Avengers: Endgame Suit Track Jacket


I posted the Avengers: Endgame collection by Her Universe back in April and shared that there were several pieces I loved. I recently purchased the track jacket or as I like to call it the "Time Heist suit". This jacket is identical to the suit worn by the Avengers in Endgame, complete with Avengers logo on both shoulders and the "spacetime GPS" on the left wrist.


It zips down the front and it's legitimate active wear, made of 95% polyester and 5% spandex. It feels amazingly soft and comfortable! Right now I'm enjoying styling it with my regular clothes but I may wear it as a track jacket in the winter when I run. This jacket is available at Hot Topic and I was thrilled to find it in store because it sold out super quick online! I was also able to use my Hot Cash and military discount to get this jacket for $23 from an original retail price of $56.90!

The sizes are unisex and I am wearing a size small. For a close fit, XS would have fit me better but that size wasn't available in store. Plus, I don't like my clothing to fit snug, especially when I'm working out. This jacket is incredible and I am so obsessed with it!

Captain Marvel Clothing

I posted previously when Her Universe released a Captain Marvel clothing collection at Hot Topic and Box Lunch. I fell in love with it and picked up several pieces for myself. Here they are:


Here I'm wearing the Captain Marvel jacket from Box Lunch over the Captain Marvel pocket tank, also from Box Lunch. I bought both using my Lunch Money which got me an awesome deal! (The aviators are from Fossil).


Here's a look at the Pocket Tank without the jacket. I got a size small in both and the tank is a little over-sized but I still feel like it was a good, comfortable fit. The jacket fits perfectly and I rolled up the sleeves. I wore both to see Captain Marvel opening weekend.


The lighting in this picture is terrible, but here's a look at the stitching on the back of the Captain Marvel jacket. The bad lighting makes it look gray but it's still the olive color you see in the first picture. The stitching is so subtle yet totally Captain Marvel, and I love the vintage style to match the decade of the movie.


This photo is the Captain Marvel Aviator Jacket from Hot Topic. The sizing on this was a little strange. I'm usually a small so that's the size I started with, but I felt like the arms were disproportionate to the rest of the jacket. They felt too tight and when I zipped the jacket up, it felt like it was choking me around the neck. So I exchanged for a medium which fits comfortably both zipped and unzipped, and the arms feel better. But I think it looks a little too big unzipped. Oh well. I still love it so I'm keeping it!


Here's a look at the t-shirt without the jacket. This is the Captain Marvel Cosplay shirt from Hot Topic. I got a medium in this shirt because I find Her Universe tees usually run small as they're listed in junior sizes. The medium is a comfortable fit but again felt a little over-sized (very unusual for Her Universe) and is longer in length than I thought. Again, it's comfortable so I decided to keep it instead of exchange for a small.

I bought both the Hot Topic items with Hot Cash and they also had 25% off Captain Marvel the day I purchased in store - an incredible deal! Not only did I get great prices on all of these items, but I'm so glad I snagged everything when I did because now it's all showing sold out in my size. I'm thinking about wearing one of these outfits to see Avengers: End Game. I have a feeling Carol Danvers will be the hero of that movie.

My New Disney Bathing Suits!

If you've been around this blog for a while, you know how much I love Hot Topic for Disney merchandise! Don't get me wrong, I love the Disney Store too, but Hot Topic always seems to have more offerings for women and let me tell you, the deals they have pretty frequently are incredible! Here's an example:

I went to my local Hot Topic last weekend because I had a 30% off coupon for being in Hot Topic's loyalty program. When I got to the store, they were offering an in-store deal on swimwear - buy one get one free. I thought to myself, "My 30% off is a better deal, so I'll go with that", I only came in for one swimsuit and already knew what I wanted. I got to the checkout and the sales assistant said "You get one free, we have a sale right now" I said "Thanks for letting me know but I have a coupon I'd like to use instead". He said "You can use that too, go pick out something else!" So I did, and while I was at it, I got a bikini too!


The above picture is the swimsuit I wanted. It's the Peter Pan Mermaid Lagoon Retro Swimsuit and I am so in love with it! The straps are adjustable and removable so you can wear it as a halter, racer back, or strapless.

For my free swimsuit with that purchase, I got a Jack Skellington swimsuit, although I did consider the The Little Mermaid swimsuit because it was just so cute as a one piece! But I already have a Little Mermaid bikini. Hopefully Jack won't be too hot being black.


So of course with such good deals, I couldn't say no to buying another swimsuit I'd been eyeing. I intended only to buy the Mermaid Lagoon swimsuit so then I'd have two swimsuits at home: a bikini and a one piece. But with these great savings, I went ahead and bought a bikini I was in love with - Moana!


