In Archie Comics, Archibald “Archie” Andrews is a typical small-town teen who attends Riverdale High School. He has a dog named Spotty, a best friend named Jughead Jones, and crushes in Veronica Lodge and Betty Cooper, tangling him in a love triangle.

The childhood friend of Archie Andrews (KJ Apa), Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart) is your classic girl-next-store with her good grades, cheerleader status, and her being the editor of her high school’s yearbook. In the time after the mysterious death of a classmate, Betty became the best friend of new girl Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes), and began dating Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse). She wears a lot of classic silhouettes in pastel colors like baby pink or blue.

Josie McCoy (Ashleigh Murray) is the lead singer in Riverdale’s own Josie and the Pussycats, and an ambitious musician in her own right. After the Pussycats won Rockland County’s Battle of the Bands, Josie decided to take music even more seriously and create a signature look for the band – hence the iconic cat ears and leopard print.

In Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Sabrina Spellman (Kiernan Shipka) is teenager attending Baxter High. As a half human and half witch, she tries to maintain a balance between her dark education and a normal teenage life. She’s often accompanied by Salem Saberhagen, a former witch sentenced to spend an indefinite amount of time as a black cat.

Riverdale’s new girl, Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes), is a self-professed recovering mean girl. After she and her mother moved from New York, Veronica quickly befriended Archie (KJ Apa) and Betty (Lili Reinhart), and shortly also joined the high school’s cheerleading team and Josie McCoy’s (Ashleigh Murray) band, Josie and the Pussycats. Veronica can usually be seen wearing some form of a pearl necklace as her signature piece.
