Discover the spellbinding magic of Swan Lake in this musical retelling of the ballet - push the button on each beautiful scene to hear the vivid sound of an orchestra playing from Tchaikovsky's score.This tale of a prince, a beautiful swan princess and an evil sorcerer begins in a woodland clearing far, far away. It is Prince Siegfried's 21st birthday. He is playing games with his friends when his mother, the Queen, arrives to tell him he needs to stop having fun and start looking after the kingdom. Prince Siegfried dreams of running away.
He follows an enchanting flock of swans to a clearing by a lake, where four of the little cygnets begin to dance. The most beautiful swan transforms into the Princess Odette, who tells him that she has been cursed to turn into a swan by day and return to her natural form at night by the evil sorcerer Von Rothbart. As the prince and Odette dance, they begin to fall in love.
The story follows Prince Siegfried as he attends his birthday party, is tricked into proposing to Von Rothbart's daughter Odile and returns to the lake to battle the evil sorcerer. Will the prince be reunited with his swan princess?

At the back of the book, find a short biography of the composer, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, with details about his composition of Swan Lake.

Fit and Length
Size: X-Large, Color: (401) Royal / / White
Yeah this fits perfectly. Very soft, the color pops, keeps you warm. I use these under my sweatshirts, cable sweaters, and my flannel shirts. For me it's about the arm length and how well the item contours to the body to help with warmth. Thank you for getting this right.

Worth it.
Size: Small, Color: Black (001)/White
Living in North Dakota, staying warm is invaluable. UnderArmour Cold Gear is the only base layer the provides warmth, KEEPS warmth, and protects from the unforgiving wind. Every winter I go on the hunt for thermals, layering options and I always find others to be saggy or incredibly tight, either way, once I begin shoveling or snowblowering, and sweating, other products become soaked, sticking to skin, unbreathable and quickly your sweat stuck to your body under layers in now creating a cold,chill, freeze to your body, and on a -10F day, it can become a dangerous situation.
I honestly was hesitant to purchase UnderArmour, I felt it was too hyped up or paying for a name. BUT IT IS NOT. UnderArmour isn't a name, it is a company that has made the highest quality base layer, warmth, breathable and it really wicks sweat away; I may not know how it does it, but it works!
For sizing, I ordered a small in the women's longsleeve/turtleneck black coldgear. I'm 5ft and roughly 110lbs. I like the fit, it is meant to fit your body. I probably could wear an extra small, but I like the sleeve length in the small and it fits very well.
Stay warm folks!

Great cold gear
Size: Large, Color: White (100)/Black
Warm, very comfortable. I wear these all winter. The neck can be a little tight and the cut is definitely fitting. Its got thin like fleece on the inside that keeps you warm.

Tight but stays in place, comfy and keeps you warm
Size: Medium, Color: Charcoal Light Heather (019)/Black
I liked this shirt because it keeps me warm when I'm outside even at negative temperatures, I can work out comfortably in it and the sweat dries out soon; also, the interior of the shirt is made of a very comfortable material.
I don't like that this is very tight, cool if you want to use it under your usual sports clothes but if you want to use it as is I would suggest going up a size.
I use this shirt almost every day to work out during winter time, I've washed them several times and they still feel as comfortable as the first day.
