Watch Wednesday: Custom Rapunzel Watch

    

      Today's Watch Wednesday happens to be the watch my parents gave me for my fifteenth birthday. Tangled had just come out and I was obsessed, especially because Rapunzel was the first princess to have freckles. My mom was able to personalize it when she ordered it from the Disney Store, and that made it all the more special! I continue to treasure it and whenever I look at it I remember that I've got a dream.

Sparkly Saturday: Her Universe Limited Edition Return of the Jedi Necklace

This week's Sparkly Saturday is the Limited Edition Return of the Jedi necklace by Her Universe. It was submitted by Heather (@Disneybigsis), who purchased it on her trip to Walt Disney World during Star Wars weekends last May. Since it was a limited edition item, it came with a certificate of authenticity that was also autographed by the creator of Her Universe, Ashley Eckstein, who is the voice of Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars: The Clone Wars. If she looks familiar to you, she also played Muffy on That's So Raven.

I am totally in love with the new limited edition shoes New Balance has created for runDisney. The designs (from left to right) are Minnie Mouse and Cinderella for women, then Goofy and Sorcerer Mickey for men. They will be debuted at the Walt Disney World Marathon Expo on January 8-12, and will only be available at runDisney events, such as the Tinkerbell Half Marathon Expo January 6-19. I'm crossing my fingers to get a pair of the Cinderella slippers, which ones do you like/want?

New Year, New Beginnings

I started this blog as a sophomore in high school and succeeded in posting little more than half a dozen posts. The idea was ready, but I wasn't. Life got busy, which was a great thing for this former wallflower. I took a long break from the blog (as you can see my last post was when Miley first cut her hair...) and social media in general. As a senior now,  the timing is finally right for Fortuosity Fashions. Since it's the dawn of 2014, I am relaunching my blog with new ideas and a fresh look.

The name Fortuosity comes from one of my favorite Disney movies, "The Happiest Millionaire," and the logo was inspired by the Fortuosity Shop on Main Street in Disneyland. Not only will I feature Disney related items on this site, but other geeky things I love such as Star Wars, Doctor Who, Psych, and The Walking Dead. Here's a preview of what's to come!

Sweet Sunday- Fan goodies that are totally fashionable! Food stylists have jobs for a reason, right?

Makeup Monday- Whether it's a product that will last an epic day storming a Disney park, a look more suitable for ComicCon, or just something inspired by a character, I'll be featuring it!

T-shirt Tuesday- Let's see your favorite fan tee!

Watch Wednesday- Franchises have the tendency to create awesome timepieces. Do you have one?

Thinking Thursday- I will be posting my opinions about what's going on in various fan universes, and your opinions of whatever you're a fan of as well!

Footwear Friday- Shoes you always take to a Disney park, fan shoes, or just shoes that make you feel good.

Sparkly Saturday- Highlighting fan jewelry/pins.

You can send me your submissions at fortuosityfashions@gmail.com. When submitting items be sure to include a snapshot as well as a description of the item/why you love it/story about it.  If you're submitting opinions for Thinking Thursday, please keep it clean. I can't wait to hear from you and I am ecstatic to be relaunching Fortuosity Fashions!

Happy New Year
