My Top 5: Disney Films

Hey there,

I felt like it was time to introduce a new series to my little slice of the Internet. I've read posts by my favourite bloggers from this series before, so in no way is this an original idea, but I must admit I was definitely inspired! Last month, I shared with you a sneak-peak of my Top 5 Christmas films in my Blogmas series, which you can catch up on here and there's no better way to spark off this series than with my Disney favourites!




No matter what age, they'll always be a place in your heart for some light-hearted Disney magic - especially when it's bitter cold outside! 

1) Frozen



Judge me all you want, but Frozen is definitely in my Top 5 for Disney films. Can you believe it's been an entire year already since this was released? I find myself singing along to the soundtrack almost too much, but can you really blame me? Frozen is perfect for this time of year and I can assure you it will be my go-to film this Christmas! 'Let it go, let it go...!'

2) Tangled

 

Another one of my favourites is the magical rendition of Rapunzel - Tangled. Growing up, I spent endless hours wishing my hair would gracefully tumble down my shoulders. I envied her lovely, long locks and hoped that one day a handsome, young man would swoop me off my feet, just like in the films - how naive!

3) Peter Pan



You can't forget about the good ol' Disney classics! Peter Pan was always a much-loved favourite of mine as a child. As a young girl, I was never a big fan of Disney princesses - a plate of biscuits and a bunch of pirates seemed to sort me out, (strange child, I know!) I loved the idea of never having to grow up, if only it were true!

4) Lady & the Tramp



Yet another classic Disney film - how could I possibly leave this one off the list? I've always had a soft spot for dogs and I love to curl up on the sofa with a romantic movie, dipping into a selection of chocolates. It's not surprising this heart-warming Disney film made it into my top 5. 

5) Wreck It Ralph



From the moment I saw the trailer for Wreck It Ralph, I knew I just had to watch it. I managed to drag my entire family along with me to the cinema. I would honestly recommend to it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet - I was practically glued to the screen!

Let me know in the comments what your favourite Disney films are...

Bye for now! Xxx

#3 Blogmas - Favourite Christmas Films

Hey there!

After a hard day at work, there's nothing better than to run a warm, bubble bath, froth up a hot chocolate and snuggle on the sofa watching festive films with the family - the perfect way to welcome December, especially on a brisk, winter's night!



I've always been a huge fan of Christmas - in-fact, I absolutely love it! It's never too early to get wrapped up in the excitement to Christmas and the build-up to Christmas is always exciting with the Coca Cola and John Lewis adverts appearing on our screens. You know it's Christmas when the festive films are broadcasted everywhere! From Christmas classics that leave you in tears to those romantic love scenes under the mistletoe that make your hearts melt and those ones that have you in stitches - I love them all! 

#3 My Favourite Christmas Films

Here are my Top 5 most-loved Christmas films:

1) Elf



No Christmas film list is complete without Elf! This modern day movie always has me in stitches, no matter how many times I watch it - all hail Will Ferrel, he's absolutely brilliant!


2) The Muppet's Christmas Carol



Christmas isn't the same without a trip down memory lane with a Muppet's Christmas Carol - the most-watched and fantasy-comedy film at Christmas! This jolly, heart-warming classic never fails t to put me in the festive mood. I can't help, but sing along to all the Christmas tunes  

3) Arthur



It's not surprising that this film's appeared in my Top 5 - I love a good animated movie! Answering those all important questions for children at Christmas time and bringing back the magic to those who lost that spark growing up! 

4) Nativity



Who doesn't love a film for all the family at Christmas? I was hooked by the trailers immediately, it wasn't surprising that I headed straight for the cinema. You'll instantly fall in love with the kids - I know I did! This film definitely puts a twist on the famous Bible story and will definitely give you the giggles!

5) The Grinch Who Stole Christmas



As a young girl, I was an avid bookworm and spent my childhood with my head in a book - no matter what time of day! Dr Seuss was a huge favourite of mine and this rendition of the Grinch is a classic film to watch at Christmas! Cyndey Lou reminds me of how innocent and naive I used to be and Jim Carey plays the Grinch to perfection. I can't ever fault this film!

If you liked my first day of Blogmas, I would recommend you challenge yourself to this festive tag - it would be nice to read some of your posts!

Bye for now! Xxx
