Hello darlings! It’s your favourite pink-tutu-clad queen, Pink Tutu Sparkles, back with another dazzling diary entry!
This week, my travels led me to the charming town of Pont-y-pool, and let me tell you, it was a right royal treat! I travelled in style, of course. I took a scenic train journey, admiring the rolling Welsh hills and catching up with some fellow glamorous folk, exchanging all sorts of fashion tips! Who needs a beauty sleep when you can have a beauty journey?
The moment I arrived, the vibe in Pont-y-pool was electric! I just had this feeling it was going to be a grand day for a bit of tutu magic. I even managed to snag myself a fab new pink tutu from a local vintage shop - a beautiful confection of silk and feathers that had been hidden away for years, waiting for the right queen to rediscover it. It’s going to be a total showstopper!
Of course, I’m here to spread the tutu love! The town’s streets were a blank canvas, ready for a touch of Pink Tutu Sparkles glitter! My day kicked off with a trip to the local arts centre, where I was invited to perform at their annual fundraiser. The stage lights were blazing, the crowd was lively, and the atmosphere was simply magical. My set included my usual dazzling number: a graceful ballet sequence in a fabulous sequined pink tutu with a sprinkle of show-stopping contemporary dance, because even queens like to explore different genres! The crowd went wild, and I ended up leaving a trail of pink glitter and joyful smiles in my wake.
I must admit, being a drag queen on the go can be quite a whirlwind! But with a bit of organisation and a whole lot of pink sparkle, it’s manageable. Let's just say the glamour has got to travel with me! Speaking of travel, I just couldn't resist a stop by the local horse stables - because nothing beats a good gallop through the countryside to clear your head. It’s amazing how horses love the sparkle and drama! A tutu on a horse… now there's an idea! I mean, what better way to get everyone wearing pink tutus? Maybe the next post is a horse riding photoshoot!
Now, Pont-y-pool isn’t just a town. It’s a state of mind, you know? There’s a kind of quiet charm, a sense of history and a welcoming community spirit that truly captivated me. I even had a wonderful chat with a group of local women at the park - they were all knitting colourful hats, they even offered to knit me one in pink! The next day I bought a little fabric kit and some wool, I can’t wait to see what happens to a plain knitting project with a pink tutu infused flair.
To top it off, my time in Pont-y-pool was punctuated by delicious food experiences. I tried the local Welsh cakes – sweet, crumbly, and absolutely heavenly! You haven’t lived until you’ve had a Welsh cake with a dollop of clotted cream, darling! I also discovered a local bakery with some spectacular pastries that almost put the cakes to shame - but don’t worry, it’s only nearly, not quite. The highlight of the day was a traditional Welsh tea – a hearty spread of savoury dishes, creamy desserts, and a steaming pot of tea served with freshly baked bread. I honestly thought I wouldn’t fit back in my tutu! But I didn’t want to miss a single crumb!
All in all, my adventure in Pont-y-pool was truly enchanting. It’s the perfect escape for any queen, a town with an understated elegance, steeped in tradition, yet buzzing with life. I'm already planning my return trip!
So, my dears, stay tuned for more glamorous adventures from your beloved Pink Tutu Sparkles! And remember, you don’t have to be a queen to wear a tutu! Let’s make the world a more pink, sparkly, and happy place, one tutu at a time! Until next time, darling, keep it pink and keep it sparkly!
