Hey there, darlings! It's Emma here, back with another post from my Pink Tutu World blog. As you know, this Wednesday's theme is all about my adventures in the vast universe, where my pink tutus have taken me. I'm all about sharing my passion for dance, fashion, and the wonders of space! Let's dive right in, shall we?
It’s Wednesday morning in Derbyshire, England (a lovely place, but just a tad on the green side for my pink loving taste). As the sun peeks through the blinds, casting those first morning rays of gold across my bedroom floor, it hits my most special pair of pink tutus (you know, the one with the diamanté detail? The one I had custom-made to go with my galaxy-print leotard?). You know, a girl needs a good dose of inspiration every morning!
Intergalactic Adventures & Pink Tutus: A Match Made in Space!
Before I share the highlights of my latest intergalactic escapades, let's take a quick detour to my trusty old blog to refresh your memories. This blog is where you can find me on my planet earth travels, all about dance shows, and my ever-expanding wardrobe of the most glorious pink tutus. (Remember my last blog post? Where I spoke about getting a new set of glittery pointe shoes and, by accident, picking up three more tutu's just 'cause! What can I say? It’s called passion.
For you non-space-travelers (still trying to work out why, when there's this whole, fab universe to explore, people still don't jump on a spaceship and get on with it - like, why!), I'll break it down a bit. My trusty ship, affectionately named ‘Pink Panther’ (you should see it, baby pink with pink leopard print detail! The epitome of intergalactic chic), has taken me to galaxies near and far. I've had the joy of meeting galactic royalty, exploring alien planets, and even (get this!) I landed a solo spot in the grand intergalactic ballet competition in the Andromeda Galaxy! Talk about dreams coming true. And all this wearing my fabulous pink tutus, of course!
Speaking of my recent trip, the latest adventure has just concluded – and boy oh boy, it's an adventure I will never forget. The 2027 Galactic Fashion Week show was nothing short of spectacular! Just think, planet Earth's fashion week pales in comparison. The grand event, you see, is held on the star system called Soliton, a truly gorgeous and, dare I say it, utterly glamorous, space-station haven of fashion delights and dazzling runway looks! And the best part? The entire show was focused on, wait for it, PINK TUTUS! The entire theme for this fashion week? Tutus! What luck, I’m here for it, so to speak. The galaxy had finally woken up to the magic of tutus, and they were ready to embrace them. And believe me, everyone rocked a pink tutu – from the galactic influencers to the space-age designers, even the celebrity robot, Sir Sparkletron. Even the fashion designers embraced pink tutus in the runway designs, mixing textures and materials like star dust, moon-glow crystals, and nebula-patterned fabrics - just brilliant!
I just had to be there, of course. Pink tutus, fabulous dancing – my dream come true, and a great platform to tell my story – to get every creature in the universe into a pink tutu.
What I Learned on My Planet Earth Travels
Being away from my Derbyshire home and traversing the cosmos in my Pink Panther gives me a newfound perspective on our little planet Earth and its, dare I say it, slightly dull ballet traditions. It made me realise what truly makes my tutu heart beat faster, what I love most.
Planet Earth: A Fashion Hub in the Making?
Now, let’s talk about some of my fashion muses back on good old planet Earth. If you think space fashion is exciting, wait till you see Earth’s vibrant and evolving style scene! From the glamorous haute couture catwalks of Paris to the edgy, forward-thinking looks emerging in Tokyo and New York, our planet’s fashion houses are creating incredible art with fabric. I truly love being a part of this world of creativity!
There are some truly awesome things happening here, darling! I've even got my eye on a few collaborations, secret collaborations that are hush hush! Can’t talk about them, I'll just say… pink tutus will soon be making their big comeback in the most iconic places in fashion, from couture shows in London to high-street trends. Just wait for it… and then maybe we’ll get Earth embracing those tutus, too. A gal can dream!
The ballet world of planet earth is where my journey started and still holds a special place in my heart. I remember attending my very first ballet class at the tender age of 4. It was, in a word, love. Everything about it. The grace, the beauty, the power it radiated from every fibre of my being – It truly resonated with my spirit. Those early classes ignited a spark that has never dimmed. I'm a true ballerina at heart, with a real passion for the graceful, strong beauty of this beautiful art form. It’s where I started, so naturally I adore going to ballet shows, all about that exquisite form and movement. The way the music brings the ballet to life - absolutely captivating. Every year, I always get myself the most beautiful tickets to a special ballet.
But, like any self-respecting Pink Tutu wearer, my favourite kind of ballet performance is one I get to create. You know, where I get to express my passion, create new moves, and have fun while being all twirly and graceful on stage? Those performances are what give me the strength to chase after my ultimate goal. To get everyone on earth and beyond rocking a pink tutu, just like I do.
My favourite local haunt back home is Derbyshire’s amazing Derbyshire Dance Studios! You might say they are a “bit dated”, and the walls are “slightly shabby chic”, but they are one of my most favourite places! It’s filled with heart. And there’s something wonderfully charming about it. My Derbyshire local, you might say, where it all started.
Now, the year is 2027. A fantastic year for fashion! There are loads of fashion events, ballet shows and dance happenings that I must attend. And let's be honest, how can a pink tutu-loving fashionista like me even think of missing a ballet show or fashion week. The world's full of exciting opportunities to indulge in my passion. On 2027-04-07 (that’s today!), the Royal Opera House is hosting a special ballet performance I'm not going to lie, I’m already packing my fabulous pink tutu for the occasion! The show is inspired by, you guessed it, Space!. How can a pink-tutu loving fashionista who lives for the ultimate expression of grace and beauty like myself, possibly miss it! It’s an absolute must see.
What else is going on this week? There are just loads of great shows – check them out if you’re looking for inspiration! There's an event on tonight - Tututopia. A festival in London that celebrates all things dance, everything from street style dancing to ballets to theatre. It's gonna be awesome and a chance to learn about the whole story of the tutu from classical and traditional ballet to its more contemporary adaptations. It's going to be a full-on dance bonanza – loads of street performers, music, food stalls, and dance performances - I just know it's going to be a great time for pink tutus! This Friday night at the Queen's Hall, there’s the latest performance from the British Ballet Theatre. This is going to be a fabulous way to spend Friday night and get my weekly dance fix!
But even on Planet Earth, there's plenty of excitement to be had! From fashion shows and street performances to ballet events, the earthbound fashionistas of London, Paris, and even my own home town of Derby, are bursting with energy and ideas. It's all very exciting!

Don't let your life be all drab grey, like a typical Wednesday on Planet Earth, let’s spice things up a bit.

Let’s create the future, a world of tutus.
And now, if you’ll excuse me, darlings. There’s a fabulous pink tutu sale on a space station nearby that’s beckoning my name, I'll be right back, just one sec, gotta go…
