Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 193

Chapter 193 

Lulu examined the outfit. “Moonlight white is fine. There’s a subtle shade of blue that complements your skin tone. What about 

accessories? Should we add a strand of red coral?” 

“No red,” Carissa replied. “Keep it simple, not too grand.” 

She selected a white pearl hairpin and paired it with two moonlight 

white silk ribbons. 

“That’s still quite plain,” Lulu observed. 

“Plain or not, we’ll know once it’s on,” Carissa said. 

She went behind a partition screen to change into the outfit. When she emerged, she had styled her hair into a simple bun, secured with the silk ribbons and adorned with the white pearl pin. 

She twirled, asking her maids, “How do I look?” 

The girls were mesmerized. Even without makeup, Carissa resembled an ethereal fairy. The two silk ribbons in her hair added a significant touch of elegance to her moonlight white dress. 

Lulu quickly turned to Pearl. “Lip balm, earrings, perfumes, and pearl pendants–hurry!” 

“Got it!” Pearl immediately got to work, gathering various accessories. 

Lulu seated Carissa at the dressing table, then applied lip balm for her and redrew her eyebrows. When she was done, she draped a long necklace of pearls around Carissa’s neck, and added a butterfly pendant to the sash around her waist. A soft, sheer outer garment completed the look, adding an extra touch of ethereal charm. 

Lulu thought for a moment, then decided to tie the sleeves back, giving the outfit a playful and youthful edge. The lip balm’s subtle 

red made Carissa’s complexion acteur even more flawless, and her 

appear natural blush, without the need for rouge, was a testament to the effectiveness of Sebastian’s blood regulating medicine. 

Lulu beamed with pride. 

The fabric of the outfit was exquisite, with the pleated skirt made of soft satin that flowed like water with every movement. The light. flowing gauze overlay and the silk ribbons in her hair made Carissa look like a celestial being 

Carissa gazed at her reflection in the copper mirror 

Was she truly beautiful? 

Back at Meadow Ridge, no one ever praised her locks. Evenione only ever called her a monkey. 

When she returned from Meadow Ridge, ready for courtship, her mother had dressed her up meticulously and she had spent time avoiding the sun, which made her skin as smooth as silk. Everyone who saw her couldn’t help but remark on her beauty. 

She remembered Barrett’s first visit how he had been unable to take his eyes off her and had spoken with a changed tone, his formalites in disarray. She recalled his dazed expression and thought at the time that he must be a fool. 

It turned out he wasn’t a fool, just a heartless man. 

Carissa turned around and gazed at herself in the mirror, then asked Lulu, “Do I really look good?” 

Lulu stood beside her, leaning close to her cheek as they both looked into the mirror together. “Well, do you think you look good?” 

Lulu was attractive herself. Although her features were not perfect. they came together in a very pleasing way.
