I recently saw a post about a blog birthday that immediately rang a bell, and I realised that my blog is also celebrating its anniversary in a few days. That day has now come, and today marks exactly 13 years since I started writing this blog. It's incredible to even write that down. It has already reached the age of a teenager. 😃

I still remember the excitement and how I started writing first just for myself, then also for my dear Readers.

This blog has seen so much. I've written posts from different locations, in different languages, I've grown both in my personal life and in my career during this time, and it's also changed who was by my side while working on them. There was a time for DIYs, for sharing my favorite celebrity outfits, but also for participating in blogger events and writing about deeper topics. The blog also received some blogger awards back when these were in vogue.

The world has changed, too. Years ago, blogs were so popular that we had a huge community. Then it slowly shifted to other platforms, but there are some bloggers who stayed and still enjoy the beauty of this platform. Now we've even entered a chapter in which many published texts are written by non-humans, but I remain true to my blog and my values. There is, namely, one thing that has not changed in me during this time: my love of writing and being creative. Even though I don't have as much time for this blog as I did years ago, it will always remain my favorite corner of the internet.

Here's to the past 13 years and I hope for many more. 🥂 Happy birthday to P&P style. 🎂

Lots of love,

I already have a few Disney-themed selections on the blog, but today there's another one, because you can never have enough of Disney.  :)

This month we celebrate - among other things - some Disney-related anniversaries.

It may sound unbelievable, but Donald Duck made his first appearance in "The Wise Little Hen" 87 years ago, on 9 June 1934.

Daisy Duck is slightly younger, and she too celebrates her anniversary this month. She appeared under her now familiar name in "Mr. Duck Steps Out" 81 years ago, on 7 June 1940.

The "Hunchback of Notre Dame" was also released in June, more precisely on 21 June 1996, and thus celebrates its 25th anniversary in a couple of days.

Last but not least, "Cars" celebrates not one but three anniversaries this month. The film was released in many countries this month in 2006, exactly 15 years ago. "Cars 2" also came out this month in 2011 and celebrates its 10th anniversary while "Cars 3" was released in June 2017.

I don't have Cars or Donald Duck on the selection below, but I hope you enjoy the items that are from the Primark website.
