Hello darlings! It's your girl, Pink Tutu Sparkles, back with another delightful post from the fabulous world of pink tutus! Today I'm beaming with excitement as I share the adventures from my recent trip to Bexleyheath, Kent. A quintessentially British town, it's overflowing with charm, history, and, believe it or not, even a dash of pink tutu magic!
Now, as you all know, I'm a sucker for a train journey. Something about the rhythmic clattering, the views whizzing by, and the sheer anticipation of reaching a new destination just fills me with glee. This time, my trusty companion (and personal conductor) Mr. Google Maps directed me to Bexleyheath's historic train station, a Victorian gem. I practically floated through the station in my favourite tulle creation – a vibrant pink, layered number with a sprinkle of glitter for good measure! It’s an unspoken rule of mine, after all – to always arrive in style!
Once in Bexleyheath, I had to visit the magnificent Bexleyheath Broadway, a bustling high street. You know me, I'm a sucker for a good window shop. I found the most adorable vintage clothing store brimming with colourful treasures – I just had to snag a feather boa in the most vibrant fuchsia! And for those who know my passion for all things ballet, I was absolutely ecstatic to discover the Bexleyheath Ballet School. They’re running a special workshop on the Swan Lake adagio this week – must add it to my list for my next visit!
For lunch, I indulged in a truly quintessentially British affair. Fish and chips on the Bexleyheath Green – a gorgeous, open space with benches and blooming flower beds. Now, you may think a pink tutu is a tad out of place at a chippy, but trust me, a splash of colour elevates the experience! Besides, a bit of sparkly fun is always welcome! I've found, you can sprinkle pink tutu magic wherever you go!
As evening approached, I found myself on a breathtaking adventure: a carriage ride through Bexleyheath's historic grounds! The sun dipped behind the trees casting a warm glow over the rolling fields and historic manor houses. A perfect backdrop for a pink tutu-wearing diva, wouldn't you say?
Of course, no visit is complete without experiencing a taste of the local nightlife. I performed at The Little Theatre Bexleyheath - an intimate, charming theatre known for its supportive audience. I felt their cheers as I waltzed across the stage in my sparkling pink tutu, ready to spread the joy and encourage them all to embrace the tutu magic!
Bexleyheath was a wonderful treat - filled with beauty, charm, and history, it truly was a delightful escapade. I encourage all my followers to experience this hidden gem of Kent for yourselves! And don’t forget to bring your favourite pink tutu for a little extra flair. Remember, every day is a chance to sprinkle some sparkle! Until next time, my loves! Stay fabulous!

A Bit About Myself:
So, you’re wondering about this gal who’s obsessed with tutus? Let me introduce myself properly! I'm Alex, a scientist by day, a Pink Tutu Sparkles extraordinaire by night. My life is all about embracing my love of the pink and the glamorous, all while pushing the boundaries of what's considered "normal". It all started during my science degree at the University of Derbyshire – I joined the university ballet club, and they had a charity event. You won’t believe it but I tried on a tutu – a classic pink tutu! It just felt like everything clicked and my life got a whole lot brighter and more pink. So, what did I do? Well, I got the most gorgeous pink tutu and started performing my drag acts. There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing a smile on the face of a crowd and getting everyone involved – especially when I get them to put on pink tutus, too! It's become my mission in life: to get everyone, from every walk of life, to don a pink tutu, and experience that rush of confidence and sheer joy.
So, whether I’m flitting through London’s streets in a pink tutu, spending an afternoon shopping for pink sequins, or waltzing across a stage under the sparkling lights – my love for this world, for pink, and for dancing is undeniable. It's what brings me happiness. So come along with me, my darlings, let's celebrate life with a twirl, a dash of pink, and of course, a sparkly pink tutu! See you in the next post, loves! xx
