As the sun sets over Cinderella Castle and Main Street U.S.A. begins to glow, Disney transforms into an entirely new atmosphere. This is Disney after dark and whether you're catching the fireworks, hopping to a dining reservation, or attending an after-hours event, your outfit deserves to rise to the occasion—without sacrificing comfort.A 1923 Main Street Style Guide for Disney Travelers who Love Disney at NightAt 1923 Main Street®, we believe that travel style should be elevated and that includes elevating your style for Disney nights. Here's how to create an effortlessly stylish, subtle Disney look for magical evenings in the parks.1. Master the Art of Layering for Evening ComfortDaytime Disney is all about breathable tees and sun-ready style. But once night falls, temperatures can dip—sometimes surprisingly so, depending on the time of year. Whether you're traveling in the balmy summer or during those cooler winter months, layering is your best friend.Warm Weather Option: Start with a buttery-soft graphic tee, such as one of the classics from our subtle Disney styles. These shirts breathe through the heat, but pair beautifully with a lightweight linen shirt or soft chambray button-up for when the sun sets. Tie it around your waist during the day for that casually put-together look.Cool Weather Option: In chillier seasons, transition seamlessly from daytime adventure to nighttime sparkle with a trademark 1923 Main Street fleece-lined sweatshirt or hoodies. Our original upscale designs bring Disney charm without the cartoon vibes, offering warmth and class in one perfect layer.2. Embrace Subtle Sparkle and Moody TonesNighttime Disney calls for a little extra something. The look for Disney at night should be elegant casual meets theme park chic.Consider incorporating subtle sparkle through accessories—think a starry crossbody bag or shimmer-accented Mickey ears in a deep midnight hue. Our tees and sweatshirts in moody tones like cardinal, navy and charcoal give your look that elevated feel without screaming tacky theme park.The goal? Let your love for Disney show without sacrificing style. With a 1923 Main Street shirt as your canvas, you're already ahead of the game.3. Style that Flows from Parks to DiningIt's not uncommon to go from taking the perfect castle photos at golden hour to a dinner reservation at one of Disney's signature restaurants as the sun sets. And with the right outfit, you don't need to run back to the resort.A fitted 1923 Main Street t-shirt tucked into a high-waisted skirt or chic shorts can look perfectly polished. Depending on where you're dining, you could even add a blazer or cropped jacket. Going somewhere where purc comfort is the priority? An elegant subtle Disney sweatshirt with tapered joggers or a maxi dress will instantly give you a layered, cozy-elegant look.Our pieces are intentionally designed to blur the line between theme park apparel and travel-ready fashion—so you can dine at Topolino's or Napa Rose while feeling both magical and modern.4. Let 1923 Main Street® Subtle Disney Apparel Be Your FoundationOur subtle enchanting designs are made for moments like these. Unlike loud, kitschy park merch, our clothing is designed to elevate your Disney experience while keeping the magic just beneath the surface.Our monorail design, for instance, nod to the iconic transportation system without screaming it. It's a conversation starter at any Disney bar or lounge and a stylish choice for those after-dark park selfies. Every 1923 Main Street piece is made to move with you from sunrise to starlight.5. Accessorize with IntentionAccessories are where nighttime looks shine. For evening events like themed parties or Disney After Hours go for any of the following:Themed jewelry in gold or silver tones—castle pendants, subtle mouse ears, or star motifs.Stylish ears or headbands in velvet or metallics.Sleek crossbody bags with hidden Disney touches.Classic sneakers or sandals in coordinating tones that keep you park-hopping in style.These small additions elevate your outfit without overwhelming it. They pair perfectly with the subtle storytelling found in every 1923 Main Street subtle Disney design.From Day to Night, Magic in Every StitchDisney after dark is a special kind of magic and your outfit should reflect that. With thoughtful layering, moody tones and subtle accessories, you can transform your look from daytime adventurer to nighttime dreamer in just a few minutes.At 1923 Main Street, our pieces are designed to travel with you—not just through the parks, but through every moment that matters. So when the castle lights shimmer and the fireworks fill the sky, you'll be ready—not just for the photos, but for the feeling you know and love.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

We're throwing on our festive gear and stepping into the holiday spotlight to answer one big question—which Disney after-hours party is the best of the season? Is it the spooky fun of Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, the cozy charm of Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, or the retro glitz of Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios?We're going head-to-head-to-head as we break these parties down across multiple categories—everything from entertainment and character sightings to food, vibes, crowd levels, and overall value. We're each casting our votes in every round, sharing our thoughts (and probably disagreeing a few times), and by the end, we're crowning our pick for the top Disney holiday party of the year.If we're being honest, we know some of you are debating which one to attend—and some of you are just planning to hit all three.

I'm joined by a very special guest—my daughter Kailyn—as we recap a whirlwind Disney weekend full of sun, snacks, and some serious theme park hustle.Kailyn hadn't stepped foot in the 4 Walt Disney World parks since Thanksgiving of 2023—and before that, Christmas 2022. But rewind a bit further, and she was basically raised at Disney. As a longtime Annual Passholder, she spent years visiting once or twice a month with us, until both kids eventually hit that wall a lot of families know all too well: Disney burnout. So they let their passes go, took a step back… and just like that, a new chapter began.But this past weekend, we opened the book again. On Thursday, it was off to Typhoon Lagoon for a splash-filled day of water slides, waves, and lazy rivers. Then we cleaned up and headed to Disney Springs for shopping and dinner at Wailulu Bar & Grill. (Spoiler: we'll be talking about poke bowls, fish, and tattoos.)And then came Friday—a 16-hour park day that took us to EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom and packed in 20 attractions. We're talking thrill rides, strategy, food fuel, and some genuine moments of rediscovering the magic.You'll hear Kailyn's honest take on what it was like coming back after nearly two years away, how the parks felt different, and what moments reminded her why she used to love it in the first place.This is a special one for us—a dad-daughter Disney trip with laughs, nostalgia, and a whole lot of fun.MEI-Travel – Expertise.

If you like to take travel style photos on vacation, then half the fun of travel is planning what you're going to wear. And while we love a good outfit-of-the-day #OOTD selfie in front of the Eiffel Tower or Cinderella Castle, there's something even better than scattered snaps: a thoughtfully curated travel lookbook. It's part mood board, part memory keeper and part style savior—and when done right, it's as functional as it is fashionable.Whether you're island-hopping in Greece or road-tripping on Route 66, here's how to turn your travel outfits into a wearable lookbook that makes packing easier, boosts your style confidence, and levels up your Instagram social game.Why a Travel Lookbook Helps with Packing and StylePacking for a trip can be as overwhelming as choosing your airplane seat. To help make the process a little easier (and hopefully more fun), a travel lookbook is your cheat sheet. When you plan your outfits ahead of time, you avoid overpacking, underdressing, or ending up with five pairs of pants and zero tops that match.A lookbook forces you to think in terms of outfits, not items, so everything in your suitcase pulls its weight. You'll feel more put together, and you won't waste precious vacation time figuring out what to wear. Note: If you're wondering how a lookbook differs from a capsule wardrobe, read this post.If you create pre-trip look book, you'll never again be asking yourself “why did I pack this?”Start with a Mood Board (Pinterest is Your Best Friend)Before you even open your suitcase, create a visual game plan. Pinterest is the MVP here. Start a board for your trip and pin anything that feels right—colors, landscapes, street style and of course, pieces from the 1923 Main Street® collection that reflect your destination's vibe.Heading to Italy? Think neutral tones with a pop of lemon. Bali? Light, breathable layers and earthy textures. A Canadian Rockies getaway? Cozy layers, vintage washes, and a splash of outdoorsy charm A Walt Disney World vacation? Subtle Disney style is your friend. Your mood board becomes a visual style compass. It helps you stay cohesive, focused and inspired when building your lookbook. It's also a lot more fun to scroll for ideas and themes online that to look aimlessly through your closet.Documenting Outfits as Part of the Travel ExperienceFor a lot of travelers, outfits are a key part of the journey. Just like that amazing pastry you had in Paris or the hiking trail you conquered in Utah, your travel wardrobe tells a story. So make sure that you set yourself up to capture it well.Snap a quick mirror shot before heading out, get a street-style pic mid-day, or ask your travel buddy for a few candids. You don't need a professional shoot—natural moments look much better almost every time.To level up your vacation outfit game, use your phone's photo album or an app like Stylebook to save outfit photos and notes (weather, comfort level, what you'd tweak next time). This turns your lookbook into a functional archive for future trips.Tag, Post, Repeat: Boosting Social Engagement with Your LookbookSharing your lookbook on social media isn't just for the ‘gram—it's a way to connect with fellow travelers, inspire future trips and grow your personal brand with truly unique content (yes, even if it's just for fun).To get the most from your lookbook style, mix up your posts. Try a carousel of outfits, make a Reel of your daily looks, or do a “what I packed vs. what I wore” TikTok.Every time you post, you're not just showing off your look—you're contributing to a global style story. And if there's one thing that people love to like on social media, it's travel outfits.Make It Personal, Make It PracticalCreating a travel lookbook isn't about being perfect or matching every trend. It's about feeling confident, having fun and making memories—in style. Whether you're a visual planner or a spontaneous packer, a little forethought goes a long way.So next time you're prepping for a trip, think beyond the selfie. Start a mood board, build your looks around your favorite 1923 Main Street staples, and create a travel lookbook that's not just wearable—but shareable, memorable and 100% you.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

