My favorite Disney Parks pastime isn’t riding attractions, people-watching, or even sampling all the delicious food (although that is a close second). I find I spend a good portion of my time just meandering through shops. And while that isn’t an option at present, the next best thing is scrolling through the seemingly endless categories of shopDisney. Join me in a little virtual window-shopping, won’t you? There are some finds and some parks related items below . . .
Disney But Make It Neon
The Neon Blue Walt Disney World Spirit Jersey ($69.99) practically screams for a black light. Prefer to call Disneyland your home? There is a matching Spirit Jersey for that Park, too.
Kids get in on the “visible from space” Spirit Jersey game with this Neon Yellow Mickey Mouse Disneyland Spirit Jersey for Kids ($49.99). Those lucky young ‘un’s get to have classic Mickey Mouse on the front of their Spirit Jersey. Of course, the color is more highlighter-like so I guess it’s a trade-off. As with the Neon Blue Adult Spirit Jersey, there is a versions for the other Park as well (in this case, Walt Disney World).
Not into Spirit Jerseys? Here’s a Neon Lime Walt Disney World T-Shirt ($24.99), instead. The shirt, along with its Disneyland equivalent, are a 100 percent cotton jersey knit fabric with a ribbed crew neck.
The Disneyland Resort Neon Belt Bag ($29.99) is a fitting accessory for the previous shirts, don’t you think? As you might expect, there is also a Walt Disney World version.
It’s not all apparel and accessories though. Also available in this color scheme is the Mickey Mouse Neon Vinyl Figure by Jerrod Maruyama ($29.99). This Special Edition 7-inch tall figure was created especially for Disney’s WonderGround Gallery. The figure comes packaged in a colorful window display box.
Apparel and Accessories Fit for a Tropical Hideaway
The Disney Parks Aloha Shirt ($59.99) will certainly keep you cooler – and not just from 100 percent woven cotton fabric. The print is covered with summery, Disney-themed treats. The iconic Mickey Bar is joined by a coconut beverage with pineapple mouse ears, what appears to be a Dole Whip, and several others.
Yes, there is one more Spirit Jersey! This one is the Dip Dye Spirit Jersey ($69.99). The Disneyland version is pictured below but there is also an accompanying Walt Disney World version. This one just screams summer to me. I always associated dip-dye/tie-dye shirts with summer camp. The Spirit Jersey takes it a step further by adding in (or should I say infusing?) hints of fruit into the lettering.
Hidden Mickeys are very much in season on the Mickey Mouse Icon Watermelon Belt Bag ($29.99). The outer panel is clear, which will be handy for bag checks once the Parks re-open. The Belt Bag is secured with a pink and metallic strap and dual-release clip with a plastic buckle.
The Mickey Mouse Pool Float Ear Headband ($29.99) is a combination of colorful fruit (with some Hidden Mickeys for good measure), pool inner tubes, and a Mickey Ear Headband. The “Ears” consist of the previously mentioned inflated inner tubes, covered in a fruity print. The side of the faux leather headband has the phrase “Sweet summer” printed on it.
The Mickey Mouse Pineapple Card Case ($14.99) would pair perfectly with the Mickey Mickey Mouse Pineapple Mini-Backpack from Loungefly but the latter is, at press time, sold out. But it is quite charming as a standalone accessory as well. And don’t you just love the print? The five-card slots on the front are secured with a Mickey Mouse pineapple tab with a metal snap closure. The backside of the case has an ID card window.
Who else thinks the birds on the Flamingo Halter Dress ($128) are reminiscent of that silly flamingo in Fantasia 2000? The print’s bright colors along with the dress’s sleeveless cut are a great fit for a summer BBQ or any outing when you want to kick your outfit up a notch. The bow at the back of the collar is secured with self-stick fabric so there’s no need to fret about tying it perfectly. This item is part of the Disney Parks Dress Shop Collection.
A Grab Bag of Goodies
Earth Day (April 22) is right around the corner and you can remind others of the occasion with these two timely shirts, the Bambi T-Shirt for Adults ($24.99) and Earth Day “Save Together” Tank Top for Women ($24.99). Both shirts are printed using eco-friendly water-based inks. I particularly like the Tank Top because of its nod to National Geographic (we’ve covered some of their cutest documentaries recently, so if you’re looking for something to watch while you’re at home, start here!).
The Winnie the Pooh Plush Fashion Bag ($49.99) from the Oh My Disney! Inspired by Collection is adorable cuddly yet a fully functional bag. Measuring 14 inches high, 12 inches wide, and 7 inches deep, there is plenty of room for all the essentials. Other features include a zip-top closure and a removable, adjustable shoulder strap. It totally reminds me fo those plush face purses of Duffy and Friends. What do you think?
That purse isn’t the only stuffed item in this post! We also have several new Open Edition Wishables ($9.99): a winking Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse in a pink dress, Pluto, and Donald Duck.
Also available is the Limited Release Wishables mystery bag from the Monster’s, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue Series ($9.99 each). As with the previous Wishables mystery bags, you don’t know which character you are getting. And unlike in the Parks, you can’t feel the bag to try to guess the character! Options in this mystery bag are Mike Wazowski, Roz, Boo, the Monstropolis Transit Authority (the attraction vehicle), along with one secret variant. Sulley is sold separately as a chaser and, at present time, out of stock.
