Angela (played by Elodie Grace Orkin) is a minor antagonist in the fourth season of Stranger Things.  A bully who picks on “Jane” at her new school in California, Angela has all the hallmarks of a stereotypical mean girl; pretty, popular, and cruel.  There are two costumes you could choose to recreate for her–the pink outfit she wears at school or the one she wears to the roller rink.  The first consists of a bleached denim skirt, pink and white striped blouse, pink beaded earrings and necklace, as well as scrunched-up white socks and white keds.  At the rink, she wears a teal bodysuit with pink shimmery shorts, multicolor star earrings, and a set of holographic bracelets.  You can use a blouse instead of a bodysuit, but may want to pin the hem to the inside of your shorts to make it look more fitted.  If you want to go as Angela after Jane takes her revenge with a roller skate, don’t forget a little blood gel to complete the look.

Glinda (formerly Galinda) is one of the main characters in the musical Wicked, which tells the backstory of Elphaba, better known as the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz.  Glinda begins her journey at Shiz University, where she is accidentally assigned as Elphaba’s roommate.  Despite the rocky start to their relationship, the two eventually become friends, though not every fairy tale in this case gets a happy ending.  While there are certainly more well-known costumes for Glinda in other media, the costume she wears when she arrives at Shiz is a classic white outfit with nods to vintage styles including oxford pumps and a white beret.
