My Original Thoughts
The first time I watched "Beauty and the Beast" was a loooong time ago. My mother loved, and still loves, that movie, along with my sister. Naturally, they made me watch it over.. and over.. and over. No matter what though, I never got a real opinion of Belle. She was just kind of there. At all my costume parties, and such, my mom and older sister always tried me to dress up in Belle attire for Halloween, but I left that for all the other girls. ;) I was just never a Belle fanatic.
My Thoughts Now
Some habits die hard, because I'm still not in the Belle fandom. (or "BatB" for that matter) And let me just say, I hate how some people find her the most intelligent! Her vocabulary is somewhat lengthy, but just because reads books (which she specifically said she reads fiction) does not make her smart!
Okay, okay, rant mode off. Either way though, I don't love Belle, I don't really like Belle, but I don't dislike her. I love her bravery; I consider her one of the most brave selfless princesses, but I don't really like much else. I used to like Beast, the angry jerk. Then, he got Belle. After that, Beast goes all lovey-dovey like Belle and is ruined lolol.
Beauty
No doubt about it, Belle can be beautiful. The reason I say can is because I find her very inconsistent. Her ever-changing lip color gets on my nerves. And tbh, Belle's hair is super stringy and not my favorite color. Her eyes are really pretty, even though I usually don't like hazel-ish eyes. I love her skin tone and dayum I adore them cat nails! Overall, she ends up toward the high middle of my list for this.
Wardrobe
I don't hate Belle's wardrobe; it's just not my favorite.. A lot of it is just meh for me. The blue dress not that impressive, along with the green dress, and the cape (of which I hate that hideous pink-ish color.) I do somewhat like the yellow ballgown. My favorite of hers would have to be the pink dress Belle wears UNDER the ugly cape. Now that pink color suits her and it simply looks lovely.
Voices
Speaking
I don't particularly have a problem with Belle's speaking voice. It's nice, but I have no reason to love or hate it.
Singing
This is the one place where my opinion has changed vastly. I used to absolutely HATE Belle's annoying singing voice. Something about it almost made me cringe. Then, I really started to focus on the voice more each time I watched "BatB." Turns out, I adore it now! It's beautiful, and it's almost hard to explain. :)

She is adorable and overrated! This poor orphaned little girl did not give up, even though she was kidnapped and forced to go down a scary black hole! She was kind to the mice, and had faith that they would help her! She was kind to Rufus, and instead of keeping the diamond for herself, she gave it to a museum! I would adopt her!
2. Wendy
Another adorable girl, who was brave! She was sweet to Tinkerbelle and the lost boys, even though they tried to kill her!
3. Little Elsa
Sweet and playful, and she was smart to know to call her parents when Ana was hurt!
4. Little Tiana
Good daughter and good friend!
5. Alice
Smart and imaginative! Sweet too!
