Leotard Style 182

Leotard Style: Arnold's New Hot Spot for Dancewear Hey all you dance and gym lovers, This week’s blog is dedicated to leotard style in our beautiful town of Arnold. As a lifelong ballet dancer and former competitive gymnast, leotard fashion has always been my passion. Whether you're a ballerina, a gymnast, a dancer or a gym bunny, there’s something special about rocking a stylish leotard. Arnold’s Fashion Forward Leotard scene: You guys already know that the leotard has become more than just gym wear. It has taken the world of fashion by storm! If you're after the perfect leotard and you're in Arnold, then listen up! I've been on the hunt for the best stores and brands to keep you looking your best at the barre, the gym or on the streets. I found everything from vintage-inspired classics to funky neon-coloured creations. So ditch the leggings and let your leotard do the talking! Stores that Rock: * Dancesport: Let's start with the big hitters, like DanceSport in the centre of Arnold. If you're looking for high-quality, well-made dancewear, DanceSport has it all. From simple classic leotards to those stunning embellished ones, DanceSport is definitely the place to go for a leotard that can take you from the studio to the stage in a heartbeat. * Sportaholics: Sportaholics on Main Street is your one-stop shop for all things gym, fitness and yes, you guessed it - leotards too! They carry a wide range of brands from leading brands like Nike and Adidas, so you’ll definitely find a leotard that will fit you to perfection and match your killer training style! * Boutique Barn: Want to explore some fabulous indie designers? Then head to Boutique Barn on High Street. Boutique Barn is one of my favourite haunts. They have this fantastic selection of vintage-inspired leotards and modern designs that are really unique and fashion-forward. Trust me; if you're looking for a leotard that will make you stand out, this is the place! * The Gym Store: The Gym Store might not seem like an obvious destination for leotards, but this place really knows its stuff! They have a fantastic collection of basic leotards at fantastic prices. Perfect for casual training days or if you're on a tight budget. New Season Looks: Let’s talk new season styles. For spring/summer 2023, think vibrant colours like sunflower yellow, fuchsia pink and electric blue. * Sporty Styles: Remember that sporty style look? I love it. The key is in finding leotards with functional detailing like mesh panels for breathability. Mesh and colour pops look especially fantastic against a simple, classic black leotard. Think geometric patterns or racing stripe detail! * Feminine Florals: If you are a girly girl, think florals for this spring. Leotards with delicate floral patterns are so pretty and romantic, and they really give off that elegant ballerina vibe! Look for dainty little blooms on the shoulders or back for a subtle pop of femininity. * Long Leotard Love: I am also feeling the love for long leotards! Long leotards can work perfectly on or off the dance floor. Choose one in a silky, lightweight fabric, pair it with trainers for a chic sports luxe look. * A touch of mesh: Speaking of fabrics. Mesh is a trend you will want to experiment with this year! Mesh leotards are just fabulous! A mesh panel on the back, shoulders or even the sleeves makes for a sleek, edgy design! * The All-In-One Trend: We are also seeing the rise of all-in-one leotards, where the skirt is already attached to the leotard. These can be absolutely divine and make those transitions between barre work and the final choreographies much more elegant. Get Ready to Spark! As we wrap up this blog post on the state of leotard fashion in Arnold, remember to stay bold! Be adventurous, and don't be afraid to experiment! Whether you're going for a classic ballerina vibe or a more street style vibe, there is a leotard for every girl, and if you can't find it then look to some of those amazing dance shops I've talked about to find exactly what you’re looking for. As I always say, remember that your leotard can be a statement piece. Keep checking in with my blog, and I’ll keep you up-to-date on all the new and hot dance and gym fashion. **Until next time!** #leotardstyle #leotardfashion
