Viridian
RLViridian on Viridian:
I figure she pretty much looks like me, except for her FASHION SENSE!!!! What she wears and what I wear are two different things! soooooo..... She's 5'6'' with short, straight brown hair, freckles and green eyes. She's kinda slender and wouldn't go near anything resembling nail polish.
Clothing choice would be where we part company. I think of her fashion sense as somewhere between Mrs. Howe of "Gilligan's Island and a drag queen. Pink is her color. (Barbie can stuff it with her "pink" thing; Viridian and I are older than her and we were here first!) She will wear other colors, but all the different values of pink are her favorites. For painting there is, of course, the World Famous Hot Pink Smock with the one zillion pockets. Under that would be a nice neat shirt and some capri pants with either white or pink Keds. Very Jackie Kennedy. Viridian never gets paint on herself or her clothes, unlike her messy alter ego.
Oh Lordy, you had to ask-- now I am warming up to this...
For gardening, there are pink overalls and a large straw sun hat. For nightime, fuzzy slippers, bizzare pjs and chenille bathrobes would be her choice. Nothing too risque, unless The Big Guy were around, but we won't go there.
Just about everything else would be formal wear. Tiaras are a necessity, as are prom dresses with sequins and yards of tulle. Anything the average woman wouldn't be caught dead in would be something Viridian would go for. At times, she will don a wig, like the purple beehive one I actually have. ( For Halloween!!!!) One can cook very nicely with a large apron draped over one's ballgown.
You realize of course, that this is all a reaction to her years of slavery to Lochinar; ( Something Magic This Way Comes) freezing and starving in a rough burlap shift is enough to make any girl turn into Ivana Trump. It will take years of therapy and much transcendental meditation for her to fully recover from her ordeal, poor thing.
One final thing: she is insanely fond of chocolate. Hope this helps!
