J.K. Rowling wore friggin’ Golden Snitch shoes and it was pure magic

If you’ve finally recovered from your marathon reading of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, then you’re probably ready to take on a little more ~magic~, right? At least, magic of another form. While the world went bonkers over the release of the latest addition to the Potter-verse, the queen herself, J.K. Rowling attended a press preview of Cursed Child in London on the eve of her (and Harry Potter’s) birthday.

And because she’s not just a genius when it comes to creating magic on a page, but also on the red carpet, Rowling showed up wearing perhaps the greatest things to don human feet ever…

GOLDEN. SNITCH. SHOES.

And here’s a closer look to fully blow your mind.

You…RIGHT NOW.

So insanely jealous of these lucky souls who got to get this close to perfection!

One more close-up for good measure…

MAGIC.
