Brushing her bangs away from her eyes, Mia examined the outfit for a few more moments before declaring, “Yeah, no, no. That dress is going to the no way in hell pile. And don’t try to argue with me on this, I refuse to sell you this dress. I can’t have anyone knowing I let you walk out of my store wearing that.” usually, she is a lot more professional and her opinions are a lot more well formed, but she doesn’t feel like she needs to present a well formed argument to Penny.
“How about this one?” she asked raising a gold dress. “You looked gorgeous in this one. Or even that lilac one you tried on first. It looked really good against your skin.”
here are my new muses. there are eight? yeah, i am pretty sure it’s eight. umm?? i have no control over my mind and i love these charas.

A noise startled Grace out of her trance. Immediately, her blue eyes are drawn to where she had last seen her dogs, two of them are playing in the grass and the other one is still resting on her lap. Breathing a sigh of relief, she looks around trying to find the source of the sound.
“Laurel.” a smile blossoms in her features when she recognizes her friend, “How are you?” noticing that her dog is currently occupying half of the bench, Grace scoots closer to the corner. “Would you like to sit?”
“You wanna take me to a what?” Grace exclaimed raising both eyebrows, her lips curling into a displeased line. “No. Cece, that sounds like a terrible idea.” before the other woman had the chance to get one word in, she continued, “Well, I did ask you to take me to somewhere I had never gone before, and that certainly fits the bill.” fiddling with the rings on her hand, the brunette slouched on her chair before saying, “I’ll right. What should I wear?”
“Louisa!” dodging students and teachers, the redhead ran to her classmate, holding her laptop tightly to her chest. “Louisa! Hi!” Amelia said when she finally caught up to her, taking a second to regain her breath before she began speaking again. “My alarm clock decided it didn’t want to work this morning. Please tell me you took notes of today’s class.”

grace could use a long vacation from her life.
honestly, everyone in her life is trash. her dad? trash. the guy never cared about her and every money she made he stole. she only became independent of him three years ago when she broke all ties with her family. which was not easy. her whole life her dad and elder sisters drilled into her the importance of family but they never cared about their family members, just the family status.
which by the way is terrible right now. the whitfords used to have money but they are now broke. her sister’s modeling career failed. her other sister already has three failed marriage.
honestly, grace is a tired virgin. also she cannot drive.
sexuality: pansexual.

she is brazilian and she won’t let you forget it. she doesn’t even have an accent because she has been living in england for the past 10 years and her dad was british, but if she can mention she is brazilian into a conversation... she is going to.