In this rewind episode of the Main Street Magic Podcast, we're going back to one of our Disney Prep Series favorites—Disney's water parks!We originally recorded this episode when only one park was open, so you may hear us mention that throughout the show. But don't worry—both Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach are now open and ready for you to splash into some serious fun!We're sharing the history, theming, fun facts, pricing, and our best tips and tricks to help you make the most of your water park day.

We're taking you along on a whirlwind couple of days at Walt Disney World—complete with friends, food, drinks, and a few unexpected twists (including a surprise snake sighting near the Skyliner… yep, that happened).We kicked things off with snacks and sips at Bar Riva to see some Cast Member friends alongside our good friends Lucie and Caleb, and the fun just kept rolling from there. We did a little shopping in Pandora (yes, we bought rings), used an Individual Lightning Lane for Cosmic Rewind, and bounced around resorts chasing dinner plans from California Grill to Steakhouse 71 to Three Bridges—where we finally found our perfect Plan C, great food, and some awesome cast member interactions.We also squeezed in some magic at Magic Kingdom to ride Haunted Mansion, placed a special hat embroidery order, and spent a rainy afternoon at Disney Springs catching up, indulging in Salt & Straw, and hiding out at Jock Lindsey's. The trip wrapped up with poolside snacks at Siestas, an evening at Dahlia Lounge, and a final stop at Jeff's Bagels on the way home—because you know we weren't leaving without breakfast handled.It was a trip full of laughs, detours, and Disney magic, and we can't wait to share it with you.MEI-Travel – Expertise.

Whether you're jetting off to a sunny beach in the Caribbean, exploring the misty cliffs of Ireland, or exploring the rugged Pacific Northwest coastline, coastal travel style is a category all its own. Not all Coasts are Tropical, How to Match Your Coastal Style to Your DestinationAt 1923 Main Street®, we know that packing for the coast isn't just about tossing in a swimsuit and calling it a day. It's about curating a wardrobe that reflects your destination's climate, culture and vibe—without sacrificing comfort or style.Let's break it down: how coastal style differs from your typical city vacation (or even a Disney getaway), and how to build your perfect shoreline look, from fabrics and colors to layering pieces and graphic tees.City vs. Coast: It's a Vibe ShiftWhen you're packing for a city trip or a Disney vacation, you're often focused on versatility, movement and weather changes over long walking days. Maybe denim, athleisure and structured pieces come to mind so you can layer for days exploring art museums, park hopping, or indulging in foodie adventures.But when it comes to the coast, your suitcase needs to shift gears.Coastal travel style is about ease, texture and embracing the natural environment around you. Whether it's breezy and balmy or misty and moody, coastal destinations call for styles that move with the wind and echo the tones of the sea, sand or cliffs. The Staples of Coastal Travel Style1. Light, Breathable FabricsTropical coasts (like the Caribbean or Florida Keys): For warm weather tropical coasts, linen shirts, cotton sundresses, gauzy kaftans and soft-wash t-shirts are all great options. You want breathability and pieces that look better a little rumpled from the sandy beach, sea breeze or salty air.Cooler coasts (like the Pacific Northwest or the Irish coastline): Layering becomes key in these types of environments. Look for organic cottons, waffle-knit thermals and cozy hoodies. Lightweight waterproof jackets are also a must-have, or at least a consideration depending on where and when you're traveling.2. Soft, Coastal ColorsCoastal destinations are nature's own neutral color palette. Your wardrobe should reflect the coastal colors of your region. Consider the following:Beachy tropical coasts: Go for whites, sands, sea-glass blues, coral and palm green.Northern or rustic coastlines: Think misty greys, deep ocean navy, sage, foggy lavender and stormy teal.Our 1923 Main Street® coastal collection of graphic tees and hoodies often draws from these palettes, with colors designed to complement ocean horizons and shoreline sunsets of all shapes and sizes.3. Comfortable LayersWeather on the coast (any coast) can change with the wind (and often does). Be prepared for the inevitable and always bring:A light sweatshirt or hoodie (especially one of our super-soft, travel-ready 1923 Main Street® designs)A long-sleeve tee for layering on cooler morningsA light scarf or wrap that can double as a beach blanket or an impromptu windbreakerDestination-Specific Coastal StyleTropical or Warm Weather Beaches For warm weather beaches, like the Bahamas, Florida, California, Maui, the South of France and so on, consider the following must-haves.Pack: Swimwear, linen cover-ups, wide-brim hats, flip flops or espadrillesStyle tip: Go with relaxed fits and graphic t-shirts with a vintage surf vibe or palm-print accents.Pacific Northwest Whether it's the Oregon Coast or Vancouver Island, you'll want to pack for a whole different style of coastline.Pack: Waterproof hiking boots, thermal leggings, cozy fleece-lined hoodies and even knit hats, in some casesStyle tip: Layer a classic 1923 Main Street® hoodie over a graphic tee for coastal walks or campfire eveningsUK or Scandinavian CoastlinesThe natural beauty and rugged terrain of these northern coasts beg for a little unique style of their own. Consider the following:Pack: A windproof trench or raincoat, wool socks, breathable base layers and sturdy walking shoesStyle tip: Moody coastal vibes are perfect for darker-toned sweatshirts and subtle, literary-inspired travel graphicsOne Last Pro Tip: Dress with the Daydream in MindCoastal vacations aren't just a break from the norm—they're a mood. So your wardrobe should feel like vacation, even if you're just grabbing coffee before a morning paddle or reading by the dunes.That's why our 1923 Main Street® travel-themed shirts and sweatshirts are made to carry the feeling of travel with you, from beachside to boardwalk. Designed with premium, lightweight fabrics and custom graphics inspired by wanderlust, they're just as perfect for morning flights as they are for sunrise or sunset strolls.Wherever your next coastal adventure takes you, let your style flow with the tides—effortless, elevated and endlessly inspired by the shoreline.Check out our latest coastal-inspired travel gear to bring that breezy vibe wherever you go.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

We're stepping outside the Disney bubble and heading deep into the heart of Texas for an unforgettable trip to Austin. That's right—we swapped MagicBands for cowboy boots and spent the weekend soaking up everything Austin has to offer, from mouthwatering food to meaningful moments.We're talking Michelin-starred barbecue brisket that melts in your mouth, spicy chicken from a food truck named Spicy Boys, an incredible cowgirl hat experience at Kendra Scott's Yellow Rose boutique, and a dive bar that turned out to be surprisingly sober-friendly. Plus, opening up about a powerful personal milestone—reaching 475 days of sobriety—and how a three-hour Blue October concert helped finally deliver the clarity.Whether it's floating in freezing cold Barton Springs, indulging in gourmet ice cream, or spotting a puppy in an Uber, this was a weekend filled with unexpected joy, emotional growth, and plenty of laughter. So if you're looking for an inspiring, delicious, and downright weird adventure beyond the theme parks, grab your hat (and maybe a churro for comfort) and come along for the ride!MEI-Travel – Expertise.

