JOSÉPHINE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE APPROPRIATE OUTFIT was for a teen party because, in all honesty, she had never been to one. She had to been to parties with teens at them, but those were usually dinner parties where everyone was too snobby to interact with each other.
With her few weeks at Hogwarts, she was able to distinguish the attitude differences of the houses. Ravenclaw were the 'head in the clouds', solitude kind of people. Hufflepuff were the 'be everybody's best friend' people, ones who threw slumber parties, invited everyone and anyone, and danced in their PJs all night. Gryffindor was, proudly, the 'party house.' According to Marlene, their parties were legendary and almost always held in the room of requirements.
Apparently nobody was invited, it was just always known when a party thrown by a Gryffindor was on, and everyone would randomly show up. Free alcohol and a lot of experimenting with other substance.
Slytherins however, were notoriously picky. Joséphine didn't need Marlene's party advice or the few weeks she had been at Hogwarts to figure that out. With their airy 'too good for you' personality, that seemed to be a trait you had to possess in order to even get in to Slytherin, they always had low key parties that only a select few were invited to.
This cause Joséphine's stomach to flip as she browsed her extensive clothing options. She had always had too many clothes but never the heart to throw them out.
Her clothes were also very... different to how people in the UK dressed. Where Joséphine was raised, it was all about cocktail dresses and thin blouses. The girlier you looked, the better your fashion sense and social standing.
From the last weekend she spent here, where a fifth year wore a cropped vest and see through maxi skirt, Joséphine knew she was definitely out of her element.
"Hey Joséphine!" Dorcas Meadows, one of the other girls Joséphine shared a dormitory with spoke.
Dorcas was a beautiful dark skinned girl with a bouncy Afro and an ever present smile. When Joséphine first met her, she was immediately awed by her high cheekbones and dark eyes that looked at you like you were hiding a secret and she knew exactly what it was. Dorcas always had a smile on her face, making her very popular and was close friends with Lily, Alice and Marlene, having known each other since third year.
When Joséphine had asked where Dorcas was most of the time, Marlene made a sly comment about how Dorcas fell off the face of the earth when she got a girlfriend, which happened a lot.
Dorcas loved love so much, she found herself falling into it a little too much. Notorious for the many people she dated, she was known as a heartbreaker around Hogwarts.
"It's hard not to fall in love so much, when there is so many wonderful people out there." She had defended herself when Marlene teased her by calling her Aphrodite, the goddess of love.
