As always she was kitted out in the pristine pastels of baby clothes and her little plimsolls were so white my eyes ached. To look directly at them one would need a piece of cardboard with a hole in it, of the type used for viewing a solar eclipse.
The character is described as being dressed in immaculate pastel-colored baby clothes, highlighting her innocence and youthfulness. Her white plimsolls stand out to an extent that makes them almost painfully bright, suggesting a sense of purity but also drawing attention to her appearance in a striking manner. The comparison to a solar eclipse viewer emphasizes just how intense the brightness is, implying that even the eye cannot comfortably take it in.
This vivid imagery paints a picture of a childlike figure, suggesting not only innocence but also a careful attention to her appearance. The choice of colors and the pristine nature of her clothing reflects a certain fragility and beauty, evoking a sense of nostalgia and tenderness in the description. The contrast between the character's clothing and how overwhelming it is to look at suggests that there is more to her than meets the eye, inviting further exploration into her character.
