Girls of all kinds can be beautiful - from the thin, plus-sized, short, very tall, ebony to porcelain-skinned; the quirky, clumsy, shy, outgoing and all in between. It's not easy though because many people still put beauty into a confining, narrow box...Think outside of the box...Pledge that you will look in the mirror and find the unique beauty in you.
Love every part of yourself. Even the things that frustrate you. They make you who you are!
Don't chase the money... chase the passion. Because that's what is going to keep you happy and motivated and jumping out of that bed Monday morning.
Stop saying these negative things about yourself. Look in the mirror and find something about yourself that's positive and celebrate that!
I wanted to be a film and television writer and producer.
Self-love has very little to do with how you feel about your outer self. It's about accepting all of yourself.
I love the confidence that makeup gives me.
The runway symbolizes something in society that's very intimidating to women.
I'm not ugly, but my beauty is a total creation....
You've got to learn to accept the fool in you as well as the part that's got it goin' on.
I had had an extroverted personality with a lot of friends, but when I lost the weight and grew so tall, I withdrew within myself.
I look at myself and pick out the things I don't like. No matter how much I work out, I never get muscle tone in my butt and hip area.
Modeling chose me, I didn't choose modeling.
My aunt used to call me light bulb head because my head is small at the bottom and bigger at the top. But it was a term of endearment.
