sounds like something that i used to feel
Eloise had grown quite fond of the sun.
As a duchess lounging about had been permissible, but not appropriate for the majority of her time. Her skin was quite pale from her time indoors learning to dance, studying, and attending various functions. The only real time she was ever outside was on her way from one social interaction or another..and then there had been Saiden. But of course that had all been behind closed doors.
Now a proper smuggler, Eloise was as suntanned as the best of them, now more used to walking barefoot than in heels, more used to bikinis (or bits of the sail tied around her body) than ballgowns. Today she wore a breezy white linen dress that billowed about her tiny frame, playful in the wind. Standing with a large sun hat she stared out at the open waters and white half-moons of waves as they crashed just past the shoreline. Feet, bare, and toes ringed with silver, Eloise was now the picture of carefree as she shaded her eyes seemingly considering something.
