Well, my friends, summer is finally upon us! It’s time to bust out your bright colors, floral patterns, and your favorite swim apparel. If you’re like me and will still be taking those online summer classes and working throughout this break period, have no fear! There’s still plenty of time for friends, road trips, and looking fabulous while doing it all.
This week, I grabbed my best friend and drove from our home in the Bay Area down to Anaheim for some Disney fun to kick off the summer!
As avid Disneyland-goers, we were prepared for the warm weather, sweet treats, and magical attractions. Both of us packed some of our favorite floral-print tops and a comfy pair of overalls to wear as we ventured through the park.
One of my favorite additions to any outfit at the Disneyland Parks is Disney’s signature pins! Pins come in many shapes and sizes of different characters, attractions, and items from the movies or theme parks. Whether you wear them on a cute lanyard or on your favorite piece of clothing, these pins are a great way to display a few of your favorite things!
Around our wrists, my BFF and I each wore a bracelet that represented an important piece of who we are and what we love. My friend sported her #ShineForShane bracelet as she beautifully memorialized the sudden loss of her wonderful cousin. On my wrist, I wore an engraved silver bangle given to me by a mentor at the end of my senior year of high school. I also decided to wear my floral choker, my favorite watch, and my Disney-themed Alex and Ani bangles! Adding accessories can be a great and fun way to accent your outfit, while also being a creative outlet to express who you are! My floral scrunchie is another great accent, but I really have it so that I can put my hair up on high-speed rides in order to prevent tangles! (#ProTip)
When you’re in the Disney Parks, it’s so important to embrace all of the magic that they have to offer! This, my fashionable friends, includes the unique and delectable food items they offer throughout the park. Our favorite treat is a Mickey-shaped raspberry macaron filled with fresh raspberries. I’m drooling just thinking about it! Not only do they taste amazing, but they make for an adorable photo companion!
Cute clothes, fun accessories, and yummy food is certainly vital for an amazing time at the Disney Parks; however, I believe there’s only one accessory that’s essential for your entire summer… Your BFF and that goofy smile they put on your face! Because whether you’re in your hometown, out in the city, relaxing on the beach, or at your favorite theme park, a best friend by your side will complement every look perfectly! Don’t forget: When necessary (always), have a dance party!
