None of the Cullens attended school when it was sunny because they were afraid of being caught sparkling. They always ditched. It's in the book.Wingtear wrote: still considering:
the meadow, what's with ditching school to go sparkle? Not Edwards style really....
As for Bella's converse shoe, I was surprised to see it in the movie because it isn't what she wore in the book; however, after I thought about it, it makes sense. The converse shoe fits Bella's character better. Also, I know it goes against the book, but to have Bella all glammed up makes me think of the craptastic movie, She's All That. Furthermore, Bella disliked wearing dresses; perhaps she didn't like having her legs exposed (*shrugs*), and maybe that's why she wore leggings. Did you also notice she didn't wear a skirt or a blue sweater to meet the Cullens?
