The Disney Store at 30
This year, while I celebrated turning 29, The Disney Store celebrated their 30th. The first store opened on March 28th 1987 in Glendale, California but it would be a few years before the first one appeared in the UK which opened in London the November of 1990. Ever since then they’ve been a fantastic treat to find in many cities across the UK, There are currently 42 stores across the UK and you can guarentee whenever LM and I are near one we’ll be popping in. The Cast Members and displays make it a magical place to be and we always get our Disney fix. As you can guess, Disney…

Little Miss Cosplays – Belle
Growing up we really didn’t have much money. For a long time my mum didn’t work, then when she started to work she went to retrain as a teacher. We didn’t have a car for a long time although both my parents could drive. Until I was 9 I had never been abroad and even our first trip (which was to Walt Disney World) was because my dad had been made redundant. I wouldn’t say we ever went without though. Any spare money my parents had, they spent on my sister and I, and when I became a mother I vowed I would do the same. But as a single…

Little Miss Cosplays – New at Closet Geek
Goodness it’s been forever since our last edition of Little Miss Cosplays but a lot of that has been to do with the lighting in my lounge and the fact I felt disillusioned with photography for a while. But since setting myself a challenge of improving my photography skills in 2017 I’ve dug it out and dusted it off, ready to practice my portraits again. And what better way to practice than to take some photos of the fantastic dresses Bee has been working on for Closet Geek? Peter Pan Inspired Dress* RRP £25 We all know how much Little Miss loves Peter Pan so I think this Peter Pan…

Shopping Spotlight – Magical Things
One of my favourite things about Disney becoming so mainstream is the abundance of creative people who are able to make more and more unique Disney products available to buy. As we all know Little Miss loves Peter Pan and Wendy but there isn’t that much merchandise available especially of Wendy and especially for children. If it wasn’t for these creative people and platforms such as Etsy, Little Miss wouldn’t have a Wendy dress, we would be seriously lacking in Peter Pan art work and we’d struggle to find shirts and accessories of our favourite character and film. Because of this I am a huge supporter of small businesses that…

20 Facts About My Disney Life Tag
Today while I was stressing over editing all my photos for future blog posts, I came up with the idea of a new tag, the 20 Facts About My Disney Life tag. Basically the basis of this tag is to share 20 facts about how Disney impacts on your life. There are no questions, you just share your facts with some photos then tag some other people to do it. I love reading facts about me tags as it gives you an insight into their lives, but I think I’d love reading Disney facts even more. It gives you a great prompt for conversation with other Disney bloggers and may…
