[googlefont="Amatic SC:400"][googlefont="Satisfy:400"] must be a dream i see its like deja vu again Sunny- Alice
Despite her vanity when it came down to it Sunny was a simple girl who liked simple things. Anything fragranced or pink was bound to excite her best friend and if she could somehow find a way to combine the two it was a total win. Besides, what girl could say no to a little pampering? It was honestly every girl's right to be treated like the princess that she was. When Sunny agreed to accompany her, Aly squealed in delight. "OMG, it's going to be so much fun! It's been like... a month since we had a spa day. We're long overdue. Plus, they have this new cotton candy nail polish that actually matches your car. How cute, would that be?"
Much as she expected, as excited as Sunny may have been about the facial, the blonde was positively over the moon when she presented her with the perfume bottle. Not that she blamed her of course. Her mother's scents were legendary and never failed to impress. As a favor to her mother, the nineteen year old had also tried the perfume that she was now offering to Sunny. It was a lovely, flowery scent with a hint of sweetness that was likely to suit the model's tastes well. However, the actress was partial to the fragrance that her mother had customized for her. Smiling softly at Sunny, Alyson added "It's a combination of your two favorite scents. It's a little strong at first but softens a bit as the day goes on."
While it was often said that one could not improve upon perfection that never seemed to stop Alyson from trying. Truthfully, the teen had gotten a pedicure a week ago but in that time, the luster of the polish had faded a bit. While the coat was marred in any way in the blonde's mind it was simply time to get it redone. Naturally, this meant that she spent far more time in salons than necessary but as she was a generous tipper the technicians never complained. In fact, the actress was such a staple there that it made perfect sense to the owners to ask the teenager to do a commercial for them. Having done so with no cost to them had place Aly in the position of having them owe her a favor which typically came in the form of them making house calls at her request.
Of course Alyson didn't expect this service to be free of charge. The expense was simply added to her tab which she paid in full on her next in salon visit. As many times as she'd seen her levitate somehow it still caught Aly offguard when Sunny's feet left the ground. Giggling a little, the blonde dug through her purse until her hands made contact with her cellphone. As she withdrew the device, Sunny prattled on about showing her new friend her swimsuit collection. Alyson didn't have a swimsuit on her, but she wasn't particularly bothered by the fact as she and Sunny wore the same size. She'd seen her best friend's swimsuit collection so many times that she'd practically had it memorized. As the nineteen year old punched in Mae Ling's number a thought suddenly occurred to her causing her to gasp aloud.
"Sun, I totally forgot that I don't have a swimsuit in this car. I left it in the Bentley. Could I borrow that adorable rose pink tankini?" It was an ensemble that she knew would fit her like a glove as they'd bought them at the same time. Only hers was red.

As Aly gushed about her facial, the blonde was reminded of what she adored most about her best friend. Most considered the numerous conversations that the pair had regarding hair, makeup, and skin care to be vain or superficial at best and utterly pointless at worse. It was disheartening really how many people failed to acknowledge the significance of putting your best 'face' forward. Much like giving each other a time to meet at a specific place, promising to 'treat' one another to anything was meaningless. That wasn't to say that she didn't intend to make good on her promise to cover both her facial and Sunny's but rather that the blondes were both so wealthy that neither was likely to feel the impact to their finances anyway. As Sunny explained that she didn't drink, a girlish giggle erupted from Aly's throat. Waving her hand dismissively at her friend Aly replied "I know that you don't drink Sun. Neither do I. Champagne and Strawberries are ingredients in the facial. The aroma is heavenly. It's like having perfume on your face. Without the break outs, of course."
While she, herself had never been marketed as a goody-two shoes, Aly could still understand the need to keep one's image clean. Being seen drinking alcohol while underage would be bad publicity for them both. Hanging out with Sunny was always fun although a bit frustrating at times for someone who preferred to plan things out to the minutest of detail. Aly knew that she should be used to her friend's spontaneous nature and yet she was still a little annoyed. After all, her mother always said that if you failed to plan then you planed to fail. Speaking of her mother... the blond dug into her chanel purse and withdrew a small pink perfume bottle. Extending the bottle towards Sunny, the nineteen year old said "Oh, I almost forgot. My mother told me to give you this. It's a new scent that she's working on and she wants to know what you think."
