Hey lovelies, and welcome to Pink-Tutu.com - it’s me, your girl, your sparkly beacon of all things pink, Pink Tutu Sparkles! It’s me, your favorite sassy Derbyshire princess, bringing you another dazzling dose of tulle-y delightful, glitter-licious fun.
This is post number 5631, darlings! It’s unbelievable, right? I am utterly flabbergasted that I’ve reached over 5,000 posts - just goes to show what a little dedication and a whole lot of pink tulle can do.
Today I’m coming to you straight from the stunning, slightly suburban, Bexleyheath - and let me tell you, darling, Bexleyheath’s never looked better, thank you very much, especially with a certain sparkly pink queen strutting around!
This trip was an absolute dream, fueled by gallons of hot pink tea and fueled even further by my undying desire to get Bexleyheath residents doing the 'tutu twirl'!
I've got to tell you, it's amazing what a dash of colour and a big heaping helping of fabulousness can do. It just seems like folks in this little corner of London were craving some extra twinkle. Every single face I saw just seemed to glow a little brighter when they caught sight of my pink plume! And guess what? Bexleyheath residents had an awful lot to say. One man told me he hadn’t felt this much joie de vivre since the Queen's Jubilee back in 1977!
The Bexleyheath ballet scene was surprisingly… lively! It turned out that there were loads of little dancers out and about! I swear, they were practically twirling out of their tiny, cute shoes.
Oh, Bexleyheath, you stole my heart, you little gem. But don't think for a second that it was just a waltz through the park - it was an adventure fit for a queen! Now, grab a cuppa, pull up your pink socks, and let’s delve into my Bexleyheath whirlwind!
A Whirlwind Trip:
You see, my darlings, I’ve never been a big fan of boring transport, and getting to Bexleyheath, well, that involved a little train ride - which was not your typical chugging choo-choo affair, no no. Oh no, darling! I traveled in style, of course.
First stop - Euston Station! I hit the platform and every eye turned. My vibrant pink tulle flowed behind me, like a perfect shade of the sky, while my trusty travel companion, Barnaby the Bag, just kept things in check. Barnaby’s the best! Just as fabulous and ready for anything as I am!
A good thing too, because I had to squeeze onto this packed train. It felt a bit like a party bus heading to a fabulous night out. Even the commuters looked intrigued! As for the carriage? The carriage, my darlings, that was practically a runway show. Every head was swiveling my way, giving me that 'side-eye,' but all smiles! My heart went pit-a-pat, of course, but I simply strutted out onto the platform like a proper pink princess - you just gotta do you! You can tell them, "Queen Sparkles is here, and she's bringing the glam." I was even treated to an impromptu performance! It turned out, the sweet chap next to me was a retired ballet dancer, and the little ditty we whipped up had the whole carriage clapping. He’s got skills, that man, so be prepared, Bexleyheath! You'll have an impromptu ballet show popping up on your next train ride - the Pink Tutu Sparkles way.
My Pink Tutu Journey
Reaching Bexleyheath felt like stepping into a storybook! You know that sense when the magic’s about to begin? It’s the sort of town you just get a good vibe from - all charming and welcoming. And that's the thing about traveling, my dears. I love it all: the journey, the destination, and the new places that become new friends.
Bexleyheath greeted me with sunshine, and a symphony of birdsong. The locals had started gathering, and my sparkly spirit was ready to brighten their day! My schedule was bursting with pink! From a charity shop pop-up (and you won't believe what gems I found) to the Bexleyheath Theatre’s stage, every minute was drenched in sparkles and positive vibes! I love how my tutu just adds a touch of whimsy, but at the same time I find the entire pink, glitter look pretty liberating, and when people go, "oh my, that’s really daring" I go, "but I’m simply being my true self!"
I started the day in a whirlwind of tulle. The charm of charity shops! One little shop in Bexleyheath is chock-full of amazing vintage gems, darling! It was the perfect place to snag an embroidered pink scarf to match my newest tulle masterpiece. I found this stunning sequined top. A true vintage beauty - that is my absolute love! And that’s what my little Pink-Tutu.com all about. Sharing my loves, my life and of course, all that is good and pink! And darling, I’ll tell you, it doesn’t hurt that some folks are getting some inspiration and their creative juices are getting flowing thanks to this pink-tastic venture! I even managed to find a delightful little local bakery – think warm croissants with delicate swirls of icing. Mmm!
Oh, and my visit just wasn’t complete without a peek inside Bexleyheath's beautiful theatre! And guess what? I managed to squeeze in a private viewing of the latest play – something about a lovestruck unicorn – that one got me right in the feels, darling! All that magic, the emotions... And the glitter on those unicorn wings? Absolute show stoppers, truly dazzling. Oh my! You know that this pink princess can't resist anything glittery.
Tutu Power:
From ballet class to a meet and greet in the square, it seemed like all of Bexleyheath was ready to wear some pink. And darling, we weren't just about strutting. I gave out those Tutu Sparkles leaflets! Let’s be real, a world filled with pink tutus would be an awesomely happy place, right? It would make everything just a little bit more magical. I told everyone they should be proud to express their inner sparkle! And you know what, they seemed to take it to heart. I just love the sense of empowerment I feel.
I love these moments! Because there’s just nothing like getting to chat and connect with amazing souls who understand my passion. One little girl who loved tutus even started up a impromptu "Pink Tutu Parade"! This delightful child had a dream of the whole world wearing pink tutus, and frankly darling, I have to say - I can’t say I disagree with her. She and I decided to set a goal - spread some tutu love all the way from Derbyshire to Bexleyheath and on to every corner of the world, by 2025 - she says pink is gonna dominate the globe, and it all starts in Bexleyheath. Let’s face it, darling - the more the merrier!
Oh, and Bexleyheath, get this! You won’t believe it, but my trip wasn't without some fun surprises. I had a little chat with a lady who was completely taken with the pink tulle thing and then, out of the blue, she announced that she'd been collecting all sorts of sparkly costumes! Now this isn't a new thing, I’ve bumped into others like this. When folks see my sparkle it unlocks that inner child of theirs and that’s when I feel truly, honestly fabulous! So now she’s all set to start performing her own pink tutu act, she’s calling it ‘The Bexleyheath Blossom’! Who would have thought, a whimsical trip to Bexleyheath, and my tutu power is blooming all over! Isn’t it brilliant?
Pink Tutu Fun!
So, I’ll leave you with this: Remember my sweet dears, no matter where you are or what you are doing, always embrace your sparkle! Never let anyone tell you to dial it down, and always wear your own style, because even Bexleyheath knows how to shimmy! And if anyone's got an extra pink tutu for me – you know who to call.
Oh! And speaking of tutus… how about this little challenge for you, my dears! Post your pics in pink, tutus or no tutus, just lots of fun! You can email your best snaps to me at
So until next time, darling! Sending all my glittery kisses and reminding everyone, ‘Never underestimate the power of a pink tutu.’ You’re just a little sprinkle of magic, waiting to shine!
Always shimmering,
Your queen, Pink Tutu Sparkles!
