For this first outfit I channeled Bella's feminine side and choose an embellished blouse, but paired it with relaxed straight jeans, tomboyish sneakers and a very casual sweatshirt. This showed how Bella tries not to draw attention to herself. She would cover up her pretty blouse because she has such low self esteem and would rather blend in. As a character, Bella is very relatable. She is really just an everyday girl, so that's why I choose a pair of average looking, slightly worn sneakers that give a nod to tomboyishness. Stephenie Meyer's use of setting throughout the novel influenced me to add a hat to Bella's look. Bella lives in one of the coldest and rainiest places in the country and a crocheted beanie seemed fitting for Bella for two reasons. For one, it adds warmth in such a cold climate and secondly, it's a little out of place in the outfit. That portrays how Bella is never completely fitting in. She doesn't fit in with the kids at school because they just don't get her, but she doesn't fully fit in with the Cullens because they are vampires and she is just human. This is one of the struggles that Bella faces through the course of the novel.
