Today is Slytherin Day!

I must confess, I have a huge soft spot for Slytherin, and I can't really explain why.  Severus Snape is one of the most complex and exciting characters I've encountered, especially in young-adult-style literature, and I really like what J.K. Rowling did with him throughout the series.  Perhaps this explains my love for Slytherin.  Because I am certainly no Death-Eater.

So today I was Snape.  Obviously.

Status:

"You applied first for the Defense Against the Dark Arts post, I believe?" Professor Umbridge asked Snape.
"Yes," said Snape quietly.
"But you were unsuccessful?"
Snape's lip curled.
"Obviously."

Caption:

"After all this time?"
"Always."

And now, my outfit.

I choose to portray Slytherins, the ambitious little buggers, as business-extremely-casual.  I have a forest green men's button-down from Salvation Army as well as a green tie, and I'm wearing a grey ribbed tank under it.  I would wear slacks or something, but it's way too hot outside.  I used to have a silver snake ring that I would wear, but I think I gave it to a friend.

Tonight's the big night.  I'm not wearing this outfit for that (I'm representing all four houses instead) and I guess I might update you on what I do wear, but probably not because it's nothing special.

Wish me luck!
