What Is DisneyBounding ????


DisneyBounding, a creative fashion trend, was created by Leslie Kay as a way for Disney fans to showcase their love for beloved characters in a stylish and unique manner. Unlike traditional costumes, DisneyBounding involves assembling everyday outfits that subtly reference specific Disney characters through their iconic color schemes and motifs. Although adults are typically not permitted to wear costumes at Disney theme parks unless it's a special occasion, DisneyBounding is allowed as it does not involve wearing a full costume. Just ensure to adhere to Disney's dress code guidelines for the parks.


By embracing DisneyBounding, enthusiasts can add a sprinkle of magic to their daily attire while staying on-trend and fashionable. This trend offers a plethora of opportunities for self-expression, allowing individuals to display their personal style and imagination in a playful and whimsical way.


Through DisneyBounding, fans can pay tribute to cherished characters from both classic and modern Disney movies, creating a versatile and inclusive platform that welcomes fans of all ages to partake in this imaginative fashion journey.


Overall, DisneyBounding provides a delightful avenue for Disney lovers to honor their favorite characters, connect with like-minded fans, and delve into the enchanting world of fashion and fantasy. It presents a wonderful chance to unleash creativity and exhibit a profound admiration for Disney's magical universe.




DisneyBounding Tips:


  • Have Fun: One of the most important parts of DisneyBounding is to have fun. If it's causing you too much stress take a step back and ask yourself why. It's probably one of 2 things comparing your Disneybound to someone you saw on social media or you don't think you are doing is right / the colors aren't matching exactly. We will discuss both of those in a second.


  • Stop Comparing: There are sooo many creators on social media that put together these amazing DisneyBounds that it can be really hard not to compare. It's even harder when you are just getting started. Sometimes when I see an amazing DisneyBound and wish I could put together a DisneyBound to look just like it I often realize the items they use I don't own anything similar and I would actually never wear those pieces of clothing anyways!!! If you don't like dresses don't wear dresses or if you love dresses don't feel like you have to always wear pants. Make your DisneyBound as unique as you are!!!


  • I Don't Think I'm Doing It Right: Like I said at the beginning there are no rules so that means there is no right or wrong way to DisneyBound. Now there are some creators that will tell you if you are Disneybounding as certain characters you should use this color and not that color, But when you are just getting started I wouldn't worry about that as much. I will say the more I DisneyBound the more I start to see colors differently! And it's not uncommon to put together a DisneyBound that you think is for one character and for someone else to see a different character all together. And thats ok and it doesn't mean you did it wrong. There are sooo many Disney characters that have similar color pallets that people might get it confused from time to time! And if you are ever stuck and need some help I am always happy to help. 


  • You Don't Have To Buy New Clothes: This right here is the reminder I needed!! For me personally I try to always look in my closet first and see if I can find something that would work before I go buy anything new. With a few exceptions those being the March Disneybound challenge (everyday there is a new prompt for a DisneyBound/ but you don't have to buy new items I just like too), planing a DisneyBound for my Disney trip, or deciding I want a pretty dress to film some princess content with (This happened a few weeks ago).  One of my rule for buying new clothes for a DisneyBound is the items have to be things I will actually wear. Like I said earlier if you don't like dresses don't buy dresses. I will say when you are getting started this can be really hard. Some things I bought at the beginning of my DisneyBound journey were circle skirts and different shirts in multiple different colors, headbands, bows, and belts. A lot of time adding an accessory can give you just that pop of color you need. Also a few DisneyBounding accounts I follow find items at thrifts stores so that could also be an option. Oh and you don't need / don't have to have a Loungefly to match your bound!! I know it can be tempting but just know it's not necessary!!! 


  • Let Your Personal Style Shine: This is also very important!! We all have our own styles so don't be afraid to show them. And sticking with your own style I think is what makes you stand apart from the crowd. And even though a character may wears dresses or skirts just know you don't have to if thats not your style. And the same is true if a character wears pants and you are a dress girl wear your dresses!!! Embrace your own style and let it shine. Your DisneyBound doesn't have to look like anyone else's!!!


I trust you found this information useful! These are reminders I need to give myself occasionally too!! DisneyBounding is meant to be enjoyable, just remember not to compare yourself and it doesn't have to be flawless.

 

In my upcoming blog post, I will begin by focusing on Mickey Mouse and explore various DisneyBounding options inspired by Mickey!
