1. Why I Love Opening night at the ballet in My Beauty & Style Studio
I had a client last spring who was headed to her first opening night at the ballet.
And she was stressing over the dress code.
She walked in with a classic black slip dress and a pair of fire-engine red pumps.
And I knew instantly we were onto something magical.
That combo—the stark contrast of black and red—reads as effortlessly bold, like you’ve been doing this forever.
It’s not about being flashy; it’s about letting the shoes do the talking while the dress keeps you grounded and elegant.
