Want to learn to Disney Bound as Beauty and the Beast? These tips will help you dress as the perfect Belle (and we've got the inside scoop from the Beauty and the Beast press junket)!Who doesn't LOVE Beauty and the Beast? It's a classic.  I grew up watching the original Disney film, and was over the moon excited when I learned that Disney was remaking Beauty and the Beast as a life action feature film.  Last week, our whole family drove to the Disney animation lot to screen the movie, and the morning after? I got to attend the press junket to end all press junkets……the Beauty and the Beast press morning.  The cast addressed working on a legendary film, we saw a live performance from the amazing Alan Menken, and YES, they discussed the gay character debate.

“So knowing full well that Emma was going to make sure that Belle was somebody who was independent, who was strong, who was educated, who was sticking up for girls and women, and who does all the rescuing in the film. That’s why I knew it was going to be important for me to be a part of and for my kids to see.” -Audra Mcdonald (Madame Garderobe)

As I listened to the amazing cast speak about Beauty in the Beast……one theme repeated itself.  The amazingly strong role models that these characters are for our children.  Many of the members of the cast are parents of young children themselves, and I loved hearing how important it was for THEM as parents to create a film that messaged strong values to their own children.  They shared the need for Belle to rescue herself, the value she puts into books and education, and the importance of looking beyond physical appearance (how else could you fall in love with a beast?).

“In our film she’s actually an activist within her own community. She’s teaching other young girls who are part of the village to read, and you know, moments like that where you could see her expanding beyond just her own little world and trying to kind of grow it, I loved that, and yeah, that was amazing to get to do.” -Emma Watson, Belle

“You know, I talked before about how we translate this into a live act – that means filling out the characters. It’s also a translation to 2017, you know? And what is this movie about? What has this story always been about? For 300 years it’s about looking closer, going deeper, you know, accepting people for who they really are, and in a very Disney way we are including everybody. I think this movie is for everybody, and on the screen you’ll see everybody, and that was important to me, I think to all of us.”- Bill Conden, Director

How to Disney Bound: Beauty and the Beast

What does it mean to Disney Bound? A way to pay tribute to your favorite Disney movies in regular clothes.  A way to dress up without wearing a costume.  If you visit a Disney Park, look around….you'll see guests Disney Bounding everywhere (mostly because adults aren't allowed to wear costumes inside the parks).  The costumes in Beauty and the Beast are stunning.  Every detail from the fabrics to the colors pay homage to the original film….without just copying it.  When Lydia and I were planning our Disney Bound outfits for the film, we actually spent some time debating which of Belle's famous dresses we should wear.  But what can I say? Every girl wants to wear Belle's beautiful golden dress from the scene where she dances around the ballroom with her Beast.

For these Disney inspired outfits, we focused on finding the perfect shade of yellow….then adding in golden accents.  Plus, it was a requirement that we sprinkled in a few roses here and there (isn't Lydia's headband the cutest?)

    I had never heard of Disney Bound before, but now I know! Love your beautiful dresses. My (grown) daughter and I are heading to DisneyWorld for a grown-up trip in September. I am definitely going to keep your tips in mind. It will be fun!

🚗 Road Trips……Which one are you?⠀ ⠀ Thi 🚗 Road Trips……Which one are you?⠀⠀This weekend we flew to Sacramento and then road tripped north to see my family up in the mountains.  It was so much fun to spend time together, and it reminded me….we are ALL one of these people on a toad trip.⠀⠀Bonus points to the VERY nice road trip vehicle we had…..the team at @MazdaUSA lent us a 2023 Mazda CX-50 Turbo Premium Plus and it was AMAZING (it even had a wireless charging dock for our phones). It made my snack stops even better (yup, we tried Dutch Bros for the first time and OMG we need them to expand to more Southern California locations ASAP).⠀⠀So, which are person are YOU on a road trip? ⠀⠀#familytravel #drivemazda
….and also why are we commenting negatively abou ….and also why are we commenting negatively about people’s appearances in 2023?Double also: if the worst thing people on the interwebs can say about me is that they don’t like my smile…..then I feel pretty good about what type of person I’ve chosen to be.
💕Because we all want our kids to soar………⠀⠀So fitting right? Elvis named this plane after his daughter.  And all I’ve been thinking about throughout our St Jude experience…..is how certain things truly bond all of us.  Certain things cross economic barriers and continent and language differences.  Parenthood is one of those.  It’s a universal experience.  And I think whether we are parents or role models or aunties or friends……we all know what it’s like to dream and hope on behalf of a child in your life.⠀⠀In 2012, when I was newly married and not yet a parent one of my students was diagnosed with cancer.  Without revealing details about her or her family, I think it’s important to recognize that economic barriers prevented what should have been an earlier diagnosis.  It was one of many times I was reminded during my time with the amazing humans in my classrooms that…..we do NOT all have the same access or experiences in life.  That student and her family were one of the miracle stories.  In fact, when she came back to class, she complained about missing soccer games at recess and fell right back in with the rest in a way that to this day brings joyful tears to my eyes. ⠀⠀I said this on my stories during my trip, but…..I didn’t realize until this experience that families at St Jude NEVER receive a bill.  Ever.  No matter what.  That this access gives families hope during their darkest days.⠀⠀I’m going to be teaming up with St. Jude to do a fun challenge that will hopefully inspire y’all to support them too.  Let’s just say that…..for this scared of heights, refuses to take my feet off the ground theme park girlie……I’m going to making the ultimate sacrifices.⠀⠀What rides would you want to see me go on in support of St Jude? (be kind, I’m literally TERRIFIED of any and all rides that have a height limit). You know they REALLY moved me if I’m even thinking of doing this! ⠀⠀@stjude #stjudeambassador
💕Double tap if you know what the Peabody is fam 💕Double tap if you know what the Peabody is famous for…..so many of you guessed it in stories last night!🦆The Peabody Hotel is famous for their duck parade.  And we got to see it as a part of Day 1 of the St Jude Content Creator Summit.  I’m in Memphis to learn all about how St Jude is doing life saving research to fight and cure childhood cancers.💕Real talk: I get to do a lot of fun things because of this little app but projects like this? Are an absolute honor.  Did you know that patients at St Jude NEVER RECEIVE A BILL? What a gift to families in crisis. I’m so happy to share this next couple of days here in Memphis with y’all and to support such an important organization.🦆Now, swipe to see the ducks. @stjude #stjudeambassador
She IS Ariel. We saw it. It’s a gift. This s She IS Ariel. We saw it.  It’s a gift.  This stunning movie shows a princess who is absolutely……royal.  Graceful.  Brave and……the perfect mermaid. Years ago, I was sitting in the theater during the live action Lion King premiere just days after the Little Mermaid casting was announced.  And in walked Halle Bailey.  This young girl and all I could think was……how much weight of the world was on her shoulders.  The room paused.  And people everywhere stood.  They applauded her and smiled and I thought…..she really is a princess. Halle, you are the epitome of royalty.  Thank you for sharing your shine with the world.I would love to encourage you to follow these amazing creators who have been shining themselves and sharing a ton of special Little Mermaid experiences:@jenniferborget @erikaenchanted@davidvaughn@_the_adventurous_rjay@colormemagic@melizzablackLydia’s, Robbie’s and my full review of the film will be on the blog Monday morning.How excited are you for the film? Who is your favorite Little Mermaid character? #littlemermaid #colormemermaid #ariel