I can't decide which I love more, the Moana bikini or Peter Pan one piece! I absolutely love how I look in the Moana bikini, it is GORGEOUS! (You can find the top here and bottoms here). Sadly I don't get to go swimming often. We don't have a pool, or a neighborhood pool, and I live really far from the beach. It will probably be my next Disney trip before I get to wear these but I will look super cute when I do! And now I won't have to buy any more bathing suits for a while ;)

Disney Holiday Shopping Deals

Another long overdue post! Over the holiday season I scored some fantastic deals on some new Disney merchandise that I wanted to share with you. Here are three items I'd been eyeing at Hot Topic for months. I got the sweater and cardigan 40% off!




The Yoda slippers were a steal because they were 30% off too but I also had $5 store credit to use before the end of December, so after that was applied I paid $6 for them!


Finally my last Disney holiday purchase was this Maleficent Christmas t-shirt. I think I first saw this at the Disney Store back in September/October and wanted it but it was $20. I don't ever spend $20 on a Disney t-shirt outside of Walt Disney World because there's too many deals out there. Sure enough 2 days before Christmas it was marked down to $11.99 - almost half price. There were only 3 left but luckily one of those was my size! So I snapped it up. Then when I got the register I remembered I had a coupon for 25% off with my Disney Visa which of course I used, and that took the shirt down to $8.99! I love a Disney deal! I also got the men's version (Grumpy) for hubby. I can't wait to wear it next holiday season!

The Little Mermaid Bikini

I am starting to get everything together that I'll need for my upcoming Walt Disney World trip, so my next few posts will be showcasing items I've purchased in anticipation of my trip.

Today I want to show you guys this super cute bathing suit I got at Hot Topic - it's the Little Mermaid! Full price this was $60 but it was on clearance for $30 and I had Hot Cash, making my grand total just $15 for this amazing two piece!! I don't think Target can beat that!


Unfortunately I've gone through the Freshman 15 again over the past year, and I've only been able to lose half of that so far. I am still way too far from my target weight not to feel self-conscious in this bathing suit but I'll be wearing it anyway because I bought it specifically for this trip. I probably should have gotten this one piece for $18 instead. I'm 3 weeks away so I highly doubt I'll get any closer before I leave and I for sure won't be my target weight. Ugh.

We are having two water park days: one at Blizzard Beach and one day at Typhoon Lagoon so I know I'll get some good use out of this bathing suit!

My Latest Disney Clothing Purchases

As long term readers of my blog already know, and new visitors to my blog could easily figure out, I love Disney clothing! I am always looking for cute new Disney clothing to add to my wardrobe. Here's what I picked up recently:


I got this Moana kimono from Hot Topic during a flash sale. It's super comfy and has a great fit. I am currently obsessed with Moana so I really wanted this!


Here's a closer look at the detail, you can see Maui and his hook, some of his tattoo pattern, pretty flowers, and Moana sailing with Pua.


I also made some purchases at UNIQLO recently, who have a really neat Disney collection for kids and adults (inlcuding Marvel and Pixar). The above t-shirt is Snow White themed, with apples and the occasional poison apple in the design. I love it! I enjoy wearing this to work and subtly showing my Disney side.


I also got this plaid flannel shirt on sale at UNIQLO. It's super comfy and again, has just a hint of Disney flair.


Here's a closer look at the Disney detail: Mickey Mouse embroidered above the pocket with a Mickey head tag on the side. I am in love with my new Disney clothes!

My Magical Friday Haul

For those who don't know, Magical Friday is the Disney Store name for Black Friday. I realize that Black Friday was almost a month ago, but due to shipping delays, I've only just now received all of my Black Friday purchases. Here's a look at the Disney items I got. First up, here's what I got from the DisneyStore.com:


It's a Dumbo and paisley print fashion top from the Disney Boutique line. It's kind of a beige/off-white color with a gray design. Here's a closer look at some of the details:


I also ordered a couple of Disney clothing items from Hot Topic:


This is a Peter Pan sweater that I just love! As you can see, Peter Pan, Wendy, John and Michael are flying along the neckline. The sweater has an open back with a sheer tank top attached underneath. Here's a look at the back:


I don't think the cosmic looking design is connected in any way to Peter Pan, but I still like the sweater. I also bought an Alice in Wonderland open cardigan:


Here's a look at how it drapes:


The Winnie the Pooh top I'm wearing underneath doesn't really coordinate but it's 5 degrees out right now so I'm wearing it anyway because it's thermal!

I'm really happy with my purchases, and even more happy with how much money I saved! It's just a little disappointing how long some of it took to ship. (Sorry for a couple of the grainy pictures, natural light has been hard to come by recently).
