Princess is a 2 year old Pomeranian. Her fur is a "Blue Merle" color. She is larger in size than most Pomeranians, so she weighs 11.8 pounds. ^_^
Princess Cruises SKY PRINCESS berthed at the then relatively new Darling Harbour Passenger Terminal, replacing "No 13 Pyrmont". This terminal was right next to the Sydney Aquarium, it was later demolished and in it's place King St Wharf was built with bars, shops and apartments, as well as providing berthing for the party/dinner cruise boats on Sydney Harbour.
SKY PRINCESS was launched in 1984 as Sitmar Cruises FAIRSKY (the second Sitmar ship to carry the name) and was also their only new build to enter Sitmar service. Renamed SKY PRINCESS (along with all the other Sitmar ships being given "Princess" names, the only exception not to lose her Sitmar name being the FAIRSTAR in Australia), when Sitmar was sold to P&O Princess Cruises in 1988. Later again she was renamed PACIFIC SKY when she was transferred to P&O Cruises for full time cruising from Sydney (and later Brisbane) during the early 2000's. She is currently sailing for Pullmantur Cruises as SKY WONDER.

Princess Mary made by Ideal. Hard plastic body, vinyl head. I got her for my seventh birthday in 1955. In this picture she is wearing a Magic Attic outfit. Her hair was originally in a ponytail but not for long.
So my sweet princess came home to check her humble servant Ami's work around her domaine, and approved. Ami will be pleased :) Lots more to do, so more of the same tonight! ♥♥♥X
(Your Mai apologizes for not plunging naked into the Onsen with you, but she still needs to save her outfit :) And she promises to tell Ami to get rid of those clouds of steam!)

IMPORTANT NOTES: This doll is a simplified version of the 2023 Collector Belle. She has a different outfit and accessories, and does not have the same gold glitter makeup seen on the collector edition.
PERSONAL FUN FACT written by my sister: There aren't many Disney movies that I don't like. In fact, I simply LOVE most Disney movies--ones older than me, ones that came out WAY after I grew up...all of them. At some point, 101 Dalmatians was my favorite. At some point before that, it was Bambi. (Why, Colleen, why?) We watched Aladdin so many times that we destroyed multiple copies of it from over watching, and I feel that if the Princess and the Frog had been out in our youth, it would've met the same fate. However, I think my true favorite Disney movie out of them all is Beauty and the Beast. I AM Belle--an odd girl, lost in a book (or five books all at once), who doesn't fit in. A dazed dreamer walking through regular life, but thinking she's somewhere else. Emma Watson truly got to live out my fantasy--not of being Hermione Granger, because I pretty much did live that out in real life (bobbing up and down, hand in the air to answer ever question), but to play Belle on screen! My "favorite" Disney movie has changed (though Beauty and the Beast never left the top five, and Belle has always been my favorite princess) from time to time, but you can't change what your FIRST Disney movie was--and Beauty and the Beast was the first Disney movie we owned on VHS! The two cartoons I remember owning farthest back (though we rented plenty when I was little too) were Beauty and the Beast and a Little Mermaid VHS from the TV series. I know for a fact that we had to have gotten Beauty and the Beast first and, when I say "we" I mean me, because I don't think Shelly was even born yet. I remember when/where we got the Little Mermaid VHS--it was from my Pepere, Shelly was already born, and he gave me the charm bracelet that went with it (it's on Shelly's Forever Hair Ariel doll as a decorative sash). But I don't remember when or where we got Beauty and the Beast, it just WAS. In fact, I had it so long that, as far back as I remember, the beginning was so fuzzy it looked like it was raining. (And because I can't recall a time when it wasn't messed up, I thought it WAS raining, you can imagine my shock when I put in the DVD for the first time as an adult to discover, "It's not raining!") I watched it ALL the time when I was little! In fact, I remember being five, six, and seven, being on the playground or at the grocery store, trying to sing like Belle. I think I was convinced that, if I channeled Belle often enough, that it would manifest and I would BECOME Belle. I also had a fantasy of getting to do Belle's voice for the movie. I didn't have a full understanding of how home video worked back then, but I did know someone drew the pictures. I thought that whoever voiced a character also drew that character's pictures and that, whenever you put the tape in, the voice actor would basically be summoned to perform. (Not sure why I thought that would work--what if the voice actor was in bed or in the shower?) So, I greatly envy Emma Watson for getting to BE Belle for real! And it says something that I saw Beauty and the Beast as a very small child for the first time and that it STILL resonates with me like it did over 30 years ago! (The same can't be said of Bambi--which frankly I now find depressing. Or the Fox and the Hound--also depressing. Or 101 Dalmatians, which I still find cute, but I don't get why I liked it so much between fourth grade and sixth.) I may have enjoyed Aladdin more at times, but, as much as I loved Jasmine, I could never pretend that she was the princess I was most like.