Bold prints, bright colors and character-covered tees once dominated the Disney Parks style scene. But a new wave of fashion-forward Disney fans is shifting the narrative — and it's all about minimalism. The Art of Subtle Disney Shirts and StyleIn the world of Disney fashion, louder used to mean better. This is the era of subtle Disney style, where quiet nods to beloved characters and stories speak louder than the loudest graphic tee. At the forefront of this movement is 1923 Main Street®, the original travel style brand redefining what it means to dress for Disney travel and beyond.Why Subtlety is StylishThere's a reason minimalist fashion has remained timeless: it's sophisticated, versatile and allows personal expression without overwhelming the senses. Subtle Disney fashion borrows this same elegance — offering a way to wear your fandom with class and creativity. Instead of flashy prints, think sleek typography, clean lines and abstract references that spark conversation, not cartoons. The minimalist approach resonates especially with adult Disney travelers who want to celebrate their passion for Disney in a way that's elevated, travel-ready and style-conscious.The Rise of Minimalist Disney FashionAs fashion evolves and the Disney audience grows, so do the ways fans express their style. The rise of minimalist Disney fashion reflects a cultural shift toward meaningful, design-led clothing. People want wearable reminders of the magic that fit seamlessly into their everyday wardrobes — not just their park days. This is subtle Disney style at its finest1923 Main Street was an innovator of subtle Disney style and one of the first brands to champion this approach. Designing understated Disney shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies with original, clever references that only true fans recognize was an early hallmark of the 1923 Main Street brand. These aren't just clothes — they're conversation starters and memory-keepers, crafted with intention.Styling Low-Key Disney Looks at the ParksCreating a travel-ready look with subtle Disney pieces is easier than ever, especially when starting with the right foundation. A text-based or abstract reference tee from 1923 Main Street can be the perfect starting point. Whether it's a nod to a favorite princess, Disney travel tip or hidden detail only Disney regulars would catch, these designs pair beautifully with smart travel staples:Layer a minimalist sweatshirt over a neutral midi dress for a chic, effortless park-to-dinner look.Pair an abstract subtle Disney tee with high-rise shorts or linen pants and add a lightweight denim jacket for cooler evenings.Tie a 1923 Main Street hoodie around your waist during warm days — it's practical, comfortable, and keeps your subtle Disney look consistent. Plus, it's ready to go when the sun goes down.Accessories Make the MagicMinimalist Disney style doesn't mean skipping the fun — it just means choosing pieces with intention. A pair of mouse-inspired stud earrings, a tone-on-tone Disney backpack, or a hat with a discreet reference adds character without clutter. Scarves, neutral sunglasses and sleek sneakers (subtle Disney or not) round out the look while keeping it versatile for long park days.Layering is key here. Mix textures — soft cotton, woven straw, lightweight knits — and let your subtle Disney top take the spotlight. Whether you're park-hopping, rope dropping or enjoying a Disney resort brunch, you'll feel stylish without screaming Disney “tourist.”1923 Main Street®: The Original Brand in Subtle Disney Style1923 Main Street isn't following a trend — it's leading a movement. Each 1923 Main Street design is an original creation, born from deep Disney knowledge and a passion for thoughtful fashion. The brand's mission is simple: to make Disney style more sophisticated, more wearable and more personal.By blending storytelling with clean design, 1923 Main Street proves that Disney inspired fashion doesn't need to shout to be seen. Whether you're a seasoned park-goer or a traveler bringing a little magic into the everyday, there's power in keeping it subtle.Minimalist Disney fashion is more than a look — it's a mindset. It's for those who carry the magic quietly, proudly and stylishly wherever they go.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

We're taking a delicious deep dive into the snack scene at Disney Springs to determine which treats are truly worth your time, money, and appetite. With so many tempting options, we're breaking them down by taste, value, portion size, and uniqueness to see which ones deserve a resounding “Eat it!” and which you may want to “Beat it!”We kick things off at Swirls on the Water with the DOLE Whip Flight—a $7.99 trio that serves up a sampler-sized portion of Disney's most iconic soft-serve in playful, unique swirls like banana and salted caramel or mint chocolate, all with fun toppings. Then we hit the heavyweight champion of cookies at Gideon's Bakehouse, where the limited-time White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookie clocks in at nearly half a pound and over 24 hours of prep time, offering rich flavor and chewy-crispy contrast.From there, it's on to Sprinkles for a fresh cupcake delivered from their famous ATM, and then we hop over to The Daily Poutine, where $10.49 gets you a hot, hearty portion of Canadian-style comfort food—fries, gravy, and cheddar curds that are perfect for sharing. Summer House offers up a gooey cookie bar that's just as pretty as it is tasty, while Chicken Guy delivers classic tenders with a sauce-sampling twist that brings the flavor (and a bit of Food Network flair).We wrap with Homecomin's beloved Momma's Mac and Cheese, Morimoto Asia's sticky-sweet spare ribs, Everglazed's pillowy doughnuts, and the wildly inventive small-batch ice creams from Salt & Straw—think strawberry balsamic or honey lavender atop a crisp waffle cone.Whether you're strolling the Springs for a quick bite or plotting a full-on snack crawl, this episode is your go-to guide for the tastiest (and most interesting) stops along the way.MEI-Travel – Expertise.

We're diving into an important and often overlooked topic—phobias and sensory sensitivities in the parks.With as many as 12.5% of adults and nearly 1 in 5 adolescents experiencing specific phobias in their lifetime, it's essential to help all guests feel confident and informed when planning their Disney experience. From fear of heights and darkness to anxiety in enclosed spaces or sensory-heavy environments, we're breaking down the rides and experiences that could be overwhelming—and what to do about it.We'll walk you through the attractions most likely to trigger phobias like claustrophobia, nyctophobia, and automatonophobia, and provide practical tools for navigating those challenges.We also include tips for using DAS (Disability Access Service), rider switch, and identifying quiet spaces throughout the parks when needed. Plus, we share a list of sensory-friendly alternatives so everyone in your party can find their magic, no matter their comfort level. Whether you're planning your first trip or helping someone else prepare, this episode is here to help you create a trip full of joy, confidence, and understanding.MEI-Travel – Expertise. Ease.

