A Modified, Fashion Exploring Yvette

So, my Fashion Explorer Vanessa came today - and OF COURSE I had to pay customs on it.  There was actually a postal carrier there who just happened to overhear me bitching about always getting hit with customs, and he pointed out that it's supposed to be random.  What, have I been parcelly profiled or something??

So, I paid my customs and released Fashion Explorer from her paper and ribbon coffin.  I knew that there were things I wanted to adjust on her even before I got her, just seeing other peoples' photos.  The first thing I wanted to change was her eyes, since she looked kind of sleepy/drunk, so I painted the black.  I love really, really black eyes.  I also loosened the forelock that was plastered to her head, to break up some of her high forehead.  I have experience trying to break up a panorama forehead, because that is my life.

Her hair is a gorgeous mink color, and I adore the outfit.  It's got tons of mix and match pieces.  I find the purse a little big and unwieldy, though.  You could smuggle a child in that thing.
