Treasure Tuesday, Disney Couture Enamel Bangle: PAMELA PEKERMAN

Dear Bagistas,
I’ve been preoccupied and neglecting my daily accessory picks! No good. Back today with a playful Treasure Tuesday find from Disney Couture. There is a magic to the mere concept of anything Disney that makes everyone feel like a little bit of Tinkerbelle’s fairy dust has been sprinkled over them – or maybe it’s just me. What can I say; I’m a kid for life. Give me a tiara, cotton candy and a front row seat to the Electric Parade any day. But, back to the baubles. Disney Couture has a wonderful selection of enamel bangles with uplifting quotes such as “Believing is just the beginning” and “Have faith in your dreams”. During these times of gloom and doom, we should all sprinkle a little fairy dust within our hearts and what better way to channel us back to our youth – when we truly believed we were in Mickey’s Club House and Peter Pan could fly – then stacking two or more of these bracelets on our arm? At $48, this makes for a nice holiday gift for any woman on your list.
