While we all know that the Disney princesses lived happily ever after, this new series explores what our favorite animated heroines would look like after one too many drinks. Hangovers happen to the best of us and this series reminds us that even princesses are not immune to the effects of alcohol.
The series uses screenshots from classic Disney movies to capture some of the worst side effects of a hangover. Each scene comes with a charming accompanying poem that provides insight into what the hungover heroines must be thinking. One scene shows Ariel clad in a tangled bed sheet, while another depicts Cinderella sobbing into her fairy godmother’s lap. Each of the cheeky illustrations reminds us exactly how it feels to wake up after one too many drinks.
