As we all know, Target released a Mickey Mouse summer collection a couple months back and I’m sure thousands of Disney fans raced to their closest Target. I, of course, was one of those people because I am always SO thirsty for all the cute Disney merch!😆 The one item that I absolutely needed, and prompted my last minute evening Target run, were these white Mickey Mouse sunnies! But alas, you never visit Target and leave with only one item.
The first apparel item I reached for at the store was these lightweight chambray embroidered Mickey pants. Fun and “less conventional” pants have been everywhere this past year and for good reason. I love that these pants have an elastic waist. (Hello, Jack Jack cookie num nums!🍪) And to maximize the comfort factor, these pants are more of a straight leg cut, which gives you a little extra wiggle room for running to that FastPass station.
Pants, sunglasses, and handkerchief: Target, Bag and bag strap: Cath Kidston, Shirt: H&M, Shoes: Superga
I love pairing light blue chambray with white and ivory, so I dug up an old white H&M scallop edge top and tucked it in for a defined waist. And accessorizing is a breeze when you end up buying all the coordinating accessories from the collection.😅 The white Mickey sunnies add that element of fun to an otherwise more proper-looking outfit, and the red Mickey handkerchief brings attention to my face. The Cath Kidston bag originally came with a navy strap, but for that extra punch of fun, I switched it out for the alternate red striped one. And to tie it all together, I wore my red Superga 2750 classics. (Bonus: California residents can get 10% off Superga shoes with the code “abitwong10”!)
Another clothing item from the Target collection is this rainbow “Good Times” Mickey shirt. I love that it’s a basic tee with a twist. Rather than a blank white shirt, a simple rainbow graphic brings more character to an outfit. And instead of just pairing it with my usual skinny jeans, I decided to try something more fun! These coral linen pants are colorful and breezy, but beware… linen = wrinkles galore.😩
I also picked up this girls😅 straw drawstring backpack from the Target collection. It has a frickin’ hidden mickey on it made out of pom poms. How does one not buy it? And this particular backpack carries so much stuff! Aside from my denim jacket, which I brought along for the chillier pre-summer evenings, I also fit my DSLR, water bottle, and polaroid camera — and I still had room for extra souvenirs.😆
If weather permits, I also like to wear a denim jacket because it’s a great way to “tone down” an outfit. These coral pants are definitely loud and a little different than what I’m used to wearing. So if I ever felt self-conscious, I just threw on my denim jacket. And being a jacket fiend, I just love the way it completes an outfit. But we all know that the real outfit completer are shoes. These Vans Winnie the Pooh shoes perfectly picked up colors from the rest of my outfit and it’s always fun to add a little extra whimsy to your feet!
Shirt and backpack: Target, Pants: Sears, Shoes: Vans, Jacket: Forever 21
Yes, I did pick up more stuff from the Target x Mickey Mouse collab, but I’ll spare you for now.😆 And even though we’re still a few months out from Mickey AND Minnie’s 90th Birthday, I’m so excited that Target and other big retailers are already releasing Disney Style pieces! I actually heard that Forever 21 is dropping some new fall Disney Style pieces, so….I’m going to go online shopping now.🛍🙈
