I should have got a better picture of my halloween make up

Hand coloured photograph.

[Grainy b/w photo of Siouxsie, washed-out so facial features are hard to discern. Fabulous very-dark stylized eye makeup with beauty marks, hair pulled back at the neck(?) so that the silhouette is contoured rather than rounded]
This is the height of excellence, yes](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyfhadbWS61qg2v8mo1_500.jpg)

[Two color portrait photos of Siouxsie, in profile]
If it’s really true that she’d grown up thinking she was ugly because she didn’t match up to what was on magazine covers etc.—not a hard thing to believe, all things considered—then I wonder what it was like for her to suddenly have people photograph her, want to look at her, not because she was acting shockingly, but because her features and presentation were so unique.
Call me a sentimental old fluff, but I don’t see how anyone can look at photos like these, even profile shots—especially profile shots, nobody has a nose quite like that!—and not think she’s beautiful.

[B/w bust-length photo of Siouxsie in profile, with her hair up, wearing a polka-dotted blouse with lace at the collar]
I hear Siouxsie Sioux won “Most Beautiful Profile” nine years running
that is a lovely blouse.
(the lovely profile and person wearing said blouse goes without saying)](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz5t93NTTO1qfxcj3o1_500.jpg)

[Animated gif of Siouxsie, hair in her face, looking sullen and bored]
I discovered this week that the reason I always get put on high theft risk areas of the shop (greeting and fitting room) during school holidays is because I scare kids.
not sure if proud of this or not.
