Mani Monday

May the Fourth be with you! This week’s mani is inspired by Princess Leia’s iconic white and silver dress in Star Wars: A New Hope (and styled with her elegant lightsaber, which I got at Disney World). I used Holo Taco “Sugar Rush” on all but the nail of my index finger, where I used “Circuit Breaker” instead, and topped it all with “Shooting STAR Taco.”

Sartorial Saturday–A Star Wars Bound

Star Wars Day is almost here, and I have the perfect Disney Bound for it…an entire look dedicated to my favorite (Disney) princess, Princess Leia!

I fell in love with the Miss Candyfloss Honesta-May dress the first time I saw it in the lookbook. The eyelet embroidery is gorgeous, and I love the idea of a white cotton dress for summer (even though I am afraid I’ll spill on it!). And then I started thinking about different ways I could wear it, and it occurred to me that it would make a great foundation for a Princess Leia-inspired look:

I have a few very special accessories to complete the outfit…my Loungefly Princess Leia bag, my Rocklove Jewelry Kyber Crystal necklace, and my lightsaber from our trip to Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios last summer:

I added some silver hoop earrings and glittery Splendette Duchess bangles, plus a few sparkly hair clips:

I added a silver belt to the dress, too:

I think I captured the spirt of Princess Leia’s look in A New Hope‘s medal scene without wearing a costume!

I’m looking forward to sharing a few other looks (including another whimsical one!) featuring this dress soon!
