Clothing
She is a very arty, creative woman, and this often reflects in her clothes. Rich fabrics and exquisite decorations in form of beads and metalic threads on darker outfits are an often noticed trend of hers; she would usually wear an exteravagant, flowy top with jeans or just a long, comfortable dress.
When working (Either sowing or painting) she abandons all beauty of clothing to sport dungarees, or jeans and a plain white (but heavily stained) t-shirt, and often all with a rough apron.

History:

Ruby Alice had lived for a long time in the UK with her Sister, Daisy, and her Brother, George, when they had all been called Hangleton at the time. George and Daisy grew up quickly and got married, even though both were younger than her. Life was going well for George and Daisy; George and his wife ran some hot-shot Hotel, and had two sons. The first went on to take over the Hotel, and the younger one was Steve. Steve was "adopted" at age Three by Daisy, her husband and Newly Born daughter, Poppy Wilson. His parents didn't have the time and energy for Steve; one son was all they needed.
Daisy had two daughters; Poppy first, and Claire a few years later.
Alice had enough of her siblings' compicated, prosperous and happy lives and ran away to Tropico, where she started a Boutique, which became a very grand affair, due to her success as a designer and clothing manufacturer. The shop soon expanded and began to sell not only her clothes, but many fancy and imported pieces.
She lived a happy life in Tropico, and against all doubt, found the perfect husband. He often went on baot trips and fishing expeditions though, and had been gone for over a year now, so Alice had given up on him coming back and went on with her life. Soon after she got married, Steve and Poppy grew up and followed her to Tropico, where both were having good lives so far. Poppy was running a succesfull bakery, and Steve was just plain rich because of the money his parents and brother sent him out of guilt.
She also, as a hobby, started painting, as well as growing a huge garden filled with veggie patches and fruit trees, the products of which she often sells at the Fresh Produce market.