Unscripted travel moments don't only offer the best travel memories, but unscripted travel also creates great outfit styles as a result.Leave Room in Your Bag — and Your Plans — for AdventureThere's something undeniably magical about boarding a train with no fixed destination. Or veering off the mapped-out route because a crooked sign pointed toward something called "The Devil's Bathtub" or "Whispering Rocks." These are the moments that stay with us — the ones that weren't booked through an app, recommended by a thousand blogs as “unique” (clearly not), or squeezed into an itinerary.Let the Road Write the Story. You Just Show Up in Style.At 1923 Main Street®, we believe in the beauty of unscripted travel. Because while a little planning is smart (we're not suggesting you forget your passport), leaving space for the unexpected opens the door to the best kind of stories — the kind that can't be Googled.Wouldn't you love to be among the first to share a unique story?The Best Stories Aren't on the ItineraryAsk any traveler to tell you their favorite travel memory, and chances are, it won't be the hotel buffet or the all-inclusive pre-package fun. It will be that time they got caught in a street parade in a city they didn't even mean to visit. Or when a local pointed them to a hidden walkway that led to a picture-perfect uncrowded beach, a tiny taverna, or a rooftop bar that no guidebook mentioned.When you leave space in your schedule, you make room for discovery. And discovery is the heart of real travel — not vacation. It's raw, sometimes messy, but always unforgettable.Travel Style That Roams as Freely as You DoSpontaneous travel demands clothing that works just as hard as your spirit of adventure. You don't need to dress like a walking checklist of tourist clichés. (Please don't.) You need gear that moves with you, tells your story and doesn't scream: “I'm new here!”That's why our designs at 1923 Main Street® — especially our Unscripted line — speak to the soul of the traveler, not the schedule. They're carefully created for those who'd rather follow a back road than a travel app. With subtle, inward-facing designs inspired by the magic of discovery, you'll look like you belong wherever you end up. Or at least, you won't look like you definitely don't belong. And that is by design at 1923 Main Street®, because all of our original creations are based on experiences and this philosophy.Our pieces aren't just bold in statement — they're bold in versatility. Toss one of our graphic hoodies into your bag, and you're ready for chilly train rides, windy cliff tops, or impromptu dinners under string lights in a tucked-away courtyard.Planning a wardrobe for unplanned travel is different (and more fun) than planning your outfits for a tightly controlled itinerary. It's going to force you to be more creative, more flexible with your choices and – likely – better styled overall.A Little Planning Goes a Long Way When You Travel — the Rest is Pure MagicWhat exactly do we mean by unplanned travel? Unplanned travel doesn't mean no planning at all. It's obviously important to most people to have a starting point and a loose agenda. Let's be real. You'll want to book your resort hotel and perhaps a few spots to visit and places to eat. But leave the rest open. It's in those undefined spaces — the cafés you stumble into, the trails you didn't mean to hike — where the real magic happens.And when you look back, years later, it'll be the photo where your shoes are muddy, your sweatshirt a little wrinkled and your smile completely real that brings it all flooding back. That's the magic of wearing the adventure.So pack light. Roam Freely. Wear Boldly. And leave some room for the road to surprise you.Because the best journeys — and the best versions of ourselves — are never fully planned.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

Whether you're a fan of the timeless classics or drawn to bold villain vibes, the iconic Disney characters we all know and love offer more than entertainment—they offer serious style inspiration. From Mickey Mouse to Maleficent, their looks are instantly recognizable, full of personality and perfect for inspiring your everyday wardrobe.Inspiration to Style an Outfit for Your Disney VacationHere's how to tap into those signature styles—without going full cosplay—and create effortless, character-inspired looks with graphic tees, sweatshirts and hoodies that reflect the spirit of Disney.Signature Style Elements Worth NotingEvery Disney character has their thing. Mickey's red shorts, yellow shoes and classic ears. Minnie's polka dots and bows. Donald's nautical vibes. Each member of the Fab Five has a look that's uniquely theirs and it's all about color, accessories and attitude. These signature elements are what make them iconic—and you can channel that without dressing head to toe like them.Take Minnie Mouse: her signature red-and-white polka dots are unmistakable, and her love of bows gives off playful femininity. A sweatshirt in red or black with a subtle bow detail or polka-dot pattern nods to her style without being literal.Mickey Mouse is a masterclass in minimalism—black, red, yellow. That's it. A tee or hoodie in this palette instantly reads as Mickey-inspired, especially with vintage graphics or modern line-art versions of the character.Character-Inspired Color PalettesOne of the easiest ways to bring Disney style into your wardrobe is through color. Each character has a color story:Ariel: Seafoam green, lavender, coralBelle: Golden yellow, rose redElsa: Ice blue, silver, whiteMaleficent: Black, purple, neon greenUrsula: Deep violet, black, seafoamGoofy: Orange, green, blackDaisy Duck: Soft lavender, white, pinkOur collection at 1923 Main Street includes several pieces that subtly echo these palettes, making it easy to wear your favorite character's vibe without a costume. A pastel hoodie in Elsa's hues or a dark purple tee inspired by Ursula brings Disney style into your everyday look.Graphic Tees and Hoodies that Reflect Disney VibesYou don't have to shout “Disney fan” to show your love. Many of our best-selling tees and hoodies feature clean designs, clever nods, or vintage-style prints that tap into a character's essence without being over-the-top. For fans of Disney Villains, bold typography and moodier colorways are the way to go. Our villain-inspired designs embrace attitude and elegance—perfect for adding a bit of edge to your outfit while still staying in the Disney realm.How to Build a Character-Inspired Capsule LookThink of Disney character style the same way you'd build a capsule wardrobe: Start with a key piece, then layer in supporting elements.For example:Minnie-Inspired Look: A black graphic tee with a minimalist bow design, red high-waisted pants, white sneakers and polka-dot accessories.Mickey-Inspired Look: A red hoodie with a vintage Mickey-inspired print, black joggers and yellow sneakers.Belle-Inspired Look: A golden sweatshirt paired with rose-accented jewelry and denim for a soft, romantic vibe.Villains Look (Maleficent or Ursula): A black hoodie with bold green or violet accents, dark jeans and statement earrings.Mix and match based on your personal style—you can go subtle Disney style or a bit more bold, depending on the day.Everyday Disney Style, Your WayDisney bounding might be the gold standard for park outfits, but when it comes to everyday wear, we're all about effortless character inspiration. Whether you're cozying up in a hoodie that channels Mickey's bold color scheme, or layering a tee that hints at Ariel's sea-swept palette, there are countless ways to infuse your look with that timeless Disney spirit.At 1923 Main Street, we create pieces that celebrate the characters you love—designed for daily life, not just the parks. Because when you wear what makes you happy, you carry a little bit of Disney magic wherever you go.Want to explore the full range?

There's something magical about stepping into the unknown, suitcase in hand and curiosity leading the way. But ask yourself this the next time you pack your bags: Are you a traveler… or a vacationer?Traveling and vacationing aren't the same, so which one is you?It's not about right or wrong. It's about why you go and how you go.The Vacationer: Comfort, Convenience and Checked BoxesVacationers crave rest—and who can blame them? They've earned that all-inclusive escape. Their plans are polished: the resort booked, excursions mapped out, every detail wrapped in a tidy bow. They're here to relax, recharge, and maybe grab a few Instagram-worthy shots while following the path most traveled. Or maybe the vacation is a mission to do as much as possible according to plan.Either way, there's a certain ease in that kind of trip. Predictability. Familiarity. But there's also something… missing. That spark of discovery. That thrill of being surprised by a place. That connection to culture and community that doesn't always fit inside a brochure.The Traveler: Curious, Open and Eager to DiscoverTravelers take the road less photographed. They don't just want to see a place—they want to feel it. They linger in local cafés, talk to strangers, or take a wrong turn down an alleyway in an old European town just to see what's there. They don't mind the imperfect hotel room or the language barrier. In fact, they welcome it. Traveler's are often lost by design, because it means they're doing it right.To the traveler, every destination is a chance to grow. Every moment is part of a bigger story. And sometimes, the best adventures begin when the plan goes out the window.So… Which Are You?Take the quiz and find out.Do you stick to the itinerary—or stray from the script?Do you leave with a suntan—or a story?Do you chase rest—or revelation?The following 10 questions will tell your travel story.The 1923 Main Street Traveler or Vacationer QuizAnswer YES or NO to the following 10 questions. Keep track of your yes answers.Do you prefer planning the bare minimum so you can explore freely?Have you ever skipped a famous tourist site in favor of a local recommendation?Do you enjoy getting a little lost in a new city or wandering without a set agenda?Would you rather eat at a hidden neighborhood café than a popular chain?Do you love learning local customs or picking up a few words of the language?Have you ever changed your plans mid-trip just because something interesting came up?Do you travel to connect with people and culture—not just to unwind?Would you trade a five-star resort for a locally run guesthouse with character?Are you okay with a bit of discomfort if it means having a more authentic experience?Do you feel most alive when you're somewhere unfamiliar?Your Results:0–3 YES Answers: You're more of a Vacationer—and there's nothing wrong with that! You travel to relax, recharge, and take in the sights with comfort and ease. Just don't forget to occasionally stray from the itinerary… magic often lives outside the guidebook.4–7 YES Answers: You're a Hybrid Explorer. You like a balance: a comfy bed and a structured plan, but with room for curiosity. You're open to adventure, especially when it fits into the day's schedule. A little more freedom and spontaneity could turn your trip into a deeper story.8–10 YES Answers: You're a True Traveler. You live for the moments that can't be booked in advance. You seek connection over convenience and discovery over direction. Every journey is a chance to learn, grow, and get beautifully lost. You're one of us.So, What Does It All Mean?If you find yourself craving the soul of a destination, not just its surface… if you believe the real journey begins once you've left the crowds behind… then you're not just on vacation.You're a traveler, and you're part of the 1923 Main Street story. Or maybe you're the hybrid, someone who likes a little of both depending on your destination.Of course, our travel t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies look great and feel great whether you're traveling or on vacation, because the soul of travel is always be infused into every thread of 1923 Main Street travel apparel.At 1923 Main Street, We Design for the WanderersEvery graphic tee, sweatshirt and hoodie that we create is a tribute to those who roam with purpose. Who crave culture over convenience. Who aren't afraid to get a little lost on the way to finding something unforgettable.Because to us, travel isn't a checklist—it's a way of being. A mindset. A story unfolding.So, wherever your journey leads, wear something that reminds you why you go.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies, dresses, swimwear and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

