[The new Fashion Club has been a success, and it feels more like a fashion club than the old one. Back home she and the girls were all talk, but here they're actually doing something to help those in need. This is the sort of thing Quinn always wished she could do without looking like a tryhard geek in front of the girls, or suggest without Sandi shouting her down.

She's at the store right now, looking at various makeup shades and hair colors. Considering a little change...not a complete dye job, but some highlights. Maybe a subtle copper or gold shade to bring out its natural beauty.

Plus, she needs some new mascara. Her old one's officially three months old and almost empty anyway.]

Now, should I buy my usual black or go for a more natural-looking brown? Or perhaps midnight blue...

It seems like the best way to avoid an awkward wardrobe malfunction...especially if it's a bit windy outside.

[Not to mention, she'll be well prepared if someone decides to start a water fight outside.]

[cuteisawayoflife]

Great! You know, I think I'll wear something similar. Not to copy or anything, of course.

[fashionably_strong]

As long as our dresses are different, I don't consider it copying. If there's someone going around looking under skirt, we've got bigger problems than being seen as copying each other. Luckily, that's the perfect problem for Dad to take care of.

[Which he would, with extreme prejudice against the offender. He's a bit of a prude anyway, but when something like that is directed toward his wife or daughter...well.]

[cuteisawayoflife]

Oh, of course. There are probably patterns and cuts that look way better on you than on me anyway.

[fashionably_strong]

And vice versa, of course. Different body types best fit different things.

[Being short, Bulla really can't pull of styles that are best suited for an average to tall girl, for example.]

You'd pull off those high waisted pants that look great on some girls, but really stupid on others. I'd be in the "looks really stupid on" category.

I've tried those, they're not too bad! But finding a good top to go with them isn't always easy.

[fashionably_strong]

Yeah, you usually need a shirt that drapes kind of loosely but that isn't casual. Like those sheer button down shirts...except then you have to make sure that the cami you wear underneath works with the pants, too.

[Proof that fashion takes more thought than some people think it does, in Bulla's opinion.]

[cuteisawayoflife]

Yeah, it can't show too much midriff or come down too far over the waistline.

[It really does. It's not as frivolous and easy as its reputation suggests.]
