Splurge and Save: Tourist Attraction

Whenever Briam and I go to a theme park, Disney World mostly, I always like to wear something comfortable. I want to look nice, but if I'm going to be spending 10 hours walking around a park, you better believe that I will be comfortable. My favorite thing to wear while at theme parks is leggings. They're super easy to style and extremely comfortable. And, bonus, they dry quickly if you go on a water ride. Between the splurge and save looks, you save $581. That's more vacation time, more goodies to buy, a nicer hotel, and so much more! Why spend your money on clothes when you could spend it making memories? 

Splurge: Top - $248 Leggings - $256 Sandals - $180

Save: Top - $44 Leggings - $19 Sandals - $40

Total Savings: $581

Things I Love: Disney Tee Shirts

One very big thing that you should know about me is that I really love Disney. I'm not talking about the Disney Channel, even though I am guilty of watching it more often than a 22 year old should, I'm talking about the real Disney. I mostly associate the "real" Disney with Walt Disney World because it involves all of the beloved characters from the past! Mickey, Minnie, Cinderella, Snow White, and so many more! I was thrilled once they revamped Fantasy land and added more interactions with Belle and Ariel! When B and I went over Christmas, I was singing the entire time on Ariel's ride! 

One of the things I love about Disney's fashions is that they're beginning to make it more wearable. It no longer looks touristy or like something that would be cute if my grandma wore it. If I could, I would probably have an entire closet dedicated to Disney clothes, with a few princess gowns include! Here are my four favorite tee shirts from the Disney Store! 

I seriously LOVE #2 and #4! I'm strongly considering that B and I get them to wear the next time we go to Disney! 

You can purchase these and much more apparel and accessories at the Disney Store!

Which shirt is your favorite?

Do you love Disney as much as I do?

Basin Haul: All Natural Beauty Products

Recently, my doctor informed that I need to ditch all of my beauty products and switch to an all natural company. First of all, do you realize how shocked I was? I didn't want to throw away all of my favorite products! But after doing some research and having an extensive conversation with my doctor, I knew I had to do it. So how did I do it? Well, anything that was unopened or slightly used, I gave to my friends. (Who doesn't love free stuff?) And for the rest of it? B now uses it. His hair smells like cherry blossoms. 

Two companies that I found before I came across Basin were Dr. Bronner's and Avalon Organics. I found these brands at Target. I smelled every single products that each company had. I didn't care for any of them. And I'm sure both companies are amazing and many people use them, they just weren't for me. My hopes were a little crushed when I remembered that there was a store in Downtown Disney that sold beauty and bath products, Basin! After researching the brand further and telling my doctor about it, I found a winner! All Basin products are chemical free. They have "no paragons, alcohol, mineral oils, and are not tested on animals and are made in the USA." 

The best part? I was able to get 15% off my entire purchase because B had gotten us annual passes to Disney for Christmas! Sadly though, I can only get this discount if I purchase my products at the Basin located in Downtown Disney. But, this just adds another reason to go to Disney! 

Here are all the products I got at my latest trip to Basin! 

Love Hydrator: $14.99 

Love Moisturizing Soap: $13.99

I absolutely love both of these! I keep the lotion at my desk as a constant reminder to moisturize! Plenty of lotions have gone to waste because of the whole "out of sight, out of mind" dilemma. I keep the soap in our bathroom so B and I both use it! I love that the soap is a cleanser and a moisturizer in one! 

Good Hair Day Shampoo Bar: $7.99

Good Hair Day Conditioner Bar: $7.99

Basin had a deal going on, "Shampoo & Conditioner Bar Barrel", where you could mix and match four  shampoo and conditioner bars for $25. That's a savings of $6.96, which is almost the price of one bar! So I picked up two of each of the Good Hair Day bars. Each bar is supposed to last between 50 and 75 washes. 

Calamine Calming Soap: $6.99

Face Toner: $8.99

Face Lotion: $12.99

For the toner and the lotion, I got the type for Dry to Normal skin. I do have combination skin, but lately my skin has been slightly dry. 

Snowy Soap: $6.89 (Not sold online)

Caffeine Soap: $6.99

Queen For A Day Soap: $5.99

Black Oak Shaving Cream: $17.99

The snowy soap is part of their holiday collection. I guess it's only sold in-store. I actually bought the caffeine soap for B. I thought it would help him wake up in the mornings. I bought two of the Queen For A Day soaps! They smell so good and leave my skin feeling clean and soft! Now I know that this particular shaving cream is meant for a man, for his face, but I love it! It smells beyond amazing and my legs are so silky and smooth afterwards! 

Blush Solid Perfume: $9.99

I'm obsessed with this solid perfume! My biggest love about it? It's super travel friendly! You don;t have to worry about it leaking or breaking! I smelled all of the solid perfumes and this Blush scent was by far my favorite!
