15 Summery Pieces of Harry Potter Apparel

by Amy Sachs

Now that the summer heat is here to officially stay, it's time to break out your summer wardrobe. The light sweaters of spring are long gone; it's officially too hot for anything than tank tops and the occasional tee-shirt. I know what you're thinking. All the amazing, bookish clothing is for the winter. Hoodies, sweaters, even ugly Christmas sweaters: all for winter. Fear not, bookworms. I thought the same thing, and was pleasantly surprised to find out that there are plenty of bookish accessories and even Harry Potter clothing to get us through the summer months.

The Harry Potter stuff is especially important. I mean, there's no better time to re-read the series than the summer. You should be able to express yourself while you read! Bookish clothing is the perfect way to show your House pride, favorite quotes, or even your favorite book (all of them, HELLO). So, while you read through the series for the millionth time, experience it for the first time ever (there are so many jealous bookworms out there if that's the case!), or just want to show that you'll always love the series, here are 15 summery pieces of Harry Potter clothing that every book nerd needs this season.
