This may be the inner child in me but this new movie will definitely be on my “to watch” list. Later this year sees the release of the new Winnie The Pooh movie. Featuring all the old favourites Winnie, Eeyore, Tigger, Roo and Christopher Robin are all back to entertain and enchant kids and adults with a new adventure.
The official trailer for the latest instalment in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise has just been released. It looks like the fourth movie in the series, “On Stranger Tides” is back with a big bang and sure to live up to the standards that the others held so well.
The fourth movie sees the return of the quirky captain Jack Sparrow when he crosses paths with a woman from his past played by Penélope Cruz. She plays a ruthless con artist who’s using him to find the legendary Fountain of Youth. When she forces him aboard the ship of the formidable pirate Blackbeard played by Ian McShane, Jack finds himself on an action packed adventure.
On Stranger Tides is being shot in 3D and is set for release in 2011. Are you going to be first in line to see it??
Nothing says Christmas like curling up infront of the fire and watching Christmas movies and cartoons. I came across this and just smiled instantly. There’s really nothing like the magic of Disney characters is there??
If you’re still doing some Christmas gift shopping this year why not get your child a costume of their favourite character to play dress up? And to make it that bit sweeter, we’ve lowered our shipping costs so you can save even more money when ordering with us! You can find the new shipping charges on our Shipping page.
Already taking the American cinema screens by storm is the newest edition to the Disney Pixar’s Toy Story series of movies- Toy Story 3.

Now you can get in on the action with our range of offically licenced Toy Story costumes. Throw a Toy Story themed party for your children, or for adults a Disney movie theme ( we also stock officially licenced Alice in Wonderland Costumes) and get into character and stun party-goers!

Another event happening at the Cavan Summer Festival is the “Mad Hatter Party” Competition.

Blow the competition out of the water by wearing our “Alice in Wonderland” theme costumes and also our range of officially licenced Disney Mad Hatter costumes and hats.
Stuck for costume ideas for the next fancy dress party you’re invited to? Well, we’ve done all the hard work for you, here are the most popular costumes on thecostumeshop.ie to give you some ideas and have you looking the part at the next event.
2. Pirate’s Treasure Costume- Pirate costumes are always a great idea, this particular costume has some lovely detailing, and the bright pink shade is perfect to make you stand out in the crowd. Make sure to add the finishing touch to the costume by adding the pink bow stockings!
3. Snow White Costume- Instantly recognisable, Snow White is always a classic. Finish off the outfit with the red bow stockings, or add some flare to the costume with a red petticoat.
4. Nun Costume- Another classic, the nun’s costume is always a hit at costume events. Dress it up with cross necklaces and you’re all set. If you’re feeling a bit daring, try something different in our Naughty Nun costume.
5. US Navy Officer Costume- Channel your inner Top Gun in this high quality, all white naval costume, complete with Hat and Gloves. Finish off the look with our Aviator Glasses.
