Fashion advice for a day in the amusement park

When it comes to walking around an amusement park, you need just the right mix of style and versatility so you don't look obnoxious, but also don't wish you would have worn something more comfortable or appropriate. This weekend while I was in Orlando, we did a whole lot of walking around the parks at Disney World. Luckily I packed well because even in Florida during the winter, temps can hover in the low 40's until about 11am, so you can't just walk outside in shorts and a T-shirt and expect to not get cold. My parents warned me about this so I made sure to pack layerable clothing. This means not just shorts and I big puffy coat, but chosing many smaller clothing items to "stack" if you get cold and peel off if you get warm. For example, if it's a cool morning and you won't be back to the room to change but you know it will be warmer later in the day, try something like a long sleeve T-shirt, a pullover, shorts and sweatpants. You can take off the pullover and sweatpants when the temp rises and throw them in a backpack with all of your other stuff. Plus, they make great spur of the moment things to sit on when you can find a chair and want to sit on the ground. 

Next, good walking shoes are a must, there are no exceptions. It doesn't matter how cute your new heels are that's a 'NO'. Shoes that can be worn with socks a better because you can avoid blisters. You'll thank yourself for this later. Chose a pair that you know you've spent a good deal of time walking in already so you're not trying to break in a new pair the day of your vacation. I wore birks with socks for 90% or my trip because they are the most comfortable shoes I own.

And of course, if you check the for art and it says sunny, bring a hat, sunglasses and some good sunscreen that can be used on the face. If you stare in the sun all day you'll only end up with a killer headache so don't go there. Just save yourself from having to take the pain pills and put on the shades. 

Ok! Now you're an expert and ready to take on the amusement park in style and comfort!
