A Dancers Closet

Ok so this is about what I think every ballet student needs

BAG
A good bad should be big enough to hold all your dance stuff, a water bottle (or 2) and have a pocket to air out your pointe shoes. Some bags I have used are - drawstring bags, backpacks, messenger/shoulder strap bags and tote bags

LEOTARDS
Everyone should have a plain black, camisole leotard.
I perfer TACTEL leotards (http://www.blochworld.com/shop/c-11-leotards.aspx) many of BLOCH'S leotards are tactel.
Colored leotards are fun, but many studios have dress codes.
I recommend a good long sleeve leotard for chilly studios (though you do get very sweaty)
A flesh colored leotard for performances is a MUST. (http://www.discountdance.com/index.php) [searh undergarments]

SKIRTS
Shorter wrap skirts are good for ballet (http://www.discountdance.com/index.php)
Longer skirts are to heavy and distracting

SHOES
Ballet slippers should be fitted like a second skin
The should NOT be bought with "room to grow"
Most kids have single-sole leather
Older girls tend to like split-sole canvas shoes
Personally I like leather ones
Pointe Shoes- one-two pairs with ribbons and elastics

HAIR
Should always be in a bun
I use BUNHEADS products from (http://www.discountdance.com/index.php)

WARMUPS
I LOVE legwarmers
I think everyone needs a pair, I recomend the fuzzy ones by HARMONIE
I have never liked the wrap sweaters, but thats just me
