Hello, darlings! Emma here, fresh from a whirlwind trip to the magical city of Vienna! As you know, my passion for pink tutus knows no bounds, and Vienna, with its rich history and enchanting waltz, was simply the perfect destination for a Tutu-loving traveller like myself.
A Journey Through Time and Tutus
My adventure began in Derbyshire, where I bid farewell to my beloved countryside and hopped aboard a charming train to Dover. The carriage was a delightful symphony of floral patterns and lace curtains, a perfect prelude to the journey ahead. A sea voyage awaited me, where I imagined myself as a delicate porcelain doll adrift on a giant bathtub, en route to my ultimate destination - a fairytale of waltzing and wonder.
The Waltz of Fashion in Vienna
Vienna, my dears, is a haven for any fashion enthusiast. The streets are a kaleidoscope of elegant boutiques showcasing exquisite creations from world-renowned designers. From delicate lace frocks to luxurious furs, I was a giddy girl in a candy store! Of course, I couldn't resist picking up a few treasures for my wardrobe. A delicate, floral-printed tea dress with a voluminous tulle skirt, oh, it's absolutely divine!
Tutu Tales from the Vienna Opera House
My absolute highlight was visiting the majestic Vienna State Opera House. Oh, my heart nearly burst with excitement! I had been dreaming of seeing this architectural masterpiece ever since I learned about the fascinating history of ballet in Vienna. The opera house itself is a wonder to behold, and the atmosphere inside was pure magic. I couldn't resist sneaking a peak backstage, and you know what I found? An exquisite collection of tutus from previous productions. My mind reeled with visions of graceful ballerinas pirouetting on stage.
The Perfect Vienna Itinerary
Now, darling, I know you're all eager to know my itinerary for a delightful trip to Vienna, so here's my suggestion for the perfect Pink Tutu adventure:
- Day 1: Arrive in Vienna and immerse yourself in the city's beautiful architecture. Take a stroll along the Ringstrasse, the city's grand boulevard. And don't forget to admire the grand buildings, especially the Vienna State Opera House!
- Day 2: Get a taste of Viennese culture at the Hofburg Palace. Explore the palace's many museums, including the Imperial Apartments and the Treasury. Afterwards, head to the Kunsthistorisches Museum, home to masterpieces from the Habsburg dynasty.
- Day 3: Step back in time at the Schönbrunn Palace. Wander through its gardens and explore the palace's grand interiors, including the Hall of Mirrors. For the true tutu enthusiast, there are fabulous dance classes in Vienna!

The Pink Tutu Mission Continues!
Throughout my travels, I always keep my mission in mind: spreading the joy of the pink tutu! And let me tell you, darling, Viennese ladies are nothing if not fashionable. Even while sipping coffee at a traditional coffee house, they had their tutus hidden in their stylish handbags, ready for an impromptu waltz.
I left Vienna with my heart full of waltz tunes and a renewed sense of love for the pink tutu. As you can see, a little pink never hurt anyone!
Next week, join me as I take you to my new home in Prague! It’s full of magic and excitement…and perhaps a new Pink Tutu friend or two! Stay tuned, my dears. Until next Wednesday!
