As she was walking down the street, Hermione's bodygaurds stepped out to join her. Hermione groaned and told them to keep an eye on her from a distance. The gaurds immidiatly fell back. Sighing with content, Hermione wondered why her parents insisted she have bodygaurds.
Hermione's first stop was to the Coach store. She had always seen girls carrying the cutest purses from there, but had never bothered to check it out. As soon as she walked into the store, she received a stare from one of the shoppers. "OHMIGOD! You're Hermione Granger right? The richest sixteen year old in the world!" the girl was talking so fast that Hermione could barely make out the words. She had beautiful manicured nails and by the way she dressed, in a Gucci top with Versace jeans, and Prada pumps, Hermione could tell she was a "rich girl" like her.
"Yeah, that would be me," Hermione replied, trying her best to act cool. "I should make new friends if I'm gonna get a new look," she thought, as the girl flipped back her long, lushily curled hair. Just then something in Hermione's mind clicked. "Wait a second, you're Lauren Phillipe right?"
"That's me," the girl grinned, showing off her perfectly white teeth. Hermione had heard all about Lauren Phillipe. She was from a wealthy well-known muggle family and attended Beauxbatons. Lauren was Hermione's equivilant in her school.
"OHMIGOD!" Hermione shouted. She was starting to get the hang of this rich girl thing. "If she can pull this off, I totally can," Hermione thought. "You totally have to show me around! I've never really gone shopping before since I never really cared about my image," Hermione blushed.
"It's totally cool. I can't believe you have never been shoppin before! Trust me. It's every girls dream come true to hit the stores I go to. We should get to know each other a bit more since we're kind of in the same boat." Lauren stated.
"Too true," Hermione replied. She was really starting to like Lauren. Maybe she really could pull this off.
"First we need to get you a sexy purse, or two, or three. Well, you get the idea," Lauren informed Hermione. Hermione giggled as Lauren led her over to the newest designs.
After spending about thirty minutes browsing, Hermione picked out a white leather purse with different colored polka dots, a pink one with C's, a black one with C's embroidered on it and a leather pocket, and a light blue suede pocketbook with white leather.
Hermione and Lauren visited Gucci, Versace, MAC, Armani, Prada, Saks, as well as other "rich girl" stores. Lauren and Hermione shrunk all their bags to fit into their pockets. They were allowed to use magic out of school because they were their school's prized students and the Minister of Magic trusted them as well. Lastly, Lauren took Hermione to her favorite salon to get her hair done, a manicure, a pedicure, her eyebrows done, and a facial. At this point, Hermione and Lauren were talking like they had known each other for years.
"So what do you want to do with your hair?" Lauren asked.
"I was thinking of getting it angled and highlighted," replied Hermione. Lauren nodded in consent. After her hair was finished, Hermione and Lauren got their nails done french, and then headed to their facial and to get their eyebrows done. When they were completely finished at the salon, Lauren grinned at Hermione and pulled out a mirror from her purse. She pushed it in front of Hermione's face and smirked at the gasp that came from her new friend. Hermione looked like a goddess.
"Now all we have to do is get you changed into one of your new sexy outfits," Lauren giggled.
"You're the greatest!"
"I know, I know, the bathrooms are over there," Lauren pointed with a freshly manicured nail.
Hermione headed to the bathroom and enlarged one of the bags. She changed into a short denim mini skirt, stilletto heels that tied up her leg, and a black beaded halter top. She pointed her wand to her head and whispered a spell that put her hair into soft curls. Then she enlarged the MAC bag and applied mascara, black eyeliner, and gave her honey eyes a smoky look. Then she applied some gloss with a slight pink tint to her full lips and some blush to her perfect skin. She smiled at her reflection in the mirror just as she heard a slight rap on the door.
"Are you done?" Lauren inquired.
"Nearly," Hermione swiped off a bit of lipgloss on the cheek, shrunk her bags again so they would fit in her pocket and opened the door.
Lauren gasped, "Damn girl! The guys will definatly be checking you out now!"
"Do I really look that good?"
"Even better than me!" Lauren faked a jealous expression. Hermione laughed.
"Thanks for everything!"
"My pleasure. Call me if you're not doing anything on Saturday, kay?"
"You know it," Hermione grinned as the two girls split up. "I'm starting to like this new look. Maybe I should let the other muggleborns at Hogwarts to let out my secret," Hermione thought.
Hermione had never wanted to be treated differently just because her parents were the richest muggles in the world. So she had had her parents pay all the other muggleborns as well as the headmaster and the teachers to keep it secret that she was rich in the muggle world. She had told everyone at school that her parents were dentists instead of lawyers, and only the muggleborns knew the truth. "Yes, I'll let them know my little secret," Hermione concluded. "Even if it isn't much of a secret."
Reaching her car, Hermione opened up the door and stepped inside. As soon as she was out of the mall's parking lot, she blasted on her Green Day CD. Grinning, she set of towards home.
