These Mickey Mouse Minimalist Headphones Are Perfect

January 17, 2017

These Mickey Mouse Minimalist Headphones from Cotton On are giving me life right now! They are incredibly adorable, and well, just perfect. They are Mickey, but not cartoony at all, I’m in love!

These too cute for words headphones come from Cotton On, an Australian retail chain that has stores throughout the United States. It is known for its fashion forward clothing for young men, women, and children and giving back with their philanthropic foundation. The head phones are simple, but sturdy and come in gold, or black. They are on the smaller side, and come from the brand’s Mickey and Friends kids collection, but are still able to fit young adults. They have some of the cutest Disney Licensed products I have seen though, very sophisticated touches, and not overly cartoonish.

They have all kinds of fun Disney accessories in this minimalist Mickey style, including Mickey ear notebooks! They also come in black and gold, and match the headphones perfectly!

What do you think of these show stopping Mickey Mouse Minimalist Headphones?

Atlanta Braves Spring Training Leaving Walt Disney World

January 17, 2017

The Atlanta Braves are in contract negotiations with Sarasota County Florida to build a new spring-training facility in the city of North Port which is just south east of Sarasota.

Presently the Braves hold their spring training at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports in Walt Disney World and according to the contract could move to the new location as early as 2019.

According to a post by Tom Harmer a Sarasota County Administrator on their website:

“There’s still a lot of work to do to finalize the terms, agreements and approvals necessary, but this announcement is a major step forward in the efforts to bring the Braves to our area.”

No official word has been released by Disney as of yet but the Braves spokeswoman Beth Marshall confirmed the announcement to the The Atlanta Journal-Constitution saying: “We have entered into exclusive negotiations with plans of it being our spring training home.”

Makes you wonder if the Braves do leave will Disney try to bring another team to take their place?

ESPN Wide World of Sports has been the home of the Braves Spring Training since 1997.

Characters in Flight Gets a New Look

January 17, 2017

It’s long been an icon of Disney Springs (Formerly Downtown Disney), and Disney announced today the Characters in Flight Hot Air Balloon has gotten a completely new look.

Apparently the ballon gets renovated every 4 years, and Matthieu Gobbi, General Manager for Aerophile (the group responsible for operating the balloon), shed some light on the update; stating “the new balloon envelope was inspired by the springs and the element of water – it’s very coherent, as the balloon floats in the air, then lands on the water of Lake Buena Vista.”

The experience of taking a flight up to 400 feet in the air remains unchanged. Adult pricing is $20 per person and children (ages 3-8) are $15 each. Tip: visit before 10:00 a.m. and tickets are only $10 per person, regardless of age. The location opens daily at 8:30 a.m., weather permitting, and wait times are typically shorter earlier in the day.

Gone are the Disney Characters that we all knew and loved, and in is the new “look” of Disney Springs. What do you think of the balloon’s new look?

Valentine’s Day and City Tsum Tsum Sets have Arrived for Tsum Tsum Tuesday

By

Danielle

-

January 17, 2017

It’s the third Tuesday of the month, and that means it’s another Tsum Tsum Tuesday! This week love is in the air with a stackably sweet Valentine’s Day set. You can also fill up your Tsum Tsum passport with new sets inspired by cities across the globe.

Mickey and Minnie Mouse ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Valentine’s Day

Enjoy the sweet smell of romance with this Mickey and Minnie Mouse ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Valentine’s Day 2017 Set. Chocolates are a popular gift on Valentine’s Day, which is why these two chocolate-scented sweethearts make the perfect present. I think this is one of the cutest Tsum Tsum Tuesday releases today.

Mickey and Minnie Mouse ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Hawaii Set

Mickey and Minnie enjoy a Hawaiian holiday with this Mini ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Set. Dressed as a couple of locals with their Polynesian print outfits, Mickey is all set to hang ten while Minnie has her snorkel at the ready for some diving.

Mickey and Minnie Mouse ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Chicago Set

Mickey and Minnie provide a taste of the Windy City with this Mini ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Chicago Set. Minnie looks deliciously cute as a deep dish pizza while Mickey is a Chicago-style dog in this set that comes in a special ”L” Train box.

Mickey and Minnie Mouse ”Tsum Tsum” Plush New York Set

Bite-size Mickey pays homage to the Big Apple as he and Minnie take a trip to New York with this mini ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Set. Sporting a classic New York tourist shirt, Minnie joins Mickey for a cab ride in the novelty presentation box.

Mickey and Minnie Mouse ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Paris Set

Bonjour from Mickey and Minnie who look at home as a couple of Parisians in this Mini ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Set. Enjoy visiting Europe with the stackably soft sweethearts who come in a special presentation box featuring the Eiffel Tower.

Mickey and Donald ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Italy Set

Mickey and Donald are inspired by the saying, ”When in Rome, do as the Romans do,” with this Mini ”Tsum Tsum” Plush Italy Set. The stackably soft tourists are transformed into a couple of locals with this set, which comes in a special bus box.

Although this one is in the City Sets, and talks about Rome in the description, they’ve decided to call it “Italy”, which last I checked was a country.

Mickey and Minnie Mouse ”Tsum Tsum” Plush London Set

Minnie is crowned as the Queen and Mickey joins the Coldstream Guards as the pair take a trip to England in this Mini ”Tsum Tsum” Plush London Set. The stackably soft characters come in a special London-themed presentation box.

From the city sets I love the boxes for Paris and London, I think it was a fun idea incorporating famous landmarks into the packaging. The Italy set has Donald in it, which is a cute change from the Mickey and Minnie pairings in all the other sets. I’m most excited to check out the Valentine’s Day set, to see how much like chocolate they really smell!

Which collection is your favorite release this Tsum Tsum Tuesday?
