Cinderella Ears

Earlier this year, Disney dropped a new Cinderella collection in honor of the iconic movie’s 75th anniversary. The collection included plenty of gorgeous items inspired by Cinderella, including a spirit jersey, light-up glass slipper, and MagicBand+. But the star of the show was the gorgeous Cinderella Minnie Ears, which have gone viral on social media! But we’ve got an important heads-up for anyone planning to wear these beauties in the park…

It was love at first sight when we spotted the stunning Cinderella Minnie Ears. The silver sequin bow with the heart in the center gave us total glass slipper vibes, and the glittery ears are made to catch all of that Florida sunshine.

And we weren’t the only ones charmed by these gorgeous Ears — we’ve seen them pop up EVERYWHERE on social media over the past few months! Finally, we couldn’t hold out any longer and had to snag a pair of these Cinderella Ears for ourselves to test whether they’re truly the perfect fit.

Cinderella Ears!

On the plus side, the Ears are just as pretty as the first time we saw them and fell in love. But we were disappointed to find out that actually wearing them in the park was a DISASTER!

Just Look at That Shine!

Our first issue with the Ears is that they’re super HEAVY! It literally felt like wearing a second head, there was so much weight to them. Plus, the plastic comb on the headband was verrrrry uncomfortable — we could feel it digging into our head the whole time.

Ouch!

With all the weight, it felt like the Ears were going to fall off whenever we turned our head. Although we were pleasantly surprised with their staying ability since they never did fall off, it just felt like they were unstable perched up there.

Yes, They’re Pretty, But Beware!

Overall, our verdict is that we still think the Cinderella Ears are absolutely beautiful…but they’re better for displaying than actually wearing in the parks. We had a headache after wearing them for 15 minutes and had to take them off before hitting the 30-minute mark. Plus, they’re so heavy, it still felt like we were wearing “phantom ears” for 8 minutes after we took them off!

Better for Admiring Than Wearing!

We did get complimented on them, even during the short time we wore them, so they’re definitely eye-catching, but we won’t be wearing these Ears to the parks again. Overall, the Cinderella Ears are about as comfortable to wear as a glass slipper. Maybe that was the point all along!
