Ballerina Beauty

As a dancer myself, there is probably little that inspires my sense of style more than the poetic beauty of ballet. Little else can compare to the grace with which a professional ballerina soars through the air while performing a grand jeté or the ease with which she does pirouette after pirouette.
This delicate beauty and grace is often reflected in their costumes: long flowing skirts, voluminous tutus, plunging necklines and jeweled leotards.
And of course, I can say with confidence that nothing brings meaning to the phrase “pain is beauty” more than the iconic staple of any ballerina: the pointe shoes.
Needless to say, this season I’m loving delicate ballet flats, light pink, flowing chiffon and anything else that evokes a type of “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy”-meets-“The Red Shoes” type of beauty.
