Face It

1. Show Confidence and Pride Inside and Out

Decide one aspect of yourself that you feel is attractive and project it. Feel it on the inside and then show it on the outside. When we were modeling, we knew that models who walked into auditions with an air of confidence tended to get the jobs! It wasn’t about being the prettiest—everyone was. Or about being perfect—no one was. It was about how you carried yourself into the casting room.  Some models were known for their great legs, thick lashes, or long necks and used these assets to feel beautiful. Sometimes only a model’s hands or feet were considered model material. Instead of focusing on features you don’t like…..

about yourself, take the ones you do, embellish them and use them to contribute to your definition of beauty. Delicate wrists? Wear an eye-catching watch. Thick hair? An elegant headband or jeweled clip can bring just the right attention. Posture is a feature all women can enjoy if they keep their bones healthy. Women who walk with their backs straight and tall at any age exude pride and beauty. Hold your head up with poise and self- assurance and people will see what you feel.
