When I recently went to Japan (Yes! I went to Japan!) I knew I had to go to Harajuku, the fashion capital of the weird and quirky. And oh did I find the quirky! I loved Harajuku so much, and kinda wish I had actually bought me more... Anyways, when in a cute little shop with my friends I was debating getting a little black dress with lipstick tubes, but then I saw this dress in the same cut but with a much more weird print, so of course I had to have it. My thought process was that, "Get stuff that you can't find in the states" and I definitely don't think I can find this in the states.

And yes, I did get some nachos while eating this dress, and they were delicious. I actually wore this dress out to a brunch outing with my mom, and felt every so comfortable. I wish I had taken a few pictures of the restaurant we went to, but ce la vie. Editing pictures of Wondercon and my Japan trip right now, so hopefully one will be done soon. Until then, TTFN ta ta for now.

I'm back! Sorry for the hiatus, life gets in the way and sometimes you just feel "blegh" and don't feel like doing anything.

When your whole outfit comes from one place, you know that you have a problem. I have been waiting for this dress to go on sale after seeing on two other bloggers, and I gotta say I love it. It may twee as fuck (thank you TLo for that phrase), but I still think it's perfect. I hope to get better pictures of it soon, until then, these will have to do. TTFN, ta ta for now.

Dapper Day Folly After Party

I'm sure you have heard of Dapper Day at Disneyland, and if you haven't here's a little summary: Beautiful people come dressed in beautiful clothing to Disneyland and spend the day being fabulous. I have always wanted to go to Dapper Day, but have never been able to make it since it is on a weekday. But I heard about the Folly After Party and knew that I had to go! And I am so happy I went! I not only got to dance the night away but wear my vintage dress I got from the Vintage Fashion Expo a while ago, any my Mickey pin from D23! So double success!

But before heading to the after party my friends and I had dinner at the Jazz Kitchen. I love how the Jazz Kitchen is decorated and couldn't help but take a few pictures of the decor (and the delicious souffle we ended the night with).

So, back to Folly...the After Party was set up like a small club above the Jazz Kitchen in Downtown Disney with a main room and secondary room with  a balcony and bars throughout. In the main room was live music from a swing band, and a mellow jazz band in the secondary room for people who wanted to just relax. In the main room with the swing band were some of the most amazing dancers I have ever seen! Watching them dance made we want to dance (and I totally did, my jam is "dancing with myself" because no one is crazy enough to dance with me)! I was totally swept up in the beauty and swankiness of the event and enjoyed every minute of it. Well, until I had to walk back to the car, and my feet were killing me! But I think it was all worth it. I am determined to go to Spring Dapper Day and make my own dress (hopefully inspired by Vanellope Von Sweet from Wreck It Ralph). All I can say is that Disney can really throw a party! Until next time, TTFN ta ta for now.
