TnA Tuesday: Autumn Beauty
🕑 Added 2017-09-17 09:48:52 +0000 UTC Sorry again about the delay, had some major muscle pains happening, which affected my sleep which in turn made it really hard to focus on making art, especially with that one day of light sensitivity. I need to dive straight into my next pin-up and it's been amusing me ever since it was suggested to me. You guys are going to get a kick out of it! But before I skitter off to do that, I'd like to introduce everyone to this week's pin-up beauty; inspired by the cool weather that was happening when I started (and then abruptly stopped the other day and promises to stay fairly warm for the rest of the month, whoops).
I recently learned the best time to see Red Pandas being playful and active at Zoos is in the cooler months, like late Autumn and Winter.
So here we see Ms. Louella Chand - Lou or Lulu to her friends - quite unafraid of the dropping seasonal temperatures, out on a stroll, admiring the colours of Fall in her private backyard.
Louella has always loved autumn; perhaps because of the happy tales her parents love to repeat of her birth, on an unusually warm and dry autumn day, and how they loved her even more when she was finally in their arms; or perhaps due to the subsequent lavish birthday parties her parents would throw for her every year, celebrating the turn of the season and a reminder of the day their wonderful daughter came into their lives, with lots of friends and relatives. Perhaps it's because it means winter is nearing, and that means snow, hot cocoa, long colourful scarves and hats with puff-balls on top. She would hesitate to say she loves winter, but only because of the icy puddles that can ruin her nature walks on less snowy days.
Though from a moderately wealthy household, Louella has always prided herself on making her own money, starting at a young age where she, aged 5, wandered around her cul de sac attempting to sell “forever flowers”, which was basically fistfuls of daisies taped to twigs. She made $3 and was eventually walked home by a concerned neighbour. Her parents were concerned and startled that she had snuck out of the house like that, and took away her TV privileges for a week. She was honestly only upset about the whole situation, when the next day, she realised her leftover forever flowers were wilting, the fairy-themed tape she had used had failed to instill any fairy magic. She was beside herself with distress, sniffling and sobbing, wanting to give a refund but couldn't remember which house had bought one. Eventually her parents managed to calm her down and assure her that she wasn't a bad salesperson, and that the person who bought it probably bought it knowing full well it might wilt.
After that she made sure to clear her business ideas with her parents so they could give her marketing advice and tips. That summer she made a $80 profit selling lemonade & brownies. Then she wanted to 'save it like a grown up' so her bemused parents took her to a bank to 'set up' a bank account for her (she technically already had one, but she wouldn't know until she was 13). She was a little disappointed to find out she wasn't allowed to have a credit card yet.
Her school years went well, she was neither the most popular, nor was she an outcast; friends came and went as they grew and changed, sometimes reconnecting, sometimes not, until graduation finally came around and she tearfully hugged her closest friends, uncertain if they would stay in touch once they began college. A few drifted further away, but remained politely in touch, but others remained constant companions; hardly a day going by without contact of some kind.
Originally planning on Majoring in Business, to either one day start her own or possibly take over her family's, she quickly became involved in animal rights, welfare rights and conservation groups. Around this time she also embraced naturism and continues to relish the chance to discard her clothes and experience the essence of nature, unhindered, either alone or with like-minded folk.
She has since become a spokesperson, public figure and softcore pinup model; she encourages her fans to donate to charities that she both unofficially and officially endorses. In particular, the “Squeeze for Trees” campaign focuses on purchasing and planting new trees in areas that need them; 100% of the money any of her fans spend on her private corset-themed photos go directly towards it, and if they reach the goal amount of $50k by the end of the month, she'll make and release a special photoset of her having a romantic evening with another lovely lady. (Louella herself is demisexual, but has had enough experience and coaching to know how to look compelling on camera).
When she takes breaks from modeling, she can be found volunteering at shelters (both animal and people), attending charity events, and fighting for more space for community gardens and centers in poorer parts of the city, as well as the funding and construction of more homeless/escape shelters.
The jewelry shown here is all significant to her;
-The bracelets on her left wrist are from her parents, given to her on her 15th birthday, the pendant belonged to her great, great grandmother, a Baroness, whom she is named after – though the original chain is lost to the ages.
-The wider band on her right wist was a graduation present from her maternal grandmother – the interior is inscribed with her favourite words of encouragement, “Seek love, and give it if you find it to be sparse.” (It sounds better in Pahari).
-The smaller band on her right was a 1st anniversary present from her first serious relationship. It went down in flames after a few years due to being pressured to marry and start a family, a situation she felt unprepared to commit to, at the age of 24. Her ex has since moved on, met a bubbly, marathon loving physicist and started a happy family, (3 kids so far, with twins on the way) and has apologised for asking of her more than she was willing and able to give at the time. Louella has apologised for initially making nervous, placating promises in regards to things she was already uneasy and uncomfortable about resulting in the breaking of many hopes, dreams and promises; and has since continued to grow more out-spoken, confident in her convictions and more successful in her career, as well as emotionally fulfilled by her philanthropy. That bracelet reminds her that past unhappiness can still lead to present and future happiness.
Louella is largely vegetarian, but she just can't give up sesame seed, stir-fried ostrich, especially when her amah (paternal grandmother) makes it. She has yet to master the recipe herself, largely because her amah brews a lot of her own sauces and has slyly kept the methods and recipes of THOSE to herself.
While none of her family are necessarily ashamed of Louella's career choice, her amah was the first to be outspokenly proud of her, saying that if her body still looked like that, she would be modelling too, in a heart-beat! She always makes sure to have business cards with free trial-period codes in her handbag so she can give them to her friends who have 'hot-blooded' grandchildren who could use more beauty in their lives. Many assume that a lot of Louella's enterprising nature and salesmanship has been inherited from her amah. They could very well be right.
Louella has since cheekily introduced her grandmother to some photographers who specialise in the 'Mature' side of the market, and her amah intends to surprise everyone with her very revealing photoset being released on her 91st birthday. She was very pleased with the male model she worked with, and has since made several booty calls, much to his delight. If this lasts out the year, she will be introducing him to the rest of the family in the New Year.
As Louella approaches her later 30s, she is starting to wonder if perhaps she's finally ready to be a mother. She just needs to decide if she wants to find a partner, or just go straight to adoption or a sperm bank.
Fun Fact: She is currently on contract as a tail model for a line of organic, nature themed shampoos and body washes. This has allowed her a little extra time to focus on the art of making fake flowers... she may yet fulfill that dream of creating "Forever Flowers".