Whether it's a quick slice in the middle of a busy day, or a sit-down experience that satisfies every craving, we'll debate what makes each spot worth visiting—and where you might want to pass.So if you're craving that cheesy, saucy goodness on your next Disney trip, this episode serves up our hot takes in real time, crust and all.

Summer can be a great time to vacation in Orlando, but visiting during July and August has some key differences that will impact what you pack and what you wear.We Bust the Myths About What You Really Need to Bring and Advice to IgnoreFor starters, Orlando summers are hot, humid and often wet. Afternoon thunderstorms are a near-daily occurrence, and temperatures hover in the high 80s to mid-90s (°F) and sometimes top 100°F. Add in the Florida humidity and you can expect to experience heat like you've never felt before.Still, summer vacation in Orlando can be fun and has a few benefits, as long as you're aware of the weather and prepare for it. So how do you stay cool, dry, and comfortable while still enjoying your vacation? Here's your essential Orlando summer packing guide:Summer Clothing for Orlando: Think Light, Breathable and Fast-Drying1. Lightweight T-Shirts and Tops When it comes to travel shirts and t-shirts, choose lightweight, moisture-wicking materials like performance blends or soft cotton. Avoid anything heavy or clingy. Thick cotton tees can get soggy quickly in the humidity or during a daily afternoon downpour.Tip: Be sure to plan your wardrobe so that you can swap out a shirt if you need to change midday after rain or sweat.2. Quick-Dry Shorts or Skorts The top pick here is athletic or casual shorts made from fast-drying and lightweight materials.   These types of shorts are more practical than denim or heavy canvas shorts, both of which hold moisture and can feel heavy and uncomfortable. Skorts are also a great option for women who want a mix of comfort and coverage.3. Comfortable Footwear You'll be walking a lot, especially in theme parks. Go for breathable sneakers or well-ventilated walking sandals with good support. Also, shoes that dry quickly after a downpour are great for summer vacations in Orlando. There are also a growing number of waterproof running shoes that are perfect for summer in Florida. Tip: Avoid flip-flops unless you're heading to the pool or water park. If you want to wear sandals, make sure they're made for long walking days and can handle getting wet.4. Lightweight Rain Jacket or Poncho: Yes or No? Afternoon thunderstorms roll in daily like clockwork in the summer.   If you're a poncho person, a compact rain poncho or a lightweight, breathable rain jacket will save you from getting drenched—and cool down drafts from intense indoor A/Cs. However, these plastic wraps can also make you hot sticky and uncomfortable in the oppressive Orlando summer humidity.   Instead, we recommend a super small travel size umbrella as a better option, the kind that fold to fit in the palm of your hand. Remember, you'll dry quickly if you don't mind a little summer drenching. We find this preferable to wrapping ourselves in plastic and cooking in the Florida heat.5. Sun Protection Gear For the record, sun protection is always something to keep in mind. Consider the following when you pack for your Orlando summer vacation:Wide-brimmed hat or baseball capUV-blocking sunglassesSwimsuits (bring more than one)Cover-ups for pool daysOrlando Summer Heat Accessories: Do You Really Need These?You'll often see these items recommended, but it is really worth lugging around extra gear? We don't regurgitate the same old stale advice. Here are the straight yes or no answers.1. Refillable Water Bottle (No) Staying hydrated is key in the Florida heat. An insulated refillable water bottle can keep your drink cold all day. However, many theme parks have free refill stations and you can also get free ice water at any time from any quick service restaurant at Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando. So, no, we never bring a refillable water bottle, but you might want to lug one around.2. Sunscreen (Yes) Choose water- and sweat-resistant SPF 30 or higher. Reapply every couple of hours, especially if you're outside all day. 3. Small Daypack or Sling Bag (Yes)While we recommend carrying around the least possible amount of stuff, if you do have a few things, then these small bags are perfect for carrying your rain gear, water, sunscreen and snacks. Look for a water-resistant option or bring a plastic bag to protect electronics when it rains.4. Portable Fan or Cooling Towel (No)Battery-powered fans or cooling towels are often recommended while waiting in lines or walking around midday. Sure, theme parks and other stores want you to buy this stuff, but this kind of extra stuff is really not necessary. A refreshing stop in the A/C with an ice water goes a lot further than a tiny little battery fan that you have to carry around. Remember, you're not traveling to the middle of a remote desert, so don't pack like you are (avoid the tired old repeated hype of so many "expert" travel blogs). There are plenty of better ways to stay cool (including fun theme park mister cooling stations). As far as cooling towels go, the truth is that any moistened towel or facecloth will do the exact same thing. Cooling towels marketed that way are nothing special (it's all marketing). Any towel will give you the cooling effect and this method will cool you down if you are overheated. But don't spend money on something marketed as a cooling towel. Grab a face cloth from the hotel room and you're good to go.5. Ziplock Bags or Waterproof Pouches (Maybe)These can be useful for keeping electronics or important documents safe when those summer storms hit and even for water rides where you risk getting splashed.What Not to PackHeavy clothing – You won't wear it and it takes up bag space.Heels or fashion shoes – Choose comfort over style, especially in the summer.Thick denim jeans – Too hot and slow to dry. Not a summer essential in Orlando.Big Umbrellas – Often impractical in busy parks; we recommend a tiny palm size version.Final Thoughts on Packing for an Orlando Summer VacationPacking smart for an Orlando summer vacation is all about staying cool, dry and comfortable.Choose breathable fabrics, prepare for both heat and rain and don't forget the sunscreen. With the right gear, you can focus less on discomfort and more on making magical memories.Bonus Tip: If you're planning theme park days, pack a change of socks and stash them in your bag. Wet socks + walking = guaranteed blisters. Plus all onsite hotels at Walt Disney World have laundry, so dry those wet clothes or shoes if you need to.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies, dresses, swimwear and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X,

