Japan-based photographer Toyko Wolves captured this fun candy girl photo shoot, and it features fun hippie-inspired elements. Polka-dot nails, rainbow lipstick, pink frilly jackets and a giant [rainbow lollipop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candyinspired) are the perfect elements that bring this lively shoot together.

The model also wears a bright pink tutu and converse chucks, which give her a sporty cheerleader look. Her rose-colored sunglasses are very playful and cute, and the [blonde wig](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hally-hair-1) completes the shoot. The look is great for a [costume](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trickortreatable-costume), but the rainbow lipstick design might be a bit too much for your everyday public appearances. The Japanese photographer chose a white background to highlight the model’s bright ensemble and even in the images where her facial expressions are demure, her outfit speaks loudly for itself.
