Disney princess casual outfits from best to worst IMO
@lovestrucklyuniverse asked me what my favorite and least favorite Disney casual outfits were since I made a tier list on which fancy dresses! So once again I've made both a tier template, which you can try yourself HERE, and also did an actual list from favorite to least.
Moana
You guys may remember that I'm one of the people who were PISSED when Disney Dreamlight Valley changed the color scheme for the Moana 10 level friendship dress... and I am STILL MAD. I LOVE HER COLOR SCHEME. Honestly I love her ending outfit too, I forgot to add it to my Disney princess gowns tier (oops) but overall I've always had an affinity for Polynesian-Hawaiian fashion. I love all the details without it being overwhelming, and that necklace is gorgeous too.
Anna
I know that TECHNICALLY Anna's real "casual outfit" is actually just her fancy gown, but with sleeves and a cape - or at least it's very similar, so for me that meant I might as well do this dress instead. Could I have gone into Frozen 2? Sure, but I didn't want to do that because then I would have to consider ALL Anne and Elsa's outfits and that'd take forever. If I were gonna do that, I'd rather do a list of ONLY Frozen outfits or something xD Anyway, I think this dress is HELLA cute! A real nice spring dress, with some cute nature details at the bottom along with a "corset" and long sleeves. I like that while it's overall green, there are some pink accents and it has multiple shades of green so it doesn't feel too simple.
Rapunzel
I already mentioned this in the gown version of this tier list, but I am overall a fan of all of Rapunzel's outfits. I would have LOVED to see her green concept art dress though, holy crap. I hope there's a cosplayer out there who has made that dress cause I want to see it irl SO BAD xD Anyway, the dress we got is cute! Different shades of pink and purple, SMALL puff sleeves and loads of small details along with lace. I'm a lace girl, love lace, will never say no to lace. Probably.
Mulan
Now see THIS is a much better outfit for Mulan! Which is interesting cause it has a similar color scheme to her fancy hanfu, dark blue, dark red, grayish white and a pinkish red as well. So... why does this look WAY better to me??? I don't know. It just does. Perhaps I'll try to do a color swap of these two and see if I can make myself like Mulan's fancy hanfu more that way xD
Ariel
This dress is so stinking cute and the bigass bow in Ariel's hair is hilariously oversized, but in the best way xD I like that it's blue, but three different shades so it - like I've mentioned earlier with Anna's dress - isn't just one solid color. It is just a tiiiiiny bit too simple for my liking though, which is why it isn't higher on my list.
Belle
Not gonna lie, I heavily prefer Belle's peasant dress to her fancy, gold gown. It's simply color-wise, but the color switch around enough for it to not feel like one solid block of color. White shirt with poofy sleeves and a collar, blue dress with thick straps and a white petticoat along with a white apron. No cute little details or anything like that, but it doesn't feel that boring despite only being two colors. Also, her hairstyle is super cute.
Kida
I actually like like Kida's outfit just fine. It's nothing fantastic though and I think it's a little bit safe. Atlantians are, from what I know, a fictional group of people and culture, right? Why not experiment a bit more? Make her wear something that stands out! Instead it's just something I can imagine seeing a random white girl wear at the beach. It's not bad, but it's one of my many issues with the visuals of the Atlantis movie.
Jasmine
I like Jasmine's outfit fine. But it's all the same shade of blue and has NO details whatsoever. Yes, the "belt" of her pants is a lighter shade, but not by much. If it had a bit more decoration on it, I would like it a lot more. And I don't like those earrings. They've confused me since I was a child. How high up are her earlobes supposed to be exactly??? I don't know about you guys, but my earlobes are parallel to just below my cheek bones. On Jasmine, based on the earrings, it looks like her earlobes are parallel to the lower part of her eye which is just VERY high up, isn't it??? Either way, a fairly simply outfit that I think only really works cause Jasmine's own beauty carries it all.
Elsa
Eh... this dress should be right up my alley. I love cyan and teal shades, it has long sleeves, there's purple there, there's some cute details without them being overwhelming. On paper, I should love or at least like this dress and I just... don't. I really can't explain why, it just doesn't do anything for me. My only guess would be that it's tight. It looks limiting. Which is kinda the idea given what Elsa is going through at this point in the movie, so I like it for her, but personally it just doesn't work for me.
