NEW LINE OF CHARM BRACELETS@JAPANESE DISNEY STORE "Let's Charm Party!"

Hi Disney Guys and Gals!

Wow, I've been posting alot, haven't I?

Choose from charms of your favourite characters! They may be small but the combinations are endless!

I just received an email yesterday about a new range available at the Japanese Disney Store (both online and instore). Charm bracelets are really popular and it seems that Disney Japan have hopped onto the bandwagon with their new range of charm bracelets and charms called "Charm Party" (or, if you want to be Engrishy "Let's Charm Party!")

PIXIE HOLLOW'S ANIMAL-TASTIC HALLOWEEN EVENT!

Hi Disney Guys and Gals!

A selection of Animal Costumes currently available to Members!

I'm a big fan of Pixie Hollow - in fact, of Disney Fairies in general. I love playing this game when I've got some free time. It's really entertaining and you get to meet some cool Disney fans, too. But what I love the most are the Seasonal Events they hold and all the fun that comes with them. New outfits, costumes, games, quests and the Hollow itself changes to suit the season, too!

What with Halloween being my favourite holiday, I've been anticipating the PH Halloween event for some months now. It began yesterday and I am not disappointed. It seems that my first Halloween at PH is the best one yet! The Hollow is awash with autumnal colours and there are Halloween-y decorations everywhere you turn. In short, it's a dream come true for Halloween fans!

I'm going to share with you some of the parts of the event. If PH isn't your thing, feel free to skip! For those who are interested, click "read more" to continue!

A RECENT ADDITION TO MY DISNEY CHRISTMAS WISH LIST!

Hi Disney Guys and Gals!

Well Christmas is slowly but steadily approaching us and the days are getting darker and chillier... It's always this initial onset of wintery-ness that gets me thinking of my Christmas Wish List. I know, sounds a bit naughty, but I like to plan ahead and my family/partner always ask me what I'd like.. rather than buying me toiletries/giving gift certificates... so it's become more of a necessity than anything.

I was browsing the official TDS Duffy site last night and came across the Duffy and Shellie May (Disney Bears) Christmas Goods and instantly fell in love with the Shellie May Winter Costume..

Shellie May Winter 2011 Costume.

My "Standard Series" Shellie May is still quite naked and, on top of this, I'm actually taking her to Disneyland Resort Paris with me in January for the first time (seeing as Duffy will be making his appearance there as a Meet and Greet!) and I thought, "She needs an outfit!" And, lo and behold, they're releasing this adorable set in November. It's pretty kawaii and is perfect for my Winter Trip to the Magic Kingdom!

Now, I just need to find a TDR Shopping Service that doesn't charge me the Earth.. Hmmm.. That could be an issue!

DISNEY MOBILE - TWO NEW SMART PHONES ADDED TO THE LINEUP.

Hi Disney Guys and Gals!

Disney Mobile Japan have recently announced two new Android cellphones that have been released this season. They look amazing! The official site has more information, but I'll share some images from my Disney.co.jp newsletter I received on the 14th.

"DISNEY MOBILE" IN JAPAN - Another reason why I love Japan!

Hi Disney Guys and Gals!

Did you know that, in Japan, Disney has their very own Mobile phone company? And that they produce some of the most kawaii cellphones ever? Yep, I'm not kidding!

When I was in Japan, I was fortunate enough to be in the position to purchase one. It's pretty difficult for non-Japanese to get a cell in Japan, unless you have a visa and all that. So.. I was very happy that I was able to get the cell I'd been obsessing over for the past year! This was back in 2009..

Now, Disney Mobile Japan has released their addition to the "Smart Phone" market. It's a Disney-themed smart phone!

Take a look..

Taken from the Disney Mobile Site.

Yep, that's the Disneyland Resort in California! For some reason the chose the USA parks over their own, which they haven't done before! Isn't it just amazing?

If you click HERE you can see more photos of the phone and some of it's features...

FANTASTIC PLUTO FRIDAY WEEK 1!

