There's no telling how far I'll go

The best part about Dapper day? It's a weekend long event which means double the fashion and Disney. Day two this spring took place at Epcot my favorite park and I may be biased but it was definitely the best of the days. This weekend was extra special because I got to spend it with with my dear friends Maggie and Cailey. They are my co-hosts on our podcast Mainstreetstylepodcast , our combined love of Disney and all things dapper made this weekend simply unforgettable. We even had a meetup to celebrate being all together for the weekend, and it was magical! Meeting so many of you lovely folks on Dapper day is always my favorite part of the weekend. Nothing beats meeting like minded individuals who share a love of fashion and all things Disney. Keep scrolling to see our day two adventures and the lovely folks we met along the way.

Tale as old as time

It's the best time of the year! Dapper day season has come again and I couldn't be more excited to share this year's adventures with you. For those of you who don't know, or are a little lost wondering what dapper day is, let me explain. Dapper day is an event that takes place in Walt Disney World, Disneyland and Disneyland Paris twice a year. Once in the spring and then again in the fall every year. While not an official Disney event it has grown so much in popularity and size over the years, even the cast members know when it's coming. 

Accessorize the Besame way!

Besame Cosmetics is celebrating 15 years of incredible makeup products and nailing the vintage aesthetic. Nothing says Happy 15th anniversary quite like a limited edition bag set. For those of you who are new here, Besame cosmetics is a makeup brand that specializes in recreating modern reproductions of classic luxury makeup from the '20s to the '70s. Now while Besame is known for their lipsticks, these past 15 years have shown that they have something for everyone. From their collaborations with Disney producing eye-catching shadow palettes and perfumes, to their love of all things vintage in a Peggy Carter inspired line Besame has something for makeup lovers everywhere. They've evolved from lipsticks to eyeshadows, blushes, mascara and everything in between. Over the years they've even expanded to bags as well including this limited edition set to celebrate 15 years.

Surviving Dapper day!

Step right up folks! The long-awaited Dapper day tips blog post is finally here! I talk about Dapper day on the blog every year as it's my favorite event, I've been going since I first found out about it in 2014. I never miss it as it's such a special weekend to me, both the fall and spring event brings different and amazing experiences. I usually do a  recap blog post but at the request of many of you lovely folks, I have decided to do tips and tricks blog post this time around as well. Whether you are looking to get last minute outfit inspiration, or just learn from someone who's been going for years you've come to the right place. I asked for your input as well to see what kind of tips you would like. So I've got a mixture of my own personal tips and answers to your questions. I am by no means a dapper day expert as if there were such a thing, just spreading the knowledge I've gained from going for years. While most of my information will be due to my experience here at Walt Disney World, I think it can be used anywhere. Keep reading to get my tips to having a fun and unforgettable Dapper day weekend!

The March Disneybound challenge!

For those of you who have been following me for a while, you know that my love of Disney is all-encompassing. When I first found out about Disney bounding I fell instantly in love. I not only get to dress up in outfits inspired by my characters but I also get to wear them to the parks! It truly doesn't get any better than that. True to who I am, I always have my own take on the bounds. I do a vintage twist on them which is known as Dapper bounding but we can talk about that in a different post. The March Disney bound challenge is a way to combine my love of Disney, fashion and bounding into one. For 31 days the Disney community becomes one ALL OVER THE WORLD. I'm not kidding when I say fans from Canada to Tokyo join in. It is an incredible event to be a part of one that brings us together due to our love of Disney. You don't have to do all thirty days or even all the prompts, you can join in whenever works best for you. The main idea is to have fun and bring the community together. I did all 31 days because I truly wanted to push myself and get my creativity going. It isn't called the Disney bound challenge for nothing! So keep scrolling to see what bounds I did and be sure to tell me which one you liked best!

Calling all adventurers!

Kungaloosh Adventurers! It's that time of year again! What time might you ask? Well it's Adventureland day ofcourse! For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, have no fear Paola is here to explain everything. Now Adventureland day is a fan hosted event that takes place in both Disneyland in California  and Walt Disney World here in Florida. It was created last year by none other than Tiki Tony himself. It brings together all lovers of Adventureland and anything Adventure related. Everything from Tarzan to Indiana Jones himself, quite the all encompassing event isn't it? Last year I stumbled upon it by chance and had such a  wonderful time I knew I had to attend agin this year. I couldn't have been more happy that i did not only was the turn out amazing, but it was even more fun than the last one and i can't until next year's.

