Ballerina

Doesn't every girl want to be a ballet dancer when they're four years old? I know I did, I used to prance around the house in my pink tutu loudly singing to myself. It's pretty embarrassing looking back on those years but now it seems we have the chance to make our dreams happen because one of the new spring trends is ballerina skirts. 

It's a pretty easy trend to master as you can turn it into so many styles. You can make it girly with ballet pumps and a pretty top, or more edgy with a denim jacket and boots. If you're stuck with what top to wear the skirt with then you could just go all out ballerina and wear a leotard, but I wouldn't wear a pink skirt and a pink leotard because it may end up looking like you're in fancy dress, unless the pink is a very muted one that is almost nude.  To make the look less little girly dress up, and more casual, you can tuck a simple t-shirt into a ballerina skirt, just use one in a muted colour like grey or white so as to keep the look simple.
