When I made Ariel I originally had a little bit of a different idea in mind but went with something else instead since I hadn't fully fleshed out the concept in my head. It's since had time to sit around in the back of my mind and I felt like it was time to change Ariel's design a bit.
No earrings on in this piece, but she does still have her piercings. It's been rather cold lately, so I guess she's trying to dress a little warmer. I do wonder who she's focused on though, given the playful pose.
