#PinkTutuWorld Ballet on Planet Earth on 2014-08-06

Hello darlings! It’s Emma here, and I’m so excited to be back with you all today! Grab a cuppa, your favourite sparkly pink biscuits, and get ready for a divine tale from my latest intergalactic adventures!

It's been a whirl-wind week – from twirling through the clouds of Saturn, to catching a breathtaking show by the Nebulae Ballet Ensemble (more about them later!). But first things first, a little dose of pinkness for your Wednesday afternoon.

This week, I'm channeling the most elegant shade of fuchsia, just like the blossoming hibiscus flowers gracing the shores of Hawaii (which, as you know, is just a pitstop in the cosmic shopping mall of the Andromeda Galaxy).

Before we embark on our journey, a quick blast of tutu history for your inner dance enthusiast. While those shimmering tulle masterpieces have evolved throughout the centuries, their story is simply enchanting! Did you know the first tutus weren't those glorious, billowing clouds of fabric you see today? Nope, they were actually rather shorter, and often just came to the knee, allowing the ballerinas of the 19th century to showcase their footwork with a bit more freedom! Just imagine!

It wasn't until the Ballets Russes burst onto the scene in the early 20th century that those dramatic, sweeping, tutu gowns were fully embraced. And since then, they’ve been the pinnacle of ballerinas’ wardrobe! Every twist, every leap, and every grand jeté becomes even more magical thanks to the flow and movement of those stunning tutus!

Well, it’s not every day that I get to witness a world-class ballet performance on Earth, especially on August 6th, 2014! This day held a truly special treat, the English National Ballet’s rendition of “Giselle,” at the grand and iconic Sadler’s Wells theatre! Now, “Giselle” is a timeless ballet, with a captivating plot, heart-wrenching drama, and dancing that leaves you completely breathless! The delicate tutus of the sylphs danced across the stage, fluttering and swirling, almost like celestial butterflies caught in a whirlwind of magic!

While catching the English National Ballet, I felt that familiar wave of inspiration – the same feeling I get when I’m gliding through space in my spaceship, the same feeling I get after discovering a new boutique in a distant galaxy. I love the beauty, the power, and the utter elegance of ballet. And what better way to embody those feelings than with a pink tutu, of course!

It's no secret I love my tutus. And you know what? It's not just the tutus themselves that make ballet so beautiful. It's the spirit behind them. It’s about strength, about artistry, about pushing the limits of your imagination and your body. And let’s be honest, a touch of magic never hurts!

Speaking of magic, I absolutely cannot wait to tell you about my recent experience with the Nebulae Ballet Ensemble! But you’ll have to wait until next week for that little cosmic tale!

Until then, stay twirlingly fabulous!

P.S. *Don't forget to share your favourite ballet stories with me! I want to hear about your adventures, whether they're in the studio, in a theatre, or on another planet! Leave a comment on www.pink-tutu.com or tag me on Insta @pinktutuemma! *You never know where you might inspire me to twirl next!

As we all know, ballet doesn't exist only in grand theatres! Let’s not forget those vibrant ballet studios and those exhilarating street performances that bring the world of ballet right to our fingertips (or, in the case of those amazing space-bound ballets, right to our eyes!).

It's incredible how ballet inspires individuals, connecting us across cultures, generations, and even entire galaxies! Remember, my dearest Pink Tutu followers, we’re all connected by our love for this beautiful art form. So let's keep sharing that passion!

Now, who’s ready for a pink tutu pep talk? We may not all be intergalactic dancers like myself, but we can still spread that pink love right here on Earth! Imagine the vibrant symphony of pink twirling on our planet. Just picture it, a* whole planet bursting with colour and joy*! Wouldn’t that be an awesome sight?

We’ll tackle the universal tutu revolution one pink tulle-licious step at a time! But remember, it's not just about tutus. It’s about spreading positivity, love, and artistic expression – because those are the things that truly shine through, in whatever form they come!

Now, let's talk fashion! If there's one thing I've learned about Earth's fashion scene, it's that style is a constantly evolving force, much like those swirling galaxies in the vastness of space. And what better way to stay in tune with that cosmic energy than by embracing our own personal style?

Speaking of style, I couldn’t leave Earth without exploring the vibrant London Fashion Week, held in the very heart of the capital city. Oh, the creations I witnessed! From the bold and beautiful to the whimsically imaginative, there’s a piece of art waiting to be discovered on every corner! This fashion week, bold prints, sartorial textures, and show-stopping silhouettes graced the catwalks, proving that fashion, much like the art of ballet, has the power to evoke wonder and excitement.

This month, I’m absolutely head over heels for this fabulous statement-making piece – a vibrant magenta silk maxi dress, adorned with intricate, shimmering sequins that truly capture that galaxy-inspired brilliance. It’s the perfect way to transition from daytime chic to a glamorous evening affair, and the vibrant magenta perfectly echoes that feminine, confident spirit that embraces every facet of life with a twinkle in its eye!

And lastly, let's not forget the magic of travel! This week, I've been gliding around the Earth, taking in the sights and sounds of a vibrant London. It’s so refreshing to take in the bustling city atmosphere, with a little sprinkle of pink tutu magic, of course!

And remember, there’s so much to explore on Earth and in the vast, dazzling universe! It's about being brave, stepping out of your comfort zone, and always seeking those next big adventures!

Until next week, dear readers! Stay fabulous and always remember: the world is your dance floor.

Emma xoxo
