Oh darlings, you wouldn’t believe the adventures I’ve had this week! It all began with a gloriously sunny morning in Derbyshire, where my little heart was overflowing with excitement for my Plymouth trip. It’s been a while since I’ve donned my Pink Tutu Sparkles attire and graced a stage so far from home. As always, travelling is an experience in itself. This time, I chose the train, the clackety-clack of the tracks so calming, the views from the window such a delicious tapestry of English countryside.
Don’t get me wrong, a jaunt on a majestic horse is divine – especially if you're a Pink Tutu Sparkles. It feels like you're gliding through a ballet performance set, doesn’t it? But for long distances, I find the train lets me catch up on reading – nothing beats a good paperback to accompany a journey through a dreamy ballet world!
Of course, a Pink Tutu Sparkles doesn't simply board a train with anything less than a fashion statement! I chose a pale pink, silky blouse that matched the vibrant hue of my travel-sized pink tutu (because every pink tutu Sparkles needs a companion, no matter how far she goes!). And because no Pink Tutu Sparkles look is complete without a statement piece, I had on my most dramatic pair of pink ballet flats – glitter, darling, glitter! Even the gentleman in the seat next to me seemed mesmerized!
When we arrived in Plymouth, the vibrant seaside city embraced me like an old friend. You know, even as I become more well-known (and have to say, I do love being known as the Queen of the Pink Tutu!), the best part is meeting you fabulous souls, sharing a smile, a dance, and a twinkle in our eyes. That, darlings, is truly the heart of what I do.
Now, Plymouth itself has been an absolute dream! The cobbled streets leading down to the waterfront are practically designed for a pink tutu. Think about it – every cobblestone is a stage! You should see me gliding across them! You’d think I was part of a real life ballet! And let me tell you, a few enthusiastic children even started doing pirouettes and arabesques next to me – you'd think they were attending my impromptu tutu-fied ballet class! I might even write a letter to the local council urging them to adopt “Pink Tutu Sparkles Day” once a month, wouldn't that be a dream! Just picture it! A day of joy, tutus, and colour – everyone dancing!
Speaking of colour, darling! The most divine collection of shops. We’re talking designer boutiques for a true Pink Tutu Sparkles’ treat! And let me tell you, the selection of pink tutus? Absolutely magnificent! I snagged myself a brand new sparkly pink tutu, and I might just be tempted to buy another! Because, frankly, a girl can never have enough tutus!
Oh, and the local market? It was simply enchanting! You have to see the craftsmanship! They have a fantastic market where they display crafts, cakes and pastries, as well as some absolutely amazing flowers. You see, darling, a Pink Tutu Sparkles can’t just eat a biscuit. No, it must be a pink flower adorned with sparkles!
Of course, the highlight of my trip was my performance. My show was at The Mayflower, a historical landmark! Such a glamorous setting! I had the entire place bathed in pink – pink lighting, pink balloons, even pink confetti raining down! And of course, a full-on pink tutu ensemble, feathers and sequins flowing. It felt like the audience was caught up in a whirlwind of joyful sparkle, a symphony of laughter and delight! I could practically hear angels singing! It really was the perfect mix of dramatic theatrical, a sprinkling of dance and lots and lots of pink tutu fun. The applause, oh my, it was music to my ears!
Afterwards, we had the most scrumptious meal at one of the local eateries. Oh, my dear, don’t even get me started on the delightful seafood. It was as delicate and charming as a ballerina dancing on pointe – absolutely beautiful! A truly lovely meal and so perfectly paired with my vintage glass of pink Champagne.
You know, being a Pink Tutu Sparkles is truly a gift. Not just a way to express my love for tutus, sparkle, and performing, but it's also an adventure! You’ll never know what’s around the corner, or what colour tutu will magically appear. I find myself meeting people who inspire me, places that light up my world, and opportunities that open my mind and heart to new possibilities. And every day, I'm on a mission – to bring the joy and wonder of tutus to the world. After all, why be anything less than pink, glittery, and utterly delightful?
This week in Plymouth truly embodies the Pink Tutu Sparkles philosophy. There’s a bit of a Pink Tutu Sparkles inside each and every one of you, darling, and it’s my job to help it shine. Until next time, be sure to always embrace your inner tutu queen!
Love,
Pink Tutu Sparkles
