princessy

Like pampered royalty

Princessy describes behavior, tastes, or attitudes associated with being a princess—expecting special treatment, preferring luxury, or acting delicate and high-maintenance.

The word is usually mildly critical or teasing: She got a little princessy about the hotel room.

It can also describe aesthetics: The décor was too princessy for my taste—all pink and ruffles.
