Darling darlings! Get ready to grab your pink tutus, my pretties, because Pink Tutu Sparkles is hitting the streets of Berlin! This is, quite literally, a dream come true! As you all know, Berlin has been top of my "Must-Visit" list for ages, and finally, my little pink dream has come true!
So let me paint a picture for you, darling, of how we got here. Imagine a day like any other, only with a little more pink. My life in Derbyshire is wonderful, really! A proper good mix of lab life (where I test fabrics for durability - imagine me, in a lab coat and sparkly shoes - I do, I do!) and my lovely pink tutu drag act which, you all know, I adore! The magic of transforming myself each night, into Pink Tutu Sparkles, truly keeps me feeling fabulous and so sparkly. But lately, a yearning had been blossoming, well more like a flamboyant “Pink Tutu Sparkles Blooming in Full Flower,” in my soul for the bright lights, big buildings, and das leben, of Germany's amazing capital.
So, armed with my suitcase packed to the brim with tutus, glittery frocks, and a suitcase full of blush-toned eyeshadows, I took to the stage, to earn my journey! And guess what? My beautiful Berlin trip is funded in no small part by a truly fabulous "vintage gameshow" event where I was a special guest. All those long nights perfecting my "Pie Eating Championship" skills finally paid off! So, the plan was hatched, a train journey, a grand adventure to Germany’s iconic Hauptstadt, for the thrill of the theatre.
And then? Then the most exciting part began. A chance meeting with the most fabulous lady, at one of those grand English stately home charity ball events. A bonk bonk moment! She’s connected to a theatre troupe, and wouldn’t you know it, the group was doing a ballet show right here in Berlin! This truly was the sign, my darling! A pink tutu divine intervention! I just had to be there. I would wear my sparkliest pink tulle and stand by ready to inspire with my unique performance at this special ballet performance, and what an event it was, so divine and graceful, the ballet was just glorious and so pink. You just couldn't beat that.
Oh my darling, my journey to Berlin was beyond exciting. The train journey was, in my opinion, so luxurious. Imagine sitting in a luxurious padded seat with the gentle rhythmic clinking of train wheels, just the sound of those wheels going clickety-clackety on the track and the sound of my favourite ballet music filling my ears - divine, truly divine! There was an added bonus! Right next to me was a kind gentlemen from Paris. (It turns out his favourite colour is also pink. Talk about serendipity, or maybe fate!) We ended up having a wonderful chat, comparing favourite ballets (mine, of course, is 'The Pink Ballerina') and what to see in the wonderful capital! Talk about perfect travel companions, I must have pinkified him somehow! We spent the entire train journey planning our pink fashion shopping adventure and even decided it'd be grand to learn a bit of the German waltz (how sophisticated!). The plan? After the show, we would go to a ballet school to try out our new dance moves - such fabulous fun!
Arriving at the heart of Berlin, it was all ahhhhs! (Imagine, the famous ahhhhs from those old film noirs). So very romantic, just like the old films - though with added glitter. I checked into my hotel room and - Oh darling - you must see! It’s literally decorated like a pastel dream with swathes of beautiful pink silk on the curtains, with crystal pink sparkles - It’s just divine! Truly, darling, this is how a real Pink Tutu Sparkle stays!
Speaking of being a true queen, that’s where my Berlin trip really takes off - boom - a sparkly explosion of joy! Imagine me, my dear, right there on the stage in the centre of Berlin! It was truly magnificent! With a fabulous spotlight, a microphone, and my own unique dance routines to the sweet melody of pink music, I managed to fill the whole hall with joy! My Berlin audiences, well, they loved every minute of the Pink Tutu Sparkle!
From then on, the fun was simply endless, Darling. I walked through the gorgeous city centre in my little pink tulle tutu and - what a surprise - there was an actual shop just bursting with fabulous pink dresses, a veritable dream. It was like stepping into the Pink Tutu Paradise. They had so many delightful pastel dresses, each one like a delicate pink blooming flower. It's one of the things I adore the most about Berlin, it's so much like a storybook! So we were back to shopping for my grand new wardrobe (how I adore my pink wardrobe!). Of course, I couldn't just buy for myself! We bought all my fellow 'tutu-ettes' from Derbyshire some stunning outfits as a thank you for their support for my show!
It wasn’t just all fun and games, my darling! As I strolled past the iconic Reichstag building I paused and looked, the moment stopped. A sense of awe and reflection descended on me. Berlin, such a rich and poignant history! Such resilience! As we walked along the beautiful promenade near the Spree river - well darling, it’s so stunningly peaceful and relaxing - you could see a great mixture of young families, people out walking their dogs (don't you think there's an amazing pink tutu and dog walk event in the making, right here?!) and beautiful old world charm, even an old horse carriage tootle through the grand city - I know!
Now back in my cosy little hotel room (pink cushions are a must) with a lovely cup of herbal tea (it is truly a ritual to indulge) I just want to say a massive thank you to the Pink Tutu Sparkles fanbase who make everything so magical and sparkle so brightly. Thank you for sending me to the wonderful City of Berlin, my dream trip was made possible because of you. You are truly pinkylicious and fabulous - every one!
Don't forget to follow me, my dears, on Pink-Tutu.com for a new daily dose of fabulous fashion and everything that’s just a little bit pink, plus more Berlin adventures (oh, it really is quite a treat!). As always darling, I leave you with this one little gem of a pink, glittering truth "You don’t need a tutu, to be a pink Tutu Sparkle." That’s my advice to the world! Be fabulous. Have a super fabulous and sparkly weekend!
