Shop 'til You Drop

[Mizelea Brooks]

Paris, the city of lights and love. Where everyone seems to be bedazzled by it's glory, every place just seems a perfect scenery. At the same time, it was the perfect time to shop. Mizelea Brooks, left Beauxbaton in hopes of finding a new set of wardrobe. Her sister Ximena might be near to perfection but her wardrobe isn't, only a dead banshee would wear her sister's clothes. On the other hand Mizelea had the fashion sense than any other, even her cousins admired her clothes. Most of the time she'll try to leave school during weekends just to shop in London, if ever she won't be able to leave school. She'll be making her own clothes, it just seems to be harder yet it always ends up classy. For this day, the charming brunette wanted to visit France, Paris to be exact. It would be refreshing to shop there, since they hold new and different varieties of clothes. At the same time, she wanted to be the first one to grab the newest bag from a famous designer. It is said that he'll release it this morning, and what better way to have the new bag but be an early bird. Only a couple of hours left before the store would open, the sixth year then began to apparate her way to Paris. She'll probably have some breakfast too, eggs benedict sound delightful right now. Mizzy made her way through the streets to grab some breakfast, toast, eggs benedict and some chamomile tea to start the day. The eggs melted all together inside her mouth, followed by a plate of mouth watering blue and red berries. In a few minutes, everything seems to be gone. A bright smile on the witch face popped, when was the last time she had eaten a breath taking breakfast like this?

Once she was done lingering then eating everything up, Mizelea payed the bill and got her satchel along with her. First stop, a famous shoe store. It's been weeks since the student dream of having a new set of shoes, one pair wouldn't be enough for her. She roamed around the shop, looking some shoes that will catch her attention. At first she noticed this neon pink high heels, five inches and covered with wonderful gems. She asked for her size and tried it on, it only took her a few seconds to decide that she'll buy the said shoes. Afterwards, she stumbled on some red strapless heels. "This would look perfect with my newly bought dress a week ago!" the brunette exclaimed with delight. After buying two pairs, she left the shoe store with a warm smile and checked her muggle watch. She could still buy a brown dress, before going to the said store. Mizelea entered a clothing store, Armani. Hoping to find a dashing brown dress for her, since her mother advised her to get a dress with the shade of brown. Since it would make her eyes pop, the sixteen year old wandered around the store, while looking for the perfect dress. She knew that the price wouldn't matter, her parents are aware of how her credit card bill is. Though they really don't mind, with her perfect grades and stat, it's the reward she gets in return. Mizelea tried on a green dress, she saw and asked if there was another color for it. Luckily, the other dress is brown. She tried it as well and held it for a while, still searching for some other brown dresses.

 

[Corey Lovre]

Corey Lovre walked the streets of Paris. It was her favorite place to be in the whole world, lights, glamour, and love. So much different from the run down orphan edge that she grew up in. But now she was legally emancipated and living off her dead parents insurance money. Corey hated where all the money came from, but she had never known her parents and she knew they would want her to be happy. That was why parent's planned for the worse right? It wasn't like Corey spent a lot of money anyway she stayed at school and with friends so she didn't pay rent. The only things she really indulged in were Quidditch and Clothes. So today being as lovely as it was Corey decided she needed some more of the latter. Corey dressed in a stylish outfit and pulled her hair up checking to make sure her debit card was in her handbag before she headed off to the fireplace. Corey couldn't apparate yet, but she was getting there until then she used floo powder. It was a fast way to travel as long as there was a bathroom nearby to straiten ones appearance afterwards. Throwing in a fair amount of powder and stepping in Corey flew threw the network until she stopped in a small wizarding tavern inside pairs.

Fixing her outfit before Corey headed back out she felt pretty confident that today she would find some nice things. Looking around and popping in a few high end stores nothing really caught Corey's eye. She didn't even try anything on, nothing just spoke to her. So saving one of the best for last Corey walked into Armani with renewed vigor. This place had never failed her before and she had a felling today would be no different. Just after crossing the threshold Corey found a pair of sunglasses she had to have. Trying them on sealed the deal, she couldn't live without them. Looking around a bit she also saw some adorable jeans and a pair of black and gray high heeled shoes to match. Trying the entire ensemble on Corey liked what she saw, 'It's like they were made for me.' She thought contently. Deciding that one outfit wasn't enough she made her way to dresses. Looking at a lovely blue one she looked up and saw no other than her quidditch captain Mizelea. She was holding a pretty brown dress that looked perfect for her, "Hey are you going to buy that?" Corey asked raising and eyebrow, "Because I bet it would look fabulous on you." She finished with a grin.

 

[Mizelea Brooks]

There were a lot of choices to choose from, red, gold, green, pink but for today it was all about her brown dress and the bag she's been dying to have. As she held the brown dress near her, Mizzy decided to wander around the store a bit just to make sure that's she isn't missing out on anything gorgeous. Along the corner she found these sparkle dress, though it wasn't exactly the shade of brown more of gold actually. Besides there aren't any parties to attend to, well maybe next year during their graduation or even after. A brunette was too busy lurking around, that she didn't actually heard someone talking to her. She twirled a bit and faced the stranger, it wasn't exactly a stranger. Her face very familiar, a Beauxbaton student like her. The girl's face struck her mind, thinking of what her name may be. She was sure though that she had met her during her first try-outs of Quidditch. "Zoey, Tori, Lori, was it?" As she faced her smiling, Mizelea tried to remember her name, of course she know her name since after she's her teammate. "Corey! Is it?" she answered with a hint of wonder if she got her name right. She held her dress near to heard her say something more, "Oh, I think so. Thanks!" Mizelea knew that she'll be buying a lot more than this, besides there were a lot of pretty things to missed out.

The young gal wondered if Corey knew about the bag, the one she's been waiting for. There were only limited stock and first come means first serve. She looked at her watch and wondered if she can still catch it and buy a few of course. Looking at her muggle watch, only an hour remain. Which means she should start buying this dress and what ever she like, then she could entertain Corey after. Usually she wouldn't find any other students shopping, probably because they other things to do. Boyfriends, friends, gossip and mostly anything that Mizelea lack. She figured Corey loves Quidditch which mean they'll get along easily and the fact that they're almost the same age and look she loves shopping. Why would she be here out and away from school, if she doesn't intend on buying anything or probably just to have a bit of fun in the eyes. Window shopping and stuff, she had tried doing that countless times and never did she got tired of it, ever. Mizzy stood there looking at the back of Corey's head, eyeeing another fabulous dress. Which only means she'll get two brown dresses and a new boots she's been looking at. Then she'll try it afterwards and all will be well.
