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

#14 Blogmas - Favourite Childhood Christmas Memory

Hey there!

It's safe to say I've fallen extremely far behind with my Blogmas posts this year! Despite the cold weather, I decided to brave the shops to hunt down my Christmas gifts - a task I should have completed way before December. Somehow, I seem to get so caught up in the Christmas spirit, dancing away to festive songs and spending my evenings watching back-to-back festive films, that I completely forget about my Christmas shopping. This weekend was a challenge, but I can officially say I am well and truly ready for the Christmas Day! 



Alongside weaving my way in-between the hustle and bustle of busy shoppers making their last minute trips out before Christmas, despite the bad weather, I've been busy writing Christmas cards, making trips to see old friends and spending some quality time with my family - hence the lack of blog posts. 

#14 Blogmas - Favourite Childhood Christmas Memory

Ever since I can remember, Christmas has always been my favourite holiday - plenty of excuses to express my inner child! Growing up, my family and I have always made a huge effort at Christmas to keep the magic alive. There was always some nibbles and a glass of milk left on the table the night before Christmas and an array of tinsel hanging all around the house. 

 As a child, the countdown to Christmas was always magical - every year I'd make a special trip to Father Christmas, cherishing every minute I had with him! The week before Christmas was always my favourite - I'd sit eagerly waiting at my window, ensuring I was in earshot of the Christmas float, before dashing out to greet Father Christmas at the door. I can assure you I was never disappointed!


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
