We know it’s always been your wish to have a magic wand to fill your closet full of the cutest and trendiest clothes. Consider your wish granted, because in honor of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2”, the last movie premiere of the Harry Potter saga, we’re dusting off the old Sorting Hat to advise you on enchanting outfits you can rock, according to your Hogwarts’ house!
Gryffindor:
As a Gryffindor, we already know you are courageous and brave, which means you can be just as daring in your wardrobe choices! We paired this super cute dress from Forever 21 with red flats, comfortable and ideal for the adventures you are likely to embark on. These bold embossed earrings complement this owl necklace, a tribute to the best owl Gryffindor has ever seen, Hedwig (RIP). A black-bowed headband and gold lion brooch round out this look, so you can match your mascot in fierceness. In this outfit, you will definitely make The Fat Lady jealous, so if you have to spend the night in the corridor because she won’t let you into the common room, don’t say you weren’t warned.
Ravenclaw:
Ravenclaws are known for their intelligence and wit, which is why we carefully chose this Forever 21 romper that is practical for you sensible fashionistas. We logically added these suede pumps because they are totally chic and we are totally loving them. We chose the ever trendy fedora hat instead of including the Ravenclaw diadem since you destroyed horcruxes are so out of style. This sky blue scarf along with these earrings and ring that will make you absolutely charming! If you don’t take our word for it, ask the head of your house, Professor Flitwick, who teaches Charms everyday!
Hufflepuff:
Just because you are a hard-working Hufflepuff does not mean you can’t be a fashionista as well! It’s no secret that your kindness radiates via your sunny personality, and we’re reflecting that for you head to toe. Really, we did! Look at that vivacious headband and these adorable Old Navy flip flops! With this romper from Forever 21, the gold earrings and necklace will make you look appropriately magical for any occasion, like say, the Yule Ball? Now all you need is a date that can match your level of fabulous-ness! This bedazzled gold ring will keep you sparkling like Cedric Diggory, and is the perfect finish to this outfit!
Slytherin:
Two words to describe Slytherins? Ambitious and cunning? Try glamorous and stunning. We feel this Forever 21 bandage dress holds a certain sophistication that only a Slytherin could uphold. The snake skin heels and green chunky bracelet are nods to the mascot, and the silver medallion is for those who are from pure-blooded wizarding families. The peacock feather headband will make everyone else’s heads turn, showering you with the recognition you want and feel you deserve. With these three options for earrings, we’re guaranteeing Snape will give you five extra house points, as if he wasn’t going to already.
Okay collegiettes, we know you can’t actually frolic around Hogwarts grounds in these outfits, but you can definitely wear elements of each while reading The Daily Texan (in lieu of The Daily Prophet), dancing on 6th street or attending the Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows Part 2 premiere, July 15!
