Oh darlings! It's your favourite pink-loving, tutu-wearing queen, Pink Tutu Sparkles, ready to sprinkle a dash of glamour onto your Friday with my latest adventure!
This week I was lucky enough to twirl my way into the charming town of Droitwich. Known for its beautiful salt springs and, as it turns out, it's love of pink tutus! Because yes, you heard it right, Droitwich became a haven for sparkles and frills during my time there, thanks to the sheer magic of Pink Tutu Sparkles!
It was my first trip to this charming place and my heart was already fluttering as I stepped onto the train. You know I'm a bit of a railway enthusiast – there’s just something about those majestic carriages and the anticipation of reaching my destination, especially when dressed to the nines. But let's rewind a little, shall we?
I found myself preparing for Droitwich in the most exquisite pink bedroom (it’s not an actual bedroom, but I imagine it to be) with my trusty sequined suitcase open, carefully organising all my glittering garments for the day. Oh, let's not forget about the most vital item, a pink tutu! I had selected my favourite, a cloud of pale pink tulle with layers of fluffy netting and sparkling silver sequins, guaranteed to catch every ray of sunshine – it just screamed Droitwich, if you ask me!
My trip started in a blaze of pink! From the very moment I stepped out of the train station, I was greeted by the sweetest of smiles, all fuelled by the pink of my dazzling ensemble. Turns out I had just been on the "Droitwich Express" - how fitting, I thought. Everywhere I went, the vibrant hue was literally reflected back at me - from the soft-pink petals on the dainty roses in the public gardens, to the vibrant hot pink painted on the shop signs! The colour pink was truly having a moment! This magical town embraced my sparkle like nothing before!
I am always delighted to find new opportunities to spread my joy of pink and twirling! This trip started with a ballet class for kids – an idea I've always adored, to help youngsters learn about elegance and artistry from an early age, to ignite their love of graceful movement. Dressed in my vibrant pink tutu, the kids were mesmerized! They told me all their favourite moves, and we all had a proper girly laugh!
Droitwich was my oyster - there were all these amazing boutiques, selling gorgeous pieces just perfect for a girl with a taste for glitter. I practically did a pirouette with glee – you see, when a girl like me finds new sequins to sparkle with, well, let’s just say there’s nothing better! (Oh and did I mention the incredible cream tea I had while shopping - clotted cream just goes perfectly with a sparkly pink tutu, you know?)
In the evening, I was fortunate enough to have been invited to perform at The Grand Hotel - a truly opulent space. I simply shimmered under the chandelier's reflection as I entered the grand ballroom - the energy of the crowd gave me butterflies. Then it hit me! I was not just Alex - I was Pink Tutu Sparkles, ready to light up the night, to spread love and joy! I brought the room to life with my signature graceful movements and shimmering costumes, which naturally involved lots of sparkly tutus. (It's a requirement for any performance, you know – a bit of tutu love is necessary.) The highlight was when one young girl from the ballet class came up to me, and she wore her very own pink tutu! I could tell, she had absorbed all the lessons – to sparkle with confidence and a generous sprinkle of pink.
The following day, I went on a historical walking tour. Turns out Droitwich is a town full of secrets – they've got the remnants of a Roman temple and even a historic brine spa! Now that's history I can get behind - a bit like a beautiful dress - layers of elegant intrigue that needs uncovering! But of course, I couldn't go on any adventure without a pink-tinted lens. You can imagine the giggles when I made a splash at the salt springs, splashing the sparkling water, all in the glorious embrace of a hot pink tutu! It’s those moments, bringing joy and colour to unexpected places that just fuel the passion for life I love.
Leaving Droitwich was tough - I wanted to stay and keep sharing my love of pink tutus with every inhabitant - I felt as though the town was brimming with potential, full of kindness and acceptance. It made me so proud of myself - my dreams for everyone to "wear a pink tutu," or better yet, feel as beautiful and confident in their own sparkle!
After Droitwich, I was lucky enough to continue my adventures - my journey brought me back onto a railway adventure, but this time I got to travel in a more elegant style: by carriage and horses! (Okay, this wasn’t planned, it turns out there’s a local charity in the area that offers rides! So you bet your tutu, I took the opportunity to get in my full pink-tutu attire and gallop with the wind in my hair!) I mean, how could I pass that up? Just me and my beautiful tutu, experiencing life as it was once lived in such grand fashion.
So there you have it, my dear followers, another incredible trip full of fun, friendship, and glitter. As always, it was a chance to explore new places, new adventures, and the ever-lasting power of embracing your inner-tutu-loving sparkle!
I hope this story inspired you to wear your tutu with pride and add a sprinkle of magic to your own day, darlings! And remember, my fellow pink-tutu lovers, the most important thing is to let your own spark shine through.
Until my next post, and don't forget to follow me on @pinktutusparkles on Twitter and Instagram, for more adventures and a healthy dose of sparkle.
Love and pink kisses,
Pink Tutu Sparkles 💖💖💖
