Toda Erika and her beautiful legs

The most recent issue of fashion magazine "an an" is all about how to get beautiful legs and they've chosen actress Toda Erika (21) as the representative of long and slender legs. The cover already shows why she is the perfect choice for this topic.

Of course she has long legs by nature, but it takes a lot of training and effort to keep them as beautiful as they are. Every day she has to try training every muscle whenever and wherever possible. "I'm worried about how I can make them look beautiful just like everyone else," she said.

Toda is known for her stoic personality, but during her debut days she frantically did a lot of muscle training. Eventually it became too much for her and she suffered from fatigue and bone fractures. "Then I heard from a friend that oil lymph massages are supposed to be good for your body. After that I went to a beauty salon to get such a massage, but I ended up learning a lot more about how to change your body line." People at the salon actually taught her a lot of good methods to improve and maintain her beautiful leg line. One of them seems to be the frequent usage of Germanium hot baths. The effect must be great, especially when you are stressed out. "When filming I have to wear heels throughout the whole day and my feet become swollen. With the baths the swellings immediately go away."

You don't just have to take care of your legs, you also have to know how to show them off in the right way. "I always try to choose designs that give me a beautiful silhouette. When you want to wear a skirt, it absolutely has to be a mini-skirt. You can even wear them in winter, as long as you have some nice boots to go with them. Though, you have to be careful with knee-high boots when you have bow legs like me." She also has some tips for the perfect standing figure. "You don't just have to stand around that often, but when you do, make sure to put one of her legs slightly behind the other. Always keep both of your legs close, that way you will have a beautiful leg line."
