Pointytoes22 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Do bun pins with a diamond/jem thing on the end count as jewellery? Or any small hair accessory (eg. clip on flower)? I have auditions coming up this Friday, Wednesday and next Saturday and don't know whether to risk adding a few sparkly bun pins for a bit of good luck!

Circe Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I am so pleased you asked this as I wondered whether this is ok as at the RBS inisght day a few girls were sporting sparkly clips and I've been tempted ever since to get one for my DD!

Circe Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Sorry, should have said, all the best of luck with your auditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belljul Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hi pointytoes22. Good luck with your auditions. I guess it depends what you are auditioning for but my opinion is to avoid the sparkle, especially if the auditions are for ballet schools. Jewellery is not allowed at the schools as far as I know and usually states on the audition forms 'no jewellery'. Best to keep it clean and simple and show off your dancing. Best of luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balletgirlsplease Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) A girl at one of the RBS insight days i went to with my dd wore striped socks and had her hair in a ponytail!! I wouldn't encourage my dd to wear any slides unless they were grips of her hair colour for an audition. It usually suggests a plain bun. Could you hide it in the bun if it is for luck!? And best of luck!! Edited January 9, 2013 by eloise_please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belljul Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Meant to say that yes, I think sparkly bun pins would count as jewellery. Just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieW Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Personally I don't think you should for auditions - fine for workshops or rehearsals but that's it in my book ;-) I'm sure they wouldn't hold it against you but why risk it.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pointytoes22 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 I think I'll take one with me and see if other auditionees have them, if not then I won't risk it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hfbrew Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 The plainer the better, let your beauty shine through your dancing. That said you could allow yourself one very discreet lucky one in your bun! Absolutely no to sparkly hair clips though!! If you are auditioning for senior school though it doesn't hurt to have a liitle, again discreet, make up so as to demonstrate an ability to present oneself beautifully. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxi4ballet Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 On the Lower School letter it says no make-up at the audition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pointytoes22 Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Thats interesting upper school doesn't mention it, I guess they must know that a lot of 15/16 year olds wear make up! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
