Modern Belle Outfits

Belle
Belle is such an amazing Disney princess! She is so smart and strong! She loves her father deeply, and manages to get a beastly man to fall in love! She is kind and forgiving and someone I think is a great role model! I loved making her iconic outfits and I hope y'all love them as much as I do!

Belle Casual
I love her casual outfit! I think it fits her personality! I really enjoyed modernizing it and am so incredible happy with the outcome! I think it is so similar and fits her style just as much as the original! I think this is a very appropriate and flattering outfit!

• Outfit-
• I think this is one of my favorite modern interpretations! I think this looks exactly like what her outfit would look like today! I love this dress! The color is absolutely beautiful! I love the belt around the middle to accentuate the waist. The length is very classy! I like that it is short, but not as short as most dresses are these days. I think this is a very classy length and would fit what Belle would wear today! Instead of the undershirt she has I gave her a white cardigan. I think it looks very nice with the dress and fits the style. If she took it off because she got hot, the outfit would still look just as good! I love these shoes, they look so similar to the original and I love the material. They go with the rest of the outfit so well! I think this is such a classy casual look and perfect for Belle!
• Accessories-
• Purse- I chose this bag because it could hold all her books! Instead of a basket I think she could carry more stuff from town in this bag. I think this book bag really fits her style! It works with this set as well! I like that she can carry it like a briefcase or it has a shoulder strap to make it easier. I can really picture her with this bag!
• Jewelry- I like these hoop earrings a lot. I think earrings add so much to a look without out being to much! These are so beautiful! I know not everyone has diamond earrings like this, but I really liked them for this look because the diamonds matched the necklace! This necklace is so beautiful! I had to use roses in her outfits! But this is such a small touch that adds so much of her story into the outfit! I like this subtle touch because it wasn’t as obvious as giving her a bunch of stuff with roses on it!
• Beauty-
• Hair- I think Belle’s hairstyle fits her personality so much I didn’t want to change it to much! I love this braided hairstyle so much! I think it looks so similar to Belle’s original and looks so modern at the same time! This really does look like something Belle would do to her hair! I really wanted to include the bow because it just looks so good on her! I love that the bow is the same color as the dress! I picture it being at the bottom of her braid near the hair-tie!
• Eyes- This eye makeup is gorgeous! I love the blend of the white and blue eye shadow colors! It is so pretty! I like that the colors aren’t vibrant! Just a subtle touch to add some color to her eyes! Her eyelashes are so long and full as well! Who doesn’t want eyelashes like that?
• Lips- This peachy/pink lip color is perfect for her! It isn’t to much and it isn’t to little! I think this is a very flattering color and works fantastic for the set! It also looks slightly similar to her original color!
• Nails- These nails are so pretty! I think they look great with the outfit! The blue nails with the white accent nail! Those flowers look so pretty too! Adds some fun to the outfit!

Belle Winter Green 
This outfit is super cute originally! I love the style of the dress and I love how it looks on her! My modern interpretation is quite different, but I love it. I think it still stays true to the original outfit, just in a modern way... :)

