Coalville Calling: Tutu Queen on Tour!

Post Number 7922

Helloooo darlings! Pink Tutu Sparkles here, your fabulous, fuchsia-loving friend, and this little ol' blog is buzzing with excitement because...drumroll please...I'm in Coalville!

That's right, your girl Pink Tutu has finally made it to this lovely little town. It's a proper fairy-tale trip this time, folks. Forget the usual sequins and sparkle, today I'm riding in style on the most magnificent steed, a beautiful, gleaming black horse, with a flowing mane the colour of my favourite pink - hot pink! Talk about feeling like a princess!

Now, let me tell you, getting to Coalville wasn't all glamour. This gal loves to travel by train. I mean, there's something about the rhythmic clack of the wheels and the countryside scenery whizzing by. But for this jaunt, the good people of Coalville decided to treat me like royalty and sent me a special carriage – on horseback, of course! A proper regal affair! It was quite a spectacle. Picture a vision of loveliness in a hot pink tutu, sparkling from head to toe, perched atop this gorgeous, shiny steed. We were the talk of the town! The locals even had the kettle on by the time we arrived.

Now, this visit isn't just about exploring the delights of Coalville, though, I must admit, it's a pretty lovely little spot. But it's also about what we're doing to shake up the local scene, spreading the Pink Tutu love, and making the world a brighter place, one tutus at a time.

So, before I delve into the details of this epic adventure, let me back up a little. As some of you long-time followers know, I've been in the Pink Tutu game for a while now. It started with a simple tutu for charity, and I was just a budding scientist studying in Derbyshire at the time. Next thing I knew, I was the president of the university's ballet club and, frankly, a little obsessed. The tutus. Oh, the tutus! They felt so empowering, so sparkly, so outrageously fabulous. From that day on, Pink Tutu Sparkles was born.

And that's how I'm living this glamorous, tutu-infused dream! By day I'm your average lab technician, putting fabrics through the most rigorous tests you can imagine. Then, come evening, it's time to don the Pink Tutu and take the world by storm! There's just something so liberating about wearing a big, puffy tutu and showcasing a colourful personality. My act isn't just a show, it's a call to embrace your own inner fabulousness, whatever that might look like!

Oh, and did I mention my most recent conquest? This girl's got a new tutu that's practically screaming "Look at me!" - it's covered in a shimmery constellation of glittering stars. Absolutely perfect for a trip to Coalville, don't you think? You can bet it was causing quite the commotion when I took a little twirl in the town square! The kids loved it. The adults? Well, let's just say some had to be convinced! I even had a chat with some local ballerinas – let's just say it was inspiring!

Speaking of which, today I'm off to explore Coalville's cultural scene. I hear they have some amazing theatres and even a ballet school. It wouldn't be Pink Tutu Sparkles without a little performance, so keep your eyes peeled! There might even be a street dance or two... in tutus, of course! You can follow my journey on Instagram and Facebook, where I'll be updating you with photos and stories from this adventure.

Now, enough about me, I want to know: are you all embracing your inner pink tutu queen? Don't forget to share your tutu moments with me – send your photos and stories to @pinktutu.com – and join the movement to make the world a pinker, sparklier, more fabulous place. Let's get everyone twirling in pink tutus! Until next time, darlings, keep shining!

Your fabulous, fuchsia friend,

Pink Tutu Sparkles


Here's a breakdown of some other adventures that Pink Tutu Sparkles could be planning for Coalville and other areas in a similar blog style:

Day One: A Fairytale Tour of Coalville

Helloooo my fabulous friends! Today I'm exploring Coalville's historic treasures in style, of course! My day started with a delightful picnic in a fairytale-esque meadow. I know it sounds clichΓ© but this meadow was straight out of a storybook, full of lush grass and delicate wildflowers! I couldn't resist doing a few spins and twirls – in my new pink, polka dot tutu, naturally!

From there, I trotted into the charming town square. And darling, what a sight! Cobblestones, adorable shops, and a truly majestic old building with a clock tower! It practically shouted β€œPink Tutu Sparkles, welcome home!”. I've never felt so inspired to paint the town pink... or fuchsia at least!

Now, my darlings, you know this girl can't resist a good market. So, naturally, I found myself gazing at beautiful crafts, smelling the delicious local treats and chatting with the locals. It’s a true testament to the heartwarming charm of Coalville, it's a town bursting with talent, hospitality, and creativity. Oh, and I have to share, I discovered the most exquisite floral crown, adorned with gorgeous, shimmering butterflies. It was practically made for Pink Tutu Sparkles!

