Helloooo, darlings! It's your girl, Pink Tutu Sparkles, ready to shimmy and sparkle straight into your hearts from the enchanting town of Airdrie! 🩰✨
Honestly, y'all, this journey to Scotland has been absolutely divine. I'm obsessed with the rolling hills, the cozy pubs, and the sheer charm of this wee town. You know me, always searching for that quintessential British quaintness, and Airdrie's got it in spades.
And the reason for my visit? Oh, you already know! I was graced with the opportunity to perform at the Airdrie Christmas Festival, and let me tell you, the energy was electric! It's just incredible to be able to bring a touch of pink tutu magic to every corner of the globe. It's like spreading a little bit of sunshine and joy, one sequined twirl at a time.
I absolutely loved seeing the kids' faces light up when they saw me sashay onto the stage in my dazzling pink tutu. The smiles were priceless, darling! It reminded me why I do what I do - to make people happy and inspire them to embrace their inner sparkle. And what better way to do that than to slip into a shimmering pink tutu and twirl away!
Speaking of tutus, this trip was extra special because I got to visit the most wonderful ballet school just outside of Airdrie. Oh, it was just perfect. All the little ballerinas, in their adorable tiny tutus, working their magic in the studio. It was like a scene from a fairytale! The teacher even let me join in on the last ten minutes of the lesson - the highlight of my whole week, I swear! It's been so long since I last twirled en pointe. I’ll have to invest in a new pair of shoes… 😉
And talking of getting my glam on, I just had to do some retail therapy in Airdrie town centre. My dear friend, the incredible Dolly DeVille (a burlesque superstar, by the way), suggested we pop into the quaint boutiques and oh, my goodness! They had the most stunning vintage outfits and accessories. It's always exciting to find gems from days gone by!
The rest of my day involved a charming picnic in the park, a bit of sketching (yes, I'm a little bit of an art aficionado, too), and some truly delicious haggis from a local butcher!
But my real passion is getting out and exploring the countryside. Thankfully, I had a fantastic time on a scenic carriage ride with the most lovely family, right here in the Airdrie region. I know, a touch of fairytale!
I’m actually thinking of learning to ride horseback. How cool would it be to arrive at a gig in a horse drawn carriage, wearing my signature pink tutu, complete with matching ribbons and embellishments on my steed’s harness! Imagine the look on the crowd’s faces! 😜
Speaking of crowds, one of my favourite things to do in any town or city is to watch local street performers. There’s just something so magical about watching talented artists showcase their talents in front of the public. I mean, isn’t that what it’s all about - the passion, the expression, the connection with the audience? And hey, maybe some of them even take inspiration from Pink Tutu Sparkles! Who knows? 😉
After a day of exploration, it was back to my cozy hotel room where I prepped for my evening show. Of course, it wouldn't be complete without a spot of jazz music playing in the background! Honestly, jazz just has that certain sophistication, perfect for winding down after a day full of exploring. And the best part? My suitcase was stuffed with new pink tutu creations ready to be put on display for the world! I might just be the luckiest girl alive… 💖
This is just one of many adventures I have planned for the coming months. If you’re lucky enough to spot a pink tutu shimmering in a crowd somewhere around the globe, chances are, it’s me, heading for another magical performance. And just maybe, I’ll be on the back of a horse…
Stay fabulous, darlings!
*P.S. *

And most importantly, keep twirling in your pink tutus, no matter what! We all deserve a bit of sparkly joy in our lives! 💖
