Keys to Character:
- Voice - Calm, unhurried, low pitched
- Body and Adornment - Everything must dazzle, but also be harmonious. Clothing more often suggests sexuality than screams it. Reveal only one part of the body.
- Movement and Demeanor - Graceful, suggestive, langorous.

Symbol:

ReplyDeleteThe Siren is one of my favorites..closely followed by "The Ideal" which is coming up later this week ;-)
DeleteOh my gosh, I love this.
ReplyDeleteTell me, have you ever read 'The Bombshell Manual of Style' by Lauren Stover? I think you would love it.
I have (and I DID love it!) She also wrote The Bohemian Manifesto, which I own as well. Great books!
