disney week: disney inspired purses (new in)

Disney week continues here on the creation of beauty is art. Yesterday was all about a Beauty and the Beast themed Charmed Aroma candle. The latest theme week post is all about Disney-themed purses. Though there are many different purses in my collection (in various shapes, sizes and colours)...there is something extra special about something Disney themed or Disney inspired. It can add an undeniable dose of magic to any and all outfits. There are several Disney purses already in my life. For instance, the red and white polka dot purse my husband bought for me on our honeymoon in Walt Disney World and the Bread and Butterfly shaped purse inspired by Alice in Wonderland. In the last several months, two more Disney inspired purses have been added to that collection. This is all thanks to my mom, who has fallen in love with online shopping, and has spoiled me with some fabulous Disney items. They make me smile and make me hopeful for the future. Maybe one day, I will have a chance to wear them on a Disney vacation or even to the movie theatre. A girl can dream! Here are the the two new purses...

Disney Purse #1: Compact and Cute Mickey Mouse Purse

First up is this cute and compact Mikey Mouse themed purse. This would be ideal to take out for short trips to the grocery store or to dinner. Any time you would only need to carry the essentials: keys, cards, phone, lipstick. This is small but is still roomy enough to carry those must-have items with ease. It has a long adjustable strap and comes in a faux leather. This is comfortable to use and carry around...though I haven't had a lot of opportunities to use it yet. Only the occasional walk around the neighborhood! The Mickey Mouse design is super cute and his ears are made out of a soft black velvet material. I love the fact that this purse is simple but still has lots of personality thanks to that adorable Mickey Mouse face on the corner. This is a great size for those quick, everyday trips, and effortlessly incorporates a little Disney magic.  

Disney Purse #2: Disney Pin Trading Bag

Fun fact: I am obsessed with Disney pins. Obsessed. I had always tried to avoid them at the Walt Disney World theme parks (because of the costs associated with building a collection)...but something happened. When my husband and I went on our honeymoon almost six years ago, my parents surprised us with a Disney welcome package. It had all sorts of things, like snacks, a cooler bag, and a trading pin starter set. Well, once I started, I could not stop! (You can always take a peek at my Disney Pin Collection video from a few years ago for proof of that.) Well....more recently, Disney released a number of different Disney pin purses. There were smaller bags, this medium sized bag and even a backpack! As you can see on the front of the purse itself...there are small holes. The back of the pin goes right through that hole and the pins can be used decoratively. I put a few different pins on as an example. However, if I was actually on vacation, I would probably re-theme my Disney pin bag each day to compliment either my outfit or the specific theme park I was visiting. Oh, the possibilities! 

These Disney accessories have been shining a light on some otherwise cloudy days. It has certainly taken a toll on me to not be able to go and do anything, to be inside all day, to not see friends, and to miss out on experiences. I know that I am not alone in that. But these Disney inspired purses make me smile because they force me to think about all of the happy moments that are waiting on the other side of this. One day, there will be nights out and vacations. There will be concerts and gatherings and all kinds of special events. And when that time comes? These purses will be by my side.

What do you think of these purses? Do you have any Disney inspired accessories?
