Let Them Eat Cake, Pre-Trip Report Part 2, Teen Princess Dresses

The three fancy teen princess dresses are all here and I took photos!

The first two are from PacificPlex, but I ordered them through Amazon.  The photos do not do these dresses justice.  The light in my basement is ish so the color is off a bit.  Both dresses come with a wrap which you can see hanging on the hangers.  I am going to have to make a slight modification in each of these dresses to make them fit perfectly but they are pretty close off the rack.


The detailing on the green peacock dress is really pretty  The peacock "feathers" are fabric and are appliqued onto the front and wrap around to the back.  There are also little gems sewn on through out the bodice.

She loves how there are a series of different colored underskirts that add to the overall look and color combination on the dress.

The blue dress has a sequined bodice that is just gorgeous and multi-colored underskirts that add to the look of the dress.

The back of this dress laces up, kind of like a corset, making it a lovely teen princess dress.

The third dress is by U.S. Fairytales, again ordered through amazon.  When we first saw this dress on the amazon webpage my first thought was it looked like a modern version of Cinderella.  However when we got it, we both thought it had more of an Ariel feel!  This dress fits perfect!  It also comes with a wrap.  This dress ended up being her favorite.



The dress looks more turquoise and the sequins reminded us of fish scales, while the skirts kind of look like ocean waves. The bodice detailing is beautiful.  This dress also laces up in the back. The wraps with the other two dresses are plain but the wrap for this dress has beads sewn on the edges.  Just gorgeous!

She wants to get capri or bike length leggins to wear under the dresses and will be wearing sandles or high top tennis shoes.  This princess has some tomboy in her.  She is also talking about dying her hair purple for the occasion.

I bought all of these dresses at a very discounted cost so my wallet is very happy too.  She looks and feels amazing in them and ultimately that was the goal, for her to feel like a princess.

Theme Park News

Photo by Mice Chat Well, The Disney Star Wars Galactic Star Cruiser, closed. I never did get to go to the experience. It was just too much cost. Things in my life changed and I couldn’t justify the expense. Instead, I watched YouTube videos and read blogs about others experience at the Star Cruiser. I think I would have loved it, but I was able to see what others experienced, while saving myself $6000. I am including a link to a Mice Chat Blog about the closing. They did attend and have some great photos.  I was actually a little bit surprised by the news of the closure. Disney spent so much money and time on its creation and construction. Initially they said they had no plans to do anything with the building or experience. However, they have since said they may do a smaller, less intense version. I will keep an ear out about the future of the Halcyon.  I would like to go back to Disney at some point. They again raised prices and I feel like there may be one more b...

Not All the Disney, But Still Some Disney

I posted back on May 9 th , 2018 , that I was changing this blog from a family blog to a Disney blog.  I also mentioned that I was going to create a new blog for me to post about how life changed now that our daughter was an adult and doing school was no longer our day to day. Well, I have been pretty lacking on posting anything to be honest.  Actually, I just realized I have purchased some things for my Disney collection that I never shared here!  I am a bad, bad blogger. We never went to Disney for our 25 th anniversary, despite our best intentions.   I don’t foresee a whole lot of Disney vacationing in my future to be honest.   It’s gotten so expensive.   While I love Disney and love to do little Disney things, Disney crafts, Disney purchases. I also love Halloween, work at a haunted house attraction, garden, craft, have a work life, am dealing with the changes of aging and perception of aging.   I have a lot of things on my mind.   Instea...

Disney Trip Report Day 1

Sunday, October 6, 2013 Arrival, Downtown Disney It was finally here! The day we leave for Disney! My husband, our daughter and myself, plus daughter's BFF, were all flying down this afternoon and ready to have a week long full of Disney fun! We have always gone in May in the past and thought it would be fun to mix things up. We decided to go in October so we could attend Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween party .  It just happened to also be during my birthday!   We had everything packed and ready to go the night before. My friend  was roped into volunteered to take us all to the airport and pick us up when we got back. We decided to kick off our vacation with all of us going to breakfast at Bob Evan's before heading to the airport. We had a hearty breakfast and good conversation with good company and then set out for our airport adventure. We had a 1:05 pm departure time and also needed to go through airport security. Having never flown ...
