Aladdin The Musical: My First Disney Bound
Disney bounding.
It's the craze that is taking over Disney Instagram accounts and parks by storm and yet, it's something that I had never tried out for myself... until now.
First off, a lot of you probably have no idea what a 'Disney bound' is so please, allow me to explain...
Hopefully that has cleared that up for you.
Now, some of you may recall that my lovely boyfriend bought me tickets to see Disney's Aladdin The Musical in London's West End for my Birthday and as Aladdin is my favourite Disney movie and Jasmine is my favourite Disney Princess, I decided that this was the perfect time to try out Disney bounding for myself.
(A full review of Aladdin The Musical will be posted shortly, fear not...)

| My First Disney Bound - Princess Jasmine |
I have created my own Princess Jasmine fancy dress costume previously for a friend's Birthday so I already knew the kinds of colours and accessories that I wanted to incorporate into the look. Basically a lot of glitter, jade green tones, gold and crystals! I was also fortunate enough to have been gifted a gorgeous wrap from China from a close friend which definitely had some Magic Carpet vibes about it so this was also included along with a complimenting bag.
