Disney Wishlist February 2017

Wow life was been so crazy! Big news first, my family is moving! Now before all the crazy ideas of where go through your head, I'm not moving far. I'm literally moving about 15 minutes away from where I live now but I love it and can't wait to move in and redo my room again!

I will still be blogging but they might not be a frequent as I will be super busy packing & I'm also going to school now.  Anyway, let's get on this today's post, which is a Disney Wishlist for February! I always have so many things I want to buy so I thought why not share them with you!

Be Our Guest Bowl | Lumiere Plush | Tinkerbell Figural Pen | Tinkerbell Phone Holder |

Lady and the Tramp Disney Tradition | Gaston Funko Pop | Cogsworth Plush |

Moana Funko Pop | Stained Glass Rose Pin 

1. Be Our Guest Bowl - I've been looking at this range of Beauty and the Beast tableware for ages as they are sold in WDW. Luckily last week The Disney Store UK brought them out online! I seriously want the whole set of plates, bowls & mugs for the new house..if you going to eat, might aswell eat in Disney style!

2. Lumiere & Cogsworth Plush - These have been out for a while now but I still haven't got them as I just had no room. I have Belle, Beast & Gaston so I need Lumiere & Cogsworth and now I'm moving and have more room to display my collection, I would really love them! The details and personality coming out of them is perfect.

3. Tinkerbell MXYZ Phone Holder & Figural Pen - I already loved the MXYZ range as it's super cute & kawaii but when they added Tinkerbell it just killed me! If you know me you'll know Tink is one of my favourites and she looks ADORABLE! I need the little figural pen as it's too cute, just look at her shoes!! The phone holder is pretty cute too, just a nice decoration. 

4. Disney Tradition Lady and the Tramp - Since Christmas I've been really getting into Disney Traditions and the one I would love to most right now is this Lady and the Tramp piece celebrating the 60th Anniversary. I think it captures the characters really well & I don't have much Lady and the Tramp but I love this.

5. Funko POPs - I'm not the biggest fan of Funko Pop's as I prefer other figures but as soon as they announced Gaston I knew I needed him. Gaston is one of my favourite characters & there is no way near enough merchandise for him or other villains. I also need Moana for my princess shelf, plus I love her & her uniqueness.

6. Stained Glass Rose Pin - This pin actually comes from the US but I love it. It's a stain glass version of the rose from Beauty and the Beast. I think it's perfect and I need it, so I'm on the hunt! I think I've hopefully found one so let's hope together!

That's my wishlist for February. I really enjoyed doing this so I'll probably do it more often :)

Top 10 Disney Soundtracks

So today I'm sharing my personal Top 10 Disney Soundtracks. These are my personal choices so they might not be your favourites and I might miss out your number 1 but I'd love to know your favourites in the comments! 

10. Tangled

Just making into my Top 10 is Disney's 50th Animated Classic, Tangled. This may come as a surprise as Rapunzel is my favourite princess but the music isn't my favourite. I think the musical scenes are amazing & perfectly animated but I just think Disney have made better songs.

9. Brother Bear

I feel that Brother Bear is such an underrated Disney movie and it's so good especially the music. Phil Collins really knocks the soundtrack out the park, giving us all the feels with every beat & word. When a song is meant to be sad you feel sad & when a song is happy you feel happy, it's just perfect! 

8. Mulan

While finding my Top 10, Mulan actually surprised me as I didn't expect it to be in my list. I often discount Mulan from my favourite Disney movies but I do love it and need to mention it more! I love the difference in every song in this movie, you have the sad princess song, followed by a tough hard song. It is just perfectly balanced.

7. The Princess and the Frog

This was another one that surprised me but listening to the New Orleans beats just makes me feel good. Again I love the songs so much especially When I'm Human & Friends on the Other Side. They have so much feeling that I just wanna dance when I hear Going Down the Bayou!

6. Aladdin

This was actually the last soundtrack I thought of but it shot straight the number 6 when I thought of it! I can't believe I nearly missed it off my list and Aladdin has some of my favourite songs. I feel the songs in Aladdin are used in the right places to keep the story on track & progressing in the right way. I wouldn't say that there is a song just put there because they felt they didn't use enough songs, if you know what I mean..? Great songs and great placement!

5. Moana

Disney newest classic has gone straight into the Top 5 in my books. When I first heard a sample of the music online I didn't think I'd like it, but I was surprised as now I can't stop listening to it! I loved the movie as you probably know and the songs were just perfect. They gave the movie the right feeling & that hint of culture that it needed to feel complete. 

4. Tarzan

Phil Collins once again graces my list with his amazing songs from Tarzan. I don't think this movie would have been complete without these songs. They just have so much meaning & depth to them that immerses you into the story.

3. The Lion King

Now we are into the Top 3, and I don't think this list would be right without them. The Lion King is such a special Disney movie as it has all the right components to be amazing, which is was! The Lion King has some of Disney best songs in my opinion and I couldn't imagine the movie without them. They give such feeling to the movie & gives the characters such personality. 

