Hello, darlings! It's your TutuQueen, Pink Tutu Sparkles, here with blog post number 5242, fresh from the delightful seaside town of Weston-super-Mare! Oh, how I adore a good seaside escapade - the crisp sea air, the laughter of children, and the tantalizing scent of fish and chips! 🐠🍟
This time, I travelled by train, naturally - it's a fabulous way to soak in the scenery and indulge in a little pre-show glamour. And darling, let me tell you, this little seaside town knows how to party!
Now, before I dive into the dazzling details of my time in Weston, I must confess to you all a secret... I, your Pink Tutu Sparkles, have a new obsession! Well, new-ish, really, it's just become completely overwhelming. It's pink polka dots! Oh, darling, how divine! 😍 It all started last week, whilst browsing the fabulous frock shops in Manchester - I stumbled upon this gorgeous polka dot blouse, a shocking pink, with black dots, and the love affair began. The material, a delicious blend of silk and cotton, felt just divine against my skin - a sensation, I can tell you!
Since then, I've been living in a polka dot-tastic dream, my whole life tinged with a little dotty delight. From my pink polka dot teacups (bought in a lovely antique shop, darling - the perfect little addition to my collection!) to my matching polka dot hair clips and handbag - I can't resist the temptation. The other girls even helped me add a row of polka dots to my Tutu-licious masterpiece, the dazzling sequined tutu! Now, when I twirl under the disco ball, the light reflects on those dots, creating a spectacular shimmer. 🤩
Oh, darling, you have to admit, polka dots and tutus? Pure perfection, simply divine! My biggest worry, of course, is how much it’s all costing, as my love of the polka dots has had a most surprising impact on my bank account! But, then again, isn’t looking divine always worth a little pinch in the pocket? 😏
But let's return to the wonders of Weston-super-Mare, where the seaside wind whispered stories of glitter and joy. My arrival coincided with a glorious spring day - sunshine and blue skies galore, and not a drop of rain! It was the perfect opportunity to take a leisurely stroll along the promenade, to let the gentle sea breeze whip my pink-hued hair about my face, and to revel in the spectacle of a truly beautiful town.
I began my Weston-super-Mare adventure with a visit to the Grand Pier, an iconic structure that has stood proud on the seafront for over a century! This magnificent, Victorian Pier houses everything from family-friendly amusements to exciting fairground rides! There were shooting hoops, spinning cups, and even a roller coaster - it had everything to appeal to a child (of any age) like me! ✨
And of course, a visit to a seaside town wouldn't be complete without a delicious helping of fish and chips, freshly cooked and served with a dollop of tartar sauce! You know, darling, it just doesn't get more British than that. As I savoured every morsel, a thought crossed my mind - it must be absolutely exhilarating to be a seagull swooping down, snatching chips from a diner’s paper wrap! 🤣 But darling, that's a little story for another day.
And as the sun began its descent, casting long, golden shadows across the beach, it was time to prepare for the show. My sparkly, sequinned, pink tutu costume (with those extra polka dots, of course!) was ready, the lights were blinding, the microphone gleamed in anticipation, and I knew, darling, it was going to be a magical night.
I love to take the opportunity of performing outside, in beautiful, historic buildings. This night, it was an ancient, brick-built hall above a charming seaside café! The room, lined with portraits of long-forgotten dignitaries, was buzzing with excitement - I've got to admit, a room of enthusiastic patrons all wearing a vibrant pink polka dot outfit is rather a wonderful sight. 💖
The music thumped, the disco ball spun, and my show, full of sparkly energy, was a whirlwind of laughter and joyous tunes. My set list - a medley of the best pop tunes - had the whole room on their feet! The evening was a true delight. A young lady in the audience, resplendent in her own pink tutu, requested my signature 'Twirling Tutu Time', so of course, I obliged. Her eyes lit up as we shared a magnificent, sparkly twirl. It was beautiful, a truly magical moment.
As the show came to an end, a wave of warmth swept over me, I was on a high - feeling the sheer joy of being on stage, connecting with my audience, spreading my infectious enthusiasm, and inspiring everyone to embrace their inner sparkly, fun side!
The night, like a perfectly spun ballet performance, left me breathless with wonder, with a new love for this quaint little town and a strong desire to come back, very soon! I left Weston-super-Mare feeling, as always, absolutely utterly divine. ✨💖
So, there you have it, darlings, another glittering escapade complete! Until next time, may your days be full of sparkles, your outfits glamorous, and your life bursting with pink polka dot joy!
Yours in sequins,
Pink Tutu Sparkles 💖✨
