Bree dresses imacuately and is generally well-groomed, with even her hair styled perfectly. It is pushed back out of her face completely and not even a single hair is out of place. This shows she cares about her appearance and that she is a perfectionist. It also suggests that she cares what others think about her. The clothes she wears represent her role as the typical housewife and are quite stereotypical. She wears plain cardigans and tops, often in feminine colours such as pink. She often wears dresses (sometimes with floral patterns on them) or skirts as she is stereotypically a very feminine character as a housewife who enjoys cooking and cleaning. In the picture above she can be seen wearing a pearl necklace and earrings. These are simple and again represent her femininity. They also signify her class as middle/upper class. She wears make-up but it is usually quite subtle therefore making her seem classy as she does not wear a lot. Generally it appears she is trying to conform to the role of the perfect housewife. Appearance clearly also means a lot to her and she seems to really care what her neighbours will think of her and her family. This is reflected in some of the narratives like for instance when her daughter becomes pregnant and she tries to hide this from her neighbours by pretending she is pregnant.
