The person is also wearing a black sweatshirt with white patterns on the upper right. The person has stretched earlobes with a large gauge earring. The person's lips are full and appear glossy. The background is blurry and suggests an indoor setting with neutral-colored walls. The person is facing towards the camera and in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
