I’m just absolutely in love with these new dress, purses and accessories and they are a must have for Disney fashion lovers!

The delightful apparel and accessories collection – which was created especially for Disney Parks – has been a fan-favorite since it was introduced more than a year ago. The collection was designed for guests who want to emulate their favorite Disney characters or theme park attractions in a fun, retro way. The collection contains perfect outfits for guests who have a passion for Disney style. The dress styles are classic in design, yet all the styles have modern fits which make them wonderful outfits to wear when visiting Disney Parks.

A new Orange Bird dress and accessories debuted at the shop in January, however, Orange Bird Dooney & Bourke handbags just hit shelves this month.

Another guest favorite in this location is the selection of apparel by Her Universe that includes items inspired by Mad Tea Party in Fantasyland, Main Street, U.S.A., and the Haunted Mansion.

Cherry Blossom Minnie Ears Are The Newest Hot Seller At Disneyland Tokyo

As much of the world is still recovering from Rose Gold and Millennial Pink fever it seems a new color fad may be the only cure. These brand-new Cherry Blossom sequined Minnie ears are extremely popular and selling out fast at Tokyo Disneyland Resort.

The ears debuted back in early March at both Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea just in time for sakura season — a.k.a. cherry blossom season — and these new ears are so popular that they’ve been hard to keep on the shelves.

🌸🐭🌸Sakura ears🌸🐭🌸 桜のカチューシャらしい😂昼くらいまだボンボにあったけど、今通ったらボンボなくなってた😂 園内は沢山ありました😊 海外のよりピンクピンクしてるよ〜🌸

A post shared by 人間嫌いのビース子さん (@kwmhkk) on Feb 28, 2018 at 9:15pm PST

Springtime in Japan is nothing less than magical. From late March to mid-April, or even early may, the country’s iconic Cherry Blossoms capture the attention of visitors and locals as their beautiful pink flowers blanket the country in soft, colorful splendor.

This makes these the perfect mouse ears for people who are trying to get into the Sakura Spirit and love to seasonally match their ensemble. Perhaps these aren’t really a cure for the latest color fads at all, but rather meant to help fed the addiction of Minnie Mouse headband collectors.

Don’t worry, even though cherry blossom season is nearly over you can still grab these if there are not sold out. You can also find them online for as low as $30.

Springtime in Florida means longer, sun-filled days followed by warm-breezy nights perfect for spending time outside. And with dynamic, late-night entertainment, fresh dining experiences and stylish new stores, Disney Springs at Walt Disney World Resort is the place to be this spring.

Guests can mix and match their options to design the perfect night, with choices that range from sophisticated to laid back; romantic candlelight to high-energy dancing; and the ability to hop to each venue (with complimentary parking and no cover charges).

Flapper-style dancers lead the way to the dance floor at The Edison. The lavish “Industrial Gothic” – themed restaurant offers hand-crafted cocktails and live entertainment. Follow the sake sangria to the sophisticated Forbidden Lounge at Morimoto Asia, where a separate entrance welcomes guests for a late-night menu and libations.

The wine list will feature more than 135 wines by the ounce, glass and bottle, and the menu will include small plates, cheese and charcuterie, and sharable entrees.

20th Anniversary Merchandise at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Disney’s Animal Kingdom will mark its 20th anniversary at Walt Disney World Resort this month and to this day it continues inspiring and educating guests of all ages today through the magic of nature. The park opened on April 22, 1998 as “a new species of theme park”. For Disney Parks Merchandise, this milestone occasion was the perfect opportunity for creating an unforgettable collection of merchandise inspired by the theme park’s iconic centerpiece.

“We mixed earth tone colors with images of animals and icons reminiscent of the beautifully sculpted animal carvings found on the breathtaking Tree of Life,” explained Cody Reynolds, Senior Creative Director with Disney Consumer Products and Interactive Media Creative Group.

From a banshee at Pandora – The World of Avatar to a Baobab tree from the Kilimanjaro Safaris attractions, artists drew more than 50 stylized animals, icons and graphics for an artwork style guide. Merchandise developers referenced this guide when creating items to ensure the overall assortment had a consistent look.

Artwork on a t-shirt and matching water bottle captures the park’s tremendous transformation during the past 20 years, and includes nods to attractions from opening day to the more recent other-worldly additions of Na’vi River Journey and Avatar Flight of Passage.

“Guests love merchandise that commemorates significant moments in time,” said Katie Thompson from Global Merchandise Strategy at Disney Parks Merchandise. “This new merchandise builds on the success of recent theme park anniversary collections, and offers something for everyone looking to celebrate at Animal Kingdom throughout the upcoming year.”

