Outfit for Day 5 In Disneyland; Angel-Secret Frozen Inspired Dress

It's finally snow here in Tampere! :) I'm really exited. I have been dreaming about building a snowman, but haven't really had time for that yet. It's so dark after 4 pm, that it's simply not possible on work days, so I'll just have to wait until next weekend... :) 

Meanwhile, I still have some pictures of our last summers trip to Disneyland. Though I'm happy that it's snowing, it's also nice to dream about that summer breeze... So like Olaf said; "Sometimes I like to close my eyes, and imagine what it'd be like when summer does come. Ah."


One of the best things about summer is that you can wear dresses! This dress is, again, from angel-secret. I think I'm a bit addicted about that store... I just recently made a new order but more about it later! :D I'll just say, I really shouldn't have. This dress was inspired by Frozen.


I love that pirate ship! It looks like it's calling me for an adventure... :) And this part of the Disneyland park is called Adventureland! It's not the most princessy place of the parks, but a lot of fun.


With my Frozen dress I had a messy bun...


and makeup with brown and pink tones. Heart shaped earrings have roses and diamonds in them :)


My Prince is as stylish as always. We have been so busy lately, especially my Prince, that it's so nice to remember these carefree days... I'm so happy that Christmas holidays are just around the corner <3

Disneyland Adventure, Part 5

At first I want to send all my love to Paris. In times like these we need more magic in our lives than ever.

Our Fifth Day In Disneyland

Our fifth day in Disneyland was, at least to me, kind of bittersweet. I was enjoying every moment, but at the same time I was feeling sad because it would be our last whole day in Disneyland. I felt like I was soon going to leave home for a long time. I was watching everything more closely, trying to remember all the sounds, what Main Street felt under my feet, all the scents in the air... I was saying goodbye. And yet, I was so exited because we still had that day in Disneyland, there was still time to spend in the happiest place on earth!

First thing we did, was to get the appointment to Princess Pavilion. It was so fun that the employees there did remember us! Maybe that's not so surprising since we had been there so many times that week... We got the meeting and then it was time to move to the Walt Disney studios park, since there was a show my Prince just had to see... 


The Moteurs Action!!


 It was actually quite fun :) I could feel all the little boys (and my Prince) being so exited!


After the show we went to get fast pass tickets to the best roller coaster ever; the Rock'n Roller Coaster Avec Aerosmith. While waiting our time to enter we went to Disney Village to do some shopping, and bought tickets to a Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show for that night. We would have also wanted to go to a hot air balloon, but it wasn't open that time for some reason.



Then it was time to screeeam! Really the best roller coaster. How can you be so afraid and exited at the same time?


Next we went in line for Studio Tram Tour. We didn't really have any idea what kind of ride that was, except that it was about the magic behind the films.


 It was kind of interesting, showing different kinds of special effects.


And there were cars from the films, so my Prince was happy again :)


After that we saw the "Animagique" -show that was really fun! It was a play starring Donald, Mickey and friends with music and beautiful lights.


Then we were starting to get hungry, so we went to "Restaurant En Coulisse".


Not really a gourmet restaurant, but we got our stomachs full and had the energy to go to meet a Princess!


And we met Rapunzel! She is so awesome. Coolest! Engagement photo! Ever! :D



And her hair <3



I look so exited about getting her autograph :D And well, let's not deny it; I was.



After meeting Rapunzel we had to hurry to see the"Frozen Fun". This was a new show, and it was hugely popular! We didn't know much about it before, besides that there was a sing along of Frozen songs.




Haha, I just realized that poor little boy in the video holding his ears :D Could there be someone who doesn't like Let It Go? But really, the music was quite loud since everyone was singing. :) The show was adorable, It was not only a sing along, but a play with the characters from Frozen.


After being a moment in a wintry-mood of Frozen, we were wandering around the park, enjoying summer and beauty of Disneyland, and taking some pictures.


One of the nicest things that happened that day, was when we run into these guys!


