Matching shirts, give me some inspiration!

[Erin M]

We have 5 days in the park plus 2 days on DLH property at the end of November, My DD loves to be matchey and adorable and who am I to say no? I figure in a few years she will want nothing to do with looking like me, so I've been planning outfits. DH is not interested. He is no fun. I've got most everything worked out but I need a day or two still. I would love to see what you've worn or things you've been thinking about wearing.

So far in my theoretical suitcase:
1. Let's Do This Mickey shirts
2. Mini Mouse skirts with black t shirts and ears
3. Jolly Holiday t shirts - words in buffalo plaid print
4. One day of princess wear - going to BBB in the morning!

It sounds adorable so far! Especially love the mommy and me Minnie Mouse, I think I’m doing that for Halloween with our 10 month old!

I’m traveling with 3 reluctant teens, my dh who’s anti-matching and 2 adorable babies! This year I had different shirts made for each of us, all in black, but with different sayings in Disney font. So well match, but each have a shirt that reflects our own interests. I’ll see if I can post a few of the sayings...

The first one is me in my shirt, then the others are the sayings which are all done on black shirts for each of them I’m SO excited to get pics of everyone together!

Love it! I especially love the snack themed ones! I think I'll have to add that to my list. My DD has been saving money for churros. I haven't told her I'm willing to pay for them because she's taking it so seriously for a 5 yr old.

That's so cute! Can Mickey leave her an envelope with churro money on her pillow at the hotel? Maybe you can slip it on her pillow (have someone delay or distract her for a few minutes when you get to the room)?

We have done matching/coordinating shirts for our last several family trips. You can see them in my trip reports! (In my signature) Some we buy, some we craft. I’m not super crafty, but I’ll give it a swing for cute family Disney shirts!

This is an amazing idea! I had actually been trying to think of something little to do like this, but didn't want to pay the DLH to do something super extravagant. This is pretty much perfect. Thank you!

How adorable! My DH is firmly against matching so we don’t do family shirts. I however like to match with the kids. DD dresses up everyday in the parks so I often wear a matching princess shirt with her or a character shirt to match DS. She also loves to Disney bound. You could find some adorable matching outfits that way. Have you seen the Disney dresses? I’m not sure how small they go but they have adorable matching outfits, like as Mary Poppins. It would probably be easy to find your own versions too. She might be too young for The Nightmare Before Christmas but DD loved me being a Sally with her. That would be pretty easy to Disney bound if you put on the tights and gloves. The Disney costume I bought her was really well made. That could be fun if she ok with riding HM during the NBC overlay. Disney makes a simple Jack tuxedo shirt too. I really had to badger my DH to wear it to the MHP.

@julieheyer those are amazing! I need the paying one for my DH!

Also consider DIY ears. I saw lots of women wearing ears they had made with fake flowers attached. DD and I really loved them. I’ve bought her real ears but she doesn’t find them comfortable so I want to try this for our next trip.

I actually got her a dress from them for her BB appointment. She loves Ariel so I went with the blue dress like the one Ariel wears in the boat. It's the cutest! And not so huge and cumbersome she won't be able to walk around. Maybe I should Disney bound as Ursula that day? Or Sebastian

I'm going to look into making ears too! Great idea!
