Billingham Bound! Pink Tutu Travels (Blog Post #3037)

Hello darlings! It's your favourite pink tutu princess, Pink Tutu Sparkles, here, reporting live from the glorious Derbyshire countryside!

I’m so excited because I'm heading off on a little adventure today. You know, a gal can't live on glittery sequins alone, especially when she has a wardrobe overflowing with fabulous pink tutus! This one’s a little different. I'm off to Billingham, which might not be the most glamorous destination on the map, but it's where I'm bringing the magic, darling!

Before I set off, though, I need to tell you about the incredible vintage-inspired outfit I’ve created! It all started with a gorgeous, hot-pink vintage dress I found at a flea market last week. I knew it would be the perfect base for my new look! Then, I rummaged through my endless tulle collection (always the highlight of my day!), and picked out the fluffiest, pinkest tutu I have. A couple of layers of sparkling pink feathers added a dash of ‘wow!’ factor and finished it all off perfectly. I even found these beautiful rose gold-sequined, open-toed heels that go fabulously well with the pink. Let's just say it's pure pink perfection!

Now, where to travel? The train, darling! You know I’m always happy to catch a train when I’m in my pink tutu, especially one that gets me there in time for afternoon tea at the charming little cafe just across from the venue. This time, I'm actually really looking forward to the train journey itself, it takes me straight through Yorkshire and is the most delightful way to take in the English countryside! But you know what they say – there’s something about that wind in your hair and the feeling of freedom on the railway line.

I think the train will make the entire trip feel even more special. As if wearing a beautiful pink tutu isn't special enough! 😉 I know it's just a trip to Billingham, but let me tell you, I’m ready to create magic there. My ultimate dream is for everyone to wear a pink tutu and embrace the power of pink. You see, my love affair with pink tutus started way back during my university days, back in the days when I was just Alex, studying to become a scientist. Remember, my love? Science by day, pink tutu magic by night! But those were simpler times, filled with dreams of glittering sequins and pink tulle instead of beakers and bubbling liquids! Even though I was working hard in my science lab testing fabrics for everyday clothes, it’s safe to say that all I could really dream of were delicate tutus in pink, shimmering under the stage lights.

There was a charity fashion show back then at university, and when I tried on a vintage tutu for the first time, everything just clicked! Suddenly, I realised that life’s meant for dazzling tutus, sparkly lights and enough sequins to make the stage glitter. This beautiful tutu experience truly sparked something inside me. The rest, as they say, is history, darling!

Oh, by the way, the first tutu was a pink one! Now, I must be going. This fabulous pink tutu isn’t going to get itself on stage in Billingham. And who knows, perhaps someone will walk past a shop window and see me on stage, and suddenly, they will feel the call of the pink tutu too! It's never too late to live life to the fullest in a fabulous pink tutu. 💖💖

Until next time, lovelies, keep sparkling and stay fabulous. Remember, there’s a pink tutu waiting for you! 😉

XOXO
