I think I agree with melissak (again :3). I don't really know what it is though. Something to consider about the dresses is that they might have tried to give her less fancy dresses to help her ease into her new life. Less frills, less poofyness, less lace, but still soft and silky. Also, about how old is Lu?

Nothing seems too rushed. It works nicely. I can't wait for the next part. Soooo many questions! I'm sure all will be answered in good time. Keep writing!

It seems like she's more worried about fashion and herself than the boy, who is yet to be named. She seems to be moving too fast into acceptance then she would be in real life. I would think she's still in shock and less worried about her wardrobe. It's a good book though and I hope you continue. Seems like somethings missing though, something crucial, but I can't put my finger on it.
