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.😆

With the holidays upon us, so to are the numerous dressy parties and gatherings. And adding a touch of Disney flair to your dressier outfits is a piece of cake with a Disney bag!👜 It’s just another way to bring Disney magic out of the parks and I love how it adds that unexpected touch of magic.✨
Tip 1: Find a bag that can be carried as a tophandle or clutch! These kinds of bags tend to be dressier than a backpack, fannypack, or crossbody since they don’t obstruct your beautiful outfit that you worked so hard to put together! Conversly, if you feel like your outfit looks too fancy and needs a little edge, try adding a more casual bag!
Tip 2: Try to veer away from bags that use more casual materials, such as canvas, and go for something that looks a little luxe, like faux leather or faux fur! Hard case bags, like this Pixar tophandle ball, also tend to look dressier because it has structure. And nice, quality hardware also help elevate the overall look of the bag.
Tip 3: A more “basic” Disney bag can easily pair with fun prints! Because let’s face it, you probably have some fun prints in your closet and it can be hard to find that bag pairing. I always have difficulty mixing prints and patterns, so my default is to carry a solid bag! Preferably in black.🖤😆
But what to wear that would simultaneously compliment, but not compete with the gloriousness of the jacket? 🤔 With 
For pants and shoes, I wanted to wear more “basic” items. But as I mentioned in last month’s 
And of course to complete the look, I chose a fun, graphic bag! For the shows, I actually decided to carry my Cakeworthy 
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 2: Mix different styles into your outfit.
Tip 3: Tuck it in!
We’re a week out from Christmas, so trees, lights, and festive holiday outfits are in full swing! In past years, I would wear the usual lace or sparkles, but this year, 🎶to save me from tears, I’ll give ‘fits some Disney style!🎶
Since most of my Disney pieces are casual, I decided to pair a casual shirt with a satin, silky skirt to dress it up. The mix of casual and dressy gives that cool, city girl vibe that I love. But part of the fun in dressing for the holidays is also being a little kitschy. Enter adorable Christmas light earrings!🎄 And since I have two ear piercings, I obviously had to capitalize on the opportunity and wear two pairs.😏 For this outfit, the green and gold pairs were the perfect accent colors. BONUS: The earrings are less than $5 on 
And even though I only intended to wear one piece of Disney apparel, I ended up wearing three.😅 Since the weather was gloomy, as it usually is during this time of year in San Francisco, I threw on my favorite oversized camel coat, which conveniently, features Mickey. And to carry my essentials, I opted for my small Minnie Coach bag; also adding that perfect dash of Minnie style.🎀🐭❤️
All in all, this was a perfect outfit for my afternoon work holiday party last week. Dressy enough to be party appropriate, yet still laid back, fun, and festive! And another bonus for ya…it’s an easy, comfortable, and cute outfit to wear for a visit to the Union Square tree!🙌🏼
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. 😉
