Earlier this month, I was invited to a Spirit Jersey x Star Wars launch event where I got to preview their newest Star Wars collection, engage in fun activities, and hang out with my Star Wars friends! The decor and the vibes were immaculate! Of course, I had to show up in my The Rise of Skywalker Spirit Jersey, one of my favorites from the brand. I love the space print!
After you're done reading, you can also get an alternate look at what the event looked like from my Instagram Reel.
Their new Star Wars collection primarily focuses on The Dark Side, which I'm quite a fan of, but there is a wonderful The Mandalorian and Grogu number as well. The silver foil font is incredible!
Spirit Jersey was kind enough to gift us each one of their new designs. The Chosen One and Mustafar were my top picks, but I ultimately decided on The Chosen One design, because it dramatically highlights my favorite character. Jason opted for Darth Maul, one of his favorite baddies!
The Sith Lords design will be released on May 6th, a perfect release date if you ask me. I was pleasantly surprised to see Count Dooku featured on this one. It's nice to see this character get some recognition on official Star Wars merchandise.
There were multiple craft stations set up, including Sand Art and Build-Your-Own-Doorables-Keychains. I was instantly inspired to create a simple sand art to reflect Tatooine, and the infamous line by Anakin Skywalker himself, "I don't like sand...".
I opted for a simple Doorables keychain with a sparkly star dangling above little Leia and her itty-bitty droid, Lola, from the Obi-Wan Kenobi series. The sun had set at this point, so excuse the bad lighting.
We were completely surprised and spoiled with gifts from BullsiToy, Girls Crew, Disney Worldwide Publishing, and Disney Doorables - all companies we love and support. We're so grateful!
Events like these are so special for a couple of reasons. For one, I never imagined being recognized for my passion for Star Wars and love of content-making back when I first started this blog. I also love it because I often get to meet my online friends in person because of these events, because of Star Wars. This fandom brings people from across the galaxy together, and it's a beautiful thing!
