Disneyland Paris Dooney & Bourke Retro Tote Bag Available Online

9 May 2013 by Suzannah Otis Leave a Comment

A friend online had visited Disneyland Paris over the summer and shared this adorable design, and now it’s available at the
DisneyStore.com. It’s kind of funny that they are using the “retro” design also used at Disneyland here in California and at Walt Disney World, since Disneyland Paris opened in 1991 and that isn’t exactly retro (I mean, I know I’m getting older, but it wasn’t THAT long ago that graduated high school 😉 ) No matter, it’s still a cute design, with bright colors and some favorite attractions at both Disneyland Paris and the Walt Disney Studios next door, in celebration of Disneyland Paris’ 20th Anniversary last month.

Disneyland Paris Retro Dooney & Bourke — Disneyland Paris Tote Bag By Dooney & Bourke – Retro is $349

What do you think? Will you pick up this Disneyland Paris Tote Bag By Dooney & Bourke? I know my rule is I can’t get a location-specific design unless I’ve been there. Which is why I did not get a Disney Cruise Line Dooney until I set sail on the Dream last November (I’d been on the Magic but that was before the Dooney’s existed!) and did not feel like I could get a Disneyland retro design until my first visit to Disneyland back in 2011. (I still didn’t get one, maybe this year will be the year!). How about you? If this design isn’t for you, never fear, there is a return of the Mickey & Minnie black and white Comic design out now too, as an online exclusive. And there’s also the new design coming out this summer! What’s your favorite?

NEW Disney “Oz: The Great and Powerful” Merchandise

10 March 2013 by Suzannah Otis 1 Comment

The new Disney movie Oz: The Great and Powerful had its big premiere yesterday. I had the chance to see the movie during a Disney Parks Blog event and the movie is a real feast for the eyes! The visual effects and costumes are amazing while the story gives you both laughs and tender moments. With a new movie, we luckily always get some new merchandise! Oz merchandise started to pop up at the Disney Parks in the recent weeks and offer something for both older and younger fans!

I found these things at Uptown Jewelers in Magic Kingdom, Mouse Gear in Epcot and World of Disney and Tren-D at Downtown Disney.

Disney Oz The great and powerful merchandise — “Things Are Not Always As They Seem” Adult T-shirt

This week I also made a trip to the Disney Store and found even more Oz merchandise. The best thing is that most of the merchandise you find there is unique to the Disney Store. The adult Limited Edition Costumes of Glinda and The Wicked Witch of The West were really impressing as you usually can’t find adult costumes in the Disney Store.

So for you guys who have seen the movie, what did you think? Anybody thinking about dressing up as Glinda or the Wicked Witch of the West for next Halloween?

Vera Bradley Partners With Disney for New Handbags and Accessories

5 March 2013 by Suzannah Otis 2 Comments

That’s right, Disney has done it again, partnering with an extremely popular fashion brand to make a winning combination of style and whimsy. With the incredible success of the Disney Dooney & Bourke collaboration, it’s no surprise that Vera Bradley was next in line for a Disney twist. I know as I walked through the parks, Vera Bradley is what I see most aside from the Disney Dooneys. Now, I think the parks will be a colorful, floral explosion of Disney fun!

For those unfamiliar with Vera Bradley, the designs are known for floral and bold, colorful prints in a soft fabric style. Each bag usually has as much function as it does form, with pockets for cell phones, strap options, and, best of all – they are machine washable! I know that is a big concern with accessories you take on a vacation, especially to Disney Parks where bags can take a beating getting put in and out of attractions. I think the Vera Bradley and Disney partnership will be a long and successful one!

Here is some more information from Steven Miller’s Disney Parks Blog post today:

Disney Theme Park Merchandise worked closely with Vera Bradley to develop two new patterns that will appear on items this fall. I spoke with Cathy Dawson, merchandiser for accessories at Disney Parks, about these colorful additions. “We are thrilled to introduce Vera Bradley to our accessories assortment,” exclaimed Cathy.

“In recent years, we’ve seen several guests in our parks and resorts sporting fun, colorful bags by Vera Bradley. Even our Disney Cruise Line team recently added some items by Vera Bradley to the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy. We thought it would be wonderful to add a splash of Disney to these popular and colorful accessory items.”

