This is one of the posts I've been most excited for since I started this blog because for one thing Azula is my all time favourite character and for another she has a wicked sick fashion sense. Azula is the daughter of the fire lord, making her a princess. Anyone who watches the show knows that she's no ordinary princess, she is a fire bending prodigy as well as likely the scariest fourteen year old girl you will ever meet.
After her brothers failed attempt to capture the Avatar and her uncle's very public betrayal of the fire nation, Azula was enlisted by her father to capture them. had her captain not been an imbecile she would have succeeded in her plan to capture her brother. In light of her failure she decided that it may not be best to track her brother with an army but rather a small elite team. While enlisting the help of her friend Mai in the city of Omashu she comes across the avatar and the rest is avatar history.

Unlike Toph and Katara, Azula's style isn't all about comfort and practicality,. Azula's fashion sense is glamorous, a little edgy and sophisticated. Azula is the boss and she speaks that not only through her,"what glass roof?" attitude but her clothing. Azula lives in the constantly warm and tropical fire nation but the reality is that most of us have to deal with this lovely thing called snow(eye roll). I chose the coat because it's beautiful as well as style conscious, after all Azula wouldn't let the weather conquer her wardrobe. The dress I chose is very sophisticated and yet has a "right down to business feel to it. The knee high socks and military boots are trendy and the heels add height and therefore power (Azula is all about the power). The lighting jewelry I thought was a fun allusion to her lightningbending and the fox plays upon her sly, trickster persona. The earrings I thought were very glamorous and the animal print bag and bangles add a dangerous, daring feel to the look.

This is Azula's warm weather outfit. It has a relatively more "casual" feel to it. The skirt Kinda reminded me of her season one skirt ant the overall silhouette is quite similar to her season one outfit. The bracelet invokes the Asain inspired feel of her world and the lion earrings continues the queen of the jungle theme along with her shoes. The necklace reminded me of the warriors of the sun and the bag looks like a Chanel, we all know that Azula would buy designer.

Finally, we come to my favourite part, formal wear! Now anyone who said that Azula was modest was very mistaken, so I thought this curve hugging scarlet number was perfect. The earrings and the bracelet are perfectly glamorous (the look like a bunch of tiny suns). Now although Azula has no problem showing a little skin even a princess can get cold so I paired the ensemble with a gold foil cardigan. The gold and white clutch and red velvet shoes add a pretty level of sophistication, keeping the outfit from going over the top. I topped the whole thing off with a previously shown lightning bolt necklace.
Come on back next time for my piece on Suki style! :)
