So you want to dress like Lily Collins as Clary Fray?
Everybody wants to be a Shadowhunter right? The first step to being a Shadowhunter is looking better in black as Cassandra Clare stated in her popular book series, The Mortal Instruments. But what if you don’t want to wear just any black attire? What if you want to look just like Clary Fray, played by Lily Collins, in The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones movie set to be released August 23, 2013? We have the scoop!
Let’s start with the first official still released from the movie. Clary is wearing a Karen Millen Black Jacket. This is a very pricey purchase but, if you sign up for the email list, you get 15% off and, if you wait, you may even get an email coupon for 25% off! Making this $630 jacket only $472. She also wears Michael Kor Rock n Roll Booties which, unfortunately, are only available with the gold hardware (originally $325, now $146). But, remember, eBay is your friend! So it’s up to you, is looking better in black worth the cost?
BUY Michael Kor Rock n Roll Booties
For Clary’s running look, you don’t have to have quite as much disposable income. Although, this is a Hollywood look, so it’s still going to cost you. Her tee shirt is the ‘Insta BK W – Graphic Tee Shirt’ by Brooklyn Industries for only $40. Her jeans are ‘Diesel MyGuy 0800’ and will run you $262. Lastly, her sturdy running shoes are Dr. Marten 1460’s. The price for these vary depending on your shoe size and where you get them from.

Perhaps you prefer Clary’s coffee shop look? Here she is seen wearing a Club Monaco ‘Elsa Tee’. These are no longer available online, but you can still snag one, on sale, if you call the store. They’ll even ship it for you! It’s super comfy and looks great with a pair of jeans. Prices range, but I got mine for $30.
Lastly, we have Clary’s sunny day outfit. These shorts, made by 7 for All Mankind, are available for $56.99 on 6pm.com. They are surprisingly comfortable and well made. The shoes, made by Vans, are ‘Lo-Pro Slip On’s’ in Black/Guate are also available on 6pm.com for only $31.99!

Holy cats, that’s one expensive leather jacket! That’s half a months rent for me. Lol! I do love Clary’s shadowhunter look. It’s sexy and tough.
That jacket actually is just the amount of my rent, lol. I could never afford it. But there are loads of leather jackets out there with a similar to even identical look. Same with the boots. But it’s cool to know what she’s wearing there 🙂
What should i do if i dont have a leather jacket and i dont want to buy one? What acsessories should i wear? What if i do dye my hair red but my hair isint as long as hers?
yehey! cheap! i thought she wore gucci!… doesn’t matter anyway, gucci is too fashionable to be called expensive!!!
what about her hair color?! what is it, what color? u can’t be that exact color of hair natural!!!
Yes, hair color!
Yes Please! Can you tell us her hair color?!
What brand is the green sweater from Clary’s sunny day outfit? I’ve looked everywhere online but can’t seem to find it.
Her sweater was custom dyed to be that color, you won’t find it.
Thanks Cassie! I’ve read about it being dyed but was trying to find out what the brand was to see if they had similar styles.
