    Double Take - Carolyn Keene

    CHAPTER ONE

    Fashion Show and Tell

    Check out my new jeans, Deirdre Shannon said. She stood up and twirled around like a fashion model.

    Nancy Drew glanced at Deirdre’s jeans. The paint flecks were a mixture of white and pale pink and baby blue.

    Did you spill paint on them in art class? Bess Marvin asked Deirdre curiously.

    Deirdre rolled her eyes. "Uh, no. They came this way. And they’re way more expensive than jeans that aren’t splattered with paint. She pointed to the ones Nancy was wearing. You know—like those?"

    Nancy tried to hide her smile. Typical Deirdre! She always liked to brag that she had the best or the fanciest stuff.

    Nancy and Bess were eating lunch in the school cafeteria with George Fayne. Deirdre was at the next table, along with Madison Foley and Kendra Jackson. The air was filled with the yummy smells of today’s specials: chili, chicken nuggets, and Tater Tots.

    I guess I could just spill some paint on my jeans, George piped up as she nibbled on a chicken nugget. Then everyone would think I had super-cool jeans like yours, Deirdre.

    "Ha ha, Georgia," Deirdre said, using George’s full name. George made a face at Deirdre. She didn’t like being called Georgia.

    Nancy, George, and Bess were best friends. George and Bess were also cousins, although it wasn’t always easy for people to tell. George had brown hair and brown eyes, while Bess had blond hair and blue eyes. George was into sports, while Bess loved fashion.

    Well, you’re not the only one with new clothes, Deirdre, Bess said. She leaned back in her chair and kicked up her feet. Check out my new boots!

    Cool red boots, Madison remarked as she popped a Tater Tot into her mouth. Deirdre glared at Madison. I mean…they’re okay…I guess, Madison revised quickly.

    Actually, they’re magenta, Bess corrected Madison. Magenta is like red mixed with purple.

    And speaking of purple…check out my new headband, Nancy said, touching her hair. I got it at the mall last weekend.

    Headbands are so last week, Deirdre said. Right, Kendra?

    Huh? Kendra said, looking startled. Uh, right, Deirdre. Whatever you say.

    Just then, Nadine Nardo walked up to the girls, carrying a tray. Are you guys talking about clothes? she said excitedly. Because guess what? You’ll never believe it!

    What is it, Nadine? Deirdre said. She faked a yawn.

    Nadine set her tray down on Nancy’s table. I took it off before lunch period because I didn’t want to spill anything on it, she explained. She pulled something out of her backpack and slipped it on. Ta-da! she cried out. She threw her arms out wide and blew air kisses, like a celebrity.

    Nadine was wearing a brand-new pink hoodie. But it wasn’t just a regular hoodie. There was a special heart design on the back of it, made of silver sequins. In the center of the heart were some words, also in silver. It looked like someone’s autograph.

    Nancy squinted. The name was Lila…or Lola…

    Bess gasped. Oh my gosh! Is that the new Lula Rappaport hoodie, Nadine?

    Nadine beamed proudly. Isn’t it awesome?

    You mean Lula Rappaport, the actress? Madison gushed. "I read an article in Teen Style magazine that she just started designing clothes. I can’t believe you have one of her hoodies, Nadine."

    Deirdre glared at Madison again. Madison turned bright red.

    Where did you even buy that, Nadine? Kendra asked her. Aren’t those hoodies really hard to get?

    My aunt Chloe got it for me for my birthday,
