Fashion Feats
By: Aziza Xensa
Autumn is in full bluster and with All Hollow's Eve just around the corner, the fashion world is being taken by storm. This season there you can find two trends that won't lead you wrong. One is a look of simple elegance the other for the more adventurous (and fashion forward) wizards.
The first style is to wear a long, form fitting black robe. Something that screams: Gothic England! These will lend to look like dress robes but gives off a more casual vibe. Burgundy knee-high lace-up boots are a perfect shoe and also, they act as a great place to tuck in your wand or any other important document. To top it off, try a scarf to match the boots and a classic witch's hat.
The Men's version of this leans toward Muggle clothes. A long loose fitting robe open over a long Muggle pant and dark collared shirt looks great with the contrast of the women's style. Add a shoe with a small heel and a pointed-off new age wizarding hat and you have an amazing look. All accessories should be blue or for the outgoing wizard enchanted rainbow.
The other is simply divine and works for both men and women. Loose brown robes with yellow and red accents are the basis of the look, but it's the accessories that really matter. A hat in the shape of a pumpkin is a seasonal touch that can't lead you wrong. High-heeled shoes of a contrasting color like blue will make sure that you don't look too 'blah.' And if you are looking for the extra bit of pizzazz you can enchant leaves to fall around you as you walk.