The new Disney-inspired patterns have names, which is something Vera Bradley does for all of their patterns. Cathy said the black pattern is called “Midnight with Mickey,” while the pink pattern is named “Just Mousing Around.” These patterns will be seen on duffel bags, totes, cosmetic bags and more.

When released this fall, guests will find these items at select locations in Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resorts. They will also be sold via the Disney Parks online store at a future date.

What do you think of the new collaboration? Are you a current Vera Bradley fan or will this make you a convert?

Zannaland would like to welcome a new writer and roving reporter – Corinne Andersson, who will be bringing us merchandise updates and other Walt Disney World news as she roams the parks. You can find great videos from Corinne and her husband Daniel at their DisneyLifestylers YouTube channel. Welcome, Corinne!

This week while running around the parks looking for merchandise I found these really beautiful Harvey’s for Disney Couture Princess and Villains seatbeltbags! Princess and Villains merchandise are very popular right now in the parks.

The bags come in four different styles and all have a princess and villain featured on them to fit the Good vs. Evil theme. They measure around 11”(L) x 11”(H) and are made from durable seatbelt, which makes them the perfect bag to bring with you to the parks! The inside have 1 zip pocket and special storage for things like your cell phone. Price is $178.

Right now I have only spotted these bags in Tren-D at Downtown Disney and Uptown Jewelers at Magic Kingdom but you can also buy them directly from Harvey’s own site.

Sleeping Beauty Aurora and Maleficent

Little Mermaid Ariel and Ursula

Snow White and Evil Queen

Cinderella and Wicked Stepmother

So which one is your favorite Princess/Villain bag? My favorite is probably the Ariel/Ursula bag!

20th Anniversary Walt Disney World Marathon Disney Dooney and Bourke Bags

20 November 2012 by Suzannah Otis 6 Comments

Keeping up with the tradition of limited edition Disney Dooney and Bourke handbag designs for the Run Disney half marathon races, Disney has come out with a new design for the 20th anniversary of the Walt Disney World Marathon.

A blue bag with various Mickey Mouse silhouettes in different designs, this bag is less about racing icons and more about the Big Cheese himself. There is one version of Mickey in a running pose, which is what sets this design apart from previous Mickey designs. There will also be a special WDW Marathon hang tag as was on the previous RunDisney Dooney & Bourke limited edition bags. limThe pricing for the bags are: $280.00 for the Dooney & Bourke Satchel Purse and $200.00 for the Dooney & Bourke Letter Carrier Purse. The prices include tax and a non-refundable processing fee.

This time around Disney has gotten smart and set up the bags for pre-purchase at their active.com race registration site. There is a maximum 2 bag purchase per registration. Hopefully these new stipulations will ensure less eBay poachers and more fans of the bags themselves.

NEW Disney Dooney & Bourke Cruise Line Nylon Backpack

13 November 2012 by Suzannah Otis 1 Comment

I was recently on the Disney Dream, (for the first time ever!) and of course, had to check out the Disney Dooney & Bourke options on board. The first night we were at sea and the stores were open, I got some photos of the Disney Dooney DCL bags but nothing jumped out at me as a ‘must-get’. Then, we were at Nassau and Castaway Cay for the next two days and the shops were closed tight. On our last day at sea, I sauntered back in and something caught my eye. The new nylon Disney Dooney backpacks which we’d seen a few months ago at the TrenD debut and meet-up, were in front of me – in the Disney Cruise Line Fantasy Inaugural design! This design was already my favorite, but it was hard for me to justify another bag when I rarely use something big in the parks, and the smaller sizes didn’t really show much of the beautiful design. This backpack called to me, however and I knew then, it had to be mine! 😉

DCL Disney Dooney — Disney Cruise Line Disney Dooney & Bourke nylon backpack

Isn’t it adorable? It’s got a gorgeous hot pink lining too, with ample pockets inside. I just love the color palette and how it incorporates all the Disney Cruise Line ships of the Magic, Wonder, Dream and Fantasy, as well as little touches of things you’ll find on the ships. This is the same design from the Fantasy Inaugural, without the Inaugural hang-tag addition. It’s the perfect size for the parks and the non-leather straps and nylon fabric make it lightweight and easy to care for. I’ve used it in the parks only one time and was stopped by about 10 people telling me how adorable it was and how that was exactly the purse they wanted. Definitely a fun accessory!

I’ll have more DCL Dooney updates from my cruise coming up, but I had to share this one first!
