Colchester Calling! Tutu Queen Heads to Essex ๐๐
Hello my darling darlings! It's your favourite pink tutu-clad Queen, Pink Tutu Sparkles, here! Today's post marks number 9071, a whole lot of tutus and sparkly fabulousness, don't you think? ๐ And guess what, loves? I'm off on another adventure! Colchester is calling, and this tutu queen is ready to answer the call!
Packing my bags, literally bursting at the seams with enough pink and tulle to launch a thousand drag acts, I'm heading to Essex! Now, let's be real, Essex isn't exactly known for its sophisticated ballet culture. It's more Essex Girl stereotypes than ballerinas, am I right? But you know what they say - there's a pink tutu for every occasion! ๐
This trip marks a rather exciting change of pace from my usual adventures. My schedule, my darlings, has been a whirlwind of theatrical performances in quaint market towns, ballet shows in stunning grand halls, and the occasional gig at a village fete. However, this time I'm doing things a bit differently. No glitzy theatres, no traditional performances. Instead, I'm excited to be bringing a little bit of Pink Tutu Sparkles to the people of Colchester in the form of a grand, joyous, utterly unforgettable drag brunch. ๐ฅ๐
But before I get to the festivities, let's talk travel, my lovelies! I have to say, I'm absolutely besotted with train travel. You see, for me, there's something absolutely delightful about the gentle sway of the carriage, the calming rhythm of the train tracks, and the panoramic views of the British countryside that unfold before my eyes. Especially when paired with a spot of afternoon tea, with cucumber sandwiches, delectable pastries, and a cuppa that is most definitely pink - that's the life! ๐ It just adds to the theatricality of my journeys! But don't worry, dear darlings, my tutu will remain securely attached even during the most turbulent of train rides - after all, we want to ensure no unsightly tulle snags!
I'm not a huge fan of driving myself, so luckily my best pal, Poppy (the most fabulous hairdresser, let me tell you!) often drives me to my gigs, much to my immense gratitude. But, for this trip, I decided to take a spin on my favourite mode of transport: horseback! I know, you might be thinking "A horse, Alex? Why not a train?" But hear me out! Nothing says "Pink Tutu Sparkles" like a gallop across rolling countryside, with the wind whipping my pink tulle, my fabulous feather boa trailing behind like a shimmering, rainbow flag! ๐ It just brings out the free spirit in me. Of course, let's be real - it wasn't exactly the most convenient, but I'll happily face any challenge when a beautiful, fluffy, pink-tutu-worthy horse awaits. ๐๐
As we speak, I'm nestled snugly on the train, sipping on a deliciously pink raspberry and vanilla tea (which I will admit is absolutely vital to get me through any travel journey!) My big pink suitcase, affectionately dubbed 'Tulle Time', sits beside me overflowing with enough glitter and fabulousness to transform Colchester into a pink, shimmering wonderland. Oh, and did I mention the feather boa? Just you wait, my dears, you haven't seen a feather boa like this before! I assure you it's a true statement piece, a flamboyant display of pink plumage that will bring a twinkle to every eye in the entire Essex county. ๐
But back to the drag brunch! Now, my loves, imagine a grand celebration, full of vibrant energy, and overflowing with joyous laughter. Picture pink tablecloths, delectable pink cocktails, and enough glitter to dazzle the brightest of stars. All this and a stunning performance from your favourite pink tutu queen โ Pink Tutu Sparkles, of course! It's the perfect way to bring a sprinkle of magic to Colchester, right? โจ
Honestly, I can't wait to take Colchester by storm! I've already scoped out some fab pink tulle dresses that will absolutely knock your socks off, and of course, a couple of delightful feather boas in a lovely shade of flamingo pink. ๐ฆฉ The preparations, my lovelies, are a work of art!
I must admit, it's the thought of spreading a little bit of pink tutu love across Colchester that keeps me going. I want to make everyone embrace the joys of dressing up, the sheer joy of self-expression. So whether they're twirling on the dance floor or enjoying a pink pancake at my fabulous drag brunch, I aim to get everyone into a pink tutu! After all, who can resist the pure, infectious joy of a pink tulle explosion? ๐
This is a day for sparkle, my loves. Let's bring some Pink Tutu Sparkle to the streets of Essex. And to that, my dear darlings, I say - stay fabulous! ๐ โจ
Love always,
Your favourite Pink Tutu Queen ๐