• Outfit-
• I don’t see to many people spending the day outside in the snow in a dress… That is the reason I gave Belle pants instead of a dress. I really liked this shirt. It is very casual and looks very pretty! The green is so vibrant and beautiful as well! I decided to give her some regular white skinny jeans. I felt they went with the green shirt more than light green jeans would have. I think the shirt and pants look great together. The shoes are really different from the rest of the outfit, but I think they are pretty simple and don’t add anything crazy and I really liked that. I thought they would look good with the overall appearance of the entire outfit, and I am very happy with them. They are also the same color as the coat! It was such a pretty color I had to use it twice!
• Accessories-
• Purse- I didn’t think she needed a huge purse for this outfit! I thought this simple green clutch was just perfect for the outfit and Belle! I love that beautiful green color!
• Jewelry- I gave her just two pieces of jewelry because I didn’t feel that she needed to much! I love this pendant necklace! I think it is amazing! When it would lay against her shirt I think it would look really good! Adds a pop of sparkle to the shirt! I love the gold and jewels surrounding it! I really liked these earrings because the shapes were so different! I think they look so pretty and look amazing with the outfit!
• Outerwear- I chose the same color of her cloak for this coat! I think it really works with the outfit! Her cloak was pretty long so I gave her a longer coat. I think it looks fabulous and really adds something to the outfit! I really loved this white infinity scarf! It looks so good with the entire outfit! This coat and scarf look so comfy and warm for the outfit!
• Beauty-
• Hair- I chose this hairstyle because I liked how cute it was! I thought having her hair down would look really good with this outfit! The curls are so pretty, I love how they aren’t all the same size! I wanted to include her hair bow in this outfit as well so I gave her this headband! I think this is so cute, and it would add something a little extra to her hairstyle!
• Eyes- This subtle makeup is so perfect! I love the black eyeliner and those lashes! I just love the way they look! The light green eye eyeliner on the bottom adds just the most amazing pop of color to the makeup!
• Lips- I love this color! I think it adds such a pretty pop of color to the entire set! It breaks up all those wintery colors! I like that it looks similar to her original as well! This color is so pretty! Almost a raspberry color!
• Nails- I chose this color to bring in just a touch of the original light green in the outfit! I think it is a good small representation of it! I really like how bright the color is as well!

Belle Winter Pink

This outfit is very similar to the winter green outfit! I didn't make the modern outfits to similar though. This outfit is different from her original outfit, but still similar! The colors are a lot more different than the original but same concept when it comes to color! I loved her original outfit and I think this is a very good modern interpretation of it!

• Outfit-
• Like the green outfit, I didn’t really see it necessary to keep Belle in a dress while she is spending time outside. She is pretty active outside so I wanted something she could move around in. I thought this sweater was so cute! It looks so comfy and warm even with the sleeve length! I really liked the sleeve length because it was the same as her original dress! I know my colors in this outfit are not identical to hers in the original, but they are very similar. I really liked these skinny jeans for the outfit. That cream color is gorgeous and looks fantastic with the entire outfit! I think they would be very comfortable and warm while she was playing outside with the Beast! These boots work so well with this outfit! They look so warm from the wool fabric on the inside and I like that you can fold them down! I think these would be great and keep her from getting her socks wet!
• Accessories-
• Purse- I love this purse! I think it is adorable because of the color and the size is great! It isn’t to big and is not to small! It looks fantastic with the whole set, and I like the two different strap options that allow her to carry it in her hand or sling it on her shoulder!
• Jewelry- I love this baby pink jewelry! I think it is such a flattering color and looks amazing with the whole set! I love this multi-strand bracelet! I think it would look good wrapped around her wrist below the sleeve of her shirt! The gold plate adds something really beautiful and different to the bracelet as well. The ring is very pretty, the rose gold band is simple and stunning. The jewel is beautiful and the diamonds surrounding it gives it such a wonderful touch of elegance that really does something great with the set. I think it would look amazing on her hand and goes fantastic with the entire outfit. These earrings are so cute! Earrings do something great for every outfit, and I think they are adding the perfect stuff to this outfit! They are so simple but the pop of color against her dark hair would look so great!
• Outerwear- So for this outfit I decided to use two warm pieces instead of a coat. I know they only do so much to keep her warm, but they just look so cute with the entire outfit! I really liked this beanie! I like the knitted look and that baby pink color is so cute! I think it is the perfect hair accessory and would keep her ears warm as well! The scarf is so cute too! I really like the baby pink in this outfit! It adds a lightness to the outfit that is reflected by the light mood in this scene of the movie! I love how this would keep her warm and creates a great contrast of the different pinks as it would lay against her shirt!
• Beauty-
• Hair- I loved this hair style for the outfit! I think the relaxed curls are perfect for her and would look great with the beanie as well! This really fills out the set and I really feel this is the perfect style for her with this outfit!
• Eyes- I loved this makeup! It almost looks like a pink smokey-eye! I love the different shades and the eye liner gives it a more adult looking vibe. It is very easy for pink eye shadow to make you look like a little kid, the eye liner and mascara really help to make it look more for an adult rather than a kid! But the different pink colors really are gorgeous!
• Lips- This lip color seems like a basic pink color. I really liked that, so much pink is going on in this outfit, I feel that this color isn’t to crazy! I like that it isn’t to dark and isn’t to light. Really perfect for her and the set!
• Nails- These nails are gorgeous! I love them! I want them! I need them! But seriously… They are perfect for this outfit! I love the pink color (obviously) and the white with the glitter is a perfect accent! Just like the white with the black stripes! The different nail designs really add something great to the nails! Which makes them great for her outfit!

