When somebody smiles, that is beauty.

I loved 'The Face of Beauty' section in this week's Fabulous. I'm not suprised that Anna got spotted by a model agency. Her striking red hair and cute freckles are absolutely stunning. I never understood why red-haired kids got picked on at school. I always thought that it was unusual and personally, I'd rather by anything but the same as anyone else. It's so much better to be unique. I wish more models like the women featured in this article were used in fashion magazines.

I always imagined I would feel more confident about my looks as I got older, but oddly the opposite has happened. I felt so much happier with my looks in my early 20s, but now I am nearly 30 I am thoroughly fed up with what I see when I look in the mirror each morning. I hope this will change when I have children, as then I will realise that my body is actually rather special.
