Hello, darlings! Welcome back to Pink Tutu World, your one-stop shop for all things twirly, sparkly, and pink! It’s Wednesday, which means it’s time for another blog post from yours truly, Emma, the ballerina who’s travelling the galaxy, spreading the gospel of tutus (and pink, of course)!
This week, I’m back on dear old Planet Earth after a whirlwind tour of a few distant nebulae. I’ve got to say, you can't beat a good old-fashioned earth ballet, even if it's not as flashy as a holographic show on Alpha Centauri! I mean, there's something special about the way the spotlights catch the sequins of a classic tutu, how the wood floor resonates with the rhythmic tapping of dancing feet, and the sheer elegance of seeing humans glide across the stage – truly a thing of beauty!
Speaking of elegance, let’s talk fashion, darlings! This trip I've been indulging my inner shopaholic on this fair planet – so much so that my intergalactic suitcase is overflowing with all sorts of delicious things! It seems like Earthlings are finally starting to cotton on to the sheer awesomeness of a proper tutu! I stumbled upon the most delightful little boutique in the heart of Derbyshire – I think they might be starting to catch on to my pink tutu evangelism! Imagine – pink tutus everywhere! It’s the future, my dears!
You’ve got to admit, even on a planet as down-to-earth as Earth, nothing beats a trip to a ballet performance to lift the spirits and send your soul soaring. The last time I was in London, I saw an absolutely incredible performance of "Giselle" at the Royal Opera House. It’s truly a masterpiece! If you haven’t seen it, you simply must! The ethereal costumes, the poignant choreography, the emotional depth – it's enough to move even the toughest of critics to tears!
Speaking of moving, my travel schedule is pretty jam-packed these days, flitting from planet to planet to share my passion for ballet. Right now, my spaceship is currently in the repair yard getting its hull polished after some turbulence through the Milky Way – but fear not, darlings, I'm already plotting my next adventure. Maybe a trip to Venus for a spot of tango or a romantic waltz on the moon? Whatever it is, I’ll be documenting it all right here on my blog. You just know it’ll be pinktastic!
Oh, and before I go, did I mention my favourite date for ballet is, of course, the 25th of November? Don’t worry – I’m not a crazy person. It just happens to be my favourite date to watch the Royal Ballet at Covent Garden. I've always been drawn to the idea of traditional performances – after all, you can’t get a good understanding of ballet history unless you spend time appreciating the roots, the classics. So if you’re on Earth this date, go grab a ticket to your favourite ballet performance.
And of course, before you head off, darlings, you know what comes next, don't you? Let’s all take a minute for our daily pink tutu chant, shall we? We’re going to say it five times to really set the tone for the week!
- Pink tutus!

I think my next adventure will be an extra pink themed. Perhaps it'll involve getting those gorgeous neon tutus that look so awesome in blacklight. I've got an idea for a whole pink-tastic cosmic disco routine I think everyone will just love. Just imagine dancing the night away on a blacklight disco ball spaceship with shimmering neon pink tutus and an endless stream of pink fizzy pop. Oh my!
Now, you run along and be sure to twirl with a happy heart, my dears! See you next week!
Here are a few tips from my trip to Planet Earth:*- *Take the time to see some iconic Earth performances. *- *Invest in some pink tutus! There's no such thing as too much pink, especially in tutus! *- *Dance the night away and keep the cosmic pink flowing!