If you're a fashionista when you travel, there's a certain magic and charm that comes with dressing for the city you're exploring—not to try to fully blend in, but to become part of the story told by each destination. How to dress for a trip to New York, LA, Paris, London and Rome. If You Like to Bring Outfits on Vacation, Here's How to Do ItAt 1923 Main Street®, we believe your clothes should say as much about your journey as your photos do. Whether you're wandering through the lively streets of New York City, café-hopping in Paris, or soaking up the west coast vibes of LA, we've got you covered—literally.Let's talk travel style: unscripted, effortless and rooted in curiosity. Here's how to pack with purpose and style, wherever your itinerary takes you.Fashion-Forward Travel Outfits for Five Popular City DestinationsNew York City: Urban Pulse Meets Creative EdgeIn the city that never sleeps, your style needs to move with you—fast, fresh, and bold. For summer in NYC, keep it street-smart and breathable. Rock our Unscripted Statement graphic tee with relaxed cargo shorts or distressed denim. Swap the leather jacket for a lightweight button-down or leave it out altogether. High-top sneakers still rule, and bold sunglasses or a bucket hat add just enough edge without trying too hard. NYC style is about individuality—make a statement without shouting.For men, pair the same tee with slim, cuffed chinos or athletic shorts and standout sneakers. Leave the jacket at home, but keep the energy strong with layered chains or a structured cap. Whether you're downtown or crossing bridges, your look should feel effortless but always on.Paris: Effortless Chic on Cobblestone StreetsParisian style thrives on thoughtful simplicity, even in the summer. Trade heavy layers for a lightweight tee or tank (our Unscripted Dare to Roam design works perfectly) paired with high-waisted shorts or a breezy midi skirt. Add minimalist sneakers and a woven bag—or yes, a beret if you're feeling bold. The key: looking effortless while still turning heads. It's style without the show.For men, lean into quiet sophistication with a crisp tee, tapered chinos or linen pants, and clean leather sneakers. Swap the trench for a linen overshirt if there's a breeze. A slim watch and classic sunglasses seal the look. Parisian summer style whispers confidence—cool, collected, and always chic.Los Angeles: Laid-Back LuxeLA is home to many different categories of style, so your outfit here calls for comfort with a definite style edge. Our vintage-wash Roam Freely Wear Boldly tee is the perfect base for denim shorts, a flannel tied around the waist, and oversized sunglasses. This is a city where your look should feel as relaxed as your agenda—unplanned, free, and sun-kissed.For men, try our Unscripted Adventure Arch tee with joggers or shorts and comfy clean sneakers. Add a lightweight overshirt or open button-down for layering and finish with retro shades. London: Timeless Cool with a Rainy-Day TwistLondon style in summer is all about effortless cool and being ready for anything. Start with a breathable short-sleeve tee or linen shirt, then add tailored shorts or relaxed trousers. Swap boots for crisp white sneakers or sleek loafers, and don't forget a lightweight tote or statement sunglasses to elevate the look. Londoners master the mix of classic and unexpected—think a retro cap or a bold crossbody to finish it off. Sun or shade, the style always shines.For men, aim for laid-back polish with clean lines—our Unscripted Statement tee is a go-to. Wear it solo or toss on a light overshirt for breezy evenings. Pair with drawstring chinos or rolled denim, and complete the outfit with low-top trainers. A minimalist watch adds that refined summer touch. Londoners know how to make sunshine look effortless.Rome: Sun-Drenched Elegance with a Hint of DramaSummer in Rome is all about effortless elegance that sizzles with style. A linen-blend tee tucked into high-waisted trousers or a flowy midi skirt is perfect for wandering cobblestone streets or sipping espresso at a café. Add strappy leather sandals and oversized sunglasses for that classic Roman holiday feel. Gold accents—think hoop earrings, a sculptural cuff, or sleek cat-eye shades—bring just the right amount of drama. In Rome, style is art. Dress like you belong in a Fellini film.For men, keep it cool and polished with the same breathable tee, tailored linen pants or dressy shorts, and a slim leather belt. Loafers or crisp white sneakers are ideal for strolling through piazzas, and vintage-inspired sunglasses add a refined finish. In Rome, confidence is quiet and style is second nature—keep it sharp, simple, and sun-ready.The Key to it All: Blending in Without Losing YourselfThere's an art to the balance between respecting local culture and holding on to your personal style. That's where 1923 Main Street graphic designs really shine. Our designs are rooted in the soul of travel—each piece designed to evoke curiosity and wonder without shouting "tourist." It's about wearing your journey, not just walking through it. We know because we've lived it and each design has been thoughtfully created based on a very specific experience or destination.Packing Staples with Local Flair1923 Main Street t-shirt, sweatshirts and hoodies are designed to be versatile enough to wear in every corner of the world, yet each one has a story to tell. When packing, think layers: a tee for daytime exploring, a cozy hoodie for chilly nights, and a statement sweatshirt for those unexpected photo ops. Style them with city-specific accessories—scarves in Paris, a Yankees cap in NYC, or classic Ray-Bans in LA—and you've got a travel wardrobe that adapts, but never disappears.Travel-Inspired Designs for the Free-Spirited WandererAt 1923 Main Street, we design with the traveler in mind—those who believe the best moments are the unscripted ones. All of our designs are inspired by real places and the real people who wander them. These aren't just shirts—they're souvenirs in motion, crafted for the journey and the stories you'll tell after.Vibe with Your ItineraryYour clothes should move with your trip—not weigh it down. Whether you're brunching in a hidden Parisian café, wandering an arts district in LA, navigating subway stairs in NYC, or heading to a local pub in London, choose pieces that fit your mood, your moves and your moment. Comfort, confidence and curiosity all stitched together.Wherever your next adventure takes you, pack pieces that spark conversations and memories. Because at 1923 Main Street, we don't just make clothing—we dress the curious, the bold and the endlessly inspired.Unscripted journeys start with what you wear. So go ahead and Wear the Adventure.

So, you're going on a Disney vacation and you want to plan the perfect family look without looking like you're all heading to the office team-building retreat. Coordinated Disney Family Outfits That Don't Scream "Tacky Tourist"Matching outfits can be Disney adorable, but let's be honest: there's a fine line between coordinated and cringe. So how do you keep the magic alive and look like you belong on a curated Instagram feed? Fortunately, there are a few ways that you can nail the “together but tasteful” Disney matching outfits look.The Problem with the Common Matching Disney T-ShirtsYou've probably seen them. The bright-colored shirts with giant Mickey heads or hands and bold “SMITH FAMILY VACATION 2025” in faux Disney font splashed across the chest. Functional? Sure. Fashionable? Not exactly.Here's the thing:Yes, they stand out—but not in a chic way.Everyone's wearing them, so they're not as “special” as you thought or hoped.They can be a little... much… in photos you'll keep forever.For those memories that will last a lifetime, you deserve something more – something that feels magical and modern, not mass-produced.Swap the Matchy-Matchy Disney Look for a More Cohesive Color StoryInstead of going full-matching or obvious Disney twinsies, try thinking like a stylist: pull together a coordinated color palette. Choose a few shades that vibe well together—say, dusty blues, natural, warm tones and similar—and mix and match across the family.What it looks like:Mom in a light-toned 1923 Main Street hoodie and cropped jeansDad in a slate-colored subtle Disney graphic tee and canvas shortsKids in muted Mickey-inspired graphics and solid-colored shorts or joggersNow everyone looks like they belong together, without looking like they had to dress like staff in a fast-food restaurant.Grown-Up Disney: Subtle Nods for Stylish AdultsDisney adults can take comfort in the fact that you can rep your love for Disney without going full Goofy. The key? Subtle touches that nod to the magic.This is where 1923 Main Street subtle Disney inspired travel-themed unique t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies really shine. Think tasteful typography, vintage aesthetics and clever nods to your favorite Disney themes—without screaming Disney (meaning you can wear these anywhere and not look like you're screaming Disney all the time).Ideas for low-key Disney Parks style:Graphic tees with subtle inspirations from Disney-related themesHoodies featuring retro-style travel graphics that only true Disney fans will recognizeNeutral tones with classic silhouettes and hidden Disney hints or Easter EggsIt's Disney inspired, but decidedly not Disney, all at the same time. This is fashionable subtle and elegant Disney style and it's one of our specialties at 1923 Main Street. In fact, it's why 1923 Main Street is known as the creator of original elegant subtle Disney style.Disney Travel Outfit Chemistry 101: Mixing 1923 Main Street for the Whole FamilyThe 1923 Main Street subtle Disney apparel is pure magic for family styling. Our Disney inspired graphic t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies feature the legacy, the minimalism and the travel-lovers' charm that works for almost every age. While we don't have specific kid-size outfits, we do offer most apparel in small and often extra small sizes, which will fit many younger ones nicely. As a bonus, purchasing these sizes instead of kids' sizes means their clothes will be able to grow with them for at least a little while, giving you more value for your purchase. Sizing Tip: Be sure to pay close attention to our lay-flat size guides to get the perfect fit for everyone in your group, including your younger ones with small and extra small sizes.Try these Disney travel style combos:Adults:Option 1: Olive green 1923 Main Street hoodie or sweatshirt + denim + white sneakersOption 2: Black “Resort Collection” hoodie + shorts + comfy walking shoesKids:Option 1: Heather gray 1923 Main Street subtle Disney tee + joggers + Mickey bucket hatOption 2: Soft lilac Castle Crew shirt + biker shorts + character sneakersEveryone looks like they belong in the same group—but in a laid-back, effortlessly cool way.Picture-Perfect Disney Vacation Outfit IdeasLet's not forget the real MVP here: your camera roll. Your subtle Disney travel outfits should shine in your Disney photos. Here are some pro-worthy photo-friendly outfit themes to get you started:Pastel ParadeEach family member wears a different pastel tone.

