dapper day @ disneyland.

twice a year, 'dapper day' takes place at disney parks around the world.

"inspired by the original disney park designer's illustrations, which often featured extremely well dressed guests enjoying the park, dapper day events celebrate the tradition of stepping out in style."

most people dress in 50's style clothing to replicate the way disneyland's guests dressed when the park first opened in 1955. once we entered the gates, i kind of felt like i was walking into an episode of mad men... so many amazing dresses!


here are a few clips from my dapper evening with my brother and our friend, joseph.

to be honest, i didn't want to leave. like... maybe not ever.

why can't people always value dressing up like this?

for more info about dapper day you can check out their website here.
i can't wait for the spring event! hopefully i can drag along some more friends to that one too. :)
