My Friends Are Amazing Dancers

Category: My OutfitsEyeliah

To better explain all these dancing outfits, I recently started going out once a week with my dancer girlfriends. To watch these girls burn up the floor is exhilarating, inspiring and I know I am not the only one staring.  There is nothing like cutting loose to shake the blues off and away and I am quickly becoming a regular on the circuit.  First time out (low back blouse, striped skirt) it was this crazy trip hop/pop infused night, then a swanky club (polka dots and silk skirt) with an $18 (!) cover where you’d also have to pay extra to sit down.  Last week was the best yet (pink dress and yellow sandals from this look) for R&B and a bit of 90s and then this weekend it was a live band reggae night. Now I was a bit bewildered for a couple reasons.

1. It was the first night without the pro dancers to back me up and
2. I have no clue what to wear!

Point #1, how to dance to reggae!  I thoughtto quickly check youtube before running out there door and there were actual videos that gave example of some good basic moves. Mission accomplished. :-)

Point #2, what to wear!  Since my Bob Marley tee would have been way too literal I’m saving it up for the beach instead. But my flowy embroidered skirt with a black halter?  That would suite the mood with it’s earthy tones and casual while still being pulled together vibe.  Added some easy dancing flats and I was done.  I really like this look, it’s breathable, comfortable and still ‘Friday night’ worthy.  I had such a good time dancing, I felt the essence of my dancer friends infused in me even without them being there and was able to cut loose again.

How do your friends inspire you?

Throw On What I Wanted And Go

My favorite pink dress always makes getting dressed easy.  Plus it pulled me out of my black phase for a moment.

What’s your favorite piece of clothing?

Something else I wore out dancing. This is actually my very full silk skirt but the wind was having it’s way with it changing the shape for photos.
