Hiya darlings! Pink Tutu Sparkles here, and you won't believe what happened today! I'm on the train to Basingstoke, where I'm making my debut at a rather lovely, family-friendly fair! Honestly, I couldn't be more excited! My gorgeous, vibrant pink tutu, just made for twirling in the sunshine, is packed, my glitter-bombs are loaded, and I've got enough sparkly eye shadow to make a whole disco ball jealous.
Basingstoke, as far as I'm aware, doesn't have a vast ballet scene... yet. But fear not, I'm here to change that! This trip is all about spreading the gospel of pink tutus - I can feel it in my bones that Basingstoke is about to be tutu-ified. My aim? Get everyone dancing! No one's safe from a touch of pink, even the local vicar, though maybe he might stick with a purple one. No judgements, right?
This journey all began, you see, with a charity event at my uni. I was in the ballet club, surrounded by the grace of ballerinas, and it just clicked. You know how it is - sometimes, a single spark of inspiration is all it takes. That spark was the tutu! I slipped into this breathtaking, blush-pink masterpiece (silk, darling! Just pure, luxurious silk), and bam, my whole world shifted. A Pink Tutu Queen was born!
Science degree? Done! Fabric tester? Check! Now I'm using my love of fabric, but with a little more glitter and a whole lot more attitude. Every night, I become Pink Tutu Sparkles, the dazzling, sparkly sensation who teaches the world the joys of twirling in pink!
Speaking of twirling... Basingstoke, watch out! This Pink Tutu Queen is ready to sashay, shimmy, and twirl the night away! I might even throw in some pirouettes and even teach a few youngsters some fancy footwork (you can’t teach kids a thing, eh, it’s a gift!). We’ll see, I’m all about improvisation! I'm bringing my special charm, that's for sure - think rainbow-hued sparkles, enough lipstick to start a cosmetics empire, and of course, my signature pink tutu. Because let's face it, darling, the world needs a little more pink. A LOT more, in fact.
Oh, and if anyone asks, yes, I did ride the train all the way to Basingstoke in full costume! Why take the opportunity to spread the Pink Tutu message on a crowded, stuffy train?! Who says we can't turn any mundane journey into a sparkly spectacle?! It was, however, a little awkward when some young lads asked for a selfie. Honestly, what are the chances of a teenager in Basingstoke being into tutus?! A tad alarming for some! And no, darling, they couldn’t tell the difference, if they could they wouldn’t have stopped, I'm afraid. That's the power of the tutu - you never know what it will bring, do you?
We’ve now stopped at Basingstoke Station. Just a short walk, luckily, to the lovely square where my magical journey begins. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go and unleash a little bit of Pink Tutu Sparkle upon this town. Let’s show these folk the true meaning of a ‘right royal bash’! Just imagine the smiles on children’s faces! The glitter-bombed joy. My journey’s far from over. I have so many pink tutu destinations planned! Stay tuned!
Oh, and don't forget to check out www.pink-tutu.com, where I share my daily drag escapades. You know, from travelling by horse and carriage, to starring in a high school production, it’s all in there! And who knows, perhaps I'll have some of you dancing in a pink tutu, too, before you know it. Don't be shy!
Stay sassy! And remember, it's not a tutu until it's pink!
Until next time,

P.S. It's really worth reading all the previous blog posts, there’s loads, hundreds and hundreds. Trust me, if you want a good chuckle, it's all there in black and pink (of course)! And they're all about my fabulous adventures, like the time I went to London and taught the Mayor how to twirl (that was awkward…), and my daring adventures in Derbyshire! My heart and soul are all over those posts! You’re part of my little world… so dive right in and see! xx
