If We Took A Holiday…
Madonna says, “if we took a holiday, just some time to celebrate, just one day out of life, (it would be so) it would be so nice!”
Even one of the most talented dancers and performers of our time takes a moment to celebrate during the holiday season. There are so many ways to celebrate one another and togetherness in general. You can send a thoughtful note, text, get coffee or dinner, attend a holiday dance or simply enjoy your time together. It’s important to take some time to celebrate.
We no longer stuff our carts to the brim with gifts on Black Friday, waiting eagerly for stores doors to open right at midnight, scrambling for the best deals on flashy items. These days, people have reverted back to simpler times where meaningful gifts take the spotlight. A lot of “stuff” collects dust, but carefully chosen elegance and items which align with our day to day activities are appreciated deeply.
The dancers in your life need specific things to perfect their craft. It’s that simple.
Jewelry
Jewelry is a classic gift for your dancer. Ballroom jewelry is a great example of self-expression. A thoughtful necklace, bracelet, or ring can showcase the way you have truly gotten to know your dancer. Plus, ballroom jewelry is much better than our grandmothers’ “costume” jewelry, in my opinion. Ballroom jewelry doesn’t have prongs or hooks on the stones that can get caught on anything. It won’t snag on your clothes, dancewear, or holiday outfits. Furthermore, ballroom jewelry is less expensive than diamonds. Don’t be fooled, though; they have just as much shine as the real deal— if not more!
Gift Certificates
Gift certificates are always a good option. Instead of giving someone another Starbucks card that will sit in her purse, give her a Dress 4 Dance gift certificate. Your dancer will love the flexibility to order their own shoes, jewelry, or start a custom design!

Tip Of The Holiday…
When you purchase your gift certificate or jewelry, try wrapping it with one of our specialty silk pillowcases. SilktoCotton Designs pillowcases come in chic, gender neutral turquoise boxes, appealing to an array of tastes. As a unique bonus, you can put your gift certificate or jewelry inside the box, creating an adventure for the gift recipient. I highly recommend the top-quality OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified Mulberry Silk. Our pillowcases also feature a no-snag hidden zipper, which is not commonly found on other commercial products.
