It's Sunset Shimmer Day, and it's a favorite of mine! Not just because I love fall, and I really am ready for some colder temperatures where I'm at, but because I'm a fan of the world's best former unicorn would-be Equestria conqueror.

I wanted to capture a bit of downtime for the Best Human, and while I didn't follow her canon living space exactly I really liked the collegiate feel that it had... especially appropriate for a character who has to make it on her own in a new world. I originally envision a truly ugly green-and-orange plaid for the chair to really hammer home the scavenged feel of it, as she would still be in that point of life where comfort and free mean more than style (don't tell Rarity.) In the end, though, I went with some Twilight-ish colors instead.

Plenty of other references tossed in there as well, from her gaming tendencies to her "Monday Blues" backpack and "Good Vibes" sneakers. Add a Canterlot High sweatshirt (why should all of her friends be the only ones to wear one?), a poster for her favorite singing duo, a mug from Pinkie Pie's diner, and a certain rarely seen pet to fill out the celebration of the best Equestria Girl.
