Hey Guys & Dolls!
So I realize I never got around to really talking about what happened during the Holiday season last year. There was A LOT. Let’s get into that briefly as well as how my birthday was
CELEBRATING 35 MAGICAL YEARS!
HOW DID I CELEBRATE 35 YEARS ON THIS EARTH? WITH SOMETHING MAGICAL OF COURSE!
A VERY MERRY HOLIDAY W/ MODCLOTH!

LOS ANGELES: HERE'S EVERYTHING I DID!
As you know I recently traveled to L.A. for some good times and relaxation. I got to have delicious food, meet friends & even got a dose of Disney. It was nice to be able to unwind and really take in the city.
HOLLYWOOD BOWL: BLACK PANTHER
Newer followers may not know this but I’m a huge lover of music. If you’ve been to my stories lately you’ll hear a wide array of music I love. So, when the opportunity arose to see the LA Philharmonic (@laphil FOLLOW THEM!) at the one & only @Hollywoodbowl I could NOT pass that up! When I was told what movie we’d be seeing, well that’s when my mind was made up completely! TWO WORDS…BLACK PANTHER.
maybe ally…Tries Summer Fashion!
Summer is in FULL SWING! Have you been able to enjoy it or have you stayed inside for the most part (no judgments here!). If you’ve been outside you’ve maybe noticed some current summer style trends hitting the scene. I know I definitely have.
Fast Fashion (an Essay).
So you wanna buy a few things for a Disney bound. Depending on your size and price point you’ll be facing a big dilemma depending on your beliefs.
POLKA DOTS (an Essay).
What is it about polka dots that make any Disney Style come to life? You could say Minnie Mouse plays a role but also the print itself is so lively and so robust it’s hard not to wear it even when the outfit isn’t Disney inspired.
ACCESSORIES TO USE IN YOUR BOUNDS
How’s the weekend going so far? I know another Monday is looming but that doesn’t mean we can’t make the most out of today right? Let’s talk Accessories! It’s a favorite topic and I can go on for hours about the ones I use for bounds. For today’s post though I’ll talk about three I use frequently to help elevate a bound for me.
maybe ally…Tries Zara
So, who here has shopped at Zara before? Admittedly there was a time in my life where I couldn’t. I was a 2XL. Zara can run very small at times and so it wasn’t a place I shopped at. One health journey later and boom! I decided to make a personal choice and try out Zara.

Where do you go shopping for your Disney Styles? If you aren’t sure where to do or how to create your signature Disney style, follow along on this post as I talk about a few places I love and go into detail about a few outfits.
SHOW YOUR SCARVES SOME LOVE
So I gotta know…are you still wearing scarves for the winter season or are you fed up and tired already? If you are which styles are you going for? I think I’m still wearing my standard long scarf but I also have some amazing Infinity styles that I wear too.
SWEATERS FOR THE WINTER
In the winter season, I tend to wear heavier sweaters because it’s so cold. You will find me in sweatshirts mostly but I love a thin sweater too or something knitted as well.
Take a look at the photos below and tell me which are your favorites!
NATIONAL POLKA DOT DAY STYLE
Happy National Polka Dot Day!
For those who don’t know this is a day in which we celebrate Minnie Mouse and her signature style of polka dots! If you’ve been following me on Instagram you know I’ve been sharing my favorite polka dot styles ALL WEEK LONG, but I wanted to share some of them on the blog as well.
All throughout the post, you’ll see some oldies and some newer outfits. All with their own flare. Whether it’s business casual or a full-on Minnie Style you’ll see it all here.
BEST COATS & JACKETS FOR THE SEASON
Today we are talking all about COATS & JACKETS! A favorite and required garment for the wintertime (for those who experience it at least). What kind of coat would you wear though? Your possibilities are endless.
TRANSITIONING CLOTHES FOR COLDER WEATHER
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! The weather is changing quickly, and with that, your closet and wardrobe need to change as well. I know I just switched out my spring-summer coats for my heavier winter ones recently, but there is more to do and more to shop for if you haven’t already done so.
DISNEY & PLUS SIZE CREATORS: an Essay.
To love something so much is to sometimes take its pains. My mother said that a lot to me when I was younger and for a while, I never understood what she meant. Now as an adult who’s labored through jobs loved that I lost, heartbreaks & more I get it. You can love something and find faults in it. You can love something and want it to be better. This is the case of my love of Disney but it’s clear lack of plus-size representation on social media.
