Helloooo my darlings! 💖 It's Wednesday again, and you know what that means - another fabulous blog post from yours truly, Emma, your pink-tutu-loving, galaxy-trotting, ballerina blogger extraordinaire! It’s just me, back on Planet Earth after a whirlwind trip around the cosmos.
Did you know? 🪐 It's 15th August 2012! And, guess what, my dears? That's the very date that I landed in the heart of New York City! 🍎 What did I do? Well, naturally, I saw a show - a ballet show, of course! It was Cinderella at the Metropolitan Opera, and oh my, you wouldn't believe the costumes! A riot of colour, sparkles, and – you guessed it – Tutus! Talk about glamorous, and absolutely picture-perfect for my little Pink Tutu World.
A Trip to the Big Apple 🍎
This trip wasn’t all about seeing Cinderella though! I got to do all the New York things - I shopped on Fifth Avenue, sipped on pink cocktails at the Plaza Hotel, and even took a spin on the Staten Island Ferry.
But my main mission was to immerse myself in New York's ballet scene, and darling, let me tell you, it didn't disappoint! It’s truly a hotbed of dance history. Imagine - chances are, there was already ballet here when those first European colonists were arriving! It’s been a big influencer on the world of tutus - the style, the designs, even how we wear them.
A Brief History of Ballet 🩰
Of course, ballet isn't all about costumes and tutus. It’s about movement, expression, and telling a story through the dance. For me, it's also about the history – how far it has come and what has shaped the modern form of the dance. I can’t go anywhere without visiting a historical ballet company, or a ballet archive! I love learning about the amazing ballerinas and choreographers who’ve paved the way for dancers like me today.
What About My Space Adventures? 🌌
You know I love those too! I recently returned from a cosmic sojourn on the gas giant, Jupiter. You won’t believe it – I did a ballet routine on Jupiter's Great Red Spot. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting! You wouldn't believe the swirl and movement, all thanks to Jupiter's incredible atmosphere. The red storm felt so wild and intense - a far cry from the controlled elegance of a dance studio. But, darling, it made for an unforgettable ballet performance! The energy of the gas swirling around me, felt powerful and dynamic – all so invigorating.
Pink Tutu World: The Pinkest Blog In The Universe 💫
As I sit here in Derbyshire, writing this post, I'm dreaming of my next ballet-filled escapade! I have a new space shuttle I can't wait to try out. I’m picturing a quick trip to the planet Venus for an early dawn performance! I have a feeling the orangey-yellow sky would look stunning on a pink tutu. Wouldn’t you just adore the pictures?
I love that pink tutus have this power - they make me feel so strong, so empowered, so fabulous. I believe they can empower anyone - and who knows, perhaps one day, everyone will be wearing a pink tutu in every corner of the universe. 💫
That's all for now, my darlings. Catch you all next Wednesday with another extra pink post on www.pink-tutu.com.
Until then, twirl your way through life. It’s a dance - embrace every moment!
Love, Emma x x x
