I’m still obviously in Halloween mode (and probably will be from now until Oct 31st) because when I was checking out Addition-Elle’s new arrivals I fell in love with this cowl neckline sweater with belt ($59.99) and it has me thinking of an updated Velma from the Scooby pack with this black and grey striped plaid pleated skirt ($38) from Torrid. All it needs is red tights (or fishnet knee highs ($6) if you’re a little spicy) from We Love Colors and Arcopedico Shawna Croc Patent ($139) from Zappos. Wear as an everyday outfit or when Halloween comes around add a black/red bob wig ($12) and cheap spectacles ($4) and you’re ready to go.
If you love Velma keep your eyes open you may find some better substitutes. And definitely let me know!

I feel like I’ve always been channeling Velma because I love funky knees socks and the most comfy shoes I find are always Mary Janes! 🙂
Also, I’m a librarian and Velma totally has the mind of a librarian. lol. Dig this tee-shirt: http://www.jephdraw.com/random/libraryscience.png
That’s an awesome tee! I just got a Velma tee from Threadless, she’s a little more ferocious and kills zombies. Totally cool.
