Silly geek fact of the week: Harry Potter books were translated from the 'Queen's English' to American English. Apparently, the publishers were worried American kids wouldn't know a bin from a jumper, so they translated words and concepts for the US consumer.

  1. I've been wanting a vest for forever and now I want one even more! $5? Score! You look great!

  2. I really like the outfits you put together. You always add a touch of color...I'm trying to do that with my wardrobe but it's not working. I always gravitate toward black.

  4. I really like both outfits - the vest especially. You paired the black and pinstripe perfectly.

    Also, I remember when I picked up my ex-boyfriend (he's English) Harry Potter's to re-read and was soooo surprised. Sometimes it's quite different! You don't realize how many expressions are like that between the two countries until you see it in print, I think.

  5. Marianna - Oh! I think it will look fab on you!

    Corie - I think you do color really well! I do have to admit about 1/4 of my closet is black, and I have to really focus to not buy everything I like in the black option LOL.

    Kelly - thanks!! :-)

    Amanda - Thanks! That's cool that you got to check it out in its "native" language. :-) I was considering ordering one from Amazon UK just because hehe.

  6. I love the blue, black and grey. The detailing at the collar is so pretty.

    The color of the tee looks sharp with the grey pants. I love the vest! I just got a black vest on clearance last month too, from H&M.

    They even changed the title of the first book! Philosopher doesn't have exactly the same meaning in the U.S. and apparently isn't as exciting or magical as Sorcerer.
