Broadway

I made my first Polyvore outfit set when I was 16. I was about to go to New York and the set was what I imagined myself wearing to a broadway show. Looking back the outfit is a bit embarrassing, but it's fun to see how much my style has evolved as I've gotten older.

I've seen a bunch of Broadway shows (Beauty & the Beast, Lion King, Wicked, Little Mermaid, Phantom of the Opera, West Side Story) and loved them all. Going to a show is probably #1 on my list of favorite activities on Earth. As a dancer I have a special place in my heart for performance and the theatre.

I haven't been to a show since my last trip to Manhattan in 2009, but that all changes tonight because my amazing boyfriend Brandon got us tickets (my birthday present!) to see The Lion King in Atlanta! The last time I saw the show I was 13 so I'm beyond excited to see it again, and to see him experience it for the first time!

As you can see, the show is so aesthetically rich and a treat for the eyes as well as the ears. The costuming is gorgeous and inspired me to create an outfit with the same colorful, bold, exotic vibe!

What's your absolute favorite Broadway show? I may be going back to the city this summer and would love your recommendations! xoxo
