Snicker. Savannah always felt funny standing next to professors considering she was taller than most of them, especially the female professors. It made her feel all powerful and just generally awesome! Of course, she wasn't that power compared to the professors but that was besides the point. The blonde looked down at her shoes that were shockingly enough, NOT heels, the were just fuzzy Ugg boots. They were CUTE. Savannah looked back up at Hadley as she spoke, smiling. It might be wise to get on at least one professor's good side.

Snort.

"Yes it is."Awh, she was actually being civil towards a professor. Hadley was nice though, unlike Lafay and well...Zookara was just fun to annoy."It's really cold out but any day is good for shopping."She sent her a wink, showing she was excited."I see you are looking at...."Savannah's eyed went to what was in front of her,"Socks...?"

Odd.

Savvy had cool socks, they were pink and had strawberries on them but that was a tale for a different time. Her eyes wandered down to the professor's outfit.

OMG! SHE WAS BLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINDEDDDDDD!!!!!CLOTHES DIDN'T MATCH PROPERLY!!!!! This lady needed help, she needed help with her wardrobe and Savannah, being the saint she was, wanted to help! hopefully she would get extra credit? Winkie.Winkie.

Fee entered the shop.
It kinda remined her of Madame Malkins.
Right there in front of here was this beautiful pink dress.
Fee was stunned and approached it.
This was just perfect for her.

Kurumi opened the door to Gladrags Wizardwear every so slowly. This was bound to be a little overwhelming and, yep, it sure was. Kurumi had never seen so many extravagant looking dress robes and different shades of colors in her life. She closed the door behind her and noticed Fee was already there. Few! Someone with some experience in this field. "Fee!" Kurumi half shouted dashing through the rows and rows of robes. "Help me!"

Fee heard someone almost shouting her name.
Her eyes left the beautiful dress and searched for the person to the voice.
"Ahhh, Kurumi hun", she smiled at her friend.
Kurumi did look a little overwhelmed.
"Sure, where to start ?"

Kurumi grabbed onto Fee's arm as though she had a fear of shopping - which, well...one could suppose she kind of did. She looked at the pink dress that Fee had been admiring. "Oh, that's lovely," she smiled. It would look great with Fee's blonde hair. "I suppose...I could use some new dress robes..." Her eyes went to the rows and rows of dresses in every color known to wizard. EEEP!

Opening the shop door and letting in a vast amount of flurry white specks of snow, Cosette shut the door behind her, letting out a huff. Taking down the hood of her cloak, she started to pick out the snow that was stuck in her blond hair. Grunting to herself, she slipped off her gloves and stuck them in her pants pocket. If any of those crazy first years started a snowball fight near her.. oh they were going to get it. She hated snow. Her eyes suddenly caught on all the things in the shop.

Smiling, she slowly walked over towards one of the racks of cloaks, her fingers brushing lightly on the fabric. Feeling one cloak made of moleskin, then to one made of velvet, she let out a soft sigh. She loved the feeling of soft fabric on her fingertips.

Uh ... Why was Savannah all like quiet?! Somehow Fina knew that the girl had a mouth and knew how to use it. Perhaps it was the funny-looking boots she was wearing, but mostly it was her Slytherin-ness. Slytherins knew how to talk.

Except Savannah was being all quiet and almost Ravenclaw-like right now. Perhaps she felt embarrassed by being taller than a professor? But at that height, she was probably taller than like EVERY girl. Except she was like every other girl in that she found any day good for shopping. Uh what was it with girls and shopping anyway? Didn't they know that books are so much better than looks? Looks can only get you so far, but a book . . . now that will get you a whole conversation!

"I'd rather be reading than shopping," she mumbled, thinking of some good books she had up in her office right now. "Yes ... Socks. And I might be in need of a new robe or two. But socks are everyday essentials." And honestly, if they were just plain black or purple or blue, she'd be content.

"It's just . . . " Feigned sniffle. "I don't know which ones to get? There are SO many choices!"

Fee giggled as Kurumi took her arm. She was sooo adorable.
Noticing the comment about the pink fress Fee smiled.
"Yees, it is i am thinking about buying it."
Fee already had a pink one, but who cared anyway.
"Dress robes, that no problem", she smiled sweetly,"whats your fave colour? I am sure were going to find it."
She was totally in her element. Shopping was Fee's passion.

No problem? Well, at least Fee seemed to think so. The thought of buying a dress was almost enough for her to get a rash Where did she even begin?! She was so concerned over the massive amount of dress robes that she almost didn't catch Fee's harmless little question. "Um...I've always like purple, white, and kind of a dark cranberry red..."

"Reading than shopping!?"

HAHHHHHA. That thought was almost laughable, in fact SAvvy did chuckle. She honestly would rather be gagged with a spoon than reading. Reading was just...yucky. Savannah had never read a book, well minus that ONE she never finished. She didn't see the point, other things were just so much more entertaining things to do......like SHOPPINGGGGGG! Savvy bit her lip, shrugging. "I would much rather be shopping, you know...doing something that didn't require my brain to work that much..." Savannah mumbled. Of course, shopping required work and thinking too but not as much.

"You know, if you wore heels more often you wouldn't have to have so many socks."Savannah said with a shrug of her shoulders. It could like conserve money or something. Savannah's green eyes wandered down to the socks and then back at what Professor Hadley was looking at. Meh, this place didn't have very cute socks, that cute little store in New York had BETTER socks. These were boring, just flat out boring. Did these socks have STRAWBERRIES ON THEM? Yeah, they didn't, proving Savannah's point.

