Hello lovelies!
Itās Emma here, back from another cosmic adventure! This week's Pink Tutu World blog is a bit extra special, as we're talking ballet on Planet Earth. You heard that right, our very own little blue ball. It's all very glamorous - well, as glamorous as Planet Earth gets!
Today's blog is brought to you live fromā¦ drumrollā¦ Derbyshire, England. For you intergalactic newbie followers who may be asking āwhat on earthāā¦ Derbyshire is an incredibly green and lush area, famous for its beautiful countryside. However, its also home to some seriously cool ballet schools, which makes it perfect for this weekās adventure! I got to say the scenery, the people, and the atmosphere, were amazing!
I'll be honing my pointe technique and dazzling in a series of amazing tutus throughout my stay here, but the highlight is, without a doubt, attending one of Derbyshire's famous ballet schools to witness a delightful ballet performance. What an absolutely fantastic performance it was!
As you all know, my love of pink tutus, ballet, and all things fabulous is legendary. So when the chance to travel to Earth came along, I immediately envisioned a trip packed with tutu-inspired moments. After all, Earth is home to some of the most beautiful and celebrated ballet schools in the galaxy, right?
For this trip I have to thank my lovely fans and followers, who, after attending a fantastic intergalactic ballet show on my home planet of Uranus, showered me with so many gifts. That, combined with the fact that my tutu-themed performances always draw the biggest crowd, has enabled me to fund a planet-hopping tour this year.
*Now for a bit of Ballet history, Planet Earth Style: *
Did you know Planet Earth's first ballet school opened in London in 1727. It was called, quite fabulously, the āAcademy of Dancing.ā How perfectly adorable, wouldn't you say? Since then, Planet Earth's love affair with ballet has only deepened. Over the years, the academy went on to inspire some amazing ballet institutions. I actually got to see some amazing photos of these, courtesy of some fab locals here. Some were really vintage! Some dated back to the Victorian era - how gorgeously fashionable! I'm talking elaborate gowns, stunning tutus, and all things elegant and graceful, with beautiful Victorian homes serving as beautiful backgrounds, Oh how wonderful to think back to that golden age of Earth's ballet history.
Now, letās go on to my fabulous shopping spree! Iāve gotta admit that I found some fabulous tutu options, perfect for my journey home, and I got them at an amazing discount. Talk about scoring! Of course, being me, I had to wear them, and took pics of each outfit in front of one of Planet Earth's famous buildings - the Houses of Parliament! (Don't worry - I had my permission from the local earth-folk - they were surprisingly friendly!)
Speaking of outfits, I decided on a vibrant fuchsia tutu for my Earthling debut. It was simply perfect - and I had it specially tailored with the most wonderful pink satin bows. As a finishing touch I added some glittering stars for extra sparkle. You simply cannot resist a touch of sparkle, my dears, itās part of my trademark fashion signature.
I made the most beautiful Instagram video to accompany this blog. If you want a real close up of this delightful pink outfit, check out my profile on instagram (thatās instagram.com/pinktutues, darling! But before I forget, remember, all tutu pics need to feature a few tutu twists and turns for my little followers to appreciate how gracefully my tutus drape. I do a little ballerina pirouette, of course, but in a very playful way - no one wants to look serious when you are having so much fun in a sparkly, whimsical, and super-stylish, pink tutu!
Back To My Journey, Darling...
While my visit to the ballet school was truly delightful, there was much to see on Earth - including lots of really amazing dancers and some super chic boutiques where I discovered the perfect tutus and outfits. Oh, and the restaurants? Delicious!
You simply have to experience some of Earthās gorgeous parks, like Richmond Park in London. There's a lovely green expanse, and while it doesnāt look like it, it is packed with fascinating flora and fauna. I found myself drawn to the lovely, colourful flowers - and I couldnāt resist picking a few for a very special floral arrangement in my room. The flowers are, in a word, sensational!
Of course, Earth is not only all ballet, beautiful green spaces and amazing floral arrangements. It is also home to a massive metropolis called London. You really do have to experience London. Itās just so wonderfully lively, with some seriously amazing people and some truly delightful cafes, pubs and markets - and, my absolute favourite, lots of very cute and creative gift shops. They make you want to grab it all!
Now for another big secret - the secret to my success lies in embracing my signature, whimsical style! When people see my tutus - especially those dazzling pinks - they just canāt help but smile, laugh, and let their imaginations take them on a joyous and colourful journey, as I dance and tumble across different planets in search of new and fantastic tutus. So when I do those spectacular leaps across the Milky Way or twist around the cosmos, everyone simply goes crazy.
So I just want to say, from Emma at Pink Tutu World - get into it! Donāt be shy - wear a tutu - embrace the whimsy and sparkle. Life's all about creating your own style and spreading your unique flare around the universe, which is why I am making it my lifeās mission to help you do it. And we can start with some divine pink tutus, ladies - that is why weāre here!
Stay sparkly! Stay whimsical! And remember to always take your dreams to new, cosmic levels. I'll be back with you on Planet Earth, and on the website, next Wednesday - bye for now, you beautiful, tutu-tastic lovelies.