2. Beauty and the Beast

Just missing the number 1 spot is Beauty and the Beast. I love this movie & can't wait for the new live action one especially as they have kept the wonderful soundtrack. Beauty and the Beast has so many rememberable songs from Tale as Old as Time to Gaston to Be Our Guest. I don't know about you but whenever I hear the songs I can picture the movie scene in my head..that how amazing the whole soundtrack is.

1. Frozen

Finally number 1 goes to Frozen! Did you guess?! Frozen has a special place in my heart & always will have as it really captured me back into Disney. Of course I've always loved Disney but Frozen was when I started to obsessed and become addicted & start collecting again outside of my childhood. I can't say how many times I've listened to the Frozen soundtrack! I even went to a sing-along as I loved the movie and the music so much. The music just complements the movie perfectly and gives it such power. Frozen is my favourite Disney soundtrack & it will take some beating to change that.

That's my Disney Top 10 Soundtracks, but what's your favourite?

Disney Store Moana Doll Review

Is anyone else totally obsessed with Moana?! Writing my review the other day really reminded me how much I loved it & now I'm obsessing..like I'm listening to the music over and over again, I just bought the sticker album and another Moana post today! 

I recently got the Classic Moana Doll in Disney's Black Friday Sale when it was 20% off everything so I got Moana for a really good price. I knew as soon as I saw her I needed her for my doll collection as she is stunning and so unique. I love Moana's style and chunkiness compared to the other princesses. Yes I know she isn't a princess, but she will be going with my princess collection! 

 Moana is wearing her signature outfit from the movie with the Polynesian designs that I LOVE. She also has her amazingly textured hair that I feel is just better than some of the normal classic princess dolls. It has a better texture & volume in my opinion. This could be best Moana is abit more expensive than the other classic dolls...I'm not sure but I love her hair! Her special necklace is also included, it doesn't open like the Limited Edition version but it's still a pretty version of the actual design. She also comes with her oar from her boat, which I thought was a cool accessory to include and it really gives her personality & makes you feel like she's about to go on an adventure!

I love this doll alot and had alot of fun taking photos of her as she is designed so well that she is just busting with personality. If your debating whether you need her or not..you DO!

Moana Review

This has come a little later than I wanted but as Christmas was so crazy I just didn't have time. 

I went to see Moana on Christmas Eve Eve, and it was stunning. I've decided to keep this review SPOILER FREE so anyone can read it, but I will be telling you some of the basic background & exploring the songs, characters and visuals. 

I've been waiting for this movie for a long time. I remember seeing the first picture of this and being told it was a mix between Pocahontas & Hercules. I was worried at first as I'm a huge Hercules fan but could never really get into Pocahontas as there wasn't enough fantasy for me. I was happily surprised with Moana, it really is a treat for the eyes.

Moana, the protagonist, is the daughter of a chief living on an island called Motunui. Moana is excepted to become the next leader and continue their way of life, but Moana wants more. She feels connected to the ocean & beyond the island. She wants to lead the people away from the ordinary life on Motunui and have an adventure, but her father is against it.

When Moana's island is put in danger like a prophecy foretold, it's up to her to travel beyond the line of the ocean, find demi-god Maui and save her people & island. 

The visuals and animation in this movie are stunning. I didn't think that the animation could get any better than Frozen but I was wrong. The colours are so strong & the scenery really immersed you into the story. I came out in the middle of winter thinking I been on holiday in the middle of summer. The animation of the characters is so clear too, every movement is clean & beautiful. 

The characters are also awesome! Moana is strong female, who once again proves you can be brave and strong without a man, which is the one of the most refreshing things about this movie. Of course I love the Disney romance but it was nice having a Disney movie that didn't involve any romance like Brave. Maui is a great character and his personality was on point, he really reminded me of Discord from My Little Pony. I really liked his character and loved seeing all the sides to his personality from his angry moody side, to his cheeky side to his soft sad side. I really wish that Pua was it in more as he was ADORABLE! Hei Hei was hilarious and Grandma Tala reminded of my Nan as she is pretty crazy but wise and I love her so much.

Even though I loved the visuals, my favourite thing about this movie has to be the music. I really associate Disney with music and their soundtracks and I really miss the music in a Disney movie if there isn't any. The music in Moana is perfect. They really embraced the culture & sounds, whenever I listen to it (which I doing right now..) I really just wanna do some hulu dancing! 

I really love the voice of Auli'i Cravalho for Moana. If you didn't know, when they were casting Disney sent a request for people to send in videos of themselves singing & reading Moana lines and 14 year old Auli'i won. I think she is a perfect Moana and her singing voice is beautiful. 

My favourites are Where You Are, How Far I'll Go, Your Welcome but I think my favourite is 'I am Moana'. I really recommend the album if you looking for some new Disney songs.

Overall, I love Moana. It one that's definitely worth a watch in the cinema if you can as the visuals look amazing on such a big screen & the sound sounds fantastic.

I can't wait to see it again when I get it on DVD later in the year!

Have you seen Moana? What did you think?
