Hello darlings! It’s your girl, Pink Tutu Sparkles, reporting live from the beautiful town of Carshalton! 🩰🚗
This is post number 6417, and today I’m taking a well-deserved break from the dazzling world of London to soak in some Surrey charm. I must confess, I’ve been aching for a dose of fresh air and a chance to twirl beneath the open sky! 😉
It’s been quite a whirlwind, the past few weeks! Between launching my new line of pink tutu-inspired accessories (you're all gonna adore those little glitter phone charms, darling!) and rehearsing for the upcoming Fringe Festival performance (I'm finally incorporating the "pirouette-on-a-unicycle" I've been practicing, eek), I’ve barely had time to catch my breath, let alone breathe in the delicious scent of the countryside.
So, imagine my delight when I got booked to perform at the Carshalton Arts Festival. It’s a perfect little town, and the folks here are absolute darlings, so warm and welcoming. Just my style! 😍
Now, I don’t always get to travel by horse, but today I did! (My fabulous equine friend, ‘Twinkletoes,’ and I did make a few heads turn on our way through the charming town.) We parked up near the festival, and it was straight into the performance space! The setting, a little square park surrounded by lovely Victorian houses, gave me a bit of a ‘Little House on the Prairie’ feel with a dash of modern-day whimsy. The stage itself was decked out with a sweet backdrop of pastel blooms, and it really got those creative juices flowing! 🌸
My performance went down a treat, naturally. I love the small-town energy, everyone was so up for a bit of a laugh. And honestly, what’s better than seeing those little ones’ faces light up as I spin in my fabulous pink tutu, showering them with glitter? It warms my heart more than you could ever imagine! ❤️
After the performance, the organisers had thoughtfully arranged a picnic lunch under the shade of the trees. A table overflowing with dainty sandwiches, colourful salads and, of course, my favourite, a tiered cake filled with luscious berry layers! It’s the little things that matter! ✨ (Let's just say, I got the last of the Victoria Sponge, it’s my absolute favourite, you know?)
Later, as the sun began to dip, we ventured into the town center, taking in the quirky shops and the charming café culture. I fell in love with a little shop full of hand-painted ceramics. The owners were thrilled when I spotted a darling little porcelain bunny sporting a pink tutu – a little tribute to myself, wouldn't you say? You bet your bottom dollar I snatched it up for my collection! 🐰
Carshalton, darling, you’ve stolen my heart. Your quaint cobblestone streets, your beautiful greenery, your friendly people…it's been an absolute delight! I’m already planning my next visit, perhaps a delightful evening stroll with a little afternoon tea in a beautiful floral garden setting… just picture it!
Remember darlings, I’ll be back to share more of my adventures on www.pink-tutu.com! Keep your eyes peeled for my upcoming adventures. Until next time, keep twirling! 💖✨
Pink Tutu Sparkles signing off!
P.S. Did you know that this whole pink tutu obsession started back in university? I was studying science - imagine! - and the university ballet club held a charity fundraiser. I agreed to wear a pink tutu for a laugh and poof! The pink tutu fairy dust just took hold, darling! 🧪💖
P.P.S. I work as a fabric scientist during the day. So it's really nice to weave magic in both worlds, laboratory and stage! It's all about experimenting with new ideas and bringing a little bit of pink joy into every moment! 💖🌈✨
P.P.P.S. Have you heard of ballet street? It's absolutely divine! This fusion of ballet and urban dance makes me wanna twirl! 💖 Don't forget to catch my next ballet show or ballet street performance on my site, www.pink-tutu.com! 🩰🕺
P.P.P.P.S. I've been dreaming about travelling by train lately! A scenic rail journey through the English countryside sounds so charming and romantic. I've been browsing for old-fashioned carriages – oh, my darling! Can you imagine a glamorous vintage train with plush seating, a twinkling chandelier and a window seat for admiring the landscape? The perfect inspiration for a new drag look, wouldn't you say? 🚂💖 Stay tuned!