Week 1: Why I love Pluto

• He's a dog, my favourite animal.
• He's a Bloodhound, my favourite breed of dog.
• He's yellow, an awesome colour.
• He's inquisitive and cunning.
• He's loyal and noble.
• He's always getting into trouble.
• He's got a short-temper with others but by the end of the cartoon, he's friends with them.
• He's very special to myself and my fiance.
• He was one of the first characters I met at Disneyland Paris when I first visited as an 8 year old.
• His cartoons are always really entertaining and amusing.

Who is your favourite Disney character? Why do you love them? :)

I think I've died and gone to Disney-Heaven...

Hi Disney Guys and Gals,

I just found the most amazing charm bracelet ever.. No, seriously. For me, anyway...

Check it out..!

I found it on The Bradford Exchange website earlier.. I'm not sure how much longer they'll sell it for.. but I really hope I can get myself one!

More pics beneath the cut..!

Pixie Hollow: My characters.

Hi Disney boys and girls,

I thought today I'd talk a bit about my latest Disney obsession - the Pixie Hollow online game! I know, I know. Many of you, especially those of you from the USA, will have possibly been playing this game since 2008.. Well, I've recently discovered it. I play the USA version despite being a Brit! We have a Pixie Hollow for the UK, too.. but it's more like the old "Pixie Pages" from the old PH.com. It's nowhere near as good!

So, after a few days of playing, I couldn't resist any longer; I simply had to have a membership account! So out came the good ole' credit card and in a few minutes I was enjoying all the fab benefits of membership. It seems, sadly, without having a membership you are very limited to what you can do. (Like you can't take part in the Sports Camp which is so much fun! Nor can you dye your hair, buy new clothes, etc etc) I thought, seeing as I was nearly done with University, that I'd treat myself. It was around 55$ for a year. Not too bad! There are so many events, it's so busy and filled with lots of things to do! It's a very friendly, action-packed site where I can gurantee you'll never be bored!

I'll just quickly talk about my three girls and then maybe, if you want to check the site out, or if you've already joined, perhaps we can discuss the game sometime! Also, if you want to add me as a friend and stuff, go ahead!

Ruby Neverheart: Animal Talent:

Ruby is my first fairy and I've made the most progress with her. She's got a very nice house, which is why the background, compared with other two, is a lot busier. She's currently level 14 I believe and has completed most of the quests.

She's a very girly animal talent, unlike Fawn!

I've enjoyed changing her hair so many times, but I think this latest hair is very 1940's-esque and suits my Ruby somehow. I kinda wish she had a different last name, as this was my first fairy and I hadn't decided on naming them with last names that relate to their talent. Oh well. Wish they had a "re-naming" option, lol.

Here is Ruby's Pixie Page, please leave a message!

Ivy Oakheart - Garden Talent:

Ivy is a Garden talent, and, like Ruby, she is nothing like her famous fairy counterpart; Rosetta! In fact, I often feel that Ruby and Ivy were swapped at birth as they both seem like the other fairies talent. Ivy is very tomboy and down to earth. She doesn't care too much about fashion and tailoring. She actually prefers wearing her sports camp tracksuit, but I made her wear the only "cute" thing she owns!!

She's at level 6 right now, but I'm probably going to concentrate on levelling her up a bit this week and I'll see how it goes.

If you want to visit Ivy's Pixie Page, don't be shy! 

Emma Frostheart - Water Talent:

Emma is my most recent fairy and I've not really played with her too much. She's actually a bit of a snob. I based her, albeit loosely, upon Emma Frost.. so as you can imagine, she's not quite as easy to approach as the other two!

Again, she's actually pretty different from Silvermist!

She loves all things blue - and the ocasional white and purple. I think she's going to stay blonde - she's the only one who I haven't dyed the hair of more than once! I quite like her curly blonde hair. Think she can keep it for now!

If you dare to visit the Emma Frost of PH, here is her page!

So that was my fairies! Please comment with your fairies!
