After Surgery, Back to Work! 術後、お仕事復活
After 2 weeks of the recovery time, I went back to work. During these recovery days, I had basically no social life, no make-up and no hair-do. Some friends pop-up to check up on me, and that cheered me up! But otherwise, I was getting a low self-esteem over time. So, dressing up brought back my good energy! I really needed that effect from the styling.

Teaching Wednesday 水曜日授業の日 Pose #509
"Did you make that turban?" Being in a college where fashion creators get together, it is easily assumed that I make the accessory. Turban is probably easier to make if I like to, but sometimes people asks if I make shoes I am wearing. These comments make me smile.

Killer heels. I love these heels, but I cannot walk too long with them. If wearing some very casual piece on your clothing such as sweat pants, also wear something very feminine together. This makes a look interesting and fashionable.
