So I've been doing a lot of dressing up this summer for random things, and I thought I would share those with you.
First: Harry Potter. The night before the premiere of the final movie, my friends and I joked about dressing up. We thought we might do a Hermione before and after with my sister and me being her at various points in the series, but I thought of being Bellatrix Lestrange. It turned out to be a good choice, for with a little bit of black temporary hair dye (ok, a whole can of it), and lots of hair teasing, I think I pulled it off:

muahaha |
 |
Fierce |
 |
The inspiration for my ensemble |
 |
Everyone cheered when she died
in the movie. Awkward. |
Anyway...
My friend Nic decided to be Harry Potter, Cesca a bushy haired Hermione, my friend Ronnie was, of course, Ron, and her sister, Katrina, went to the thrift store and picked up her perfect Luna Lovegood ensemble. We made a great group.
 |
I'm the only one who dressed as a character
who dies in the movie... |
We were totally show stoppers. Got lots of stares and 'whoa, that is awesome' comments.
 |
Unlikely friends |
 |
We're enemies, can't you tell? |
Next was Ren Fest. Only pictures can show the awesomness:
