One of the best Disney movies ever created was Tangled. I remember seeing it in theaters and falling in love with it instantly. From the storyline, to all of the songs in the movie, it suddenly became a favorite of mine. Throughout the movie, Rapunzel's goal is to see the "floating lanterns gleam" that are always on her birthday every year. 

I'm pretty sure after watching that movie everyone wanted to experience the joy that Rapunzel had when she finally got to see the lanterns. But that movie is simply a fairytale and could never happen in real life, right? WRONG! In fact, there is a festival dedicated to having people live this magic in real life. The Lantern Festival travels around the country to various locations giving people the chance to let off their own lantern and light up the sky. 

A group of us took a little road trip to a small town in the middle of nowhere in Pennsylvania to attend this festival. There were food vendors, live music, face painting, and more to participate in before the lantern launch was to occur after sunset.

It was now time for the launch, which everyone was highly anticipating all day long. The sky instantly lit up with glowing lanterns everywhere. No picture or video could truly capture the beauty that surrounded us. I was in awe. I felt as though I stepped into the movie Tangled and was living in a fairytale. 

If a Lantern Festival ever comes to your area, I highly recommend going. It was such an amazing experience!

Saturday my dream of going to a music festival finally came true. My friends Hannah, Gloria, Gabby, and I all took a little road trip to Dover, DE to attend Firefly music festival. It was such a fun and memorable experience, with absolutely perfect, sunny weather (especially since the weather forecast called for rain all day).

Saturday's lineup was the best for the entire weekend, with artists like Chance The Rapper, The Weeknd, Galantis, and many more. My expectations were definitely met at every concert we watched.

Festival fashion is one of my favorite kinds of summer looks, so being able to create my own festival attire was very exciting.
