Minnie Mouse.

I'm such a a horrible blogger! Not only have I not met my New Year Resolution to blog at least once a week (seriously it's the end of June and this is my second June post, wtf), but this dress I got LAST YEAR in August when I went to Disneyland, and let me not forget to mention that the pictures were taken in early May. These are more cruddy cell phone pics. The good news is that I finally found my camera charger, or rather my mom found it in her car. Apparently I left my charger in her car after she picked me and my daughter up from the airport in April.

I want to say I paid about $54 for this dress, and I purchased it at the World of Disney store in Downtown Disney. While I think it's very cute, I do have some gripes about it. First complaint is that the black sash doesn't go all the way around, I'm sure this is do to the ruching in the back, but it seriously bugs me. The other Issue I have is that the bust is pretty big in strange areas and tends to gape; as you can see in the photos, I have to wear a cami underneath. Besides those minor issues, I like the dress. I love the little bow and broach with Minnie (which I obviously need to iron or something since the one side is smashed down). Another element of the dress that I like is that the polka dots are not solid, they're more of a swirled, scribbled effect up close. I almost feel like I should of had a big bow in my hair, but that may of been pushing it. Maybe next time. I wish Disney would expand the plus size clothing options though, because there were definitely some other clothing items I would of purchased had they been available in my size. I'm curious to see how it is at Disney World, we'll be heading there in August (so freaking excited!), so I guess I'll just have to wait and find out.

  2. I absolutely hate when you love a dress and have problems with the fit. Ugh! But it looks like you made it work because I sure couldn't tell!
