Today, acting as a one-day store manager at Watsons HWB All-Star Carnival Extravaganza at Haixinsha Island, Guangzhou, wearing this meticulously prepared Cat-ear maid outfit, the on-site atmosphere was truly enthusiastic. I really love the design details of this costume: the black-and-white color-blocked puff sleeves paired with red-and-white laced trims, the large red bow on the chest adorned with small stars and strawberry pendants, and the white apron featuring red strawberry buttons, making the whole look both cute and somewhat exquisite. To match the overall styling, I specially wore a pink Cat-ear headband, added pink highlights to my hair, and used pink circle lenses along with heavier pink eyeshadow blending for the eye makeup, hoping to present a playful state with a touch of ACG feel.
As a one-day store manager, I needed to constantly change poses before the booth to accommodate photography. The giant red-and-white striped candy prop in the background was extremely eye-catching, combining with TENGA's brand visual elements to create a strong visual impact. I tried leaning against a silver metal pole, or squatting down resting my chin in my hands. Because the overall on-site environment is red, finding the right angle for the lighting hitting the face is actually necessary, otherwise it's easily makes the skin tone look unnatural. The black over-the-knee Stockings and dark brown chunky-heeled small leather shoes in this pairing are also parts I'm very satisfied with; the over-the-knee Stockings just happen to leave out the absolute territory, visually elongating the leg lines nicely, and showing a hint of minor sexiness when walking or squatting down.
Maintaining a good state on-site is actually quite energy-consuming, requiring constant interaction with everyone, while constantly minding the garment's smoothness, especially the skirt's pleats and layered lace trims, which easily get messy if not careful. Although standing all day wearing platform shoes was a bit tiring, the lively atmosphere on-site, coupled with being able to participate in the event in such a special identity, felt quite fulfilling. When striking finger-heart poses with both hands or lightly touching my cheeks with my fingers, I could feel everyone's gaze and the camera lenses focusing on me. This event experience was exceptionally special, and the Cat-ear maid attire also allowed me to try a shooting style different from daily life; the combination of black Stockings and the maid outfit is indeed truly charming.
