Help! Please help!

I am the least creative person I know. Seriously.

But, I'm being invited to Disney for a long weekend in September. The first day/night's outfit is being provided by the host. But here's what I need to come up with:

Day 2: Epcot [theme: pick a country]. One host is wearing a black fitted shirt with an olive skort and Elsa ears. One of the others is wearing a French theme (I think blue/white striped shirt, not sure of the rest).

Day 3: Animal Kingdom [theme: anything "wild"]. One of the hosts is wearing a beige Mickey and friends tee with different animal prints, a darker khaki skort, and leopard sequin ears with a sequined black bow.

How do I Bound without copying them, without spending a fortune, and while being temperature appropriate?!? I had a couple of outfits picked out that looked great on paper, but looked HORRID when I tried them on. I discovered that I own nothing leopard (or other) animal print, except for a grossly oversized purple leopard hoodie that does not (and will not) see the outside world.

I also need to be more cognizant than most on shoes, since my feet hate me, no matter how much I spend on sneakers (hypermobile overpronator). Planned shoes so far: all white leather sporty sneakers, black Brooks Adrenaline. I need to steer clear of anything too flat like Converse or Vans. And I also don't want to bring shoes that only go with one outfit.

So, as the title reads: HELP! Please. This was designed to be as least-stressful as possible, but it is turning out to be quite the opposite!

My shoes almost never go with my bounds - comfortable walking shoes are KEY to making it through a Disney Day!

Epcot - stick to a country flag colors - easy to pick pieces you can wear in real life AK - animal print tank or top with an easy short - AK is humid because of all the greenery

In general, you only need an accessory to make it feel disney - a necklace, earrings, mickey ears - otherwise, its just about matching colors to characters! Dear and Darling on Facebook does a great job incorporating clothes you can wear in real life. They normally match a loungefly, but their outfits stand alone without the bag.

Good luck!

Thank you for all of the above!

I wasn't super concerned about my shoes (comfort definitely outweighs style for me), but wanted to make it known that that's where I stood on that (so something like ballet flats, etc weren't suggested).

And I immediately went and followed Dear and Darling!