Want to look your best when you step off the plane after a flight? No matter where you're going, you're going to need to be ready to go when you land.5 Things to Consider to Travel in Comfort Without Sacrificing StyleWhether it's a quick two-hour hop to a theme park destination, or a six-hour cross-country or overseas haul, air travel doesn't have to mean sacrificing your style for comfort. It's true. The right outfit can carry you from gate to getaway with no outfit change required. With just a little planning (and a great hoodie), you can stay cozy in-flight and look sharp the moment you land and get on your way.Five Ways to Look Good When You Step Off the PlaneHere are five ways to look good after your next flight, no matter how long you're in the air.1. Choose Comfortable, but Polished, Travel OutfitsLong gone are the days of sweatpants that scream “I gave up.” Today's travel clothes combine comfort with intention. That means a relaxed fits that still look refined. Go for comfortable buy stylish shorts, joggers or stretch denim. Pair that with a graphic tee with personality, and comfortable easy-on shoes or sneakers. You'll not only breeze through security, but you'll still look great and ready-to-go at arrivals.2. Pack Wrinkle-Resistant Fabrics and Easy LayersWrinkle free clothing has come a long way in both performance and style. From recycled poly-cotton blends to tri-knit tops, wrinkle-resistant fabrics are a travel game-changer. They hold their shape during hours of sitting, folding and laying on your carry-on. Layering adds both function and fashion. Start with a breathable t-shirt and top it with a soft hoodie. Add a denim jacket or something similar that will look good slung over your seat or your shoulders.3. Don't Travel Without Your Go-To Hoodie or SweatshirtA soft, mid-weight hoodie is the real MVP of air travel. Need a blanket? Hoodie. Cold on the plane? Hoodie. Want to look effortlessly cool at the baggage claim? Hoodie.Our 1923 graphic sweatshirts and hoodies are made for moments like this—super-soft with a vintage edge that feels broken-in from day one.  They bring personality and warmth to your outfit without bulk and will travel with you long after your journey has ended.4. Wear Outfits That Go Straight from Plane to ExploringWhen you land, the last thing you want is to dig through your bag for a whole new look. Your airport outfit should double as your first-day-of-adventure outfit. That's why we love elegant statement graphic tees layered with neutral staples. Throw on a hat and sunglasses and you're instantly ready to hit the streets, hit the parks, check out a café, or snap that all-important “I've arrived” first vacation selfie.5. Feature the Style You Want the World to SeeBuilt for travelers, dreamers and modern nomads, our 1923 Main Street® designs are inspired by classic destinations, eternal memories and that vintage travel poster vibe. It's all about the love of the journey itself. 1923 Main Street t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies aren't just comfy and warm—they tell a story. From airport terminals to cobblestone streets, they're designed to stand out without trying too hard.No matter your destination—or flight time—your style should travel as well as you do. Pack light, layer smart, and don't forget your 1923 Main Street travel-ready gear.Because looking good after a six-hour flight? That's not magic, it's just good planning.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies, dresses, swimwear and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and have a magical day!Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

A Walt Disney World vacation is all about magic, memories and—let's not forget—a lot of walking. From early morning rope drop, to unpredictable weather and evenings filled with fireworks, packing smart can make a big difference. That's where a capsule wardrobe comes in: a capsule wardrobe is a thoughtful collection of versatile, mix-and-match pieces that let you travel light without sacrificing comfort or style.At 1923 Main Street, we design a collection of subtle Disney-inspired apparel for travelers who love the magic, but who want to keep things stylish without too much effort. Here's how to build the perfect capsule wardrobe for your next Disney vacation—whether it's a short hop of three days, or a full week's vacation.What is a Capsule Wardrobe—and Why is it Perfect for Disney Vacations?A capsule wardrobe is a small, intentional collection of clothing that can be mixed and matched in multiple ways. The goal of a capsule wardrobe is to have fewer items, but be able to create more outfits. A capsule wardrobe is all about efficiency and planning for your destination.For Disney vacations, this approach is especially helpful because it has several benefits:Less and Lighter luggage: Save your luggage space for Disney souvenirs and skip the checked baggage fees.Less Outfit Stress: Spend your time choosing your next ride or snack and not stressing over which outfit to wear.Know that You're Ready for anything: From rain to heat to chilly indoor dining, your smart layers strategy will have you covered.The Core Items for a Disney Capsule Wardrobe: Three to Five Essential PiecesStart with a few versatile basics that can be worn in multiple combinations:Two to three graphic tees – Soft, lightweight and breathable tees with a touch of personality are a perfect choice. Our castle shadow t-shirt This is My Story is a popular tee for this reason: it pairs well with anything.A neutral tank or tee – add versatility with a neutral colored lightweight tank or t-shirt that will go with any outfit and is great for layering.One pair of comfortable shorts – Think neutral tones like khaki or soft denim.One pair of casual pants, leggings or joggers – Ideal for cooler nights or travel days. A layering piece – A hoodie or crewneck sweatshirt with a subtle Disney touch is a must-have.One versatile dress or romper (optional) – Easy to dress up or down for a nice dinner or character dining.How to Choose the Right Graphic Tees and LayersYour Disney wardrobe doesn't have to scream characters or anything else. Subtle, well-designed graphic tees (our speciality at 1923 Main Street) make your outfit park-appropriate and stylish beyond the castle gates.When choosing tees and sweatshirts:Go for soft neutrals: Grey, navy and lighter soft colors mix easily.Think theme: Match your tee to your park day. Planning to explore Animal Kingdom? Try our Animal Kingdom Coffee Co. hoodie as an outer layer.Layer intentionally: Florida mornings can be cool at many times of the year and indoor rides and Disney buses are almost always chilly. Bring a sweatshirt or hoodie that you can wear every day if needed.Sample Packing Lists for Any Disney World VacationHere's how to build your capsule wardrobe depending on the length of your trip:Three-Day Getaway Disney Weekend or Short Hop2 graphic tees1 pair of shorts1 pair of joggers/casual pants/leggings1 layering piece1 pair of sneakersSwimsuitMix Example: Day 1: Tee 1 + shorts Day 2: Tee 2 + joggers/casual pants/leggings Day 3: Tee 1 + joggers + sweatshirtFive-Day Disney Vacation3 graphic tees1 pair of shorts1 pair of joggers/casual pants/leggings1 layering piece1 casual dress or skirt1 pair of sneakers, 1 pair of sandalsSwimsuitMix Example: Rotate tees with different bottoms and layer as needed. Use the dress for a character meal or night out at Disney Springs.Seven-Day Weeklong Disney Vacation4 graphic tees2 bottoms (shorts + joggers/casual pants/leggings or skirt)1 layering piece1 casual dress2 pairs of shoes (sneakers + sandals or slip-ons)Swimsuit (or two)Add a small laundry pack for in-room washing, or better still, use your resort laundry (they all have them) to refresh your clothing mid-week.Final Tips for a Magical (and Minimal) SuitcaseStick to a color palette so everything coordinates well.Pack for layering, not bulk.Wear your bulkiest items on the plane to save space.Roll your clothes instead of folding—you'll get more space and fewer wrinkles.With a well-planned Disney vacation capsule wardrobe, you'll spend less time thinking about what to wear and more time soaking up the magic.Roam Freely.