Belle Elegant

This is one of Belle's most iconic outfits! I thought it was one of the most beautiful things ever when I was little, and still do! I really enjoyed modernizing this outfit and am so incredibly happy with the outcome! I hope y'all are too!

• Outfit-
• Choosing a big yellow ball gown was a little hard… I really love this dress, I like that it is a ball gown (technically an A-Line, I know) and still looks modern. I like the color! It is so vibrant and she would really stand out in it! The silver jewel accents are so pretty and add such an elegance to the outfit! The sweetheart neckline is gorgeous and the waistline is very flattering! I like the many layers in this dress, very similar to the original and I love that! I think these silver shoes were perfect! The lace design on them is gorgeous! The really are beautiful shoes! I think they match the silver accents of the dress wonderfully!
• Accessories-
• Purse- I did use a lot of silver in this outfit, it looks overwhelming as a set, but if you think about how small these pieces are, it looks wonderful! I really liked this sparkly purse! The clutch is the perfect size for a ball and the chain adds another way to carry it! The sparkly-ness of it really is awesome! How many purses do you know are that sparkly!
• Jewelry- As you can see, I kind of had a theme for the jewelry! I really think this rose theme is beautiful to the story but also subtle. This beautiful cuff bracelet could seem just like a regular cuff bracelet with intricate designs, but when you look close… BOOM! It’s a rose! Yeah, sneaky right? The ring is not so subtle, I think it is fairly obvious that it is a rose, but I think it is truly beautiful! It may be a tad big, but I think that adds to its uniqueness! It fits the theme and outfit perfectly! This necklace is stunning! All of the jewelry had been silver with diamonds, I think that one pearl on the necklace is such a wonderful touch! It’s so simple and so beautiful! I really love all the jewelry in this look and think it is perfect for her and this entire set!
• Beauty
• Hair- This hairstyle is very subtle compared to the rest of the outfit, I absolutely loved that! I think it fits her! It is similar to her original hairstyle but also adds something modern to the outfit. I think the understated hair is perfect for this! Even though it is understated, it is very put together and pretty! I can’t explain it, but I really feel this is just to perfect for her, the small jewel accent is very pretty as well!
• Eyes- This makeup is so amazing! I think it is a very natural looking makeup and the slight green accents would bring out her hazel eyes! The eyelashes look amazing! They are so long and full! I love that the colors in this eye shadow aren’t to crazy!
• Lips- I loved the bright red lips! They are so bold! So perfect for this outfit! And very similar to her original red lip! It adds a much needed pop of color to the entire set!
• Nails- I think these nails are to perfect! I love the nude color with the splash of yellow! I think these are so cute! I think they are perfect for the entire outfit and perfect for Belle! I love how subtle they are but so pretty! 

I started to do these outfits because I love the Disney Princesses! I was just inspired one day about what their outfits would look like now days... Plus you can't always throw on a ballgown to dress in the Disney fashion, but I think these outfits give you the option to be in the style of Disney without looking like you are wearing a costume! I love these outfits, but they can be interpreted in anyway, and that's how I wanted it to be. So if anyone liked them, they could find stuff in their own closets that matched in a similar way! I did every Disney Princess I could think of, and ALL of their outfits (from the original movies, no sequels...yet...)!