Admittedly, because Sunny was so terrible at planning Alyson had gotten used to being the planner between the pair of them. Which was likely why it had come as such a surprise to the blonde that while her friend had initially seemed quite interested in her proposal that she made an counter offer so to speak. What was perhaps even more baffling was that Sunny's suggestion was entirely private in nature. Sunny actually didn't want to draw attention to herself? As the actress found herself resisting the urge to put her hand on the other blonde's forehead to check for signs of illness, the supermodel turned superhero went on to voice her concern about being photographed in the same outfit. Ok, valid concern. That sounded much more like the Sunny that she knew and loved.
Alyson had to admit that as much as she adored the cuisine at The Rooftop, Sunny's chef was quite accomplished. To date his Eggs Benedict was still the best that she'd ever had and the teen rarely passed up an opportunity to show off her curves. After all, she worked hard on her figure so why not flaunt it? Suffice to say that the teenager was on board with the modifications to her plans, however it would seem that Alice was still interested in getting a pedicure which gave the actress an idea. Smiling warmly, Aly added "Well, I think I might be able to arrange a house call to get those pedis. I could call in a few favors if you want."

Out of all the people that Alyson had given the title of 'friend' to, Sunny was easily Alyson's oldest and dearest friend. Which was more than a little strange to those that observed the pair together. While both girls would adamantly insist that they were quite different, their similarities were so much so that it would seem that they shouldn't get on well together at all. Namely because both blondes were incredibly vain and superficial. Yet they still found time to step outside of their own world long enough to compliment the other. Aly supposed that it was in this that their friendship found its true strength. To put it simply, they stroked each other's egoes enough to be able to tolerate the other's presence.
It was no secret to anyone that had ever encountered Sunny that the girl adored perfume. Which was probably why she and Alyson's mother get along so well. Sunny was absolutely the perfect guinea pig for Priscilla. In fact, a lot of the perfumes that her best friend wore had indeed been made by her mother. After having spent so much time with Sunny, somehow Aly had seemingly become immune to cloud of perfume that the other girl wore. Or perhaps it was that the smell of her own intermingled with that of Sunny's and they just somehow cancelled each other out. A solid compliment was never lost on the actress and as such the blonde beamed at Sunny when she commented on how lovely her skin looked.
I know right! I just left Verabella. They have this new gourmet facial with champagne and caviar that is amazing. It makes you skin feel like silk. Ohmigod, you have to go with me next time. My treat. I'm totally not taking no for an answer."
Politely, Alyson waited for Sunny to properly greet her friend with a warm hug and re introduce her to Alice before grasping the blue haired girl's hand for a shake. Unlike her own delicate and dainty grip, Alice's was firm and almost somewhat masculine in nature. Offering Alice a friendly smile, Aly replied "It's really nice to meet you too. I am glad that you could join us today. Especially on such short notice." As Alice inquired what the plan was for today, Aly shifted her gaze to Sunny her brow arching quizzically. Had Sunny really invited this girl along on their excursion without giving her the itinerary?
Sunny had likely been so excited about the meetup that she'd completely forgotten. It wouldn't be at all unlike her friend to do such a thing. Smiling softly the blonde responded "Well, I think first some light shopping and maybe then on to grab a bite to eat at the Rooftop. It's only my most favorite restaurant to eat at ever. Most of their entrees are both vegan friendly and gluten free. Everyone says that reservations are pretty hard to get but honestly, I've never had much trouble getting one. Ooh, maybe we can even go for pedis. I've clearly already got my mani down today but left before I could get my pedi. What do you think Sunny? You up spending some time at TNL?"

