🖤❤️ Dapper Day + Jollywood Nights ❤️🖤

For my very first and Jollywood Nights, I had to use my man Maul as my inspo 🫶

We had an absolute blast all day! And word to the wise: pack a spare pair of shoes 😆

Thank you for being the Vader to my Maul and for fully committing to the experience! You’re the best!

It just so happens that I’ll be at the next Disneyland Dapper Day 😬 Who should be my inspo next?!

at Disney’s Boardwalk was STUNNING ✨

I know there’s been a lot of talk about pricing, but I think the main course and drinks were comparable to anywhere else on property. And the best part - IT’S DELICIOUS!

Don’t skip it! Try it out for yourself and make your own opinions 🫶

Have you ever wanted to watch Star Wars, but have zero idea where to start??

I get it. It’s a lot 😅

But there are ways to watch the movies and/or shows to make it make sense!

I personally would recommend for newcomers to start with just the movies. I like chronological order, but you can watch in release order if you want to see them how the rest of the world did 🎥

Once you’ve watched the movies through once, I would then go back through them with the shows mixed in. Again, chronological order to me makes everything so much more understandable. But I have included the release date list, as well 🫶

If you’re already a Star Wars fan, how do you like to watch them? If you’re new to Star Wars, let me know if this was helpful and also, what is the most confusing part for you? 👇

I post Star Wars content like this weekly, so make sure you’re following along for more!

🌌If you’re new to or find it confusing, then this is a post you’re going to want to save!

So many people tell me that they wish they could get into Star Wars, but it’s too complicated or they just can’t follow what’s going on. And I get it…it’s like they’re speaking a different language sometimes - well because sometimes they are 😂

But my goal is to help make Star Wars more accessible for people. I want everyone to be able to watch the movies and enjoy them as much as I do! 🫶

Never in my life did I think I would be attending but talked me into it, and I’m so glad she did! 🖤

We got SO much done for our first HHN, and we didn’t even have the Express Pass 👏

Biggest tips if you’re nervous about attending:
- go with someone who doesn’t mind going into the houses first (AKA 🫶)

- WEAR EAR PLUGS (it’s LOUD out there)

- pick your non-negotiables and prioritize them. for me, it was watching the Nightmare Fuel show and getting the s’mores snack. both lived up to the hype ☺️

- if you can afford Express Pass or to do a RIP tour, do it! we were still able to do all we wanted, but there were some houses we agreed to not do. if you want to do them all, especially on a weekend, you’re gonna need to do one of these options

- if you want to go through the scare zones, but you’re afraid of the scares, walk on the sidewalks. they won’t get near you there. but side note: we did all of the scare zones and that was my favorite part! I filmed through all of them and the scare actors will play up to the camera more than trying to scare you 📸

And last tip - HAVE FUN! The energy is INCREDIBLE and everyone is so excited to be there. Do what you’re comfortable with and enjoy the atmosphere, because it’s unlike anything else 🖤

Idk if you knew…but I’m a tshirt girlie 😊

I’ve tried to get away from tshirts, but they just keep pulling me back. And it’s SO hard to stray when so many good small shops make 💣 shirts!! (They’re honestly killing my bank account on the reg)

Here are a few of my faves, in photo order:

I have codes for some of them, but those are all listed in my highlight. I don’t want to sway you to purchase from any in particular because they are all incredible shops and incredible people, and they all deserve your business 🫶

Which shirt(s) are your fave?? Any small shops I’m missing that I need to check out? 👇

Let’s talk Disney price increases💰

Traditionally speaking, Walt Disney World and Disneyland have increased prices on various components (sometimes packages, sometimes tickets, sometimes parking, etc) around the beginning of October. 🗓️

It’s not a guarantee - just a prediction. But in 2022 and 2023, these price increases occurred for both parks on 10/11 🤷🏻‍♀️

If you want to be sure you can lock in prices that are in place now, I’d HIGHLY recommend booking 2024-2025 tickets and packages as soon as you can! 🫶

As always, fill out my quote request form or send me a DM if you want to see what pricing looks like!