In the afternoon, I spent some time at the lovely Coalville Museum, learning all about the fascinating history of the region, with a special emphasis on its artistic and theatrical heritage – something I feel very connected to! It was truly delightful to see how creativity has been woven through the very fabric of this place.

But don't you worry, my adventures didn't stop there! To cap off the day, I found myself whisked away to the majestic grounds of the Coalville Hall for a delicious afternoon tea. Picture this: a delicious array of sandwiches, fluffy scones, freshly baked cakes, and the finest selection of teas served amidst stunning, historic decor. It felt like something out of a classic novel, except with a dash of Pink Tutu sparkle!

The best part? They were absolutely charmed to see Pink Tutu Sparkles grace their establishment! The afternoon was a blur of twirling tutus, a chorus of excited children, and a warm embrace of good old fashioned British hospitality. Now that's a fairytale ending, if I do say so myself.


Day Two: Ballet-ing Through Coalville

Darlings, brace yourselves! Because this next chapter in my Coalville journey is one you won't want to miss.

This fabulous morning started with an early class at the enchanting Coalville Ballet School. It was absolutely brilliant – think graceful moves, flowing tutus, and a room full of joyful little dancers! We even attempted a few of the famous routines from the Swan Lake! I have to say, there's something truly magical about sharing the passion for ballet with such a passionate group. You might just see a little Pink Tutu Sparkles teaching a few of these amazing youngsters one day!

After that beautiful session, I was in the mood for some serious shopping. You see, darlings, there's a saying amongst the fabulous folks in my world: "Never miss an opportunity for a little retail therapy!". Well, let me tell you, the charming shops in Coalville are a little slice of heaven for the discerning shopper. There was an amazing independent vintage clothing shop filled with shimmering gowns and hats – you know I snagged a new feather boa and a fab hat that I just couldn’t resist! I've even been planning my next glamorous outfit already – it will definitely involve the new feather boa and, you guessed it, a pink tutu!

Later, we indulged in a decadent dinner at one of the lovely local restaurants, featuring fresh local produce and an ambience fit for a Pink Tutu Sparkles!

But here’s the real kicker – after that gorgeous dinner, we had the opportunity to see a fantastic amateur dramatic society's production at the beautiful local theatre! And darlings, they were amazing! Their energy and talent had the entire audience mesmerised – you know I was glued to the front row with my pink Tutu sparkling! The cast had so much heart, and every movement was beautifully choreographed, reminiscent of some of my favourite professional ballet productions. And you know me, this girl is always in awe of such passionate performance – it reminded me why I do what I do!

It’s been a a truly magical day in Coalville. What started as a whirlwind of a journey has already captured a little bit of this lovely town's spirit, and it's a spirit I can't help but be drawn to. Stay tuned, because I have even more adventures planned. The fun never ends for Pink Tutu Sparkles!


Day Three: Coalville Carnival

Hellooooo you beauties! It's time to talk about Coalville's spectacular carnival!

If you think pink tutus are bright, then brace yourselves! I found myself amidst a truly amazing scene with people of all ages – dressed in vibrant costumes – filled with such incredible energy and joy. This was a day when even the sun had on a technicolour outfit, reflecting its beams off my own, glistening pink tutu.

Now, I am always looking for ways to bring my fabulousness to the world – so when I heard about this annual event, I just knew I had to participate. We even got a beautiful pink, vintage style car that matched my tutu perfectly! The locals really got into the spirit, and the atmosphere was incredible. Everyone was twirling and dancing, celebrating the beauty and unity of this incredible community.

One thing I love about carnivals – they are all about having fun, unleashing your inner child and indulging in all sorts of sweet treats! I had a lovely conversation with one of the cake stall holders who told me all about his favourite flavours and how much he enjoyed participating in this amazing community event!

The real highlight, of course, was the grand procession! This colourful display of local talent was a symphony of energy and creativity. There was such an overwhelming sense of excitement and celebration. Everyone was a participant. There were incredible costumes, the music was electrifying – and a whole sea of faces beaming with delight.

This journey through Coalville has definitely been one for the books, my darlings. It's been filled with new discoveries, inspiring performances, and heart-warming encounters. I even had a few people ask to take selfies with me – always happy to oblige!

So as I set off on a new adventure – perhaps somewhere even more fabulous, you know that I will keep on spreading the pink tutu gospel wherever I go!

Keep sparkling,

Your glamorous, fuchsia friend,

Pink Tutu Sparkles