Alyson's eyelids fluttered lightly before gradually opening to the sound of her cellphone blaring Ariana Grande's '7 rings.' Glancing down at her hands, Aly gently ran her finger along her nails on first her right hand and then the left. Noting that the polish seemed unaffected by the contact, the blonde slid off the lounger and made her way over to her belongings. The nineteen year old stepped into her black and white checkered mini skirt and tugged a sheer black chiffon blouse with sewn in push up bra over her head. Alyson slid her feet into a pair of sequined white ankle boots to complete the outfit. Freeing her hair from the confines of the towel, Aly quickly drew her long blonde locks up into a sleek high ponytail before sliding a pair of diamond studs into her ears.
Slipping a pair of burberry sunglasses over eyes, the starlet scooped up her Prada tote and strolled out of the room into the lobby. "Was everything to your satisfaction Ms. Strauss," the receptionist inquired. Smiling brightly at the woman Alyson replied "Very much so. My skin feels amazing and my nails are gorgeous as usual." "That's so wonderful to hear. Shall I charge it to the card that we have on file for you?" Aly nodded as she reached for a discarded ink pen atop the counter. Scribbling in a 50 dollar tip for the services, the nineteen year old signed the receipt and shoved her copy into her purse.
Exiting the spa, the diva strolled down the sidewalk towards her silver Aston Martin V12 vanquish. It felt so odd to be driving herself, Alyson noted as she unlocked the doors and got into the vehicle. 20 minutes later, Aly pulled up behind Sunny's pink Bentley. The pair had been friends for years as Sunny's mother was her PR agent and they'd been booked together on tv shows as well as a few modeling shoots. With the latter being much more in Sunny's wheelhouse than her own. In fact the girls were seen so often together and so similar in nature that people often confused them. Which was insane because Sunny dressed far more conservatively than herself and wore WAY more pink.
Alyson couldn't help feeling a little surprised that Sunny had wanted her to meet another friend as Sunny often complained about not having any friends other than herself. Making friends had always been rather easy for Aly as she was really outgoing and fun-loving. Even though on some level she suspected that some of them were disingenuous. Putting the car in park, Alyson checked her reflection in the rearview mirror and took a moment to touch up her lip gloss. The facial had given her skin a healthy and youthful glow that she hadn't wanted to marr with powder or foundation. Instead she'd opted to simply go with mascara, lip gloss and a soft eye shadow.
Giving herself a final once over in the mirror, Alyson withdrew the key from the ignition and stepped out of the car. Aly couldn't help but to smile a little as her gaze fell upon her friend. Even if she hadn't parked quite as close to Sunny, she would have still easily found her friend as Sunny's flashy pink Bentley was hard to miss and if that didn't draw one's eye then the bright pink dress the blonde was wearing was sure to do the trick. Gliding over to Sunny, the nineteen year old beamed at her best friend saying "Darling, you look amazing, that dress is too cute and those stilettos are to die for." Just as she leaned in for a hug, Alyson caught sight of a girl with blue hair walking towards them.
Well, that's an interesting choice, the movie star thought to herself. Quirking a brow at the younger girl, Alyson shifted her gaze to Sunny before allowing it to drift back over to the blue haired girl whom was now greeting them. "Um, hi. You must be Alice. I'm Alyson," the blonde started as she offered Alice a perfectly manicured hand to shake.

It had been one of those days that should Alyson have been old enough to do so, the blonde would certainly have indulged in a glass or two of wine. However, since she was not of age to do so nor did she even possess so much as a wine cooler, Aly had decided to do the next best thing... spending the remainder of the day shamelessly pampering herself. In fact, at that very moment the nineteen year old was lounging in a black leather massage chair wrapped in a silk robe with her lovely visage engulfed by a charcoal face mask. Her damp locks were wrapped in a towel as a woman seated at her right hand side was busy painting her nails. Another woman still was busily applying a second coat of polish to her toenails as she rested her eyes beneath two cucumber slices.