Designed to complement each other, merchandise offered includes a mix of apparel for adults and kids, home décor, accessories and other collectibles such as trading pins or jewelry by ALEX AND ANI.

On select products, the merchandise team added hidden surprises in the artwork. A closer examination of drinkware reveals images of tiny ants strategically placed for guests to discover.

Island Mercantile in Disney’s Animal Kingdom serves as the headquarters for the 20th anniversary assortment. Select products may also be found in shops throughout the park or via Shop Disney Parks.

The celebration kicks off on Earth Day, April 22.

PANDORA Sparkles at Disneyland Paris With New Multi-Year Deal

PANDORA and Disneyland Paris announced recently that they have signed a multi-year strategic alliance that will introduce new official Disneyland Paris versions of the iconic PANDORA charms and a new retail location for Europe’s number one tourist destination.

The Disney PANDORA collection is a jewellery assortment available at Pandora stores worldwide that also offers a selection of exclusive Disney-themed charms available only in Walt Disney Parks and Resorts. As part of this alliance relationship, PANDORA’s core collection at Disneyland Paris is available at five merchandise locations with each location offering a different experience to highlight the range of charms and bracelets inspired by Disney Characters like Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and the iconic Disney Princesses. The PANDORA collection will also soon be available for sale in its own unique retail location in Walt Disney Studios Park which opens in April.

This new alliance relationship names PANDORA as the official sponsor of Disney Illuminations, an unforgettable nightly show that brings together groundbreaking special effects and impressive fireworks to transform Sleeping Beauty Castle before taking guests on a journey through beloved Disney stories.

“PANDORA’s arrival at our resort is fantastic news for our guests and our fans,” said Francesca Romana Gianesin, Vice President of Corporate Alliances at Disneyland Paris. “We share a common passion for creating special moments and crafting unforgettable memories.”

This strategic alliance is part of a broader agreement with The Walt Disney Company. PANDORA first entered into a strategic Corporate Alliance with Disney in August 2014. Under the terms of the agreement, PANDORA created an original collection of Disney-themed jewellery, which is since sold in the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. and Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, Calif., as well as in PANDORA stores throughout the US, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Central America and the Caribbean. The alliance was then extended in November 2015 to include the Asia Pacific region.

“We are excited about this great opportunity to now have one of our store locations in such a beautiful setting as the Walt Disney Studios Park,” said Delphine Medaouri, Pandora France Managing Director. “Our customers will be able to have a new experience in a place that perfectly matches the values of PANDORA.”

New Must Have Millennial Pink Ears and Spirit Jersey Arriving at Disney Parks

Millennial Pink is the new Black and now you can sport the trendy shade with a variety of stylish new merchandise from Disney Parks; including Millennial Pink Ears and Spirit Jersey this April and the already released MagicBand.

A millennial pink headband will first debut exclusively at World of Disney in Downtown Disney District at the Disneyland Resort this Sunday.

Additional locations at Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resorts will carry the sequined headband starting in mid-April.

“We experiment with popular color trends when designing merchandise for Disney Parks,” explained Jeanne Lewis from the headwear development team. “With its soft, blush hue, millennial pink is one of the hottest colors in the market, making the new headband an on-trend, must-have item for springtime visits.”

The colors popularity is rivaled only by the rose gold trend, which Jeanne was also the driving force behind. The wildly popular rose gold headband introduced last fall, which inspired apparel, jewelry and even tasty treats created especially for Disney Parks. The new sequin-filled headband gives a nod to the rose gold-dusted original, while setting the stage for additional color-trend headbands arriving later this year.

In mid-April, the headband will be joined by another beloved apparel item at Disney Parks, a new millennial pink Spirit Jersey.

“We know Guests enjoy creating fashionable looks using products designed to complement each other. We closely aligned the launch of [Spirit Jerseys] with the headband so Guests could make fun outfits for spring,” said women’s apparel merchandiser Angelique Vu.

These 100% cotton, pullover tops have theme park logos printed on the front. Pink glitter puff ink lettering of the respective Disney Resort destination is emblazoned across the back of these long sleeve shirts.

Guests visiting Walt Disney World Resort have one additional millennial pink accessory to complete any outfit—a retail MagicBand 2 currently available in select merchandise locations.

With the innovation of MagicBand 2, guests can use this MagicBand and others to unlock the magic of a Disney vacation—from skipping the front desk and going directly to your resort room, effortless theme-park entry, to FastPass+ redemption and Disney PhotoPass association.

While the retail MagicBand is currently available online, look for the millennial pink headband and Spirit Jerseys to be added to ShopDisney.com and Shop Disney Parks at a future date this spring.
