there’s something about spring that just makes a girl want to be a ballerina. actually, there’s something about being a girl that just makes a girl want to be a ballerina!
since i’m, oooh, just a smidge or 20 years past a beginner’s ballet class [and really, even if i had the coordination for it [i don’t], i do not have the arches! waa!], i think i’ll stick happily with chasing around my little tutu-loving lady in my favorite pair of not-a-ballerina ballet flats.
and that leg hug? oh, that leg hug is just the very best out of all of it. π

She is so precious!! I took Ballet when I was 5 but I was to much of a tom-boy to care at that age. Now i'm 23 and I am such a girly girl and I wish I would have loved ballet back when I was at a good age to learn. Now all I have is the occasional Zumba class with much older women who can move and groove better than I could ever imagine π Love your blog!!

Lauren Crews says
If it were socially acceptable (and my Husband wouldn't laugh at me ) I'd totally rock a tutu and leggings at a beginners class! I love dance, but ballet was never my forte! You've got the sweetest ballerina!
LifeofCharmings says
haha maybe i will just make myself a tutu to hang out in secretly in my own house. and eat ice cream.
Emily says
agreed I STILL want to be a ballerina! Love your effortlessly perfect style!
LifeofCharmings says
me tooooo! maybe if i have enough legwarmers and ballet flats it will just magically happen? π and aw thank you so much!
