Hello my darling darlings! Itās Pink Tutu Sparkles here, and youāve landed on blog post number 6338! Woohoo!
Oh my gosh, you wonāt believe the adventure I had in Morden!
Now, before we even get into the whirlwind of pinkness that awaits, letās talk tutus! Iāve got this divine new one - a symphony of salmon pink tulle with hand-stitched sparkly hearts. It just whispers āLet's do this, Morden!ā Iāve been twirling it around my flat for days, planning the outfits. And let me tell you, the colour pink has been popping!
This time, Iām combining the love of pink tutus with a love ofā¦ trains!
Yes, my lovely lovelies, it was a fabulous train journey to Morden. You see, the thrill of the railway is something that gets my heart pumping. That iconic sound of the train pulling away, the smell of steamā¦ Itās almost like a stage curtain rising!
Of course, it wouldn't be a Pink Tutu Sparkles adventure without a look, darling. This time I'm thinking bouffant pink wig with sparkly pink eyeliner, a fluffy, pink, faux fur jacket, and matching glittery boots. Oh, the compliments I received on that train journey! "Are you off to a party, darling?" one lady chuckled, beaming at my outrageous, pink fluff. I mean, she wasnāt wrong! It's a constant party for Pink Tutu Sparkles, even on a Monday morning.
Anyway, when I arrived in Morden, my dear, dear friends had arranged for me to visit this amazing old, quirky little theatre - the kind you see in those sweet old British films with all the actors doing silly dances and wearing colourful wigs! And guess what?
They let me wear my sparkly pink tutu! SQUEEEEAL! Oh my gosh, it was fabulous. Thereās nothing quite like twirling in a tutu with the history of old, timber beams surrounding you and a sense of mischief hanging in the air. I even met a gentleman who said he used to go to ballet classes there as a child! He said he thought I was quite "the character," (Which I am!)
Speaking of ballet, my darlings, there was an opportunity for Pink Tutu Sparkles to truly shine in Morden, something that even a tutu with hand-stitched sparkly hearts could not compete with... ballet street dance classes! I know! Honestly, it was amazing. We did these wild moves inspired by ballet, street dance, and everything in between!
But hereās the best bit. I saw so many smiling faces. I had a gentleman join in on one of the dance moves who had never done ballet in his life, and his beaming grin afterwards, well, my dear, you know what they say, āA little pink sparkle goes a long way!ā
That's what this is all about, my darlings, spreading joy and kindness. Itās a Pink Tutu Sparkles thing! I have my eye on getting the whole of Morden wearing pink tutus. Honestly, if I could just convince everyone, even those shy folks at the back, to give a good, full twirl... that would truly be magical.
In the afternoon, I ventured to the local markets, darling, and let me tell you, it was a glorious display of local crafts! A charming stallholder even offered me some delicious, home-baked bread! Imagine - homemade, artisan, and, of course, shaped intoā¦ a pink tutu!! I could not resist a few slices. Oh, and I got a gorgeous pink sparkly brooch too, to go with the tutu, natch!
And of course, every day needs to end with a delicious meal, right? So, the highlight of the day was finding this hidden gem of a restaurant that was as charming as a Parisian cafĆ©, but with a menu designed for Pink Tutu Sparkles. Yes, you heard me right! There was this lovely little, delicate salmon pink cake, with little hand-rolled meringue kisses surrounding it. (Imagine, meringue kisses - like a giant tulle swirl! chef's kiss). And a creamy soup - light pink and light as air - served with delicate little bread bites, looking like the ballet dancerās point shoes I have in my collection! They were incredible, my darlings!
I even managed to snag an old vintage photograph from a charming local antique store that seemed to be a collection of nothing but pink things: pink silk dresses, pink glassware, even pink hair curlers! Of course, itās now taking centre stage in my pink-tutu collection at home.
So, darling darlings, there you have it! Pink Tutu Sparkles conquered Morden in a symphony of pink tulle, pink smiles, and even a couple of pink cakes. Who would have thought, all thanks to a little bit of magic in the form of pink tulle! Remember, donāt be afraid to embrace your inner Pink Tutu Sparkles! Until next time, twirl hard and donāt be shy!
Keep an eye on the blog for my next adventure - and maybe youāll catch Pink Tutu Sparkles in Morden, with her salmon-pink tutu, getting all those Morden-ites twirling!
Love and sparkles, Pink Tutu Sparkles.
