Last week, Michael Jackson’s documentary, This Is It, debuted in theaters across the globe.

And while its been months since MJ’s untimely passing, it seems as though he is more popular than ever.

The film grossed 20.7 million over Halloween weekend, but numbers were lower than what Sony anticipated. However, the film still took the number one spot.

In addition, the two week screening of the movie has been extended to Thanksgiving weekend.

The Chairman of Sony Pictures, Jeff Blake, states,

“In just 5 days, Michael Jackson’s THIS IS IT has become the highest grossing concert film of all time and we are elated by the response to this special film by fans, critics and moviegoers from all over the world. With this kind of global response, it’s clear that the motion picture deserves an extended run and we are going to do everything we can to make the film available to everyone who wants to see Michael Jackson’s THIS IS IT on the big screen.”

This news is music to MJ fans ears….

So if you haven’t seen the film, be sure to check it out..

Halloween is only a couple more weeks away and costume-related happenings are starting to pop up all around the country.  Here are a few stories from the East Coast that caught our eye as we prepare for the big dress-up holiday.  For Floridian dog owners, October 24th is a day to mark down on the calendar because that’s when Dogs For Life’s 8th Annual Howl-O-Ween Canine Costume Parade and Pet Expo takes place in Vero Beach.  Click here for more information on this delightful day of dog disguises and don’t forget to check out our selection of pet costumes to help your furry friend celebrate as well.  From the costume crime blotter, a Halloween shopper in South Carolina ended up in jail this week for trying to swipe a sexy outfit from her local mall.  The detail that elevates this above simple shoplifting is that it was a Police Officer Costume that she stuffed into her purse.  The Smoking Gun has a write-up on the incident, but we’ve got the Hot Cop Costumes that she wanted to get away with.  After a trip to the station we figure she got an up-close look at the Uniform and Accessories our boys in blue wear, so if she still wants to be a provocative policeman on Halloween, her outfit might be even more authentic post-arrest!

It’s 2009…and times have changed for our beloved Tinker Bell!

She’s been around for nearly 50 years,…still looking as youthful as ever…But one thing however, had to change.  Her outfit!

The famous sidekick is more than just pixie dust and smiles…her character has been transformed into a star in her own right.  With the launch of her straight to DVD computer animated series…with the latest installment, Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure, due Oct. 27….

Tinker Bell is closing out the year with a bang!

Which is all the more reason to debut a new look, especially since the DVD’s autumn release.

Pixar co-founder John Lasseter states,

“I began thinking what the costume design would be for each season,” he says. Since Lost Treasure is set in autumn, “the weather is cooler, and her outfit should reflect that.”

Thumbs Up!

We are fans of Tinker Bell’s new look and persona…but for those of you who prefer her vintage elegance…Check out our selection of Tinker Bell’s items and accessories:
