I was tagged by
Rinny to do the "7 Beauty Characteristics" post, and I have been meaning to update anyway so here goes!
For the tag, I'm basically supposed to list 7 physical characteristics about myself that I appreciate. At least that's the gist, I think. Then I need to tag 7 people.
Tags like this run the risk of sounding vain, but I think it's important to occasionally self-evaluate and find things you can appreciate in the physical realm. I don't know about you guys, but I am VERY critical of the way I look, and myself in general. It's generally easier for me to find my flaws. After some thought, here are the things that I think are beautiful about me.
(Click images to enlarge for more thorough stalking)
1) Hands: Kind of weird, but I get a lot of compliments on my hands. My fingers are long and skinny, and my nails grow super fast so they are generally long and pretty.

This is an awkward pic of me covering my face from a while ago haha |
2) Hair: I actually complain about my hair a lot because it can be very difficult to manage-- it's naturally very curly and can sometimes look like an afro or lion's mane. BUT, my my hair holds style very easily, and I can straighten it, curl it more, or leave it natural and it looks different every day!
3) Height: I'm 5'6" -- I used to wish I was shorter because I think it's really cute for women to be petite, but at my height (and I guess build) I can shop anywhere I want and not have to alter anything. I know that finding the correct fit is a struggle for a lot of women.
4) Nose: not too big or small, I think it suits my face.
5) Teeth: but yes I do whiten occasionally, so gotta give NightWhite some credit!
6 &7) Brains and Sense of Humor: Not a cop-out! I feel this way about others and about myself. I think my intelligence and my humor make me more beautiful, and the friends (and men) I find most attractive OVERALL, are the ones that possess these traits. I've dated some men who I thought were gorgeous and I know their personality affected my judgement... after those relationships ended my friends would say, "What the heck were you thinking?!" Oh well! Now I have a fiance who I find very physically attractive, and also bright and interesting! :)
