At the moment I'm looking for:

1. shoulder pads/spikes
2. necklace
3. possibly an alternative for the dress
4. possibly an alternative for the straps

I would definitely change to a tanner skin base and use different eyes and lips. with an item to cover up the bottom. I think the straps you have on are the only ones that could work for her mourning outfit.

I can't really do a tanner skin base because I'm a zombie--the current one is the closest I've been able to get so far :/ Otherwise, thanks for the advice!

You can toggle your zombie skin on and off using the Skins feature of the Beta Wardrobe. :)

d'oh >.< Thanks again! :)

You're welcome!
