Change is in the air

So, it was inevitable, the PB, sadly, had to be changed. It was in the works for a long time and I finally got around to it because of the attention I have been giving her (until my next project at work, ha! ugh). I think that this PB gives me more to work with even though I had hoped to find someone less recognizable and a bit less mainstream. However, oddly enough, Miss KP has a lot of images that just "fit" with Izzy's background, so here we are. Good timing though considering that I've been writing her more and suddenly found myself in the a place were I could flesh her out in regards to some more expression-specific images.
I struggled between deciding between Kat Von Dee, Alyssa Milano during her Charmed years and Pink (who would have been awesome because it's the dance style we're moving towards) but I think this is a good fit.
Personality and background history stays the same. No changes there except for what naturally evolves in RP.
What I am changing is that I'll be softening the emphasis on her as a bellydancer when writing because I am changing her to become a more well-rounded performer in general. I'm not negating or deleting those skills, just going to have her focus on other forms of dance performance. It's been more then...7 years? since her inception, I think it's safe to say that she would have evolved in that direction anyway. Truth told, I would rather have her develop stronger cabaret type performance roots/skills than the bellydance elements (since it works better with where I can see her story going and works better considering what she used to do in the past), so you'll see that dynamic shift a bit which means that yes, you'll see a shift in her fashion sense too, which was a big part of her performance appearance. However, a more vintage era look also fits her cabaret story better. You'll be seeing more aerial acts, modern dance, traditional cabaret, and burlesque at the cabaret! (Again, think P!nk.) We welcome you! ;)
So, that's it really!
