Are you like many and hooked on HBO’s Westworld? Yeah, same here. Do you wish you could visit Westworld? Well, Knott’s Berry Farm’s Ghost Town Alive (which has returned for its third year) is the closest thing you’re going to find.

Spring Dapper Day

April 25, 2018, 3 Comments

Last Spring Dapper Day I wore a floral square dancing dress, which I absolutely adored. I had planned to do the same this year, but then I got to thinking about my many neglected Gunne Sax dresses, which I made a New Year’s resolution to wear more of this year. For some reason this dress…

Over the weekend Patrick and I were lucky enough to tour the Walt Disney Studios thanks to our friends Danielle and Anees. Disney offers tours of the Studio in a variety of ways.

Easter at Knott’s Berry Farm

April 2, 2018, 5 Comments

For Easter, Patrick and I went to Knott’s Berry Farm to continue the fun of Boysenberry Festival, which comes to a close this upcoming weekend. I used the holiday and festival as an excuse to go a little over the top with my outfit. The whole outfit was inspired by the boysenberry pie purse I…

Walt’s Barn at Griffith Park

March 19, 2018, Leave a Comment on Walt’s Barn at Griffith Park

Fans of Walt Disney may know that Walt adored trains. So much so that in 1950 he built a 1/8th scale steam train railroad, which he and his guests were able to ride, at his home in Holmby Hills. Today portions of that train and the barn he built as a workshop live on at…

Boysenberry Festival at Knott’s Berry Farm has quickly developed as a tradition for us each spring. It is a time when Knot’s Berry Farm really showcases its history along with creating new boysenberry concoctions. It’s also a perfect excuse to break out all of the purple items in my wardrobe! I had planned a totally…

Adventureland Day

Over the weekend Disneyland was met with a new theme day, Adventureland Day, a day dedicated to celebrating the wild jungle of Adventureland. I was super excited about this, because while I love Tiki Day, I love what I call “Adventurer Chic” more, and this was the perfect excuse! Since it was on the cooler…

Frontier Day

If you follow me on Instagram, then perhaps you know that I was behind the “unofficial theme day” Frontier Day that happened last weekend at Disneyland, a day that celebrates Disneyland’s Frontierland, and of course western wear was encouraged! Dapper Day is perhaps the most well known “unofficial theme day” at Disneyland, but there are…

Palm Parlor

Over the weekend the ever lovely Cailey, aka Dole Whip Dame on Instagram, put together a little Disneybound event, where she encouraged her friends to be inspired by the Main Street shops and windows. I chose Fargo’s Palm Parlor, a window that honors Roland (aka Rolly) Fargo Crump, a Disney animator and Imagineer. Rolly Crump…

Christmas in Frontierland

December 29, 2017, 1 Comment

Like spending Christmas Eve at Knott’s Berry Farm as become a tradition, spending Christmas Day at Disneyland is also one for us. It’s one of the few places open on Christmas, and while it’s usually very busy, we always enjoy ourselves. I thought it was also a perfect opportunity to wear my vintage Guatemalan Weavers…
