Same But Different: How Our Editors Bring Their Own Flair To Balletcore

Welcome to Same Same But Different. As Gen Z and Millennial fashion editors, we know a thing or two about shopping, for all ages, and especially our demographics. As we find the best products for you, we can't help but do a little shopping for ourselves and create our personal (age-appropriate) wish lists. And now we share them with you. Ahead, find out what's been in our hearts and baskets lately.

Dale Chong: While I won't go into my thoughts on "-core", balletcore is specifically a trend I can follow. Maybe it's the fact that I'm very familiar with the aesthetic, having grown up taking ballet lessons, or that it just has a timeless, universal quality to it. Either way, my eagerness to see how everyone, myself included, embraces the trend this season is definitely keeping me on my toes.

Meg Donohue: "On my toes", I see what you did there. I too am intrigued by this trend, because I don't really know what I think of it. I love skirts, bodysuits and bows. But is that really all there is to it? Maybe it's because I definitely no have a dance background, but I find balletcore... intimidating, I guess. Do you want to make your case?
