"The Coton de Tuléar is a breed of small dog named for the city of Tuléar in Madagascar. This breed is thought to have originated from a group of small white dogs that swam across the Malagasy channel following a shipwreck. It was a companion dog of the Merina in Madagascar and has a very little prey drive and is not a hunting dog. "

Hero Form Appearance: A combination of a fashion forward Parisian’s outfit and YuYuYu’s hero form outfits. The undersuit of the outfit is a jet black so the lighter colors can stand out fully- the main outfit is a gorgeous icy pink, like the Madagascar periwinkle through and through. However, accent colors of cream, gold, silver, black, white, gray, and magenta pink all help balance out the scales. The boots, belt, and gloves all have patterns of Madagascar periwinkle flowers on them, and the only other accessory is a hair tie that looks like a Madagascar periwinkle’s outer ring of petals that holds up Karla’s hair, alongside a pair of earrings that look like the flowers + a tie clasp that looks exactly like the blossom. The flower’s petal shape can be seen in the tailcoat and collar.

Bio: What's black, white, and pink all over? Karla Choupette of course! Born and raised in Paris — Karla’s the epitome of French chic. From classic patterns to tailored silhouettes, every detail is extremely refined and polished. And while her personal style tends to be black and white, her designs are anything but. In fact, she doesn't believe in following gender norms and finds a lot of her inspo in menswear fashion magazines. She believes it's not what you wear, but how you wear it.
Here are all the rescued plants transplanted into slightly bigger pots! Thank you to everyone who responded about the name of the pink flowered plant, I do think it’s Madagascar Periwinkle, and from what I’ve seen online it can grow into a huge big plant! All of the plants needed pruning, and had very tightly-grown root system, they’ve been in tiny pots for too long, I hope they recover.
I also found this houseleek someone threw off of their balcony?? It was on the street?? It had a lot of dry leaves, so presumably the person thought it was drying off and dying and just threw it away. But the plant was just struggling with heat and had to let some of the leaves go, she was perfectly alive, and I’ll make sure it stays that way.
Finally having more houseplants! It makes me happy to have some that are always in flower. Isn’t that a bright future? There will always be flowers in my home.
