This set from Lovers and Friends has got to be my absolute favorite set in my closet. It's not sold as a set online, but I couldn't imagine not getting the dress and the crop jacket together to wear as a set. I did get the dress and crop jacket from Revolve and they are currently both on sale!

I did some research before pulling the trigger on this dress. The reviews were very hit or miss. Some people loved the dress, some said it was bad quality and I have to say, the quality is great. The only complaint I would have it the sizing. It does run small in my opinion. I'm wearing a size Large and normally I would get a small or medium. I loved this dress so much I ended up also ordering it in white so I can style it with some of my colorful bags and shoes. 

I did forget all of my accessories and jewelry since I was too overly excited to get some photos in before I was all finished getting dressed. That's what happens when you're rusty because you take so much time off from blogging...lesson learned! 

Let me know if you've been loving the Barbie-core trend. My favorite color is pink so its an easy yes for me. 

We will always be a Disney family but we have become curious to the other theme parks around Orlando and also by us in the Tampa bay area. We want to go check out Busche Gardens theme park, so I'll keep you posted on that visit when it does happen. 

We also want to go back to the Universal parks and check them out again. I loved the Harry Potter areas in the Universal parks. Universal is also expanding and building a Nintendo themed area in their new Universal's Epic Universe that is coming in the next few years. 

Our son is now 13 years old and is interested in some of the bigger rides. We are very excited for the new Tron coaster at Magic Kingdom that will be opening on March 7th to the public. I am not a fan of the virtual queue that you need to join on the app, because the window to join is so slim and if you miss it, there is no other way to get on the ride. No standby waiting! We still haven't been able to experience the new Guardians of the Galaxy ride at Epcot because of the virtual queue shenanigans. 

Enjoy these photos of Sofia twirling around and smiling in her princess dress! It just melted my heart to see her pose for me when I would take my camera out. My little princess!

My jaw dropped to the floor when I discovered this gorgeous and colorful clothing line from India. Papa Don’t Preach is the name of the luxury brand and it suits the brand perfectly since their initiative is to style a modern society with a sense of unapologetic rebellion. The brand, created in 2010 by designer Shubhika Sharma, in Mumbai, a fashion metropolis in India, focuses on luxury items embellished with beads, crystals, and the most vibrant colors. At only 23 years old, Shubhika opened the doors of Papa Don't Preach to the world with a playful spin on traditional Indian silhouettes and detailed embellished designs. 

Papa Don’t Preach caters to luxury shoppers in the market for bright vibrant bridal looks, jumpsuits, baby doll dresses and even has handbags and other accessories. The styles have even been seen on celebrities such as Paris Hilton, who wore a stunning, ornate, red beaded jumpsuit to a fragrance launch event. 

My favorite collection from the brand is their line up of gorgeous, intricate, over the top baby doll dresses. These baby doll styles do come with a hefty price tag of over $1k US Dollars which would parallel this brand to luxury brands like Zimmermann. I was hoping their prices wouldn’t be so high, but from the moment I saw the first baby doll dress that sparked my interest in this brand, I knew it had to be some astronomical price because the detail and craftsmanship of the design looked top notch. 

I’m certainly interested in Papa Don’t Preach and I am adding a few baby doll dresses to my style wish list for 2023! What do you think about this fashion line?
