Pepper is a British punk, and she's Bijoux's best friend. She has freckles, and she's very mischiveous. She loves punk clothes with torn British flags on them (you know the kind), and punk music.

India is a self professed art/fashion critic, she's like one of those elitist bossy arty farty people! Her ambition is to be an art director. She can be quite mean (see her intro)) but she's also very friendly and easy going, when she's not talking about art.
India has dark blue hair blue eyes and very fair skin. She likes wearing designer clothing, or anything else that makes her look different/smarter.
