Starting this Wednesday, The Boston Ballet will take up residence in the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center, performing two mixed programs over the course of five days. Among the dancers giving New Yorkers a taste of the Beantown’s finest moves is 21 year-old soloist Whitney Jensen, who will appear in William Forstythe’s “The Second Detail,” Alexander Ekman’s “Cacti,” and Jorma Elo’s “Plan to B.” Here the Park City, UT native, who joined the company when she was just 17, shares some of her favorite things.

Define your style in three words: Crisp, clean, and evolving.

Daily uniform: Skinny jeans, All Saints boots and a button-down shirt.

Greatest hits: Pink pea coat from Club Monaco, pink leather bomber jacket by Ermanno Scervino, white jeans by Michael Kors, black and white fur vest from Marc Jacobs.

Preferred footwear: All Saints ankle boots and Nikes.

Finishing touches: Any of my Michael Kors watches, gold rings and bracelets and bags by Michael Kors, Badgley Mischka, Rebecca Minkoff, and Marc Jacobs.

Nighttime look: Black skinnies, usually a fresh white top, and some heels.

Best recent discovery: I was just on tour with Boston Ballet in Washington DC and I went to the Newseum with my mom, where they had an Anchorman exhibit. Anyone who knows me knows of my intense obsession with that movie. I died and went to heaven!

Style Pet peeve: Back bra bulge.

Style icons: Brigitte Bardot, Blake Lively, Gwen Stefani and my mom, Lausanne Jensen (look her up, she is one of a kind!).

Last purchase: A movie ticket to Maleficent.

Lusting after: Valentino and Christian Louboutin heels.

Favorite haunts: Tatte, Thinking Cup, and Cinquecento in Boston; Cafe Fiorello in New York.

Next vacation: Home to Park City, Utah, after many gigs all over the world this summer!

Summer must-haves: A fresh mani-pedi, good tan, and great sunglasses.
