To the Pointe

As someone who has danced their whole life and ripped more pale pink tights than I'd like to admit (I've never been the graceful type). I LOVE J. Crew's use of Russian ballerinas in their latest catalog to model their cashmere sweaters. 
Ballerina style has always appealed to me; these looks are inspired by my favorite pieces; black leotards, tulle skirts, and lace up shoes. Top knot bun not required, but would look incredibly cute with these styles.

  9. I love ballerina style too (especially when it includes feathers) - I was incredibly inspired when I saw Black Swan. Great post!

  11. I love your interpretation of the catalog! I've danced since I was little, so the dainty cream/pink/black palette totally appeals to me, too. :)
