Joseophine Bonapart

Island Girl to Emperor

Josephine’s life was FILLED with drama. She went from a tanned skin colony girl, with a bad reputation, to the literal Emperor of France. How did she pull off such a dramatic rise to glory?Hint, very very manipulative and smart woman who used her beauty and her sexuality as a tool for her success.

She used FASHION in this social ascent.

Think; translucent dresses, gold jewelry, pale fleshy skin, thigh jewelry, emeralds, snakes, empire waist. She DRIPPED sexy.

Oiled skin, sexy scents, heavy makeup and tanned skin.

Josephine was notorious for living above her means, much to her husband’s dismay. She loved all things luxury.
