Describe your appearance in a sentence.

Having just read another thread about the language used to describe non white people, I thought it would be interesting to see how you'd describe yourself in terms of your appearance. I'll start.

I'm in my 60s, white, grey shoulder length hair, green eyes, 5''2", size 16 with big boobs.

Oh appearance sorry!

@Sleeveen just laughed out loud. The expression chimes with me!

Nice blue eyes , great ankles and totally thankful I’m still breathing.

LaMarschallin · 26/01/2020 19:54

In a sentence: tallish, slimmish, blue eyes, probably grey hair but never stopped dying it long enough to find out.

And, like some PPs, not good at counting Smile

Usually bewildered, frequently smiling.

OP, I don't know the thread you based this one on burr I asked a colleague recently "what does she look like" when he said a name of someone I didn't know. He said he didn't like to describe people's physical appearance. I thought that was an interesting value to hold and it's got me thinking. Personally, I'm terrible with names, so I'm always trying to learn people's appearances, but I'd like to find a way forward that didn't cause discomfort.

Nigella Lawsons slimmer but less pretty younger sister Grin
Had to Google her height as I thought was shorter but she's not, must be her curvyness makes her not look very tall.
