Looking for the cute Disneyland outfits? I'm breaking down what to wear to Disneyland by season, and sharing my must-haves for comfortable and stylish days at the park!

Looking for the perfect Disneyland outfits? Pin this to remember what to wear to Disneyland by season!

Let's talk Disney days.  As Disneyland annual pass holders, we head to Disneyland a LOT.  And when I asked y'all what Disneyland questions you wanted answered…..a TON of you said, you wanted Disneyland outfits tips.  You wanted to know what to wear to Disneyland.  What was actually comfortable? What lasts all day? What do we wear at different times of the year?  So, I'm breaking it all down.  What to wear to Disneyland by season.

A few general rules of thumb: think comfort, think long wear (something you can wear for 12 – 18 hours), think being on your feet, and bring layers.  The temperature in the early morning and evening can be SIGNIFICANTLY cooler than mid-day temperatures in Anaheim.

What to Wear to Disneyland By Season

Cute Disneyland Outfits for Fall / Spring:

Shop my Exact Outfit:

/ tee / jeans / sneakers / ears /

In Fall and Spring, the weather tends to be very easy for Disneyland outfits (that's why we pay those ridiculous Southern California housing prices).  You'll be set with some light layers.  My go-to cute Disneyland outfits in fall and spring? A comfortable pair of stretchy jeans, a cute Disney tee, comfortable shoes and a light sweatshirt or a light jacket for morning and evening.

Shop my favorite Disney Tees:

Another option for Disneyland outfits for spring or fall? I love a great dress that can easily be layered with a jean jacket or sweater.  These Hill House Nap Dresses are my favorite for all day comfy park wear!

Disneyland Outfits for Winter:

/ sweatshirt (similar) / jeans / sneakers /

While we don't exactly have snow here in LA, during the winter the temperatures at Disneyland can get pretty cold.  Plan for multiple layers, and bring a hat and scarf for those cold mornings and evenings.  I tend to layer a long-sleeved tee and sweatshirt, plus bring a jacket.  My latest favorite? A great spirit jersey and a thick sweatshirt.

Disneyland Outfits for Summer:

/ tee (similar) / shorts (similar) / sandals /

Now let's talk summer heat.  This is definitely the hardest time to dress for…..cause that heat? Gets up over 100 degrees on a regular basis.  While you may need warmer layers the rest of the year, you'll be removing those layers in the summer.  For summer, think SUPER comfortable shorts and a light tee.  Sandals that support (like these saltwater sandals or my favorite Birkenstocks) will last through the full day at the park.  Bring a very light sweatshirt for early mornings, and be sure to pack a hat to keep the sun out of your eyes.

There are a few items that I love for Disney Outfits year round……..be sure to invest in a great pair of sneakers……and a couple of pairs of fun ears.  Those are What to Wear to Disneyland requirements!

Frequently Asked Questions about What to Wear to the Disneyland Resort: 

Is it a good idea to bring extra clothes? This totally depends on your plans for what your Disneyland trip will look like.  Do you plan to go on water rides?  Then a change of clothes or shoes might be a good idea (you can always store things in the lockers).  Is there rain on the horizon? Then you may want to bring rain gear just in case.  These things aren't as pressing the warmer months.  Even if you get wet, you'll dry pretty quickly!

Are there major temperature drops after dark? Is there often unexpected cold weather? In the winter months, the temperature can vary and it definitely cools off after dark (I've seen it drop to below 40 degrees fahrenheit).  The forecast is normally pretty accurate, and keep in mind that Disneyland is usually open until midnight, so you may be there LATE.  For me? I check what the temperature will be at the LATEST time we plan to be there, and bring layers appropriate for that.  Not to repeat myself but, the lockers are your best friend here.  We store warmer jackets and hats until we need them during late nights or chilly mornings.  I also bring extra layers (like shirts with long sleeves and dry socks for after that Splash Mountain ride) just in case and store them as well!

Does the Disneyland Park have a dress code? There are some pretty simple rules for outfits for Disneyland (and most are just….common sense).  Costumes can not be worn by guests over the age of 13 (with the exception of special events like Oogie Boogie Bash).  Bare feet are not allowed, and there are general reminders that Disneyland is a family friendly environment so clothing should be reasonable for that.  Same goes for visible tattoos (basically, use good judgement knowing kids will be present).

