I Believe in Magic

Here we are in Disneyland Paris! We've met the whole Mickey Mouse gang and gone on all the best rides - Pirates of the Caribbean, Peter Pan's Flight, Buzz Lightyear, Big Thunder Mountain, and Space Mountain.  I've also had fun translating the rides and asking for directions around the park in french for my parents and sister.

We've had three nights at Disney and we enjoyed every minute of it! 

We arrived at night the first day, but just in time for dinner on Main Street, play with our food, and watch the  parade.  Isabella was waving her little hand so much when the princesses came rolling around.  You should have seen her face, it was like Christmas all over again.

The second and third day we bounced around Disneyland, rode every ride, played Ninja, and got signatures from as many characters as we could.

To commemorate such a glorious and fun visit my sister and I got matching hats.  We couldn't resist.  Nor could we resist the pirate swords that were hanging on the shelf near them. I totally didn't play sword fight with Isabella, my little sister, while my mom paid for the hats. What would ever give you that idea?

We are big Disney Dorks and proud of it.  Disney Dork salute!

till we meet again,

It's in the bag

One of the most important accessories any women can own is a purse. Whether it be big or small, boho or fashion forward, leather or pleather, a purse is a staple piece that all fashionable, globe trotting women should own.

What a fashion savvy Vogue enthusiast should always make sure is to have 3:1 ratio.  By this I mean, for every four purses, three should be classic (a Kelly by Hermes or a classic Louis Vuitton) and one may be wild (zebra print, ostrich leather, etc.)

The first photo is of my Constance purse by Hermes and the second is of the limited edition Disney purses.  The last is one my Louis Vuitton.  They are all a dream. All three are durable, perfect size wise, and need I mention adorable?  I think not.  What does your 3:1 ratio consist of?

love,

Annika

Just chillin' in the crowd.

It's funny how close Disney is to me.  I go every year at least once and my little sister plays their movies on repeat, and I dunno.  There's something about Disneyland and their films that just makes it feel really special.
I've got to say, my favorite Disney movie is Beauty and the Beast.  I'm a huge fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean series, too.  Have you seen the last one?! SO GOOD! And apparently they are coming out with a Cars and a Monsters Inc. sequel. I dunno about you guys but I am super excited.
Bref, today was my Disney Day and ohmygosh.  So much fun.  We had a VP tour, I think that's what it's called, and Janice (our tour guide) took us all around Disney.  She talked to us about the history at the park and what rides were the best and where we should go at what times.  Also, she got us in the FastPass way to ALL the rides!  We were there from 8 am till 2 pm bouncing/dancing/running from ride to ride.  It was a good day.
Tomorrow we are on the road.

ps. I have a light saber. Game. Set. Match.

down the rabbit hole,
Annika
