Me and my cousins used to pretend to be princesses and I would always choose cinderella. Good times.

It was Jasmine! I loved how strong she was. Aladdin was my favorite Disney movie for a long time.

I love cinderella. As a kid, I would always pretend to be her. My little sister would always be snowwhite. We now have Disney plus and our profile pictures are those princesses.

I loved Ariel the Mermaid. I actually favored Flounder, but since he isn’t a princess, Ariel it is! I do also love Mulan! Nothing is more thrilling than a woman warrior!

My favorite Disney princess is Rapunzel. As a kid, I wished to have my hair as long as hers.

I always loved Disney movies, so I can't tell which one of them is my favourite :D But the ones I like the most are Belle, Jasmine and Rapunzel. And one of my all-time favourites is Esmeralda. I'm not sure whether she counts as a "princess", but definitely a great Disney heroine.

God, there are so many, I really do like almost all of them, but it is difficult to pick a favorite.
Belle was my first princess to really love, Beauty and the Beast are probably one of my favorite love stories; she was just so bright and caring and beautiful on the inside - and the dress is a killer!

Then there's Tiana of course, the first princess to look like me and not only look like me but have so much in common it was like looking in the mirror! We are both from New Orleans, have big dreams, love to cook, are no-nonsense with arrogant men, and her dress is my favorite color. I've even been told that would like her, but with a lighter accent.

Then there is of course the often forgotten Kida from Atlantis. She eventual becomes queen, but throughout the film, she was a princess and played an important role in her kingdom. I think she was the only princess that I can remember who didn't run away from responsibilities or marry into them. Like, we can see her putting her people first time and time again, their well-being is her first concern, and yet she balances it with her personal wants (love and exploration). She was just so proud of her culture and I love that about her. And yes the outfit was amazing!

Definitely Mulan! When I was a kid I watched the tape so many times that I almost broke it. I never liked the other princesses because they always waited on a man to save them, while Mulan was finally someone who could save herself without the help of the proverbial Prince Charming!

Mulan, though I wouldn't consider her a princess she taught me to be strong and to stand up for myself.
