Sally-Ann walked down Diagon Alley with her head held high. She was drawing a lot of looks, which she blamed entirely on her outfit. Wizards clearly weren't used to seeing so much skin on display, especially not in the middle of Hogsmeade. But it was the middle of July, and even in Scotland it was hot and sticky. She wasn't going to sweat her way through the afternoon wearing ridiculous robes. Just because she felt like getting her school shopping done early did not mean she was going to make concessions to the misogynistic and Victorian customs of the Wizarding World.
So, despite the stars she was getting from the older witches (and the leers from their husbands) Sally-Anne went about her business. Her first order of business was to finally purchase a broom for herself. She was not at all fond of Apparition, and despite her apathy some days about sticking around the Wizarding World after leaving Hogwarts, she would need a reliable form of transportation. She might not play Quidditch, but she was more than decent on a broom and since cars weren't an option among wizards she would have to make do.
She paused outside Trim Twigs, and wondered for the first time if these heels had been sensible. They made her legs look fantastic, but might not be the most practical attire to test out brooms. Too late now, however, and she wouold just have to make do. She was good at that at least. She pushed open the door to the shop, and came face to chest with someone (or something) large and solid.
