Hello darling dears,
It's Wednesday again, and you know what that means - it's time for another instalment of Pink Tutu World! Today I'm back from another whirl-wind intergalactic adventure, and let me tell you, it's been a corker!
My journey started on Planet Glimmer, a celestial disco ball where everyone sparkles, literally. They dance in rainbow tutus under disco lights that bathe the whole planet in a joyful kaleidoscope. My favourite tutu shop there was "The Sequined Swan" - think neon pinks, galactic purples, and shimmering silver fabric. I walked out with not one, but three new tutus. I mean, you can't have enough tutus, can you? 😉
Now, you know I love travelling by spaceship, right? This time, we took the Cosmic Carousel, the most glamorous spaceship in the universe. Think plush velvet seating, a live orchestra playing Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake in the lounge, and a dazzling mirrored dance floor. Did I mention the champagne bar? It’s hard to not live your best life with such lavish surroundings!
Ballet on Planet Earth: The Nutcracker
I was back on Earth just in time for Christmas, and that means one thing - The Nutcracker! I’m a bit obsessed with The Nutcracker, to be honest. I mean, it’s just a magical, festive masterpiece. My favourite performance this year was at the Royal Opera House in London.
We all know the story, don’t we? The young Clara who is gifted with a magical nutcracker and taken to a land of sweets and magical toys. My personal favourite scene is the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, which this year was danced by the beautiful and talented Miss Isabelle Beaumont, her performance was exquisite. I must have watched that scene at least ten times - even bought a sparkly, candy cane tutu inspired by it!
After the performance, it was straight to the Royal Opera House shop! (You know I just can’t resist!) This time, I picked up a darling Nutcracker keychain for my purse, a pink silk scarf with a motif of snowflakes and tutus (perfect for winter!), and a coffee mug with a sweet picture of the Sugar Plum Fairy!
Speaking of pink, I was in my favourite pink tutu – a new design I picked up on the last tour of the planet – you know me, I always have a new tutu to add to the collection! And my glitter heels added some extra shimmer! I did get quite a few envious stares – which I love, to be honest! You know I want all those Earthlings embracing their own unique inner sparkle, too.
Sharing the Love of Ballet on Planet Earth
I made sure I went to a couple of ballet shows that week. There was a fantastic “Swan Lake” at the London Palladium, followed by a modern dance show by the English National Ballet, which was full of raw emotion and energy. You see, I try to appreciate all forms of dance, not just classical ballet. Ballet is an art, a universal language, that spans continents, species, even planets! I want to see every creature on this planet get lost in the beautiful stories, emotions, and graceful movements.
Christmas Shopping: Festive Fashion
The streets were filled with Christmas cheer and twinkling lights, and of course, I indulged in some Christmas shopping! You know me - always on the lookout for the most fabulous fashion finds!
- Sequinned Christmas sweaters: Because what is a festive look without a little sparkle? This year, I snagged a gorgeous pink sweater with a sequined gingerbread man. You see, it’s all about the pink! 😉
- Christmas stocking in a pink silk satin bag - Now that’s Christmas shopping with some Pink Tutu World flair. I have one for myself, and I gifted one to each of my nieces.
- Glittering gold handbag: You can never have too many handbags! This gold beauty was just the perfect addition to my Christmas outfits and looked stunning paired with a black silk tutu with gold sequins.
And now, darling dears, as Christmas approaches, I can't help but get caught up in the spirit of joy and good cheer. And to share this joyous season with you, I’ve added a few more “Pink Tutu World” gifts to my website - you’ll find gorgeous sequined pink scarves and festive reindeer earrings. Because it's all about spreading a little Pink Tutu World cheer, don't you agree?
Stay safe, darling dears, and until next Wednesday, remember to live your life in the pink.