They came to ask if we could take pictures together, and they were so nice! Even though we didn't really have common language, we had really nice time together.



It is so lovely to meet Disney fans from all over the world, and it's one of the things why I love this place so much. No matter where you're from, love for Disney will bring us together. I wish all the good things to them, maybe we will meet in Disneyland some time again :)


Sun was setting, and it was time for us to go to the Wild West Show!


I really did not had any idea what to expect. All I knew was that there was going to be food, so I was already pleased.

A bottle of Disneyland wine for our last night in Disneyland. They have really thought of every detail.

We got cute cowboy hats with yellow ribbons that signified our team. The Audience had been divided to four groups that were going to compete with each other, and all had their own color. The audience was really exited, and it was easy to get the mood.



The show was great but I think I was most exited about the food :D




Our team was represented by a little girl in Anna costume :)


At some point a totally forgot everything else, and felt like I really was in the Wild West!





I can't remember anymore who won but we sure had fun!


Then it was time to go back to the hotel.. I was sleeping the whole way in train. Tired but happy :D

 After that night I felt I had experienced so much in five days, that is was almost overwhelming. I was still a bit sad about that we were soon going to leave Paris, but also starting to get exited about returning to Finland. I'm lucky to have two homes, Disneyland and Tampere :)

Outfit for Day 4 In Disneyland; Angel-Secret Rapunzel Inspired Dress

I'm really happy to say, that I can finally organize my dresses (and other clothes) in my closet, or maybe I should say dressing room. Our home is in the middle of renovation, and lately it has been a little frustrating trying to find clothes in several piles or boxes. This place is really kind of a mess right now. But last weekend my parents visited us, and we finally finished the renovation in my dressing room, and I could not be happier!


I'm posting more pictures when everything's on it's place :)


One of the dresses I could now hang in my dressing room is this Rapunzel inspired dress from Angel Secret. And I loove it. Again, one of my favorites :)


It's so easy to fall in love with a dress.. 

 
Especially when it's pink...



Has a bow...


A flower pattern...


And it blows in the wind like this. Perfection.


A dress that makes you feel like a princess..

 

Then just add a little make up magic...


And a Prince...


And you two are ready to live happily ever after.



With the Prince too, of course! ;)

Diamonds are a princess's best friend

Hi! How was your Halloween? It's really my favorite holiday after Christmas, because of costume parties and that certain atmosphere, you can really feel the magic in the air. I always love a chance to dress up in a costume, but this year I was working late at the theater, and after a long week I didn't have the energy to go party anymore. But maybe next year we will have Halloween party of our own, when the renovation in our apartment is ready. 

Our palace to be is still under quite a chaos, for example half of my clothes are still missing somewhere, but I'm trying to focus on positive things. Next week we should get the rest of the wallpapers in the walls, and after it we could finally start unpack our stuff. Can't wait to have a real closet instead of a pile... 


I now have a couple days off, and I have spent today glueing diamonds in a Sleeping Beauty's dress while watching Sleeping Beauty. Sounds wonderful and weird, right? 

Sorry about dark pictures, we don't have lights yet in our livingroom so I have been doing this in a candle light.. :)
 
What that really is about, is that I had an idea to glue decoration diamonds in a princess wallpaper we have in our livingroom. I had been thinking to glue just some, but when I went to select the diamonds they were all so pretty... So I had to take diamonds to match the dresses of every princess, and of course chrystal and amethyst coloured... And in different sizes. I haven't counted the diamonds, but I now have glued about half of them and it has taken hours. But it's actually quite fun. 

There is a glue attached in the back of a diamond, that needs to be melted. Of that I'm using the candle. Blue tack attached in a pen is the best tool to pick up the diamonds :)



So today I have been focusing on Sleeping Beauty. It was perfection to glue the diamonds while watching, or better to say listening the Sleeping Beauty movie! So relaxing and beautiful. Perfect thing to do on a day off.  

I'm thinking tomorrow might be Cinderella's turn...:)