"Do you want me to help you pick socks or something?"

Pffffft....this wasn't weird at all. Just you know, helping a professor pick out socks. If Aiden saw what she was doing he would probably fall over laughing and then die of shock. Savvy was never this nice to professors, NEVER. She was confusing her own self a lot right now.

This was odd.

Purple.White.Dark Cranberry red.
Fee took Kurumi's hand and started walking to the dress robes section.
This was going to be great.
"Wait a second", she smiled," i am going to get you some dress robes you can try on."
She walked trough the rows and immediately found some.

Taking one of each colour Kurumi wanted she made her way back to her friend.


"See, this was easy.A white long-ish one, a cranberry red short-ish one even though this id more cherry red and a purple mid-length one."

Fee smiled widely at Kurumi and hoped she would like the ones she chose.

Kurumi looked at the three dresses that Fee had picked out...even with just three she felt overwhelmed. She slowly reached for the white one first and went to try it on. She came out of the changing room and took a step when....


FLOP!

...she tripped over the fabric and fell right on her face in the middle of the shop. Picking herself up and rubbing her nose -ouch- she half laughed. "Maybe...not this one?" She attempted to twirl in it and ended up stepping on the fabric again, losing her balance, and went crashing into a nearby robe stand.

Fee giggled a little at Kurumi.
"Are you okay,love", she asked.
Mental note: no long-ish ones anymore.

"Dont worry", she smiled,"you just have to get used to it. Thats what i am here for."

Seeing Kurumi crushing into a robe stand Fee rushed upmto her to help her.

"Maybe the short one now?"
No chance for tripping,there.

Kurumi took Fee's hand and picked herself up. "Yeah...I'll try the purple one," she said as she took the dress and waddled back to the changing room making sure not to trip a third time. Long dresses certainly were not her thing...maybe Fee could teacher her how to walk? Oh Merlin...she hadn't even been wearing nice shoes yet! She looked down at her sneakers and blushed. This is what she got for growing up with three brothers.

Now having successfully changed out of the white dress and into the purple one, Kurumi came out of the changing room and *gasp* didn't fall!

"How is this?" she asked giving the dress a quick turn around.

"Dont worry to much,Kurumi", she smiled.

Fee would show her how to be fashionable. It really wasnt that hard and Kurumi was a girl after all.
Even though this would take her a long time she was happy.
Just in her element.

"Woooooow, Kurumiiiiii",Fee squealed as her friend stepped out in the purple dress.
"Do have an idea how adorable you look?"

Kurumi blushed and went over to a mirror to see if she could see the same thing that Fee was seeing.



Kurumi wasn't sure if something this fancy suited her, but she really liked the color. She pulled on her pony-tail and looked over her shoulder at Fee. "At least I don't fall over in this one."

Fee came up behind Kurumi and opened her pony tail.
"With your hair like that you really look beautiful", she smiled," and long,silk hair matches perfectly with the dress."

Kurumi looked like an angel in that dress. But she seemed to feel uncomfy.
What a no-go.

"Dont you like it", she asked," taht the most important. We can go search another one similar to that if you want."

Kurumi smiled at Fee. "It's not that I don't like it," Kurumi said looking back at her reflection that now showed her ebony hair cascading down her sides. "It's just....I've never looked this much like a girl before." She blushed and continued to play with her hair.

Fee smiled sweetly at Kurumi. She would make it. Totally. She would bring the inner girly girl out of Kurumi.
Sweet.

"I am sure you'll get used to it", she said admiring her in the dress,"look how beautiful you are."

And it was the truth, Kurumi looked incredeble.

Kurumi looked for a long time at her reflection. The last time she had dressed up so much like a girl was when she wore a kimono for her 7th birthday and gone to the local shrine. Other than that, it was all jeans, t-shirts, and kendo uniforms. Still...she wasn't sure she would go as far as to call herself beautiful...

"I think I like this dress," she said as she felt the fabric. "I'll try on the last one too, just to make sure..."

Surprisingly, shopping was kind of fun! Or perhaps it was because of Fee's bubbly nature that was making it so.

Fee couldnt belive Kurumi had never worn a real dress like this. She looked so beautiful in thet dress. It suited her perfectly and her long her in combination with the dress. Just amazing.

"If you want", Fee smiled widely,"shopping isnt that bad, is it?"

While Kurumi was changing dresses Fee looked for some matching accesories.

Kurumi came out in dress number three and quickly ran over to the mirror to check out the damage.



Hmm...maybe the purple one was a better match for her at the moment? She felt more like herself in it, more delicate, more fragile. The cranberry dress was, of course, also amazing, but she felt too bold in it. "I-I'm not sure I am confident enough to wear this one," she blushed looking over at Fee.

Fee's mouth flew open as she saw Kurumi in the cranberry dress.
"Wow", she breathed out.
Kurumi looked so much older in this dress and it matched perfectly with her hair.
"Kurumi, the most important thing is that you feel good and pretty in it"m she smiled," if youare not sure yet we can alwys come back and buy this one later."

Kurumi nodded in agreement looking at her reflection again. Maybe by second year she would feel better and bolder and more confident to wear the cranberry dress.

"I think you're right," she winked. "I'll stick with the purple one for now." She went back into the changing room to change back into her school robes.

Fee squaled happily as Kurumi said she would really stick with the purple one.
"You're going to buy it", she asked excitedly.
This was great. Fee had got her to put on 3 dresses and now she was taking one?! Woahh

"We need matchin accesories", she smiled,"i mean if you can still take that."
