Disney Bounding

"Megan, what on earth is Disney Bound?" you ask, well luckily I actually know the answer to this: Disney bound was originally founded by a lovely woman named Leslie Kay who has a blog (http://disneybound.co) which gives you outfits in the themes of beloved Disney Characters to wear to the parks as us adults cannot dress up. I originally started these not knowing I was even Disney Bounding, I was "styling Disney characters to modern day" but that's basically what a Disney Bound is, and here are mine: 


Ariel: The Little Mermaid
I mean if you haven't gathered by now I pretty much adore all Disney princesses but Ariel is another one of my ultimate favorites! shes a spontaneous, independent, creative and positive soul who always inspired me to follow my dreams and do what I love without fear of judgement.


Belle: Beauty and The Beast
Belle is another if not my most favorite Disney princess, and I think alot of her self confidence and independence inspired me as a child to be the same. Belle doesn't conform to her small town and what they want her to be, instead she embraces who she really is and lives life the way she chooses, something that I feel so many young girls can look at and be empowered by.

                 


Marie: Aristocats 
Easily one of the most underrated Disney characters, she just oozes (for lack of a better word) grace and overall cuteness, I love that shes this little adorable bundle of joy yet so sassy and independent, it just goes to show that stereotypes are generally wrong and there is more to meet the eye in every person (or cat...).



Rapunzel: Tangled
Rapunzel is a princess I have only just now gotten the chance to admire and love, Tangled is still a relatively new Disney films as Disney films go but regardless she has quickly become one of my favorites just as much as the classic Princesses! In fact, I would go as far as to say that behind Belle she is my favorite princess! I adore her fun free spirit, her love and positivity as well as her strength and individualism.




Alice: Alice in Wonderland
Alice is one of my childhood favorites, I always related to her independent and imaginative personality and admired her stubbornness to not conform to boring society. When I was little I used to believe wonderland existed and would go on many mini adventures to find the door to wonderland of which my Nana told me was in her backyard! unfortunately I never found it, or did I? that's the wonder of Wonderland!


Tinkerbell: Peter Pan
Personality wise, Tinkerbell is probably spot on for me, with my hot temper and passion for things I love people have always compared me to Tink especially. What I adore about Tinkerbell the most is that she's this really sassy independent woman character that's celebrated for being so, she has evident flaws yet that doesn't tarnish her character in any way! she tells girls that its okay to sometimes be selfish or angry, those are normal regular emotions and you're not wrong or bad for feeling those emotions, as long as you're also a decent person then you can always celebrate who you are and love yourself- flaws and all!




Wendy Darling: Peter Pan
Out of all the Disney characters, I actually relate to Wendy the most! Her imagination and passion is boundless, I've forever had an overactive imagination and even now still kind of believe in all things magical. I loved her character because she was this sweet lovely obedient young women who rebels and seeks more from her life than the boring confinements of London society, however in the end she manages to cherish both adventure and normality, its a sweet story and I'll forever have a huge admiration for her character. She is a motherly figure but its not depicted as a "boring" quality as I usually see, its illustrated as a treasure of a quality that can be fun and also reasonable. I have always been slightly obsessed with Wendy's look (as a child) so I really didn't want to take much away, I wanted to keep her childish manner yet instill the elegance and sophistication of her character.





Jane: Tarzan
Here's what I absolutely adore about Jane as a character: shes a smart independent young women who's also quirky and a bit geeky, I feel like the combination of all qualities is lacking or more so was lacking in women characters when I was a child, its like women either had to be Smart and Geeky or Quirky and Independent/alone. Jane kind of showed me that it was okay for me to be creative, independent, weird and bold and that it wasn't strange I didn't fit into a niche of other women I was meant to be like. I loved her outfit in Tarzan also, so I really wanted to bring the essence of her look back into this 2016 re-vamp. I wanted the look to also illustrate her character, the quirky individuality of her combined with the intelligence and strength.
