Toph

My next post is about a charactor very close to my heart, Toph. Its not like I am really anything like her personality wise, but I too have a disability. While she's blinde I have a learning disablity, so i know how tough it can be. at the same way I know how it can teach you to veiw the world differantly and use you gifts to suceed in your own unique way.
Toph is an earthbender born to the weathy Bei Fong familly. She was born with blindness and because of this she was over protected and hidden from the world. When Toph was young she ran away from hom to escape the overwhelming opression of her parents. She ran into a cave and met creatures named badger moles. Badgermoles are the blind, original earthbenders . Toph studdied them and developed her own unique style of earthbending and learned how to feel the earth and vibrations around her to "see" her surroundings. When she perfected her abilities she entered an earth bending tournament under the name, "the blind bandit".  She was the champion untill one day she competed against a strange boy who was "light on his feet and the rest is avatar history.


Outfit 1:

                                                                           

Toph's style is in a word, undone. Although she cleans up well, by choice she would never wear anything feminine. Her look is funky and sporty. She is definitely a graphic tee shirt kinda girl. She hates shoes and loves earthy colours and boxy cuts. this first outfit is very Toph. the over all look silhouette is similar to Tophs outfit  and the cool earphones remind me of her hair pom poms(but if you do wear them be sure to have your music device to plug them into. Toph isn't a purse person so the Mario back back is a cool anti-girly approach to toting your stuff abroad.

outfit 2:                                                                                                                                                    

This is a winter Toph outfit.the jeans were chosen for their comfort factor and general bagginess. The layered tank, shirt and tee is very Toph with the earthy colours and boxy anti-feminine shapes. Also the silhouette is similar to Toph's actual outfit. The scarf and hat are also funky and undone. Although Toph isn't a shoe person, I'm sure that if she had to she would choose these masculine boots.

          Outfit 3                                                                                                                            

  

And finally, Toph Formal wear! A chose this dress because of the fantastic shade of green as well as the boxy shape of the top half which reminds me of the shape of Toph's outfit and her dress in Ba sing sei. I chose the sweater to pair over it (should be worn unbuttoned) in case of chilly weather. The lightning bolt necklace keeps the outfit fun and the golden nugget is an homage to her earthbending. The simple clutch and sandal boots complete the outfit.

katara

Since Katara is the main female character I decided to start with a post on her.

Katara was born in the southern water tribe (situated on the south pole) and lived with her family there in relative peace until her mother was killed during a fire nation raid for being a water bender. However Katara's mother was not the water bender, it was Katara herself whom the fire nation was after.

Following this event her  father, the chief, went to the earth kingdom to aid in the war against the fire nation leaving her and her big brother Sokka behind.

On day while fishing with her brother, the two discover a giant sphere of ice with *gasp* a person inside it! She and her brother rescue the frozen boy and the rest is avatar history. 

Outfit 1:

Katara's sense of style is girly and sporty and super practical. she prefers to wear clothes that don't reveal too much skin and she is a huge fan of layers and cool colours. Although her everyday wear is casual, she does love to occasionally dress up. She loves necklaces and her style in jewelry is tribal and nostalgic.

This first outfit is sooo Katara. the coat (from Mod cloth) looks warm and comfy. the "fur" collar is reminiscent of Katara's fur lined coat in the show. the skinny jeans in the next picture are actually jeggings and are a much more practical approach to skinny jeans (from forever 21) and the silhouette of the skinny jeans are similar to her leggings in season one. The tank (from forever 21), tee shirt (from mod cloth) and the nautical cardigan are cute practical and feminine.

Outfit 2:

this second outfit is similar in silhouette to Katara's season 2 outfit. The bag is what I would call the quintessential Katara bag.(from Aldo) Due to its versatile and practical nature this would likely be Katara's go to bag for most occasions and outfits. Where outfit one is more of a Winter look, outfit two is more of a spring ensemble.

Outfit 3:

This is how Katara would likely do formal wear. The Navy tiered dress is kept modest with a flowy cardigan. the outfit is paired with a funky tribal clutch simple black heals and beautiful silver jewlery.

Thank you for reading my first post on katara and come back for my next post on Toph! :)
