No, bra tops are okay as long as they're pretty, but what's wrong with that design Well, it feels like a common thing, but they're starting to censor female idols' outfits again.
It's not pretty.. the outfit is the same every time, really... .
Isn't it Underboob that was all the rage? Bra tops are common now... I'm not saying that's right
The bra top is fine, but why did you put that toy on it?
