Rehearsal Times


I love being involved in the process of a new creation.  
At the moment we are busy with rehearsals of a new ballet by our director Thomas Edur (ex English National Ballet Principal).  Though we are still in the early stages, I can already imagine it's going to be fun to dance...... there's nothing more pleasurable in dance than being able to step onto stage and enjoy yourself!!!







Obviously, have my copy of Vogue with me!!!

Sunday...



Sunday..... 
The end of a long and tiring week!!!

Backstage...



 I love photos and the idea of capturing a moment forever.  Though I do usually prefer to use better shots for my blog (these are usually the photos that go to the facebook page!) last night I only had my IPhone to hand and even if the quality isn't great,  it's caught a little insight of behind the scenes!


I feel lucky that I've had the chance to be a part of Manon.  Choreographed by Kenneth Macmillan, I think it's a piece I'll never tire of dancing.




ACT 1




ACT 2




ACT 3

Love is...



Love is something that you have that you can treasure forever and ever.  
Something that will always make you smile...

Today I realised I had worn four real loves of my wardrobe.
River Island leopard boots
My beloved sequined bag... Primark and I adore it!
A Topshop jumper that I seem to wear and wear and never tire
And Pull and Bear jeans that almost seem like they were made to measure.



I've decided my closet needs a shift around, items get lost at the back and I forget about them.  I obviously need a back door to my wardrobe!

Manon - Take 2...


Last night we performed Manon and once again I had the opportunity to dance the new role that I had taken on last week.  Here are a few photos (unfortunately only from my IPhone) of the costumes of ACT 1 (above) and ACTS 2 & 3 below.




And flowers for my performance :)


Happy Happy!!

Little Mix


From Vivienne Westwood to Primark (what a mixture) but this is my favourite thing about Brit fashion!
I do think we have an amazing high street for up to the minute pieces at affordable prices.  

I sit here pondering that it would be nice to open my wardrobe every morning to a gazillion designer pieces looking back at me. But actually, I have so much fun hunting down fashion on our high street and mixing it all up with higher end brands (and when I'm lucky the odd designer piece thrown in) that I would miss the little missions that I set myself on in River Island, Primark and Topshop etc, etc! 

 To me that's the art of fashion.  Looking at my paint palette and mixing it all up to create a 'look'. Maybe I wouldn't love it so much, had I not the thrill of the chase.






Top and Bracelet - NEW LOOK
Jeans from Portugal
Shoes - PRIMARK

What I Wore Today...


The main issue that I often have with myself over my blog CharlieHearts, is that I simply just don't have enough hours in my schedule to post everyday...... I take pride in each piece with regards to what I photograph, the quality of the pictures and the thought that goes into what I write.

Yesterday I discovered What I Wore Today, a site in which you can record your outfits daily, I was really drawn to the fact, that most users simply use their phone to take their pics and upload.... easy peasy!
  
It seems to be the answer to my problem, as initially, one of my dreams with my blog was to use it as a record of my outfits, something that I could look back on years to come (and maybe cringe at them, or maybe not!!!)

The only hitch at the moment is that for some reason I can't upload my pics on to the site :(  But as soon as I work out why I can't I'll make sure I'm camera phoning everyday!!!

Plus if anyone of you guys use WIWT, please send me the links to your profile so I can follow you :)

Skating...


It snows....
It's freezing...
The sun beams.....
The snow melts....
Night Falls.....
It freezes......
Welcome to my ice rink!!
                         OUCH!!!


I must be my own little comedy act walking to work. I either seem to walk like a pony, bending each knee up as I step and firmly planting my foot to the ground or I take the 'shuffle' approach or just to heck with it all and I basically skid and slide. The pavements are treacherous at the moment and I feel like I take my life (or more likely my profession!) into my own hands every time I step out of the door.
Those who know me well, will be well aware of my love with ice skating, but this is taking it a step (or a slide to far).  
Actually that's an idea - maybe I'll just go and invest in some ice skates and skate to work!!!

A Snippet!


Last night I danced my premiere of a new role in the ballet Manon.  You may remember my posts from when I first joined the company here as Manon was also my premiere performance with the National Ballet.

I like the challenge of a new role and the opportunity it gives you.
  To be thrown into the deep end isn't such a bad thing in times like this :)




Act 2 and 3 and the disaster area of my dressing table!




CharlieHearts with me in the dressing room!



Act One



Lots of yummy Toi Toi 'Good Luck' presents to enjoy!


I enjoyed the performance so much and went home walking on air!

By the way, I am expanding my Tweeting!! Not being such a Twitterer I am now making a concerted effort to Tweet and network........ Help me get into the phenomenon and join my official Twitter page (I'll be grateful of the encouragement!)

Baby, it's cold outside....


Yes, the snow is still here in full force, but I am adamant that my wardrobe has to change soon as I am so bored of the daily jeans, huge coat and Uggs look (which by the way are in a pretty sorry state at the moment...)

Heels, and light clothing are all but a distant memory at the moment.  All I crave for right now are the palm trees, beaches and sunny days of Lisbon!
