Hello my gorgeous darlings, and welcome back to Pink-Tutu.com! Your favourite tutu-clad, pink-obsessed drag queen is back, and today's post is bubbling with excitement. You know I absolutely love a good train journey, and I have to say, this one to Ruislip was right up my alley! I was absolutely beaming on my way, humming along to "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" - and yes, that does include me sporting my trusty pink tutu, of course! 😉
Before we delve into the fabulous happenings of today, let's talk about the reason for my Ruislip escapade! As a dedicated ballerina at heart, I couldn't miss the chance to see a performance of "Swan Lake" at the local theatre. And guess what? It was absolutely stunning! I was mesmerized by the ballerinas' graceful movements, the breathtaking choreography, and the majestic music. The entire performance was a testament to the sheer talent and dedication that goes into making ballet magic come alive.
But hold on! It wouldn't be a true Pink Tutu Sparkles adventure without a sprinkle of my signature flair, now would it? Before heading to the theatre, I decided to pay a visit to the Ruislip Craft Market. You know I adore browsing for unique trinkets and treasures, especially when it comes to dazzling costume jewellery and shimmering hair accessories. And let me tell you, this market did not disappoint! I snagged a magnificent feather boa in the most vibrant shade of pink imaginable (because who doesn't need a little extra sparkle?), and a set of bejeweled headbands perfect for adding a touch of glamour to any outfit.
With my bag brimming with delights, I then indulged in the most scrumptious afternoon tea. (And no, it wasn't served on the floor like in those whimsical "Alice in Wonderland" illustrations. 😉). Scones, dainty sandwiches, and a selection of delicious teas – pure heaven! I have to admit, I also couldn't resist sneaking a peek at the bakery just next door. And let's just say my sweet tooth had a field day with a gorgeous strawberry-and-cream cupcake! (I might just have even popped another pink tutu in there just for good measure… I mean, is there ever such a thing as too much pink? The answer, my dear darlings, is a resounding NO!)
Finally, the time came to make my way to the theatre. I must say, the journey itself was quite enchanting. Ruislip is such a charming town with quaint houses and well-kept gardens. I even managed to sneak in a quick stroll through the picturesque Ruislip Manor Park. With a little sunshine dappling through the trees and a light breeze playing with my pink tutu's ribbons, it was the perfect setting for a whimsical photo-op.
