## Prompt

```text
{time_of_day}, natural light slants from the left. She stands sideways, torso slightly twisted, one hand lifting to brush her hair ends, the other resting at her waist, looking back over her shoulder toward the lens with a languid, casual air — as if captured spontaneously by a companion — frame slightly tilted, with phone‑camera grain and mild overexposure.

Outer: a {outerwear}, dropped shoulders, open, hem at waist. Inner: a {inner_top}, U‑neck, thin straps, hugging bust and ribs, tracing chest contours and waist dip. Bottom: a white high‑waist fitted mini skirt, front button placket, snug over hips and thighs, hem at mid‑thigh, accentuating the smooth waist‑to‑hip curve. Feet: clear PVC thin‑strap flat sandals. A fine silver chain at the neck, small hoop earrings.

Light: warm afternoon slanting sunlight, creating soft highlights on collarbones, shoulders, and skirt, with visible skin texture and fabric folds. The grain of a phone snapshot enhances realism, making the body’s curves more pronounced through light and shadow.
```
