I believe they're representative of volleyballs though, since Dreaming Now! is the theme song for the World Grand Champions Cup Volleyball.

This style suits her so much: it's so messy and on her it looks so hot. Adorable.
And I have to say I appreciate more the covers now that the ball presence has some kind of sense!

Actually the ball represents the Earth and she's showing us she's a goddess who has us on the palm of her hands
