And here's me!
I'm wearing my own pair of tweedy trousers, white shirt and men's brown brogue shoes.
If you can see a green creature attached to my lapel, that is a Bowtruckle which my Mum crocheted for CBC last year. He's super cute.
The suitcase came from Sarah Nelson Gingerbread in Grasmere and we filled it with various animals including
Ones we already owned: Owl, Fox, Squirrel, Foxsquirrel, Crab
Bought for 1 sickle a piece at Harry Potter night: Another Bowtruckle, 2 Nifflers, 1 Pygmy Puff.
It was great fun to get dressed up like this and I found the sideways glances on the train amusing!
Lots of the children at school knew who I was straight away. Others, mainly younger, were not sure. It was fun opening up my case and sharing the animals with the children.
Lots of the other teachers made a great effort. Other costumes included: Wizard of Oz Year 5: 2 witches, 1 Lion, 1 Dorothy, 1 Scarecrow, How to train your dragon Year 4: Hiccup the Viking and Toothless, Year 6: Alice in Wonderland: Queen of Hearts, Alice (wearing my dress), Mad Hatter, White Rabbit; Year 2: Snow White x 2, SMT: Peter Pan and Tinkerbell,
I'd love to know if you dressed up and what you were?

Brilliant. I think the niffler has to be my all time favourite. Being a fellow Hufflepuff I relate to Newt Scamander!

Was not involved today, but my granddaughter went to nursery as the Gruffalo.
ReplyDeleteThe children at our school celebrated World Book Day today and some of them had outfits on as they walked past on their way to and from the boat - great fun. And great fun is exactly what your outfit looks like Kezzie! I loved the film and think this is a great copy - amazing, in fact. The suitcase packed full of toys must have gone down a storm with the children. You look totally fab x
ReplyDeleteI don't know the character, the book or the film (sorry!) but you look bloomin' brilliant! x
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed parts of the first film but couldn't even bring myself to watch the second one (and it looks like I made the right decision.) That said, your outfit is brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great outfit, you looked fab! I missed World Book Day, not being in school this year... though I did see a few costumes as I'm still working in schools!
ReplyDeleteI'm an definitely not into Harry Potter but you did very well with the outfit.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Julia
I'm afraid I haven't heard of Newt Scamander, but your outfit is spot on, Kezzie. Love CBC's coat! xxx
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh this is so good - what a great costume idea Kezzie!

You have recreated this outfit perfectly. The coat is amazing and I do like the long scarf, it has Harry Potter vibes written on it.
ReplyDeleteI love this!!! Your outfit is perfect. Great job! :D
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing! You're so clever! Bet it was fab when the kids knew who you were!

I love this outfit you and hubby are always ingenious! I chuckled when I read your comment about the sideways glances on the train :-) I had an epic fail on WBD and things were made worse when Pip's friend AJ came down to breakfast on Thursday morning sporting an Ana dress! Is the Frozen Disney film actually based around a bone fide book? Anyhoo I made amends with a trip to Waterstones so they could both choose a book :-) Phew! xx
ReplyDeleteAmazing! You always do such a wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteThis is an AMAZING outfit, I love it! My daughters school just did PJs for wold book day which was easier for me, but not quite as much fun! x
ReplyDeleteThis is an EXCELLENT costume! You look marvellous! xx
ReplyDeleteLove it! I think you look great and adore the fact you went as a male character.
