Makeover For the Undead
Jane Doe, Before ... well, after life but before the makeover.
Jane Doe came to me with a problem: her afterlife wasn't all she wanted it to be. She just wasn't getting the attention she wanted from others in the Differently Alive community. Was it her breath? No, darling, although it is pretty vile, it's not much different from any other zombie. It's your style - or lack of it, for that matter. Just look at this poor thing! That dress. Those shoes. And that hair! It was obvious Jane needed the sort of help that only I, as the virtual world's only fashion maven for the undead, could provide. First of all, that dress had to go. All of this, by the way, was free.
Jane liked this dress, but if she wanted real pizzaz in her afterlife, she needed something that made a statement.
I chose for her this fabulous vintage freebie from Fandango, a 70s disco dress with go-go boots. This freebie is a bargain beyond pareil. It comes in many colors and a variation with pants with frills as well as disco jewelry. Boy, it takes me back to when I was alive in the 70s! This outfit is so retro-chic, it almost makes her hair look good - but we still have to do something about that.
To go with the disco outfit I chose a vintage 'do from Vignette, where the hair, vintage and otherwise, is free. Can you say, "Fabboo!"? Next we need some sexier skin. We tried a couple before we came up with the gnarly Halloween skin from Skullfuct:
It's just a shame that it doesn't come with a cleavage option. I should have a word with the artist at Skullfuct about that (not that poor Jane has any cleavage at this point - which is a caution to us to not give up on supportive foundations just because we're dead).
The only things remaining were minor finishing touches, a manicure and some eyelashes from MADesigns.
Now, look at the difference (just scroll up and look)!
In a matter of minutes, with just a few changes, we have gone from dull to darling! Who would not be proud to stalk the discos of the virtual world with this living, erm, sort-of-living doll? We have put glamor and style back into her, for lack of a better word, life!
