Wanna be a princess?

What’s in? Facebook, ridiculous amounts of eye makeup, high skirts, myspace—no that’s so old— yoga, leggings? As a pretty reliable source, we can tell you that the next ultimate, everybody who is anybody, sweeping the nation craze is going old school and bringing back the Disney movies. I’m not talking about high school musical. I mean the classics: Pocahontas, Alice and Wonderland, Little Mermaid, Aladdin. Wasn’t it these very movies that taught us everything. Without the little mermaid would we have learned the importance of “keeping your voice” which we all know is code for sticking to what you believe in. Or without Pocahontas would we have ever known how hard it is to choose between family obligations and moral obligations? Whatever, Disney is the newest old craze. I mean it taught us about magic. I mean just look at Cinderella, who doesn’t want a fairy godmother?