In the distance, the nineteen year old was aware of a faint buzzing coming from the direction of where her belongings had been neatly gathered. What an incredibly inopportune time to receive a phone call, Alyson thought to herself as her eyelids slowly opened. There was simply no way that she could get to her phone without ruining her nails. It was quite the conundrum. She could always simply disregard the call or text but what if it was someone important. Like that super hot guy that she'd met at the beach last weekend. Although, if it was a guy then she certainly shouldn't answer the phone immediately. After all, she didn't want to seem desperate or as if she'd been awaiting his call.
Men did appreciate the 'thrill of the hunt' as it were. In the end, the starlet's curiosity won out prompting the teen to inquire "Mae Ling, would you mind..." Before she could finish the inquiry, Alyson could hear soft footsteps padding over to where her person affects were. Within a few minutes, the nail technician eased back down on the stool next to her saying "You received a text message from a person named Sunny. She would like to know if you want to meet up at Rodeo Drive today. She has someone that she wants you to meet." A smile flitted across the movie star's face as she nodded her head replying "Text her back and ask her what time does she want to meet."
It was truly a pointless inquiry as they both knew that Alyson would show up whenever she pleased, but it was important to know when she would exceed the point of being fashionably late. With a time confirmed, Alyson concluded their text conversation by proxy with a text indicating that she would see her soon. With that distraction settled, the nail tech returned to the business of her manicure finishing her right hand and switching to the left. Being instructed to wait at least 15 minutes for her nails to dry before moving, the teen drifted off for a few minutes.

HAIR // Blonde[break]

SKIN // Fair[break][break]
ATTIRE[break][break]
When it comes to fashion, Alyson doesn't like to box herself in. She will wear anything that flatters her figure, compliments her complexion, or brings out her eyes. With her idea of a perfect outfit being one that combines all three. As a result of an allergy to both polyester and cotton you will never catch her wearing either of these fabrics. It is believed that her allergy is the reasoning behind her insistence on wearing designer clothing only. Because her style is seemingly so simplistic, Alyson tends to over accessorize with heavy beaded necklaces, diamond cuff bracelets, and large gaudy rings. She is a bit of a hoarder when it comes to handbags as she has a purse for nearly every outfit that she owns. Alyson is fond of bold colors particularly dark blues, deep reds and fuchsia. Not much one for hair accessories, she prefers to wear her hair down with her signature part on the right or center part.
[break][break]
GENERAL[break][break]
Standing at 5'9, Alyson is slender with a petite waistline and delicate curves. She has a smooth peaches and cream complexion and almond shaped brown eyes. Alyson is always camera ready as she likes to call it meaning that she absolutely refuses to leave home without makeup on and her hair perfectly coiffed. Ironically, Alyson wears quite a bit of makeup in an effort to achieve a 'natural' look. Her standard make up application includes: foundation, primer, blush, eyeshadow, mascara, and lip gloss with the occasional substitute of lip gloss with lipstick. While she will do so if a role or a photo shoot dictates, Alyson loathes having her hair cut above her shoulder blades and much more prefers keeping her long tresses flowing at least to her mid back. Blessed with a youthful glow, Alyson tends to always look a few years younger than she actually is.
[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]PERSONALITY [attr="class","hopelovetop"]
In one word: spoiled. She is unbelievably spoiled. Over the years, Alyson's doting parents have inadvertently taught her that the world revolves around her and she acts accordingly. Hilariously prissy, Alyson has an aversion to any substance that could prove a danger to her perfection. Which means that simple things such as rainwater, mud, and a heavy gust of wind often prove to be her kryptonite of sorts. Alyson is naturally melodramatic and as such she tends to often blow things entirely out of proportion. Not a big fan of sharing the spotlight, Alyson is her happiest when she is the center of attention. She prides herself on being the epitome of elegance and class which she tries to display in every facet of her life from her choice of residence to the type of car she drives.
