Cosplay Look - Hogwarts Student



Hello, everyone! I'm back, and I'm here with the first of my cosplay looks! Today I'm going to show you how to get the look of a Hogwarts student. Considering its September and witches and wizards have already made it to Hogwarts, why not celebrate with your own Hogwarts uniform? With Halloween coming up, you may even want to take your house uniform to a costume party. But enough with the intro. Let's get to the look!



This is the full set of clothing that I use for the look. I got the sweater and the lanyard from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, Florida.  I got the white button up and the tights from Kohls. The shoes are from DSW, and the skirt is from Belk. Most of these items can probably be found in stores near you or, better yet, your closet. Most of these items I've had for awhile. Still, if you want to take you're outfit to the next level, I suggest the sweater and the lanyard or tie. You can get the sweater (from any house) here and the lanyard (also from any house) here. If you want to go the extra mile, you can find all of the ties and scarves here.



In this photo, I have all of my accessories. As you can see, I chose to include a wand. I got this wand overseas at the Warner Bros. studio tour. It is definitely pricey, and if you don't want to go that route, you can create your own wand. If you do want to purchase a wand, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter also carries wands, which you can find here and here. 


This is just a little photo of the wand's box. I love Sirius Black (please come back from the Veil), and it only made sense to get his wand out of the many to choose from. 

The first picture below is just a quick shot of my makeup. I went with a natural look since I'm going back to school. *wink wink*











Enjoy the a-dork-able cosplay shots of me in my ravenclaw uniform. I'll admit that I did a couple of spins in my skirt, and I wish I had either another person to take the pictures or a well-positioned tripod. Maybe then I wouldn't awkwardly have a phone covering my face, but they came out better than expected. This is my first public cosplay, and I hope you've enjoyed it. Feel free to give me some tips on how to perfect my cosplay skills.

Stories I Ate This Month: May and June 2018

Hello, my lovelies! As you've probably noticed, today's post is going to consist of the stories that I have consumed in the last two months as opposed to just last month. This is mostly because May was a world-wind for me, and I didn't really consume a lot of content. I was mostly running around, trying to get my life in order (not that it's in a particular order at the moment), and other miscellaneous duties that took up most of my time. So today, I'm going to play catch-up and tell you my thoughts on the stories that I've consumed in May and June. Let's get to the reviews! I've read two books in the past couple of months, Death on the Nile  and The A.B.C. Murders . Both are by Agatha Christie and feature Detective Hercule Poirot. Agatha Christie has a way of making a puzzling novel that keeps your attention without making things overly graphic or by adding unnecessary action scenes for the sake of drama. She's one of my favorite mystery auth

Stories I Ate This Month: February 2018

Hello, everyone! I'm back and I'm here to review all of the stories that I consumed this month. Yes, this post is over a month late, but I have plenty of excuses. One: I am exhausted. Two: being an intern is tough. Three: trying to live a normal life is much more difficult than I imagined. So, here I am. I'm late to the game. But I'm very excited to show you what I've read for the month. I hope you enjoy this post! The first two books that I finished this month are The Madness Underneath and The Shadow Cabinet by Maureen Johnson. These two books are the "final" books in the Shades of London series. I say "final" but there has been some speculation that the series has not yet been completed, which I tend to agree with. There are a lot of plot lines that haven't been concluded, and there's a new antagonist introduced in The Shadow Cabinet , and the book basically leaves off with a cliffhanger. With the recent publication of Truly Devious

Stories I Ate This Month: March 2018

So this month has been a bit of a bust. I haven’t read many book or watched that many movies, but the show must go on. Also, as a side note, I haven’t finished any season of any particular television shows this month, but I’ve started a few promising ones that will hopefully be completed in April. But anyway, here’s all the books and movies I’ve conquered this month. The first two books I read this month are The Hanging Tree and Foxglove Summer by Ben Aaronovitch. These books are the 5 th and 6 th book in his Peter Grant series which feature Detective, you guessed it, Peter Grant as he investigates criminal matters in London with a tendency for the supernatural. If you haven’t read my review about the other books of this series, I’ll reiterate. Ben Aaronovitch combines everything that I love within his novels, and does it in such a fashion that you can feel the commitment to his craft with every paragraph. His expertise with the London area and the unordinary is clearly visible
