Disney Look

All of the Disney Look Guidelines can be found here: DISNEY LOOK

You should definitely read through it thoroughly before you go shopping for a few different business outfits. You'll need these for Disney Traditions and for classes if you're taking any! 

At first, it's a little overwhelming reading through all the guidelines, but once you get the hang of it, shopping should be a breeze. You just can't wear anything too revealing, too short, or too casual. You'll want to make a good impression with everyone you meet and that starts with your outfits. Here are some ideas I came up with for traditions (or for class):

NOTE** All pieces for the outfits can be found HERE or by clicking on each outfit set.

Outfits:

To achieve an outfit like this, you'll need a lace dress (or a dress made of fabric that is Disney appropriate - Nothing cheap and easily wrinkled). These wedges are easy to walk in and the color really adds style to the outfit.  I added a cardigan in case it gets a little chilly in the classroom, and I accessorized with a simple necklace and a mickey watch. An outfit like this is easy to re-create and you can even achieve multiple different outfits while you're at it. 

This outfit is utilizing trousers - in case you're the type of person who prefers pants, this look is for you! Add a flowy, fitted top and layer it with a lace blazer, a big leather purse, and some patterned flats. Keep your accessories to a minimum, but this star necklace is dainty and adds a little personality.

This outfit is SO easy to achieve, and it's usually my go-to look! Buy a nice, longer pencil skirt. It should be a few inches about the knee, but no shorter. Then find some nice blouses or tops - I chose a lace top, layer that with a colored blazer which adds personality and color to any outfit! Flat shoes are always a lifesaver if you hate heels or if you have a lot of walking to do. Add some pearl earrings and a nice, simple necklace and you're set!! 

***Don't be afraid to experiment when it comes to "The Disney Look". Yes, there are guidelines, and yes, you might not be accustomed to dressing like this, but it will serve you well for any of your future endeavors so figure it out now, and you'll be set for life.

Key Pieces to Invest In:

1) Blazers: Buy at least one colored blazer, a lace one, and a basic black or navy colored one. Make sure it's made of nice fabric and fits you well. This is one of those things that can last in your closet forever if it's good quality and you take care of it.

2) Pencil Skirt: Most girls have a few pencil skirts, but if you don't GO BUY ONE NOW. You will not regret it… and before I forget, NO a bodycon skirt does not count as a "pencil skirt". If you don't know what that is, then google "bodycon skirt". Go get 2 or 3 black skirts (and one grey one if you'd like). Again, make sure they are long enough. Do the sit test on a chair - does it ride up when you sit down? Can you see your undies? Also, bend over in front of a mirror and see what other people would see if you bent over. I know it sounds funny but it's a must!

3) Shoes: Get a few pairs of flats (2 or 3) usually black is the best bet, but don't be afraid to go bold and get colored or patterned flats. Also, feel free to get heels if you like to walk in them or wedges. Wedges are always a comfier version of heels… one of my favorites! 

4) Dress Pants: Get 2 or 3 pairs of dress trousers. Make sure they are long enough and not high waters. If you're going to be wearing heels with them, make sure you buy them a little bit longer and try them out with your shoes. You don't want to be stepping on the hem but you also don't want them to be too short. Most stores offer a tailor to bring up your dress pants a little at little or no extra cost. 

5) Tops: Find a bunch of blouses to mix and match with things. These will be a lifesaver for throwing together easy, professional outfits. I get my tops at TJ Maxx usually, but most dressy tops can be found at stores everywhere - even Forever 21 has some tops that will pass as Disney appropriate! 

6) Dresses: I LOVE dresses. They are SO easy to wear, and you can throw them on with some flats and you have a whole outfit! I have some lace dresses, some black dresses, and lots of tailored dresses in my own closet, but if you don't, then don't be afraid to go try some on and find some business savvy ones that work for you.
