It's the battle of the aesthetics! Give four friends academic make-overs. Who will go to the light and who will go to the dark side? Prepare each girl's makeup look, featuring dark, moody eyeshadows and lots of freckles. Then dress each character up in either a light academia or dark academia aesthetic. There are lots of cable-knit sweaters, tweed skirts, nylons, berets and all the other academic staples. Choose short, choppy haircuts or put their hair in braids. Accessorize with leather totes, coffee cups, old-school cameras and more! Place your ladies in a variety of lovely backgrounds, including both light and dark bedrooms.
