I began ballet at the age of 5 and my fate was sealed-I adore black, pink, tulle, and ruffles. Here are some great ideas for incorporating the "ballet" into your wardrobe and home.
- Slipcover a side chair in pink or black silk organza. Or drape and wrap a chair in silk organza and tie with a silk bow.
- Do a room in pink and black.
- Paint the inside of your closet pink.
- Homage to Diana Vreeland-tie a black tulle bow around your wrist-or waist or neck or head!
- Paint a room pink. Read the article in the January 2009 House Beautiful where designers pick their favorite pink paint colors.
- Use pink and black ghost chairs in your dining room.

12. Men secretly love pink-Miles Redd's
living room.
13. Create cheap but dramatic curtains by swagging a long length of tulle in 1 or 2 colors around your windows, letting it puddle on the floor. No need to hem-cut with pinking shears.

14. Look for vintage tulle wedding dresses or prom dresses on eBay, thrift stores, or vintage stores. Remove the top and pair with you favorite t-shirt.
15. Wrap a gift in tulle or tie it with a tulle bow.
