Outfit of the Day: 50s Dress by Steady

Share This Post

Our next outfit of the day is by Steady.

This dress is a lucky find at the Dapper Day Expo last month.

Steady Clothing has a great selection of items, and they are size inclusive!

I love the fit of this dress, not to mention the print.  Who doesn’t love 50s spaceships and robots?!

I added the black belt myself, but I was thinking a bright color belt would be great to add a pop of color if you have one.

Clothing companies like Steady make it easy to incorporate dapper into everyday.  Happy shopping!

Dapper Day at Disneyland

Share This Post

A couple of weeks ago, the kiddo and I were lucky enough to attend our first Dapper Day at Disneyland!

Dapper Day is something I’ve always wanted to attend, but just never had the opportunity to do so.

A little background on Dapper Day.  Two times a year at Disneyland, WDW and Disneyland Paris, Disney hosts a Dapper Day event.  This event has an Expo, where you can purchase dresses, shoes, gloves, sunglasses, hats, bowling shirts, parasols, etc. and then it is off to the parks to enjoy your day in your dapper finery.  Visit their website here for more information.

Here are some wonderful pictures from our Dapper Day.  If you got a chance to attend, what were your thoughts?  Please comment and let us know.  We love to hear from you!

We decided this is the first of many Dapper Days to come for us.  We were super inspired.  As a matter of fact, we are going to focus on more dapper inspired mash-ups with our cosplay and bounding for everyday in the coming year on our blog.  So stay tuned for that!

My dress is from The Disney Dress Shop.  I’m wearing a 3xl, but it is a little big on me.  I wear a size 18/20 for reference.  Bolero from Torrid.  My fascinator is from Amazon.  My shoes are from Skechers.

Happy Shopping and hope to see you at the next Dapper Day Expo!

Outfit of the Day: Veronica Lodge Cloak

Share This Post

Today’s outfit of the day isn’t so much an outfit as a “look”.  The kiddo and I recently became obsessed with “Riverdale”.  It is the best described as “Twin Peaks” meets “90210”.  The crazy has been turned up to 11 on this show in the best possible way.

More than the crazy plot twists, however, are the fashions!  The fashions on this show are amazing!  I have become obsessed with Veronica’s wardrobe.

I recently purchased the Veronica Lodge cape from Hot Topic.  The cape or cloak is fully lined with Veronica’s name and includes a hood.  The cloak comes in both juniors and plus sizes.

To get that Veronica look, take a swing dress in a darker color and pair it with a skinny belt. Pair it with some kitten heels and a vintage bag.  Accessorize with pearls.

Complete the look with the cloak, and you have instant glam worthy of any Riverdale Vixen!

Blue tartan dress and red/black tartan dress from Amazon.  Cloak from Hot Topic.

 

Happy Shopping!

LACC and Our New Cosplay

Share This Post

Our latest cosplays, Hogwarts students, debuted at Los Angeles Comic Con.

Unfortunately, LACC was pretty lackluster this year, so we don’t really have any new from it to share.  I think with Stan Lee stepping down and taking his name off the con, it is having a bit of an identity crisis.

But our latest cosplays were a big hit, so we will be rolling these out again very soon.  Hopefully at Universal to get some pictures.

This outfit also works as a great outfit of the day.  Ties are from Spirit Halloween.  Vests from Goodwill and shirts from Amazon.
