparkly performance.
Let's talk outfits, darlings! For this trip, I decided to go for a full-on Victorian pink princess vibe. You know, the kind of thing they would wear in "Sense and Sensibility" if Jane Austen had known about tutus. Imagine frills upon frills, a flowing train, a lace bodice, and the pinkest tutu ever – the stuff of tutu dreams! Of course, I had to add some of my signature sparkles and some fabulous feather boas. You simply can't go wrong with feathers and sparkle. Trust me on this.
Hitchin is just brimming with charming little shops, darling. It was like being in a real-life Victorian fairy tale! I must have popped into half a dozen antique stores. I can’t resist a good old trinket, you know. But I also discovered some delightful little independent boutiques selling clothing, homewares, and a gorgeous bookshop. That's the beauty of travelling to places off the beaten track – you discover little treasures you'd never find in the big city. It's all about the unexpected little delights, isn't it? I just knew there'd be a fab café for a pitstop for afternoon tea. And, of course, I indulged in a lovely cup of Earl Grey, a perfectly buttered scone, and a slice of Victoria sponge. It wouldn’t be a Pink Tutu Sparkles adventure without some treats, darling!
After my afternoon tea extravaganza, I was ready to get my glitter on. I was performing at a local fair in the evening, so I had to find my stage, or rather, my stage, "The Fairground of Pink Tutu Delight". You can see photos from my amazing show on my social media accounts (you are following me, right? If not, then darling, you’re missing out!)
I performed a mix of classical ballet favourites and some contemporary numbers, all set to the most fabulous music, naturally. The crowd loved it – you should have seen the faces, so filled with joy and wonder! I think I just might have sparked a tutu revolution in Hitchin. And let's face it, the world needs a bit more pink tutu sparkle, right?
I finished my day with a little stroll through the lovely park, taking in the beauty of a calm English evening, dreaming up my next sparkling adventure. After all, a princess never truly rests!
