DISNEY’S TSUM TSUM AT SM ACCESSORIES KIDS

We were in Tokyo Japan Spring of 2016 and saw first hand how the Japanese love their theme parks ~ more so Disneyland and Disney Sea. They would come all donned in pairs or as a group in their favorite  characters, while touring Disney Parks. They are really so cute.

(Follow these links, if you missed our post on Tokyo Disneyland Resort >>>Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disney Sea).

One of the more famous shirts I have seen, were  "Tsum Tsum".  Tsum Tsum was first released in Japan in 2013 as  stuffed toys.  It was based on Disney and Pixar characters.

Tsum Tsum is derived from the Japanese verb Tsumu meaning “to stock” because these stuffed toys are designed to stock on top of each other.

The stuffed toys have become a hit, and have been sold by Disney in the United States, Disneyland Paris and South Korea. Tsum Tsum mobile games and icons for online chat were also developed and have become a hit.

The stuffed characters has eventually inspired apparel, accessories, footwear and other knickknacks faithful to the charm of the Tsum Tsum stuffed toys.

Denim and Blues Mania at SM Surplus Stores

Denim is simply timeless! 

Famous fashion designers like Jonathan Anderson (J.W.Anderson), Karl Lagerfeld (Chanel), and Nicolas Ghesquière (Louis Vuitton) have reinvented the denim as sexy, cutout slip dresses, striped boyfriends, and denim-as-swim in their collections. Ralph Lauren, on the other hand, goes for boardroom blues, redesigning denim as a three-piece suit.

The young and the stylish quickly picked up the trend with Bella Hadid looking runway ready with a distressed style, and Hailey Baldwin playing it cool in cut offs.

At Surplus, Denim is everywhere - think dresses, crop tops, cut offs, tunics, skirts, jackets and joggers with a whole new attitude. Distressed, skinny, slouchy, dark wash or faded-

wear it your way at Surplus.

The clothes celebrate the Blues trend - from light tones to dark hues. And the best way to rock this look is to simply stick with crisp white color or go double blue.

The Denim and Blues collection is available at Surplus stores located at most SM Supermalls and Walter Mart Makati.

Stay updated as Surplus goes interactive. Like them at Facebook and Twitter at SurplusPH and enjoy great fashion deals on Instagram at surplus_ph.

Egg-citing Surprises Awaits you at SM Snack Exchange and Toy Kingdom

Interesting facts about Easter:

• Eggs were formerly a forbidden food during the Lenten season? So to mark the end of the period of penance, people would paint, decorate and eat them on Easter as a form of celebration, hence came Easter Eggs. 

• Meanwhile, the Easter Bunny was brought to America German immigrants in the 1700s.  The Germans brought with them their tradition of an egg-laying hare called Osterhase or Oschter Haws. The German children would make nests in which these creatures could lay colored eggs.

• The fabled rabbit’s morning deliveries later on expanded to include chocolate, candy, and gifts, while  beautifully decorated baskets replaced nests.
