As many of you know, the “Princess Bride” just recently turned 30. Yes, thirty! I’m still trying to come to terms with this. Like many of you, I saw the movie when I was a child. My brother-in-law bought a VHS copy, and it got intense usage throughout the years. The film instantly became […]
Ten ‘Beauty and the Beast’ Dresses Inspired by Belle’s Yellow Gown
Disney’s Beauty and the Beast was one of my favorite movies as a child. Somewhere there’s video footage of me dressed as Belle singing every song from the movie while acting out the film as a one-woman show.

Summer has been especially busy this year.

Gowns Inspired by Ariel’s Purple Dress in ‘The Little Mermaid’
Out of all the gowns featured in “The Little Mermaid,” my absolute favorite was Ariel’s purple dress that she wore when running through the water to reunite with Prince Eric.

Dreamy Frozen Prom Dresses Inspired by Elsa’s Blue Gown
“Frozen:” The newest fairy-tale retelling in the long, successful line of Disney princess movies. I loved the film and the most magical moment was Elsa’s decoration of her ice castle and the dazzling transformation into her new sparkly, blue ensemble.

Jem from the ’80s animated TV series “Jem and the Holograms” is definitely one of my main sources of fashion inspiration. And if it’s one thing that was a staple of Jem’s wardrobe, it was an LPD (little pink dress). It’s also no secret that I love going to thrift stores to pop some tags every […]
