Spring was coming, and that meant a whole new wardrobe. Dorothea had already donated several items she never wore anymore to local theatres or to the charity shops. Sending them to thrift stores seemed like a scam. She entered the boutique and began studying the racks with a steady eye. After finding several dresses, Dorothea looped them on her arm and studied a display of rosy lipstick.

Navia was walking by the shops and just had to check out the boutique not just to buy something cute for spring, but to see what were the new stylish trends. She always loved experimenting with the latest fashions, it was just as fun as doing her inventions. She walked over to the make up area. "Looks like they got some interesting shades." she blurted out as she examined the make up.

Dorothea was testing a rose colored shade of lipstick when the door opened. Strolling in was a teenager with billows of dark blonde curls. A fellow fashionista, it seemed, if the way her posture and styling of her hair was anything to go off of. “So they do.” She turned over the tube at cringed at the price tag. Buying one tube would be the same as three raspberry teas, and she would not pass those up. “I like them, but not for what’s being asked.”

Navia looked over at the price tag and oh boy the brown haired girl wasn't kidding. "Yikes. It does seem a bit too pricy." Navia would have an earful from her grandfather if she spent that much on just lipstick. She looked around and spotted something with a cheaper price tag that looked cute, it was a nice shade. "How about this? It might not be exactly the same, but I think it has your coloring." she smiled faintly looking at the brown haired girl.

The blonde handed Dorothea another tube of lipstick. Picking up a test Q-tip, she gently dabbed in into the tube and smudged it onto her wrist. The color was a brick red, a perfect compliment to her “warm autumn” claim. “Ooh, well I like…” she dabbed a bit in her lips and checked her reflection in her compact mirror. “No, wait. I love it!” She gave the blonde a grateful smile. “Good find. I was needing a new color so bad.” Not to mention her girlfriends Zelda and Bella, love them to pieces, but they would be confused by the world of makeup and styling.

Navia was delighted that the girl like the lipstick and the color really did look great with her complexion. "So glad you do." she remarked back with a smile. "It looks really good on you." That it did. Navia really enjoyed doing these type of things. She had always loved fashion, to her it was magical, to say the least.

Dorothea stepped away from the makeup and studied the jewelry display nearby. The pieces ranged from something she would never wear again after one night or a design that did not fit her posh style. It seemed the blonde and her had similar tastes. She picked up a dainty chain bedazzled with small brass stars, inlaid with tiny rhinestones. “From one fashion lover to another,” she offered it to the blonde. “This would look stunning with your hair color. Is that natural?”

Navia glanced over at the chain that the girl was showing her. She noticed the little stars and rhinestones, it actually matched her to a t. "I love it!" she couldn't hide it. It was exactly what she was looking for. She gave a little giggle when Dorothea asked her about her. "Oh my, yep it's natural. Yours?"

"Same," She smoothed the ends of her brown hair. The rose water she sprayed in to keep the moisture locked in place was still there. According to her mom, she had gotten the hair color from her father. "Spring is a tough season for me to find stuff for. I just got rid of all the things that I didn't need."

Navia could relate to that feeling as well, but for her at times to match things to her seasonal palette. "It does seem that way." she agreed and gave a faint smile she gave a faint smile. Remember that for a second that one of the reason why she loved fashion in the first place was there were always some wonderful finds, regardless of the seasons if you're willing to look. "Yet at least it's fun." she shrugged.

Dorothea giggled agreeably. Shopping was something that was fun. Nothing some good old retail therapy couldn’t solve. When her mom wasn’t busy with acting or on a tour, she would find time to go shopping with her. “Are there any styles that you find yourself drawn to? I’m certainly in the posh field,” she held up a puff sleeved dress in a soft shade of pink.

Navia gave a smile. "OMG that would be so cute on you. Yeah I can totally see why you love that style so much." he smile got brighter when she saw a pretty classy black coat dress. "For me I like classy and vintage. I love lolita too in a way. Honestly I just love fashion, it always seems to just brighten up my day."

Lolita was very similar to boho, in which what people considered to be in that box was personalized. Dorothea looked over to the coat dress Navia was gesturing to. The silhouette would look lovely on her. There was just one thing she wasn’t fond of. “The shape looks absolutely lovely on you. Now while black sophisticated, but with your color, it simply looks like a funeral dress.” Or a coat worn by a secret agent. All that was missing was the suitcase full of government secrets.

Navia blushed a bit and put her hand to the back of her head, guess that she got too used to the secret agent life that it pretty much. "Guess you're right?" She looked around. "Maybe you could suggest something?" she asked maybe that would be for the best, she almost blew her cover even if it was a joke.

Dorothea scanned the racks for something that would suit Navia. Unfortunately for her, the Lolita fashions would make the blonde next to her look much younger. But then she found a corset top made of a tan floral fabric with sleeves of a soft cream poly blend. Stylish enough to not be mistaken for anything else, but also fitting Navia’s preference for a more classical look.
