DFB’s Disneyland correspondent Heather (catch her adventures @DiningInDisney!) occasionally becomes our international Disney Parks correspondent, and on her recent trip to Tokyo Disneyland she really… nailed it.
Tokyo Disney Nail Designs
Yup, we mean that literally. Heather (and her travel buds!) made an appointment at Cocette in Harajuku for the ultimate Disney nail art! It features classic foods of Tokyo Disney, and it’s be-YOND awesome.
