You could be a Disney princess street style star for Halloween — updating your favorite characters' regal looks with flashy statement accessories — or you could jump in a time machine and go totally retro. Oh My Disney is celebrating Disney Throwback Week by giving Snow White, Ariel, Sleeping Beauty, and Pocahontas '70s-inspired makeovers, and we like their outfits so much, we're re-creating them for ourselves.
Read on to see how we're translating these bold hippie looks into costumes, and then shop for all the essentials you need to achieve princess status sans tiara, but plus turquoise beads and fringed vests.

Ariel
Ariel’s channeling the ‘70s in wide-leg belted jeans — a silhouette that conjures images of her teal fins — and completing her look with a striped fitted tee.

Aurora
Sleeping Beauty’s tie-die button-up features a triangle ‘70s-shaped collar and cuffs that she’s tucking into an A-line miniskirt and layering over opaque tights. We’re getting serious Marcia Brady vibes!

Pocahontas
Pocahontas is infusing her look with a Western tinge. Instead of a suede fringed dress, her vest boasts the same details, and it’s layered over a bell-sleeved mustard top. The look is complete with turquoise drop earrings and a matching beaded necklace.

Snow White
Snow White’s retro look is perfectly demure and complete with feminine details that allow her to hang on to her signature style. Go for a poufy sleeve top with a Peter Pan collar and complete with contrasting wide-leg pants.
