Happy Galentine’s Day & (early) Valentine’s Day!💖 Instead of dressing to the nines this year, I decided to put together a couple outfits built around fun graphic tees. I love outfits built around easy shirts because…
1. Most people already have an all-time favorite sitting in their closet, so it’s easy to recreate these looks!
2. You can either dress it up for a more polished look or go make plans for an all-day at-home movie marathon. No judgements here.😉
3. Graphic tee outfits are super easy to throw together. And with Valentine’s Day sneaking up on me this year, I gladly welcomed any uncomplicated, yet fun outfits.
Play heart to get on Valentine’s Day!❤️ This vintage Minnie tee is comfy and so perfect for a polished, but casual Valentine’s Day look. To play off the hearts on the shirt and pull the whole look together, I wore a heart patterned velvet blazer. The velvet and embroidered hearts add texture and whimsy to an otherwise straightforward “t-shirt and jeans” outfit.
To complete this look, I found the perfect heart accessories. And to no one’s surprise they’re all Disney accessories.😂 To find the right mix that worked together, I kept color palette and scale in mind. I knew red, white, black, and light beige accessories would coordinate well with my vintage Minnie shirt and choosing only one larger scale statement accessory with other smaller accessories helps keep everything from looking too overwhelming. Because you are the star of the show, not your clothes — even if they are droolworthy.😜
Shirt (gifted): Cakeworthy, Shorts (similar): Amazon, Scrunchie (similar): Amazon, Necklace: Stella and Haas
In honor or Galentine’s Day, I had to wear this amazing Bridesmaids shirt from Cakeworthy! Because ladies, I just don’t think we can do any better. It’s a Fritz Beenaise afterall!😆
I usually buy graphic tees that are slightly loose on me so I can get that perfect fitted slouch when I tuck them into pants and skirts (exhibit A shown above👆🏼). But for this shirt, I decided to go up a few sizes so I can comfortably lounge on the couch all day bingeing Bridesmaids and other gal pal movies! I paired it with fitted pink shorts (which is actually a bodysuit onsie!) for a playful loungewear feel. And for a little glam, I topped it off with a matching sparkly scrunchie.💖
I hope you like these easy and more casual Galentine’s Day and Valentine’s Day looks! I used to get caught up thinking all my lookbooks had to showcase extravagant ensembles and be a huge production. And honestly, it requires so much more energy I would probably stress about it more than I should’ve.😅 But I’ve finally come to realize that even my more casual looks are still worthy of documenting. Just because it’s not fancy, doesn’t mean it’s not worthy! Reminding myself of that is one small way I’m showing myself some self-love and grace.🥰
Are you celebrating Galentine’s Day or Valentine’s Day this year? Or maybe you’re going to shower yourself with some self-love. Either way, I hope you’re weekend is filled with snacks and rest.😆

Happy National Polka Dot Day! And say hello to the first #citydisneystyle post!🙌🏼 If you follow me on 
Tip 1: Choose interesting basics to pair with your dots.

Tip 3: Tuck it in!
Today’s the day we’ve all been waiting for! It’s Mickey’s 90th birthday! And you can bet I’m not just celebrating today. I definitely celebrated alllll year long by buying into the many Mickey True Original collections that released throughout the year. 
A few months back, Disney Style asked me to share how I liked to 
This is also why I loved all the Mickey True Original collections so much. Each collection retained the brand’s DNA. Forever 21’s collection was fun and spunky, Opening Ceremony was unconventional and funky, Rag & Bone was ultra cool. Each brand that released a collaboration took Mickey as inspiration, but made the collection unapologetically their own. And it inspires me to approach personal style in the same way.
So to take a page out of Mickey’s playbook, I KNEW I had to make this Disney Style Canadian tuxedo my own. Obviously, I wanted everything from all the collections, but I knew I absolutely needed these Levi’s Mickey decal jeans and matching sherpa jacket for a few reasons. It’s probably obvious by now that I’m a sucker for denim and an adorable classic Mickey. But Levi’s was and still remains an integral part of San Francisco’s heritage. The company was born and raised in San Francisco! Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?😏
But as a third generation San Franciscan and with Levi’s significant ties to SF, I obviously had to pair this denim set with a San Francisco, City by the Bay graphic tee. The simple, yet strong font pairs nicely with the classic Mickey decals. Laid back round sunglasses and practical, yet polished flats finish off this outfit and lend that perfect touch of city ease and California cool. And of course, I added a little extra flair with a pin from the Disney Store’s new Mouseketeer collection!
So here’s to you, Mickey! Thank you for 90 years of laughter and magic! You look good for your age, but I reckon it’s because you’re young at heart. Just another life lesson that you’ve taught millions of people, including myself. I can’t wait to see the countless number of amazing people you’ll inspire for another 90 years to come! And of course, I know you’ll do that with your own unique flair. 😉
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: 
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.😆

It’s the last day of the year and instead of making a list of practical resolutions, like how I should save more money, I’m instead reminiscing on the all the ways I wanted to spend my money this past year – aka my five favorite 2017 Disney collaborations! There were so many great Disney collaborations that debuted this year, but I’ll mostly be focusing on apparel collabs because there’s no better way to show your Disney pride than to have it plastered all over your body. 😬
Aaahhhhhhhhh! Where to even begin?! For many Disney fans, Pixar Studios is a supplemental, but oh so necessary part of the Disney company and experience. It’s like adding avocado to your BLT. Pixar just makes Disney THAT. MUCH. BETTER. Omg, Pixar is an avocado. No wonder everyone loves it!😆 So when I got the chance to visit the Pixar campus with some friends, I was ecstatic.
We visited on a Sunday, which was actually really nice because it was completely empty and quiet. We could take a million photos with no one in the background! 🤗 An added bonus was the warm weather! If you ever visited or lived in the Bay Area during the summer, then you know that warm days during the “summer” months are like Pixar easter eggs — you only get them once in a while.😉 Cloudless skies meant I could wear a blue dress for my Guido