Merida
Again. Dark teal/cyan, but with Merida's dress I can easily explain why I dislike it: IT'S SO FUCKING BORING. It's one solid color all the way through and then it has those small frilly thingies on her wrists and upper body and I despise frills. Hate them. Reminds me of whipped cream and I hate whipped cream too xD And the frills being fucking beige doesn't help xD
Aurora
Boring peasant gown is boring, but I love that corset! But there's too much... beige, gray and just... I like color, okay? Or at least just not "neutral" colors like this. I might honestly have liked it more if it had dark, warm, earthy color instead. I am anti-beige xD Also never been a fan of this type of collar. It's giving school uniform and it makes me feel two types of ways and neither are what I should be feeling looking at a Disney movie xD
Tiana
This shade of yellow is one of the ONLY shades of yellow I actually like, otherwise I am just not a fan of yellow, usually. I do think it suits Tiana very well, but outside of that it's just very plain. I like the silhouette, sorta, but that's about it.
Pocahontas
Again, not a fan of neutral beige'ish colors. And what pisses me off is that if you google Native American fashion, there are SO MANY gorgeous examples. Once again, I get that animators might not want to put a bunch of details on an outfit of the main character, but goddammit, why does it have to be THIS boring??? Thankfully the necklace is there, but the dress on its own is just really boring.
Cinderella
Do I even have to explain this one? Disney has made plenty of cute "housemaid" outfits (Nanny from 101 Dalmatians, Mrs. Jenkins from Pocahontas 2) and this is just not one of them. But considering that one of the reasons Cinderella is wearing such a plain outfit is to make her ballgown that much more amazing, and that I find that to be one of the most boring Disney ballgowns, this outfit doesn't work for me.
Snow White
I mean, come on. It's supposed to be ugly and they succeeded. Can't really hate it for doing its job xD

Alright maybe I'm just a sucker for weddings (I am) but number 23? - 🍰
How have you been?????
23. What's your dream wedding like?
Congrats, you've got the jackpot of me talking for forever
So I've had a Pinterest wedding board since I was approximately 16 I have given this thought.
So I'll start with the more wishy washy things.
I like buffet style for food. Now I'm totally sure that's a lot more expensive than plates BUT I'm a picky eater and also I say a picture of a taco bar once and I loved it. I also like the layouts of cheeses and fruits and, things like that and like, I don't want stuff boring food. I want tacos. Also I'll wear something so it doesn't get on my dress.
For colour pallet I'm not 100% sure. Its gotta match the season and the setting. I don't have a set place yet or type of location so that's pretty flexible. I do like having at least one deep blue or deep green tone in the colour pallet but the rest depends on season and THAT depends on the engagement because I really hate the idea of having a long engagement so when we get engaged will heavily affect the time of year for the wedding.
I have always loved the idea of a handmade origami bouquet. My friend made me some flowers for my 18th bday and if i still have them I wanna use them (there was a whole story with it) and like I love handmade paper decorations so that's on the list.
Okay I've mention this before but I love pearl rings like
They're so pretty and elegant and timeless. The other option would be something minimalist
I'm not a fan of big, gaudy rings or gems and jewels in general.
I love the idea of doing a boudoir shoot. Idk if I will but like
How pretty right? I think its so nice and I wanna do pretty bridal lingerie anyway.
I have lots of pins of like flower girl/ring bearer stuff but im not sure who will do that since my cousins might be a little old for that when I get married depending on when I find someone so we'll see what happens with that im very down for having like our dog do it
I'm still not set on bridesmaid dresses. A lot of the popular contemporary styles are a bit boring. I do think they should be long but im I also really like the more 50s inspired a-line tea length ones so I'm not sure. Would petticoats be too much? Would it make then too big? Maybe small ones. Its also gonna depend on my bridesmaids bodies and what they're comfy in.
Okay.
The dress.
If there is anything that I know
Its th dress.
Ya girl loves to be a princess
If there can be tulle, there will be tulle. I love a line and ballgowns. I think lace is really pretty and elegant.
I'm also a hug fan of illusion shoulders and sleeves with lace on them
Like this is just, this is like a dream dress.
I also love a bit of whimsy with some bigger parts like flowers or butterflies
The first time i saw the dress on the right I almost cried.
Also I love a corset/lace up back. It just looks better and gives you leeway in terms of size and fitting. My prom dress was a lace up back and that was a fantastic idea so I wanna find that in a wedding dress as well.
Okay thank you for letting me ramble so much fjfjdjdhdh
