This Or That: Disney Princess Edition!

Hello guys! How are you all doing? I hope you’ve all been well 💕 welcome back to another blog post—I’ve missed sitting down and writing a proper catch-up, so I thought we’d start with a little life update before getting into today’s post ✨
My mum and I have been doing a bit of spring cleaning 🧹 and honestly… It’s been long overdue 😅 We’ve been going through cupboards, drawers, and all those little corners you tend to ignore until one day you realise just how much has built up. It actually feels really refreshing to have a clear-out, especially because we’re currently in the process of trying to find a house to call our own 🏡, which, as you probably know, isn’t exactly a quick or easy process. We’re trying to stay patient and positive, even though it feels like it’s taking forever—but hopefully it won’t be too much longer now 🤞🏼 We did actually try to view a couple of houses this past weekend, which we were really looking forward to… but it didn’t quite go to plan 🙃 We were given the wrong location details, which meant we ended up over an hour away from where we were actually supposed to be. Typical, right? 😬 The real location was only about 20 minutes from us, so by the time we realised, we’d completely missed our chance to look around. It was one of those moments where you just have to laugh it off, but safe to say it was a bit frustrating. Usually, Google Maps is pretty reliable, but this was definitely one of those rare times it let us down!
On top of that, I’ve been struggling quite a lot with my ribs lately. I’ve found out it’s due to my recurring costochondritis flaring up again, but this time it’s been much more intense than usual 😣 It’s affecting my entire ribcage 🩻 rather than just one area, which has made even the simplest things feel really difficult. It’s been quite limiting and, honestly, a bit overwhelming at times, especially when you just want to get on with your day, but your body has other plans.
Something else that’s been quite stressful recently is that my mum has been dealing with a fraud issue 😨 Someone has been using her details—including her card—for a monthly payment through PayPal (which she’s never even used). We reported it and got a case opened, but unfortunately, they’ve refused to properly investigate it, so we’re now having to appeal the decision. It’s been really upsetting to see how much it’s affected her, especially as the stress has been making her feel quite poorly. I just genuinely don’t understand how or why people do things like that—it’s so unfair.
On a slightly more positive note, I’ve been in contact with a couple of orthodontists 🦷 that I mentioned in my previous post. One of them unfortunately doesn’t meet the specific requirements I need for my case, which was a bit disappointing, but I’m still waiting to hear back from the other. I’m really hoping they’ll be able to help, or at least point me in the right direction. It’s been a bit of a process trying to find the right support, especially with how complex things are due to my condition, but fingers crossed I’ll be able to get an appointment sorted soon 🤞🏼. I’ll be honest, these past couple of weeks have also been a little bit emotional. It would have been my grandad’s birthday 🎉 on the 17th, and even though he’s not been with us for 13 years now, it still never feels any easier when that date comes around 🪽 . It’s one of those things where time passes, but the feeling doesn’t really change. I still miss him every single day, and certain moments just hit a little harder than others. Because of that, we usually try to do something to take our minds off the day—normally we’d go out somewhere nice—but this year was a bit different due to how bad my ribs have been. I was in too much pain to really go anywhere, so instead we had a quieter day at home and decided to rent a film 🍿 on Amazon Prime. We ended up watching The Housemaid (starring Amanda Seyfried and Sydney Sweeney), which we’d both been wanting to see for ages—and oh my god, it was SO good 😍 It was actually on a deal as well (not sure how long for), which made it even better. We even convinced my dad to watch it, even though he didn’t think it would be his kind of film—and he ended up enjoying it more than he expected 🙃
To finish on a lighter note, my sister has been keeping us entertained through our family WhatsApp group with stories about my nephews 😂 Apparently, my oldest nephew has been repeating a phrase she says at home while he’s been at school—nothing bad, just one of those funny little habits kids pick up—and his teacher found it hilarious. And my youngest nephew is turning into a proper little car lover 🚙 to the point where his nursery teacher noticed one of the toy cars had gone missing… only to realise he’d tried to take it home with him 🤣 Honestly, I love them so much and the things they come out with always make me smile 😹
And with all of that being said… which leads me nicely into this week’s post—something a little more fun, lighthearted, and magical ✨ let’s get into today’s Disney Princess “This or That” challenge 👑

After everything that’s been going on lately, I thought it would be nice to switch things up a little and bring something a bit more fun, cosy, and lighthearted to this week’s post ✨ There’s just something so comforting about anything Disney, especially when it comes to the princesses 👑 Whether you grew up watching them or still love them now (like me 😄), they all have their own unique personalities, stories, and little details that make them so special in their own way. So instead of anything too serious, I’ve put together a “This or That: Disney Princess Edition” — a gentle, easy-going post you can dip in and out of. You can answer the questions as you go, mentally pick your favourites, or simply enjoy the nostalgia and aesthetic along the way 🎶👗 It’s completely up to you, there’s no pressure here—just a bit of Disney magic to brighten your day ✨

If you do feel like joining in, you can casually choose between each option as you scroll, or just take it all in at your own pace 💖 Some choices might be easy, others might make you pause for a second—but that’s part of the fun. However you read it, I hope it brings a little bit of warmth, nostalgia, and magic to your day 👑✨
