Hello darlings! It's your favourite Pink Tutu Sparkles, coming to you live from the charming town of Prestwich! I must say, this place is just...well, utterly fabulous. And to make things even more spectacular, guess what? It's practically dripping with pink, the most beautiful shade of pink, my darlings!
Remember how I was saying last week I had this divine idea for a post on pink tulle? Well, let me tell you, Prestwich just screamed for it. I practically tripped over a cloud of pink fabric as soon as I arrived at the train station!
My journey here was truly something special, all aboard the good old "Northern Rail," a very fitting travel mode for someone who embraces pink tutus and elegance! The train ride was filled with smiles, fellow passengers mesmerized by my magnificent pink-tutu-clad attire, and an air of genuine happiness!
A Touch of "Pink" Romance!
Upon arriving in Prestwich, a beautiful old chestnut horse-drawn carriage whisked me away to my charming guesthouse, "The Pink Rose." Let me tell you, honey, this place is a dream! Picture this: floral wallpaper in every shade of pink imaginable, a breakfast nook with pink teacups and, wait for it… my room is complete with a huge canopy bed covered in pink tulle netting! It's so perfectly dramatic! They even put pink rose petals in the bathtub – how romantic is that?
I couldn’t resist snapping a few photos to share on my Instagram. (Don’t forget to follow @PinkTutuSparkles!) Seriously, you guys, I've been travelling across the UK in my pink tutus and I can confidently say Prestwich is definitely winning the award for "Most Tutu-tastic Destination."
Adventures in a Tutu
The main attraction in Prestwich, besides its overwhelming love for the colour pink, of course, is its stunning historic architecture and vibrant arts scene. I even caught a ballet performance in the beautiful Victorian theatre, the "Prestwich Pavilion."
Let me tell you, the dancing was nothing short of spectacular. The costumes were exquisite! But, honestly, none of it could rival my pink tutu for sheer elegance and sparkle! I couldn't resist joining in on the "Ballet in the Park" session in the nearby Heaton Park – after all, there is no better time to wear a tutu than in a park bathed in glorious afternoon sunshine, right?
After a quick wardrobe change back at my room, I joined the locals for a picnic and a stroll through the Prestwich Village centre. Let me tell you, I've never felt so welcomed by a town. Every shop seemed to have something pink, and everyone had the most beautiful smiles. It felt like I was in my very own personal fairytale.
A Celebration of the Colour Pink
But what really solidified Prestwich's place in my heart is its “Pink Afternoon Tea." I don't even have words for how lovely it was! Imagine this: the cutest little tearoom overflowing with pink roses, sandwiches on pink bread, pink macarons, pink cakes, even pink tea! I practically inhaled it all. I just knew I had to wear a specific pink tutu to do it justice. You bet I brought my favourite pink fluffy tutu from my Derbyshire wardrobe. This tutu has real glitter and an impressive sparkle. Everyone just loved it.
Pink Power! The Mission Continues!
Of course, no visit to Prestwich would be complete without celebrating the amazingness of its famous "Prestwich Arts Trail". The "trail" consists of pink ribbon, dotted around town, leading you to every arts and crafts store imaginable! I even tried my hand at pink pottery painting at one shop. I decided to paint a huge pink tutu design – so chic, right?
By now, you must understand that Prestwich is quite possibly my favourite place to wear a pink tutu. They really make me feel like a star!
And guess what? I even managed to sell some pink tulle at the local "Crafts Fair" to a bunch of adorable locals who'd never tried on a tutu before! Talk about spreading the love for pink tutus! I just knew it was a calling from the universe, honey! I even helped out some budding artists who just wanted to dabble in the pink. Maybe in the future they will even use my tutorials for their arts and crafts. Maybe even help my plan to get the entire UK to embrace pink tutus!
Well, that's it for today, darlings! I must get ready for my evening show at the "Prestwich Pink Palace"! My tutu is sparkling like crazy! Remember to always chase your dreams, stay sparkly and always be yourself.
Don't forget to keep those tutus twirling! I'm going to keep pushing my quest to inspire the world with the magic of the pink tutu. The more tutus, the better, and remember, the more glitter, the better, right?
Much love,
Your Pink Tutu Sparkles!
XOXO!
