Disney Bounding is a super fun way to show a little of your Disney passion without being over the top obvious about it. Basically, Disney Bounding is when you dress in the colors or style of a certain character, but you use your every day clothes instead of a costume. I’ve done Disney bounds as Elsa, Ariel, Dory, Snow White, Gaston, and Winnie the Pooh (blog posts on those ones still to come!) and now I’ve decided to do Anna from Frozen.
Anna is a great one to do for a Disney Bound because she has several distinct colors that you can easily replicate, often with stuff you already have in your closet. I put together an Anna Disney Bound that I can not only wear out, but that is also work appropriate to add a little Disney into my work day! Here’s how I put it together:
Anna’s look is very well defined with a black top, blue skirt, and pink cape. I chose a simple black t-shirt as the basis for the top half of my outfit. I wear a solid black top quite often so I should probably pick up another one – they just go well with everything, especially when I have skirts with fun patterns and I don’t want to do anything too crazy on the top! This top is from Old Navy, but you can find something similar at Target or on Amazon.
For the skirt I chose to wear a blue pencil skirt. The pencil skirt style makes it great to wear to work, but you could easily do another type of skirt or even blue pants. My skirt is very comfortable, and it’s a bright blue one that I got from LuLaRoe. If you know how LuLaRoe works you know that it would be pretty difficult to find the same one I’m wearing, but luckily I found a lookalike from Amazon if you’re interested!
Anna’s pink cape brings a little more personality into her look, so I’ve decided to represent that by wearing a pink cardigan. Mine is from Target but you can find a similar one on Amazon.
Finally, a couple more little details can make things look even more “Anna.” If I’m wearing this in the winter I pair it with black boots, which is really ideal since Anna wears boots in the movie! But in the warmer weather I’ll do black flats. You can add other small details like a snowflake necklace to represent the frozen land of Arandelle. I also got these amazing Anna style Jamberry nails!
What do you think of my Anna Disney Bound? What’s another character you’d love to see a Disney Bound outfit for?
This is one I’d actually wear! Love it.
Thanks! It’s an easy one to put together!
I love the idea of using characters you like to inspire your wardrobe! It really makes getting ready a fun, creative moment. 🙂 You look great in this! & props to it being work appropriate!!
Thanks so much, Rachel! It really does get me a little more excited to face the day when I have a fun outfit 🙂
I love the colors of her outfit–they’re some of my favorite colors to wear in real life! Great idea for a Disneybound!
Thanks Rachel! I love the colors too – a black top with a colorful cardigan is one of my favorite looks – so I was happy to worked so well for me!
I like that you could actually wear this to work and only a few people would (maybe) figure it out!
Sheila, that’s exactly what I did – I wore it to work and only one person seemed to notice 😉
Oh my goodness, AMAZING!
My sister would love this. She’s frozen obsessed and Anna is just about her favourite fictional character of all time.. gonna need to send her to this post. I love that the look is colourful but functional. You could be out Anna-ing all day and people wouldn’t have a clue (except for those of us in the know!)

Yes, exactly! Sometimes I also wonder if a person might put together an outfit like this not even thinking about Anna at all and Disney Bound without even knowing it!
Adorable!
Thank you!
