Woman spends thousands to become a Disney princess

Some people will do anything to get to Disney World — even spend a fortune that would break Prince Charming’s bank account.

Sarah Ingle, 25, has laid out $14,000 on 17 custom outfits to make her look like Disney royalty, all to fulfill her dream of playing a princess at one of the company’s theme parks.

“It would certainly be a dream to be a real Disney princess,” says Ingle, who has transformed herself into the spitting images of princesses such as Elsa of Frozen, Snow White and Cinderella.

“I’m lucky enough to have a friend who is a dress designer, and she works hard to make every dress as perfect as can be,” Ingle, from Denver, told The Mirror Online. “I really feel like the dresses complete the princess transformation.”

Ingle, a marketing manager, has turned her hobby into a weekend gig, appearing at parties and other events for $100 an hour.

But it’s not just the dress that makes the look.

“I was born with really big eyes, and people were always telling me that I looked like a cartoon doll or Disney princess,” she said. “Nothing makes me happier than seeing the look on children’s faces when they see their favorite princess arrive.”

She now shows off her costumes at parties and on Instagram, she dreams of one day working at Disney World as Ariel from “The Little Mermaid.”
