Dove Cameron in SPACE

Apparently Dove Cameron is joining Marvel's Agents Of SHIELD this year. And this year they're in space, so first thought, some kind of alien princess.

Who is she?

Image found thanks to Simone, via Tumblr, via someone's wallpaper website. That's all GIS could tell me.

So obviously she's me in a better world. :)

Yes, of course I'd like to be a princess too.

Yay Australia!

Remember, Remember...

Is it wrong to envy a 1600s outfit? On a modern actor, not someone actually back then.

I certainly couldn't look as mad wearing it as Liv Tyler does.

Guy Fawkes Night just ain't the same...

I miss Halloween.

After Halloween...

And on into November. Still, not long till Pretty Party Dress Season. Or "Christmas" as I think some people call it.

Okay, between us... not just for Halloween. ;)
