With the weather warming up, I look for dresses that are a one and done type piece.  Who wants to wear unnecessary layers when you are ready to crawl out of your own skin because it’s so hot?  Instead of wearing clothing that can barely be called such, and showing too much skin, I opt for…

Ballerina Fashionista: Sunday Style

Sometime I don’t know how to start a post.  To be honest my life is really average and traditional.  I go to school, to ballet, have dinner, finish homework, and go to sleep on the weekdays.  Sometimes I have an uber exciting weekend filled with going to the library or seeing a movie!  I know. …

It snowed on Christmas Eve, and then snowed some more…and some more…and some more.  It was so magical on Christmas but the day after I was over it.  The thing about snow is, it’s cold!  Like why do I live where the air hurts my face?  And the saddest thing about winter in Idaho is…
