Who: Katy (narrative)
When:: Afternoon
Where:: Inside the Tailor's
What:: Looking through the clothes for a costume.

Katie was looking through the pre-made clothing section at the tailor’s shop. She was specifically looking through the Halloween costumes. When she had left on her trip more than a year ago, she had not planned on dressing up for Halloween. So she was lacking in that area. She was actually lacking clothes in general. She had packed a pretty big suit case for her trip, but that wasn’t a normal third of her wardrobe. She’d have to make due and look around for things that suit her decidedly fickle taste.

She pulled out a costume with a red hood and nearly busted out laughing. She could appreciate the irony of dressing up as Little Red Riding Hood considering her situation. It would be pretty funny, but she figured she’d be the only one who would get the joke. She still hadn’t met too many people in this place, let alone made too many friends yet.

She slid the costume back in it place and continued to search. She was not really sure what she wanted to wear yet. Normally for Halloween when she found the right costume she would know. Planning it out beforehand would be too easy and make too much sense. She pulled out a dress with green satin, a black waist cincher, and beige satin cape-let. It was cute, but she wasn’t quite sure what it was supposed to be of, until she looked at the matching accessories. There was a great, oversized green satin top hat with a familiar note with “10/6th” written on it and slipped into the hat’s band.

A female Mad Hatter’s costume. Perfect! Katy had always loved the characters from Lewis Carroll’s famous drug-induced fairy tale. She took the costume off the rack and decided to take it with her. She also found some thick tights in preparation for the weather. Naked legs were sexy, but they were also very cold. She left the tailor’s a very happy girl.