Think of a mermaid lagoon

Second star to the right and straight on till morning! Off to Neverland we go thanks to Besame Cosmetics new "Mermaid Lagoon" collection, inspired by the mermaids from Peter pan.  No movie has shaped me more than Peter pan. My life motto is to never grow up, and spread pixie dust in every way I can. This movie has brought endless joy,wonder and appreciation for magic. I am so excited to be able to combine my love of Peter pan and vintage style make up for today's post. Besame cosmetics and Disney are a match made in heaven, are you ready to se more of this amazing collection? Join me underneath a magical moon to celebrate Peter Pan's 65th anniversary thanks to Besame cosmetics!

Not so black and white!

There's no denying my affinity for color, my personal mantra in life is to make everyday as bright and rainbow filled as possible. It's not that I'm not a fan of black and white,in fact they are two of my favorite colors. Once upon a time in my teenage years I used to only wear black, my how the times have changed. I've come a long way since then,albeit I'll never say no to a good little black dress. It felt nice to try something a bit different for this blog post, after all my affinity for vintage began with the old black and white movies. It's more so that I feel the possibilities to work with colors are endless,whereas black and white doesn't come in varying shades or hues. I think thats what makes dressing in all black and white a bit challenging for me. While black and white clothes may not be my favorite color combo,there's no denying that classic charm and elegant feel you get from it. It almost feels like stepping back in time, which is what I tried to do with this post. Keep scrolling to see the inspiration behind my look and see more photos!

Who's the leader of the club?

It's Mickey mouse ofcourse. This year Mickey is celebrating 90 years of magic, can you believe it? Feels like just yesterday I discovered Mickey mouse and my love for Disney. Mickey mouse is an icon in every way shape and form. He revolutionized the animation world and opened the door to a whole new world of wonder and possibilities. It'll come as no surprise to you that Mickey mouse has endless merchandise made in his likeness, from hats to books,to shows even food. Mickey is a symbol of universal magic and hope all around the world. The celebrations for his 90th have been spectacular but none quite as exciting as Besame Cosmetics release of a Mickey Mouse inspired set. As most of you know, I'm a tried and true Besame girl they're my favorite make up brand hands down. When I saw they were releasing another Disney inspired collection blending my love of makeup with Mickey himself, I was beside myself with excitement. I am so thankful to Besame for sending me the set to review. Ready to celebrate Mickey with me? Keep Scrolling to read my thoughts on the set & to see how I styled it!

Three cheers for three years!

Hello friends whether old or new thank you for following along on this journey. Today marks three years since I first started this blog and while there have been many changes throughout the last few years, I am so thankful for all of you! It’s been awhile since my first introduction post and I’ve grown and changed a lot since then, as have you my readers. So let’s get better acquainted shall we?

Onto the next adventure!

Photographer: Erick Paul Photography

The times they are a changin'. You might have noticed the blog has been going though some changes this year, and a lot of that is because we no longer live in the same city. We have also grown so much though this blog. We want to thank all of you for being here for this journey and for the future. We have a little announcement!

Photographer: bturrellphotography

This next year will be very different from the past years of thehepburnmovement because I (Kyra) have decided to pursue other dreams. While working full time, working on a second degree, and doing the blog I haven’t been able to find the time to pursue other outlets. I want to spread my creative wings and try something new. I have had so much fun doing the blog and love all of the friends I have made thanks to it! This being said I am planning on starting a YouTube channel in the new year! This channel will be filled with vintage inspired fashion tips, lazy girl guides to, mental health topics (like coping mechanism, depression, and others), as well as anything else I think will be fun! This channel will be for me to express myself and to work on projects that interest me! I hope you will follow me on this journey and also follow Paola on hers as she turns this blog into her dream!

Follow Kyra on instagram for more updates!

If you have any comments, questions or even suggestions on what you'd like to see us do next, feel free to comment below and we'll do  our  best to reply in a timely manner.

As always thanks for reading, may your days be filled with pretty dresses, dapper clothes & a lot of happiness. 

Paola & Kyra xx
