Who else gets the feeling of joy getting ready to go to a Disney Park?
Like planning your outfits, wearing your ears, or choosing your Loungefly backpacks. We love it all! Some of us might not be able to go to a Disney Park all time, that being said, who says you can only wear your Disney merch at the parks?! Be bold and bring magic with you everywhere you go. There are a variety of ways we can 'Disneyfy' our outfits to ensure that we're always looking magical! The easiest and most subtle way to do this is by simply wearing Disney accessories. You can get inspiration from all aspects of Disney, whether its a theme, color or character!
If you're a Disney fanatic, I’m sure you have heard the word 'Disneybounding'. The term Disneybound (or Disneybounding), it was started by blogger Leslie Kay in 2011. Essentially, it became a phrase for the young-at-hearts, to show their love for Disney by wearing outfits that resembled characters without it being a costume.
How to build the perfect Disneybound...
So, to start off your Disneybound - you need to bring it back to the basics. Let's start with what you are planning to wear, whether it is a shirt and pants or a dress. Next up, you need to choose your theme, are you going to channel your inner Disney Princess? Or become a Superhero just like Marvel's Avengers! Just look at the various accessories that @disneyschloe has added into her Star Wars flat lay outfit, including the Star Wars Darkside T-Shirt! Don't forget, there are a variety of ways to complete your look and keep in mind that accessories are key.
Once you have your theme and base outfit, it's time to layer things up. Creating a magical look that caters to your style, can easily be done using accessories. Jewelry is always a popular choice whether it is a necklace, a bracelet, or earrings. I recently created a 'Cruella' Disneybound, I added a necklace and headband to complete my look. A small detail to your style but it helps elevate your outfit. Another choice can be a belt - a belt is a fashion statement and has a functional accessory, this is what we like to call a win, win! The final touch for a complete Disneybound is using hair accessories as a fashion statement such as headbands, hair clips, scrunchies etc. Accessories are a great addition to your outfit, as they allow you to showcase your style and personality.

The Final Touch
Lastly and by no means least, grab a handbag or Loungefly bag to match! Choose one that is color coordinated or matches the theme of your outfit. In some cases, you can even just use your backpack as your main accessory to complete the look!! So, remember the next time you're running an errand, don't forget to add a touch of magic to your day-day look by styling it with your Disney accessories. You'll always find me reaching for my go-to accessories, which are my favorite Stitch Loungefly backpack, my Mickey Mouse shades and my bucket hat for a quick run to the market. A magical outfit is bound to put a smile on someone's face, so what are you waiting for? Get accessorizing!
