As many know here on my blog, my family and I visit Disney World usually annually in the summer.
This year we will be in Disney in less than 2 weeks time now for more Disney summer time fun. This is our third summer at Disney in the summer. So, I am bit of a pro with Disney summer vacations.
But going to Disney, especially in the height of summer time requires this mom to dress a certain way.
First of all, it is hot and humid in Florida at this time of the year. Plus, thunderstorms come on quickly.
Also, Disney summer vacations require a lot of walking.
Therefore, the appropriate attire for Disney vacations during the summer is a must.
So, what are my top wardrobe picks for Disney summer vacations?
My Top 5 Disney Summer Vacation Wardrobe Picks…
1. Shorts/tank tops/light weight sundresses with bathing suit under.
Again, it is hot at Disney in the summer months. So, you want to pick lightweight clothing as much as possible. As a mom, I am big on wearing shorts and tank tops. I also have been known to wear cute, lightweight sundresses. But underneath I usually wear a bathing suit as there are water rides. So, bathing suits are a huge plus to wear under either of the options.
2. Ponchos for the occasional thunderstorm.
As hot as it is at Disney in summer, there usually is a thunderstorm that will pop up at some time during the day. Therefore, we never leave our hotel without our ponchos packed in our backpacks. Trust me as our first time there, we got caught in a thunderstorm without our ponchos and it wasn’t a pretty sight.

3. Polarized sunglasses to protect your eyes.
It is mostly hot and sunny during the summer months. Like I said baring the occasional thundershower, you will need some protection for your eyes from the bright sunshine. So, I recommend polarized sunglasses for this reason.
4. Cooling towel/spray bottles to keep you cool.
Our first time at Disney, we kept seeing people walking around Disney either spraying themselves down with spray bottles or wearing some form of wet towel around their necks. See the spray bottles or wet/cooling towels help to keep you cool at your pressure points if nothing else.
5. Reebok Sneakers for comfortable walking.
Disney parks come with a good deal of walking. So, you will get a good workout.
Therefore, you will want comfortable shoes, such as sneakers to wear.
So, I highly recommend Reebok Club MEMT shoes.
I recently got a new pair at my local DSW to wear on our upcoming Disney vacation. I love shopping at DSW for all my shoe needs as they have many and varied types of shoes. So, makes sense it was my go-to store for these Reebok Club MEMT shoes for our upcoming Disney vacation. By the way, you can also purchase a pair of Reebok Classics for yourself at your own local DSW today!
See these Reebok Club MEMT shoes are not only extremely comfortable for all the Disney walking, but are fashionably retro, too.
Therefore, I can also see myself wearing these shoes once we return for running errands, summertime fun and more with my kids in tow.
There you have my top 5 Disney Summer Vacation Wardrobe picks. Hope, if you too are going to Disney this summer, you will enjoy, too!

Super tips! I was so clueless with how to dress last year when we went!
Janine says
Thanks Meredith and I know our first year there I was seriously so clueless how to dress. So happy to share for those who may not know and are newbies to this, too 🙂
Seana Turner says
I remember needing the ponchos when we were there. They are a must for sure! Hope you have a wonderful trip. I’m on vacation now and believe it or not, we’ve been passing around the stomach flu, which has been a big bummer! Stay healthy and have a great time.
Janine says
Aw, so sorry to hear you all aren’t feeling well on vacation now and hope you feel better soon!! Thank you for your kind wishes though, too for our upcoming trip. We just can’r wait and just excited planning and preparing now 😉
Kathy Radigan says
Great tips! I’m so glad you are going back to Disney because I love to see your pics each time you go!! xo
Janine says
Aw, thanks Kathy and I can’t wait to saber more pics here form this year’s upcoming trip soon 😉
Dara says
I usually wear sandals and then I regret it after walking all day long!
Janine says
I did that too the first year and most definitely regretted it, as well!
Tamara says
Cheers to that. The shoes rock and they’re super important.
We only go to Disney World in the winter, but this is all still valid. In fact, probably more so, since we’re not used to shoes that aren’t winter boots, sunglasses, and warmth up here at that time.
Janine says
Well, going in November later this year, I may learn a bit more about that part of it still, too 🙂
Mary says
I forwarded some of your posts to my friends that are planning a trip to Disney World this year and they found them super helpful. I bet you are a pro with Disney Summer Vacations. I didn’t even think about all the walking you have to do. I like the idea of wearing a bathing suit under your clothes, water rides are the best. I didn’t realize thunderstorms were even possible, that’s a great tip. Lovin your cute white Reeboks
Janine says
Aw, thanks so much Mary for saying all of this and more. And I really do love my new Reeboks and cannot wait to wear them at Disney in less than 10 days now!! 🙂
William Holland says
Bev’s daughter is at Disneyland right now with some college friends. Me, I’ve never been….doubt now that I ever will be. 🙂 Happy Wednesday, albeit a late Wednesday.
Janine says
Aw, happy Wednesday right back at you and hope Bev’s daughter is having the best time now, too 😉
Rea says
I agree with lightweight clothes and comfy sneakers! I haven’t tried Reebok but my husband did and it’s pretty good. Maybe on my next purchase I’ll try it. 🙂
Janine says
I hope you do purchase the next time as these Reebok’s seriously are so comfortable and couldn’t recommend more if I tried! 😉
Aunt Gloria says
Good suggestions. And the Reebok shoes are a good idea for all the walking. I’m sure you’ll have a great time, as usual, when you are in Disney World. See you soon. xxoo
Janine says
Aw, thanks Aunt Gloria and see you soon, too 🙂
