After a week of serious blog posts, I have that Friday Feeling again….
Celebrity posts always get a huge reaction in my blogs as clearly some people feel strongly that celebrities do not warrant any web-space, so this is my compromise. Friday is now my day for celebrity Pilates posts. #pilatescelebfriday.
I have explained before, I am not obsessed with celebrity. I have never bought Hello Magazine. What I am obsessed with is Pilates. And whilst not every one agrees with me, it’s my opinion that if someone starts Pilates because their friend, neighbour, sporting hero or favourite celebrity does Pilates, then why not? It’s our job as teachers to use that enthusiasm people have and turn it into reality.
I’ve had all the comments about glamorising Pilates, about how privileged celebrities are, about creating false hope, about living on a different planet from “real life”. Whilst I respect the opinion of everyone, it is my humble opinion that these people are missing the point of my posts and they are taking everything way to seriously in an insular way. All I am doing is raising the awareness of Pilates. Plain and simple. And if you do not or can not understand that, then I am sorry for wasting your time and please do not read my blog on a Friday! 🙂
Today I want to talk about the oh-so important topic of what to wear for a Pilates session if you are a celebrity.
For this in-depth scientific study in the human psyche, I’m using Miley Cyrus and Vanessa Hudgens, two very fine examples of Pilates addicts and two people who are not shy of the camera and some publicity. Both are regularly snapped leaving their Pilates classes in a range of attire that the celebrity websites just love to drool over and retail outlets count the benefits.
So my question today is what do you like to wear for your Pilates teaching or class? Do you have a favourite style, designer, manufacturer, colour? Even better, please post a picture of you in your favourite Pilates dress-code with the hashtag #pilatesfinery.
The days of “wear something loose-fitting” seem to be over so today let’s move with the times and get our style juices flowing!
Have a great Friday!
