Today’s theme for Color Me Park Hopper (hosted by colormemagic on IG) is Tomorrowland. Now, for most people who’ve been to the Disney Parks, we know that Tomorrowland basically represents the way people perceived the future in the past: everything sleek and metallic. Also, while the castle is the centrepiece of the park, Space Mountain is the centrepiece of Tomorrowland, meaning I had to take inspiration from this roller coaster.

Hence, the sleek white Hervé Léger Dress. The stars go perfectly with the space theme which can be found throughout the area, while the sandals have a bit of a past futuristic look and are perfect for this outfit with a sleek vibe. The colours one can find within Tomorrowland being predominantly white and silver, one can also find plenty of blue, so I went for a blue handbag. As for the sunglasses, well... They just fit the vibe of the outfit.

So, this outfit is actually what led me to participate in this IG challenge. It originally was a random item outfit, with the Lelet NY Halo being the random item. As I was slowly building it, I decided to go for a Sleeping Beauty-inspired look. Then I saw colormemagic’s challenge and the final prompt and thought that a Sleeping Beauty outfit would be perfect for the Disneyland prompt since the castle there is Sleeping Beauty’s castle.

While the dress is a lighter shade of pink than Aurora’s, I still think it works as it’s actually close to the pink of the castle. The gold necklace is because Aurora wears a gold necklace, and the rose clutch is because her name before she finds out she is a princess is Briar Rose. As for the shoes, I just love the metallic colour gradient.

I started this challenge with a casual look inspired by Cinderella’s castle, and ended it with a formal look inspired by Sleeping Beauty’s castle. I really enjoyed doing this challenge and I would like to thank colormemagic for organizing and hosting it.

Today’s theme for Colour Me Park Hopper is “Favourite Snack”. Now, my favourite snack is Mickey’s Ice Cream Bar, but I already did an outfit based on that sweet icy treat for Color Me Valentine. So I should have picked another snack I like, right?

Well, the life of a picky eater is not as simple. Mickey’s Ice Cream Bar is my go-to snack, and while I also like popcorn, it doesn’t come close to my ice cream bar, not to mention I can get popcorn anywhere, while Mickey’s Ice Cream Bar is a treat I can only get when in the American parks. It’s not available in grocery store’s here...

All this to say, I had to create another Mickey’s Ice Cream Bar outfit. This time though, I decided to inspire myself of the colours of the treat itself, not of the packaging. So brown and white it is, with a bit of flesh tone for the popsicle stick.

I opted for a white top with a brown skirt, because after biting into that delectable treat, the vanilla ice cream can drizzle on top of the chocolate coating, and sometimes, you have to bite off a piece of chocolate, leaving part of the vanilla ice cream exposed. The brown handbag is basically just to go with the colour scheme. The headband and necklace need no explanation.

Day 2 of Color Me Park Hopper and the theme is Time Travel/Dapper Day! For today, I decided to create a Dapper Day-worthy Tinkerbell look.

Dapper Day is an event that takes place twice a year, and that I mostly associate with Disneyland in Anaheim, even if it also takes place in Walt Disney World and Paris. It actually started in 2011 at Disneyland, and I would dare say the Disneyland event is the most famous one. I did come across a Dapper Day pop-up last time I was at WDW, in 2019... Before the pandemic...

Anyway, as they say on their website “DAPPER DAY events celebrate the tradition of “stepping out in style” and are meant to showcase you looking your best while celebrating your own personal style. We do not aim to recreate a specific period.” So while vintage-inspired outfit are not mandatory, anyone who has ever seen any pictures of Dapper Day knows vintage style is heavily associated with the event. Since I don’t have many vintage-like clothes in my virtual closet, I decided to make an outfit with just a slight period feel.

Today’s theme for Color Me Park Hopper (hosted by colormemagic on IG) is Main Street. I decided to create an outfit that had a vibe that matches the Main Street atmosphere: understated elegance.

Today’s theme for Color Me Park Hopper is Fantasyland! Now, It’s a Small World is the ride that comes to mind for most people when it comes to Fantasyland. But I already created an outfit for that ride, so I decided to take inspiration from another Fantasyland attraction: Mickey's PhilharMagic. 

Not only is there a scene from Fantasia’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice in the show, but the blue hat from that movie is what leads to everything that happens during PhilharMagic. So, I decided to create an outfit based on Mickey’s look in, you guessed it, The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.