We are planning our first Disneyland vacation, does everyone need Disney family shirts? My answer to this is…..NEED? No.  Does your entire family WANT to wear Disney family shirts? Then do it, it can be really fun (and looks great in photos).  If not? Then don't.  The point is to be comfortable and to have a good time.  Whatever is a good option for all day comfort? WEAR THAT.

Is the climate similar to Walt Disney World? NOT at all.  California weather is totally different than Florida weather.  We have zero humidity.  You'll have a dry heat during the warmer weather months and cool weather with little rain in the cooler seasons.  Be sure to check the weather, and not assume that one is similar to the other (you can see all my favorite options for Walt Disney World outfits HERE).

🚨 3 MISTAKES I MADE AT MY FIRST RUN DISNEY RACE 🚨 3 MISTAKES I MADE AT MY FIRST RUN DISNEY RACE 🚨⠀⠀🛑 Learn from my mistakes, 3 things you should NOT do if you’re running Disney races this year (trust me):⠀⠀1️⃣ Passing Go and Heading STRAIGHT to the parks: I realllllyyyyy wanted medal pictures.  In my running outfit.  So, instead of taking the buses straight from the finish line back to the hotel……we went to the Magic Kingdom.  Took photos.  Went to lunch.  And felt…..terrible by about 1 pm.  So take it from me, finish the race.  Go to the hotel.  Shower. Take a nap.  THEN go to the parks. ⠀2️⃣ Breakfast: ok, mistake number 2.  WHAT WE ATE.  We booked a very cute, very on theme lunch.  It was also very rich and creamy food.  And…..was NOT IT after a race.  Some of us may have gotten sick.  It might have been the food.  Or the lack of sleep.  But, breakfast food (waffles / eggs) would have been a MUCH better choice.  Now bonus points if you can guess where we ate.  Love it, but….not for the first meal after the race.⠀3️⃣ Park Tickets: I spent WAY too much.  I didn’t buy my park tickets in advance and paid full price.  On a race weekend, you’ll probably want tickets for race day and the day after if not two days after.  So….buy them NOW.  While you can get a deal. ⠀⠀🎟️ Which leads to……when I say buy those park tickets now, I mean it. Big News! Undercover Tourist is offering their best ticket deal at BOTH Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort…for a VERY limited time, get Adult Theme Park Tickets at Child Prices.  So whichever race you are running (or races in my case)……snag tickets NOW.  I’m grabbing mine for Wine and Dine and Princess weekend……..⠀🎟️ want a link to the deal? Comment TICKETS PLEASE and I’ll send it your way! ⠀👟 Are you running a Disney Race this year? Which one? ⠀⠀🥇 And if you’re an experienced Run Disney person….what tips do YOU have for first timers?⠀⠀@themeparkfrog @disneyland #FrogHopDLR #rundisney

Two good witches and one black cat…….kick off Two good witches and one black cat…….kick off another year of family halloween costumes.The thing is, I tried to talk Lydia out of these costumes.  It was a cooler day on Saturday and I kept telling her we could just wear jeans and the hats.  Until, I realized…….we may not have that many Halloween seasons left of cute family costumes.  So pink witches we were…..for the kickoff of Legoland’s Brick or Treat. We love Brick or Treat (this is our 3rd year doing it). It’s got some new activities this year, and I L-O-V-E that it’s included in your regular @legolandcalifornia ticket (bonus it ALSO will be included in Kids Free October here in SD).Our favs this year:- the wacky witch trail near the water park entrance- the zombie cheerleaders- halloween themed apple fries- the monster security checkpoint- Jam Out with the Rockers (this meet and greet is HYSTERICAL, scroll for the footage)Brick or Treat takes place on Saturdays in September and then Saturdays and SOME Sundays in October (dates are on the Legoland website).Welp, this makes it official.  Summer has come to an end. Bring on the Halloween fun!#sponsored #LEGOLANDcalifornia
