A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Moana

And now we come to Disney's newest princess: Moana. This one is still really new, so if you haven't seen her movie yet, spoiler alert. Moana is the daughter of the chief of a village on an island in the Pacific. Which, to me, doesn't scream princess. But, if Pocahontas counts, then so does Moana. … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Moana

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Anna

Oh, Anna... Sweet, naive Anna. Throughout the first act of Frozen, you feel pretty bad for her. Well, you feel bad for Elsa, as well, but we covered her last week. As a young child, Anna is very close with her sister, Elsa. She gets injured in an accident involving Elsa's icy powers, which causes … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Anna

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Elsa

I know. Elsa is not a princess. Once we hit the second act of Frozen, Elsa makes it through the coronation ceremony and becomes a queen. She's only a princess for the first 15 minutes of the movie. She is not included on Disney's official list of princesses, nor is her sister, Anna. As a … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Elsa

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Merida

Merida is the only character to come from a Pixar film to be named an official Disney Princess. Though she is not the only Pixar princess. Remember A Bug's Life? That film featured Princess Atta and her younger sister, Dot, who I suppose would also be a princess. I did not include them on my … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Merida

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Rapunzel

Poor girl... She lived a sheltered life until she was 18. She was locked away in a tower for "her own good." The woman that raised her kept her away from the world because it wouldn't be safe for her if people knew about the magical properties that her hair possessed. The truth of the … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Rapunzel

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Tiana

Welcome back to a series of blog posts exploring the date-ability of Disney's princesses. This week we discuss Tiana, from The Princess and the Frog. Tiana is another of our princesses who married into her title. But that gives her more right to call herself a princess than someone like Mulan. I won't get into … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Tiana

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Giselle

Next on our list of Disney Princesses is another princess who does not make the official list of Disney Princesses. Giselle, from 2007's Enchanted, gets ignored for one simple reason: Disney doesn't want to pay Amy Adams every time her likeness could possibly be used for the Disney Princess line of merchandise. Could you imagine … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Giselle
