Modern Disney Girls

Yay for first post of 2014!! Today was a public Holiday so I spent it having some fun with my dolls. I re-bodied my 2012 (first release) Disney Store Merida doll on a Liv Schools Out Hayden body. She came out looking awesome!! The more modest girl body of the Liv doll suited Merida perfectly!!

When I posted this on my Flickr account a friend suggested that I give all my Disney girls a modern look. So I accepted the challenge as I haven't done something like this before, not with all my Disney girls. Well, this was the result:

I don't have a Jasmine or a Mulan yet and my Tiana is in need of a spa day before she is camera ready. Anna and Elsa should be on their way to me soon too.

So lets start with the pre-renaissance princesses. I loved how Snow turned out!! I need to fix her hair though it is still quite frizzy. For Cinders I tried to capture the original colours of her ball gown (Silver and white). Eventually I would like to reroot her in a strawberry blond colour like in the movie. As for Aurora I wanted an outfit that captures her as Briar Rose (The name given to her by the 3 good fairies that raised her). It contains both Blue and Pink, so Flora and Merryweather don't have to fight over the colour :P

The dress I put Belle in reminds me of a Mondern version of her village dress. Pocahontas outfit just seems right, and I believe she would wear something like this. For Rapunzel I tried to give her a more arty look. I am happy how it turned out.

Lastly are my Disney Store Liv Hybrid girls. Merida never without her bow and Ariel looking ready for a beach day!!

This was a fun project and kept me busy for most of the day. I love how they all turned out :). So that was how I spent my first day of 2014. It was a good start to the year.

Some of my Disney Store Dolls

Oki dokes let go...post number 2!! 

This is a Disney post (In case you didn't get that from the title). I have always loved Disney. My favourite Disney Animated movie is...if you guessed it right you get internet cookies....The Little Mermaid . Which little girl doesn't like that movie? Fun fact: The movie premiered the same year I was born, so that makes it extra special. :)

I have four different Disney Store Ariel dolls: Animators Collection, 2010 Classic, 2012 Classic and the 2013 Classic. You may have spotted 2013 Ariel in my previous post. 

Here is my 2012 Ariel doll. She is very Special to me as she was my very first Disney Store doll, and also my first ebay purchase. I didn't like her original body because of the hinge joints at the knees (they look awful). So I re-bodied her on a Liv body.

Next up we have my 2nd Disney Doll that I got from a friend on Flickr. She is the Disney Parks Rapunzel doll. If you don't know already she is from the Disney movie Tangled. The movie was awesome. The animation was mind blowing for me. This movie came very close to knocking Ariel's 21 year hold of best Disney Movie Ever title. I think I loved this movies so much because the same guy who did the music for TLM also did the music for Tangled. So the movies were similar...in a way.

 

Next on my list of Disney dollies to show you today is Merida from the Disney/Pixar Movie Brave. This movie was epic. The first princess to challenge the norms of princessness (is that a word??) She is a Arrow shooting, sword fighting Scottish princess from the Clan Dunbroch. Her spunk and attitude will show little girls everywhere that you don't have to sing or be girly to be a princess. I really do love this doll. Her face is so detailed and captures her character perfectly.  

Well that is all I am going to show you for now. I will post more of my Disney dolls on another day. 

Out of these 3 which is your favourite??