This episode is for all the fashion influencers out there. Recently we covered comfort versus style when it comes to choosing the right hoodie (or hoodies) to pack for your vacation.Three Reasons that Graphic Hoodies Can be Dicey to Pack and How to Get Around ThemNow, we're going to talk purely about fashion. We all know that vacations are prime time for outfit pics, with unique surroundings, fun vistas and once-in-a-lifetime potential to capture that viral fit pic.  Plus, depending on where you're going, you might also want to elevate your look beyond cool casual. This is where the graphic hoodie you love can get dicey, Why? Because graphics hoodies can have some minuses if you're not careful with your outfit and photo planning:Visually Loud: Bold graphics on a hoodie can clash with the rest of your travel wardrobe. A hoodie that screams "skate park energy" or “theme park crazy” might not vibe with a quaint Parisian café or a minimalist Tokyo boutique (let alone the pastoral beauty of an awesome landscape as a backdrop)Style Limitations: A graphic hoodie doesn't easily dress up. You can't really rock it to a nice dinner, a night out, or a cultural venue with a dress code.Travel Aesthetic: If you're curating a travel aesthetic—think coastal chic, urban minimalist, or boho traveler—a graphic hoodie might throw off the entire vibe.All of these are potential outfit breakers. That is, if you don't plan ahead.If you're packing light and hoping to build a cohesive, Instagram worthy travel wardrobe, a hoodie covered in memes, logos, or band names might stick out like a sore thumb.Here's How to Answer the Travel Hoodie Question: Should You Pack It?Yes—if:Your vacation involves a lot of transit time or unpredictable weather.You plan to dress casually and prioritize comfort.The graphic matches your personal style or travel aesthetic.Maybe not—if:Your trip leans toward high-end experiences or has a formal element.You're working with a minimalist packing list and every item must multitask.You're aiming for a more curated travel aesthetic.Pro Tip for Travel Packing and Hoodies: Meet in the MiddleStill on the fence about packing that travel graphic hoodie? Go for a neutral-toned hoodie with a subtle graphic—something that reflects your personality without dominating your outfit. This way, you can stay comfy and stylish, no compromise necessary.At the end of the day, the graphic hoodie is neither hero nor villain—it's all about how well it plays with the rest of your suitcase. Choose wisely, pack smart, and enjoy the journeyWhat's your take—are you team graphic hoodie, or team leave it at home? Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies, dresses, swimwear and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and have a magical day!Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo

We take you behind the scenes of one of the most unique — and heartwarming — challenges we've ever taken on: riding “it's a small world” at Magic Kingdom for 10 straight hours to raise money for the Dream Team Project, which supports Make-A-Wish. That's right — boat after boat, loop after loop, song after song — all for a cause that's close to our hearts.We share what inspired us to take on this seemingly never-ending voyage, how the idea came to life, and why giving back through the Main Street 16 Challenge Weekend has become such an important part of what we do. You'll hear the highs, the unexpected moments of hilarity, the not-so-magical parts, and the emotional impact of seeing our community come together to support something bigger than all of us.Throughout the day, we were joined by incredible friends, fellow Disney fans, and Main Street Magic listeners who hopped into boats with us — whether for one loop or several — and helped turn this challenge into a celebration of connection, kindness, and of course… a little bit of madness. We also cover how this event ties into the larger Main Street 16 Challenge Weekend, including race day fun, the scavenger hunt through Disney Springs, and our continued mission to support the Dream Team Project.Whether you love the ride or dread the tune, this episode is packed with magic, meaning, and memories. Tune in for the full recap and find out just how many loops we survived (spoiler: a lot).Main Street 16 Challenge Weekend is coming! May 15th – May 18th, 2025 in Walt Disney WorldThis event is a way to bring our community together and rally to raise money for a great cause. Part social gathering, part scavenger hunt, part ride challenge, Main Street 16 is a combination of all the things we love about the Disney Parks—The rides, the details, and most importantly, the people. And this event is about giving back to extraordinary people.BENEFITING THE DREAM TEAM PROJECTThe funds raised during the Main Street 16 Challenge Weekend benefit the Dream Team Project, an initiative founded by Lou Mongello of WDW Radio. This project collaborates with the Make-A-Wish Foundation to grant Disney-related wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions, providing them and their families with memorable experiences at Walt Disney World.   Learn more and donate at MainStreet16.comMEI-Travel – Expertise.

We're trading coasts and heading west for our very first trip to Disneyland! That's right—after years of covering Walt Disney World, we're finally getting the chance to experience the park that started it all. So today, we're counting down the eight things we're most excited to see, do, eat, and feel when we set foot in the Happiest Place on Earth.We kick things off with what might be one of the biggest draws for Walt Disney World veterans—simpler planning. From more day-of dining options to Lightning Lane flexibility and shorter trips that still feel full of magic, Disneyland encourages a spontaneous, go-with-the-flow style that takes the stress out of scheduling. That leads us into the vibe of the parks themselves—Disney California Adventure's uniquely themed lands, like Radiator Springs and Avengers Campus, offer a laid-back SoCal energy that's perfect for park hopping in under a minute.We'll also chat about seasonal events and entertainment we're catching during our trip, like DCA's Food & Wine Festival and Season of the Force. Add in Fantasmic! and fireworks over Sleeping Beauty Castle, and we've got a lot of nighttime magic to look forward to.Of course, Disneyland's culture and character interactions are a big part of the appeal. The more relaxed pace, roaming characters, and local passholder vibe all offer a very different feel from the Florida parks. And when it comes to food, we're more than ready to dig into some legendary Disneyland snacks—from corn dogs and churros to beignets and high-quality quick service.We'll wrap things up with a look at classic and unique attractions, the charming scale and layout, and finally, the emotional pull of walking in Walt's footsteps at his original park.Join us as we count down the top reasons we're absolutely thrilled to head to Disneyland for the very first time!MEI-Travel – Expertise.

We'll break down what Memory Maker is, how much it costs, and what's included—from attraction photos and Magic Shots to character meet-and-greets and dining experiences. Whether you're striking a pose, caught in a scream, or making a silly face with your travel crew, ride photos are a snapshot in time that bring the magic home with you. But not all ride photos are created equal so we're talking about them all.We'll explore what makes a great PhotoPass experience, from the timing and placement of the camera to the quality of the image and how well it captures the spirit of the attraction. Some offer the perfect moment to show off your themed shirts or matching ears, while others might catch you totally off guard. A few might leave you wondering where the camera even was, while others deliver the kind of image you'll want to frame the moment you get home.As Walt Disney World regulars, we've had our fair share of ride photos—some amazing, some hilarious, and a few we'd rather forget. In this episode, we'll reflect on the overall experience of these in-ride captures, how they add to the magic, and which ones really stand out.

Each region features eight attractions, seeded and matched up for a series of head-to-head battles. But this isn't just about personal favorites—it's a competition grounded in five key categories that help define what makes a Walt Disney World experience truly magical.The first category is popularity, taking into account average wait times, Lightning Lane demand, and general hype among guests. Next is theming and immersion, which looks at the storytelling, design details, and how transported guests feel once they step into the attraction. Innovation and ride technology plays a major role as well, factoring in the use of cutting-edge systems, ride mechanics, and visual effects. Then there's broad appeal—how accessible and enjoyable the attraction is for guests of all ages and thrill levels. And finally, guest satisfaction, which covers overall enjoyment, re-ride value, and consistently high guest ratings.Throughout the episode, we'll debate each matchup, make tough calls, and share some personal memories tied to the rides. Whether you're team thrills, team nostalgia, or just here for the magic, this bracket challenge is the perfect way to celebrate the best of what Walt Disney World has to offer.Will a classic attraction come out on top, or will cutting-edge technology and big thrills steal the crown?
