Helloooo, my darlings! Pink Tutu Sparkles here, reporting live from the bonny, bonny Highlands! Well, actually, Rutherglen. But let's be honest, any place you can spot a bonnie wee castle is a bit magical, right?
Now, before you start thinking "Tutu Queen, Rutherglen? What in the world is going on?", let me give you the lowdown. As you all know, my motto is: "If you can get there by train or on a trusty steed, a pink tutu must follow." And let me tell you, the train journey to Rutherglen was a sight to behold! It's like the train rolled straight out of a Jane Austen novel, all rolling green hills and fluffy white sheep. And what does Pink Tutu Sparkles do in a scenery like that? *SQUEEEE! * Pulls out her fanciest pink tutu, naturally, the one with all the fluffy feather boas and sequins!
Fashion Statement
This trip, I was going for a Highland Chic look, my dears. Think tweed, but with a dash of pink. We're talking a gorgeous blush pink beret perched on my curls (a big nod to the tartan vibes) and my signature pink tutu, but this time with a little something special - a sheer, floral skirt layer! You know me, always pushing the boundaries!
And the locals? They absolutely LOVED it! Apparently, there's this little local theatre that holds an annual "Dress up as a Fairy" night, and guess who popped up, spreading sparkle like a disco ball? Your girl, Pink Tutu Sparkles!
From the Lab to the Stage
Speaking of dazzling, let's rewind a bit, shall we? You might be thinking, "Wait, Alex, scientist? Performing in a pink tutu?" Well, you see, my dears, life is all about embracing the extraordinary. During the day, I'm analyzing fabrics in a lab (yes, science can be fabulous, too!) And come night, well, you all know my story - Pink Tutu Sparkles comes to life, shining bright and bringing joy.
Now, I might not have a "day" job exactly, more like a day passion. This little scientist chick here is on a mission to get the whole world wearing pink tutus! Because let's be honest, a touch of pink and a twirl never hurt anyone!
The Majesty of the Highlands
But back to Rutherglen! The locals are as warm and friendly as a crackling fire. They took me to a beautiful, old-fashioned pub (with the most adorable little checkered tables) and taught me how to do the "Highland Fling". You'd be surprised how much shimmying fits into a pink tutu!
Oh, and did I mention the food? They serve the most scrumptious scones with clotted cream, my dears! Pink Tutu Sparkles may have come to the Highlands to share a little magic, but my tastebuds fell in love, too!
Dancing Queen, Every Day
Honestly, I spent the whole weekend dancing in the streets! The Highlands have got this magical quality, my dears. It’s a vibe that just makes you want to let loose and twirl, and believe me, I twirled like I never twirled before. I’m convinced I must have given some locals lessons on proper tutu twirling just by strutting around town, and all I can say is - never let your inner dance queen stay tucked away.
So here's the moral of the story, my dears: No matter where life takes you, whether it's to the depths of a lab or the peak of a Highland hill, there's always room for a little Pink Tutu Sparkles!
Until next time, stay sparkly, and remember... Pink tutus for everyone!
Love always,
Pink Tutu Sparkles.