I can relate 100% to how Belle felt when Gaston proposed. He's this gross, overly macho guy, with two many muscles, and a giant ego. He'd be bad enough if he was your stereotypical 21st century jock, but he's worse because he's a hunter, not a football player. There's nothing less attractive to me than someone hanging dead animals on the wall! Yuck. But he didn't take away from the movie. He's so objectionable that I love to hate him and my favorite song has to be "Gaston!" ("Le Fou I'm afraid I've been thinking..." "A dangerous past time" "I know.") The only thing that could make Beauty and the Beast even better is if she never got married to a prince and just stayed in the enchanted castle with the living objects forever! I mean, she'd never have to cook and clean. Shelly likes princesses who cook and clean for a hobby. I like the idea of letting the enchanted kitchen do the cooking and cleaning for me better.
In 2023, American Girl did their first collab with Disney, releasing Belle, Rapunzel, and Jasmine as 18 inch collector dolls. Like some of the holiday collector dolls, these were limited edition dolls bedazzled with swarovski crystals and a three hundred dollar price tag. I thought Rapunzel was really cool and looked most like the movie character. I thought Jasmine was also cool, but looked less like the movie character. Naturally, the one that spoke to me was Belle! However, I couldn't justify spending three hundred dollars on one doll. I'm not saying it's wrong for everyone, but it was just more than I felt comfortable spending. In 2024, they issued three more Disney girls--Tiana, Cinderella, and Ariel. They each were marketed with two separate fashions and weren't much more money than a regular American Girl. I was struck by two things the minute I found out about the second wave of Disney AG: One, Shelly would LOVE Tiana. Two, the price and separately marketed Disney fashions were PERFECT and I was really sad that Belle had launched with the earlier, more expensive dolls with less incentive to purchase them (I see extra fashions as a huge incentive). While Shelly was ordering Tiana (because we lucked out with a HUGE rewards certificate shortly after her release), I felt a pang of regret that Belle would never be.
However, shortly after Shelly purchased Tiana, hope rose anew: I noticed that Rapunzel was reissued as a simplified version, sans swarovski crystals and for a more affordable price tag! If Rapunzel was issued as a playline doll, could it mean that someday...I had to hope, and Shelly said that she read rumors that Belle would indeed be issued as a playline doll too. Rapunzel was issued with two accessories sets sold separately, rather than fashions, but still...so much fun for play. I was disappointed, however, when Moana was released because I was afraid that maybe they weren't going to get to Belle after all. Belle continued to be a pipe dream...a fantasy. Seeing another princess getting released who was NOT Belle? Huge disappointment. We didn't film our American Girl collection video in 2024 because, once Shelly purchased Nicki Hoffman, I had to have her twin, Isabel. It seemed pointless to film without one of the Hoffman twins, when we knew I'd get Isabel. I got Isabel as a "Christmas present" for myself in 2024 and we planned to film our American Girl collection shortly thereafter. But then...BELLE WAS RELEASED!
Shelly was happy for me, but also exasperated that this would put our plans to film our collection on hold yet again. I couldn't WAIT to get Belle. I thought it might take an ETERNITY for her to go on sale. The $70 we had in rewards points that we put toward Tiana was a fluke, unlikely to happen ever again. However, I knew Belle would eventually go on sale. It is so hard to be patient for things one really wants. Belle didn't qualify for a sale they ran over my February break, but Summer Mckinny did and Shelly really liked Summer, so we ordered Summer. It didn't make sense to buy Belle when she'd eventually go on sale, even though I was wildly impatient to finally possess my favorite Disney princess and Shelly wanted to be able to film our AG collection.
