Now, THIS is a challenge! I swore to all that was holy that I would never ever get a spirit jersey. They are big, boxy, but tapered enough at the bottom that they don’t hang right on you. They are just plain, well, not a good look. My opinion, of course.
But then, Disney did this to me…
Needless to say, I bought a spirit jersey. Get your own here. Once I received it, I had to take scissors to it first to remove the high neck. T-shirt surgery tutorial here. Make sure you don’t cut the back too low to keep the awesome lettering on the back. Then I cropped it off so I could wear it with high-waisted leggings or skirts.
Because the top is so voluminous, you need to balance out the bottom of the outfit with something close to the body. Balance is key.
I paired my spirit jersey with my new Big 3 pin and Bucky Barnes dogtags. I wore a stretch pencil skirt from Forever 21 with it and some silver clunky sneakers from Fila. Click on links to buy.

Recently, boyfriend Bill and I got to go to Disney’s California Adventure for their Touch of Disney event.
This was the perfect opportunity to wear my Captain America dress by Her Universe for Disney Dress Shop!
Because of COVID, this poor dress has been waiting patiently in my closet for almost a year to go out and strut.
It was totally worth the wait! As always, this dress is made well, looks great and is super comfy.
I paired it with my slip on Chuck Taylor’s by Converse and an Amazon petticoat. Lipstick is our very own in the “Darcy” shade in the store.
We had an amazing day! Now that the parks are all about to open, I’m looking forward to sharing new and original builds for Galaxy’s Edge and Avenger’s Campus, so stay tuned.

We got to go to our second Dapper Day at Disneyland recently. We spent a day in the parks and a day at the Dapper Day Expo. For our parks day, I wore my new Captain America Stealth dress to both parks.
Dress is from Grace Karin on Amazon. Belt is from Amazon. Foam shield from Disneyland park. Shoes are my DIY saddle shoes, which you can get instructions to make your own here. For DIY for the star and bars for the dress, click here.
Cap himself said that he had never worn that uniform so well, so he liked it!
Spidey also loved it, and asked if he could “borrow” my shield.
Captain Marvel also loved the look and really liked the idea of comfy saddle shoes! I also crossed universes and went to Batuu!
Please enjoy the pics and send us pics from your Dapper Day. We love to hear from you!
Until next time…
Love, Kim and Benji
For my latest cosplay, I put together a look for Dapper Day of my favorite Captain America suit, the stealth suit.
The dress is pretty easy to put together. I found some iron-on transfer paper at a craft store. With that, a star-shaped cookie cutter and a straight edge, I was able to create the stealth dress.
When choosing your star, make sure you choose one that is good scale to your body. Then you will need three stripes on each side, again, keep an eye on the scale. The stripes end at the arms at a 90 degree angle, but are diagonally cut to fit close to the star. The lengths also vary, with two shorter stripes on the top and bottom and the longest in the middle.
Here are some reference pictures for you:
Here is a shopping guide for the look:

Happy shopping and crafting!

I have this great Cap shield that I used for cosplay, but the problem is that it scratched up rather easily. Now I have a great shield, but it is not looking so great these days.
I decided to do the girliest thing possible and glitter it!
It took about three months in total to do it. Because I wanted to make sure the different colors of glitter didn’t run into the others, I had to start from the inside and work my way outwards.
I used the products pictured below. Click on the links here for the glitter, brushes, glue and sealer. All available on Amazon.
Happy Shopping and send us pictures of your creations!
Love, Kim and Benji
