Bag- Jack Wills
The bag I use is the Jack Wills Haberton Bookbag because its a good size and I probably take too much stuff to dance really so I need to be able to fit it all in!
Firstly in my bag I have my (very worn) Roch Valley pink ballet shoes which I have had for so long but they were from my local dance shop! They are really comfortable and when you've had them a few weeks they start to mold to your feet so they don't start coming off when you dance and they don't make you conscious of them while your dancing because lets face it there's already so much to think about in ballet without your shoes feeling like they're falling off! I also have my Bloch tap shoes which are from Dance Direct and I love them! Again they're really comfortable because they rent too high and they allow you to make strong taps when they feel comfortable. The taps are also really sturdy and don't come loose so I think that is something that is really important when finding tap shoes.
Obviously we have to stay hydrated so I do sometimes use energy drinks and I probably will be more in September when Ill be dancing for 3 and a half hours on a Friday! But I always usually keep a couple of Robinsons Fruit Shoot Hydro Blackcurrants in my bag.
I also keep 2 body sprays. The first is Adidas Woman in the scent Fruity Rhythm. I really like Adidas perfumed deos but I think this one is probably my favourite. The second is just a Morrisons one called Delight that I got once when I really needed one but it isn't my favourite. It is a fresh smell though so its okay just to spray a quick little bit one if needed.
Three things I have loose in the bottom of my bag are a hairlines hair brush that I'm not sure where I got it from, and 2 packets of tissues. There isn't much to say about these things other than they are just things that are kind of essential in any kind of bag I think.
Next I have 2 dance accessories I guess?! First I have an IDTA (dance exam board) Theatre Dance Terminology Vocabulary Book. This just has all of the words that you need to know for exams up to Grade 6. That comes in really handy and I think that everyone who does IDTA exams would find this really useful. The second thing is a Capezio Bunheads Medium Weight Exercise Band. This is used for feet strengthening as pointe preperation and can be used for flexibility too. It is basically just a long piece of rubber but it is really good!
I like to keep this Ted Baker makeup brush bag in my bag with a few bits in. First just some hair grips, bun grips, hair elastics and hair bobbles. Then a hair clip, nail file, lip balm and hand gel. Just a few things that I think are really useful to have.
Just in the top of my bag I keep a cropped dance t-shirt which is by the brand Pure Simple Sport at JDs. It is cropped but I wear it over my leotard so I dont know if it would be any good on its own because it is also off the shoulder but I do really like it. I also keep my Capezio Foot Thongs in there too but I dont have a picture of those!
And that's it! More back to school posts are too come but I did just want to do something abit different! Now im off to read the book for English that Iv had 10 weeks to read but naturally brought 2 days before we go back to school! Iv made a great start to sixth form!
