Book-Inspired Outfits: Hogwarts Edition

The first time I did this, I focused on some of the women in the Classics genre. I got good feedback from that, so I wanted to do another one - focusing on some YA characters. For the third one, I thought it'd be fun to focus on the four houses at Hogwarts. Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff. Again, these are just inspired outfits - mostly from their colors, and not necessarily from the actual characters in the books.

GRYFFINDOR

Scarlet and Gold

bravery, courage, and chivalry

SLYTHERIN

Green and Silver

ambitious, cunning, resourceful, manipulative

RAVENCLAW

Blue and Bronze

intelligence, knowledge, and wit <- my favorite house for some reason!

HUFFLEPUFF

Yellow and Black

patience, loyalty, hard work, friendships

Again, these are just inspired outfits. You can always mix it up, change it up, and do it differently according to your own personality and taste. I for one chose these outfits mainly because I personally would wear it.

Now I have to admit I had the most difficult time with Ravenclaw. For some reason, I couldn't get a "blue and bronze vision." Maybe because I don't feel like they really match. Ha.

Anyway, I encourage (and challenge!) you to do house-inspired outfits too. Either link up to your actual Polyvore account or do a separate post on your own blog. Either way, have fun!

Character Inspired Outfits + a challenge

The first time I did this on Polyvore, I focused on the women in the Classics genre, and what they would wear today, right now. I had a lot of fun making those sets of wardrobe, so I decided to do it again. This time, it's dedicated to the girls, ladies, and women of the YA genre. Note that these outfits are simply my interpretations; inspired by the characters only. It does not necessarily show how they would actually look like or dress.

You can use Polyvore, and then show me the link to your creation. You can either post it on your blog or you can just link me to your actual Polyvore account. Signing up is fast, free, and easy by the way; an email address is all that's required so don't worry about that part. A week from today, if there's at least 3 people who did this challenge, I'll be posting up their creations up here on the blog.
Also, Let me know if you have any suggestions for future Polyvore characters! Have fun creating your own outfits :)
