4 days to The Next Together: Fashion, baby!

Posted byWren JamesPosted inextras, the next together

To celebrate the release of my first book, I’m posting a new “Behind the Scenes” exclusive about The Next Together daily until September 3rd. You can find them all here, including Chapter One from Matt’s Point of View, a Harry Potter crossover,  A scene from start to finish, a playlist and the book as different genres. 

If you preorder The Next Together before September 3rd you can get a free signed bookmark! Details here. The last person to email me with their preorder information before midnight GMT on September 2nd will receive an extra special gift with their bookmark!

Today I’m sharing some FASHION. These are the clothes that Kate and Matt wear in all of their many different lives. I made these using Polyvore, which is a very fun website which will suck away all of your time. Would recommend, 10/10.

First, the 2039 versions from the recent future (recent as in: these are basically just modern clothes) both Kate and Matt are university students. Their clothing choices definitely reflect this.

Then we get the fun, historical get-ups! In 1854, Matthew is a fancypants journalist and Katy is in disguise as a boy.

I want to dress exactly like 1854!Matthew, please.

In 1745, Matthew is a coachman and Katherine is a noble lady. They look like this:

I see that Batman-esque sneaky cape, Katherine. I see it.

If you have any suggestions for clothing for Kate and Matt, please show me because I am now OBSESSED.
