Here's how to assemble your own Hogwarts fan-person look on the cheap (check the Styling Credits below for deets):
1. Wear your fave jacket resembling something school uniform-y.
2. Add your free school crest of choice (I abdicated my true Gryffindor colors today + went with my secret Slytherin tendencies instead).
[2.5. Optional: If choosing Slytherin, or finding oneself in an evil/gloomy/cranky or similarly brooding mood, slip into the $1L runny mascara skin by The Body Boutique that I'm wearing here].
3. Add a striped tie or scarf (preferably in your Hogswarts school color; I envisioned Slyth's to be green, 'natch).
4. Add a schoolbag or backpack (if you don't have one, the $25L backpack at the massive 75% off sale at Coco's will do nicely; you'll find it upstairs, along with the other way marked down stuffs).
5. Grab a magical animal of some kind to accessorize (you can usually snag one for free at the Stray Pig lucky boards; these rabbits here are my cousin's, that I renamed Licorice and Morticia).
6. Wear your free wand + assume appropriate hoity-toity spell-casting pose.
7. Hey Presto, you're Hogswarts-ian!
(I will also take this opportunity to mention that perverted, made-up spells like Panties Vanishus! will not work, as vigorously attempted on yours truly, once upon a Halloween).
Next stop Pottersville love + fashionista kisses to all!
