5) Cinderella
Cinderella is actually a lot better than most people give her credit for. The main thing I like about her is her strength. She managed to stay strong in an abusive household, which I admire about her. I also like her traits that set her apart from the other three Classics; her sense of self preservation and her resourcefulness.
4) Belle
I used to adore Belle. I still like her, from her witty remarks, her feisty temperament, her intelligence and thirst for knowledge. However, the others are higher because they develop more. In fact the only reason she's so high up is because I relate to her.
3) Mulan
I love Mulan! In fact, it was hard deciding between her and Tiana, but Mulan lost ultimately. Still, I adore her character. Like Cinderella, one of the main reasons why I like her is because I admire her. In Mulan's case, I admire her resilience, courage and determination. I can also relate to her desire to be accepted for who she is and her outspoken, astute nature is a defining factor in my liking for her. But my favourite thing about her is that she's not afraid to speak up and make her opinions know.
2) Tiana
Tiana in second? Gasp! But, if I'm honest, I love Tiana. She combines character development, a good personality and being relatable. I like her hard work ethic, intelligence, humour and determination. I can seriously relate to her ambition, though I strive for something completely different, and her bravery. Also, I enjoy watching her develop throughout the film, from a workaholic driven only by her dream to open a restaurant, to a young woman who understands that love is the most important thing in life and all that. And I was so happy when she got her restaurant!
1) Elsa
Elsa. What is there to say about Elsa? I honestly believe that she's the best Disney Princess. I can truly relate to her insecurities, anxiety and fear of hurting people she loves. Most of her decisions are decisions I would make, and you bet I would probably lose control if I was pushed; just like Elsa in the film. I do really wish I was as elegant and regal as Elsa is, and two of Elsa's main aspirations (freedom and being accepted) are two things I strive for. I'm also very introverted and reserved, and if I was called a monster by people and hated by everyone, I'd run away too (though I probably wouldn't be able to make an awesome ice palace like she did). There's also her development to consider; she goes from being terrified of herself to free and in total control. All this is why Elsa is my favourite Disney Princess.
