Geisha


She was very well received - the loot bag bulged. I have no idea how long it took for her poor mother to get the makeup on - and then get it off again.
 And she says the wig was HOT! The photo shows a solemn face because she says geishas have to look serene.

But isn't she beautiful.

  4. She is gorgeous ... but I do hope no one told her that Geishas were trained simply to please men. Not the best role model for my favourite neice!

  5. Lovely costume!
