I just asked this on tumblr but I am so serious what does this mean? Why are her lips orange? SmartAsset what does this imply about your services? Is getting a family trust like eating a lot of Cheetos or blowing King Midas? Is the intention just to make me look at this bad ad?

an ad for some sort of family trust service or advice service. it shows an older woman, beautiful, all in black and white, except for her lips, which are inexplicably orange.

book cover of fox of fox hall by r. cooper, shows two small figures, both with tails. one is large with a sword and the other smaller with a lute. they are surrounded by curlicues with a crown looming above them.