Toward the end of March, they ran another sale. I saw an ad for it in my email while I was on lunch at work. (American Girl probably emails me five times a day...Desperation is such an attractive quality in a retailer.) I highly doubted that Belle would qualify, but I hoped! That night, I checked and discovered that, to my delight, Belle qualified! Why she qualified for the sale but Lila, who was the Girl of the Year from the previous year, did not, I don't know! Also, Summer's clothes qualified! We felt really guilty contemplating it, what with buying Summer so recently AND some other outfits we caught on a sale (if we'd known Belle would be on a later sale, we wouldn't have done the other sale, but who'd have thought they'd run TWO consecutive 20% off sales!?). We said we'd think about it...but of course Shelly ordered Belle for me the next day when I was at work! She also snagged one of Summer's fashions and Belle's blue dress so that we'd qualify for free shipping (which is every shopaholics favorite excuse in the world). The end of March 2025 was very much like the end of March 2024--I spent a lot of time eagerly waiting for someone very special to come in the mail, a princess. "A princess is coming to my house!" The 2024 "princess" who arrived was Megan Ryder, my first Magic Attic doll. She is not a princess in the traditional sense, but she will always be as much a princess as Belle to me! I didn't think it would be possible to top the arrival of Megan...but BELLE! Not just a princess, but the first princess I adored.
Shelly ordered Belle on the last Thursday of March. She was supposed to arrive the following Tuesday, the first day of April, but she was two days late! She missed a scan, so I was starting to worry that she'd been lost in the mail--until Shelly texted me and said Belle had arrived! It was also a Thursday, a week after we ordered her. When I moved some things around in the shipping box to prepare to open her on camera, I accidentally saw her lovely face for the first time (I forgot that her box had a window). She took my breath away! So pretty! I love that she uses the Josefina sculpt, just like my Rebecca. It is the perfect look for Belle--very heart shaped, great for her hairline, and very full lips. Her eyes are similar to Rebecca's too, also perfect. Her eyebrows are really unique and I love her extra lashes! She did not disappoint! She is truly a work of art. Her hair is gorgeous too. The color is so perfect. It was a mess though--the lower half of the style was very dry. The bun part...they put it in a separate hairnet which was impossible to safely remove without messing up the style. Shelly thinks they put the bobby pins in after they put the net over it, which is probably true (how else were the pins outside of the net?). So, she had to attend Shelly's Salon for a restyle and conditioning, but she is perfect in every way. I love that she came with her ears already pierced. Shelly could have pierced them, but it was one less step. I love the earrings Shelly made to go with this dress--the flowers she put on the bottom under the yellow ones are PERFECT! They are similar to the ones she made for Tiana's dress.
Getting Belle was a really big deal for me. Back when I was a kid, American Girl didn't do collabs with big companies like Disney. I'm not saying that girls like Molly and Addy aren't just as famous as Belle to me, because they are, but it's really cool that they've expanded to make dolls of our favorite Disney characters. It might not be the traditional way that Pleasant Rowland started the company in the 80s. However, I read in one of our collector books that she wanted to focus on girls and things that mattered to girls. Belle mattered so much to me as a little girl, and I never stopped loving her or forgot about her, even in my late 30s. Belle still resonates with children today and I think she's a good role model. (She uses her brain and she knows that you don't have to marry the best looking man in town if he's a total jerk, even if everyone else thinks you should.) Characters like Moana, Tiana, Rapunzel, Ana, and Elsa may be "after my time," but they are impacting the lives of children (and even adults--I love all of them too) and some of them have already been around long enough that children who grew up with them the way I did with Belle are already grown and might love to have one of them (or more than one of them) as a keepsake. I will cherish Belle--I love her so much! It is still completely surreal to me that American Girl has released Disney princesses, the right size to play with Molly!
...for years after that, Sofia visited the fireflies. They were her only comfort, her only friends. She dare not tell a soul, for fear someone may prevent her from seeing them again. She would sneak from her castle on the hill to the dark forest every morning, the fireflies lighting her way, and stay until dusk...