[break][break]
Having never really had to work a traditional job, Alyson doesn't know the value of a dollar nor does she truly understand the concept of struggle and sacrifice. As a result, she is often quite irresponsible when it comes to finances. Despite her best efforts to present herself as elegant and classy, Alyson is actually quite immature. She is prone to whining, pouting, and throwing tantrums when she doesn't get her way. Well aware of the impact that she has by being beautiful and innocent looking, Alyson can be manipulative when it comes to getting what she wants especially when her tantrums fail her. While there is typically no malice detected in her words or actions, Alyson can be unintentionally rude. As much as Alyson enjoys shopping for herself, she enjoys spoiling her friends and family with lavish gifts even more so.
[break][break]
Alyson has virtually no impulse control. She truly doesn't believe in denying herself anything whether it be a forbidden sweet or a pair of heels that are outrageously expensive but super cute. Alyson is extremely friendly; particularly when it comes to her fans. She never misses an opportunity to sign an autograph or pose for a picture. As a result of being waited on hand and foot for the whole of her life, Alyson doesn't know how to do many of the self sufficient tasks that most young women her age should know how to do such as laundry, cooking, or cleaning.
[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]HISTORY [attr="class","hopelovetop"]
Born to Priscilla Strauss, famed chemist, and Edward Strauss, up and coming executive producer, Alyson was raised in the lap of luxury in Beverly Hills. With her father still being new on the producing scene, most of the wealth the family acquired during Alyson's formative years was a direct result of the success of her mother's cosmetic line. As Edward continued working towards creating a name for himself in the industry, Priscilla expanded her beauty brand further by first introducing a new line of fragrances to compliment her thriving skin care line as well as launching a new line of hair care products. This provided the family of three with a firm foundation with which to continue to build what would come to be a rather sizable fortune. [break][break]
As a child, an energetic, dramatic, and extremely animated Alyson completely overwhelmed her nannies prompting multiple resignations and forcing an exasperated Priscilla to seek out more productive uses for her daughter's boundless energy. At the age of four, Priscilla enrolled Alyson in a local youth academy for performing arts. Over the next five years, Alyson flourished under the tutelage of private instructors particularly in the areas of voice, dance, and acting. At 9 years old, while still a student at the academy, Alyson was discovered in the academy's production of 'Legally Blond The Musical' and soon after booked for her very first commercial. [break][break]
After performing exceptionally well in the commercial, the offers soon began rolling in much to the delight of Edward whom was often being sought after to produce some of the shows that she was being considered for roles on. Priscilla, on the other hand, quickly began to become overwhelmed with the business aspects of managing her daughter's suddenly booming career leading her to hire both a booking agent that she had heard of from another mother of a student at the academy as well as a PR agent that Edward suggested named Melissa Slater. With Melissa onboard, Alyson's career skyrocketed leading her to her book several more commercials as well as a few cameos as an extra in some independent films. However, Alyson's biggest break didn't come until 4 years later when at 13 she was booked as a regular on a Disney show alongside Melissa's daughter Sunny whom the show was centered around. While the show's premise was solid, the titular character's acting left much to be desired allowing Alyson to truly shine in her supporting role. [break][break]
Nevertheless, it wouldn't be enough to salvage the show which was subsequently cancelled after one season. Over the next few years, Alyson went on to star and cameo in several more Disney shows even landing a major role in a Disney original movie. Since then, Alyson had gone on to voice animated characters on popular cartoon series and movies alike. She's been nominated for multiple teen choice and kids choice awards throughout the years and even won a daytime emmy once. Alyson's is currently working on her next big project which happens to be working on a song for the soundtrack of an upcoming Disney film. While she has enjoyed her time on Disney and the channel has absolutely made the starlet a household name, Alyson is eager to branch out from under the brand and play more mature roles. [break][break]
As a result of her connection to Melissa Slater, Alyson has begun to dabble into the modeling world a bit as she attempts to gradually distance herself from her label of 'Disney sweetheart'.
