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.

Deteriorating

I definitely never learned to take a compliment, I wish I could because it's lovely to be complimented. I'm also feeling a bit self-conscious about my looks and I don't normally. I've just been the mother of the groom and all the dressing up and prep involved a lot more looking in the mirror than normal.

Short fat and frumpy isn’t necessarily a bad thing, though? Reality, but is it bad?

Joe Brands less attractive sister.

Some of the replies are hilarious. Okay mine isn’t funny but I think honest.. I’m 5ft 5, mid forties and still very pretty and youthful with long dark hair, good teeth and skin, no wrinkles, freckles, hourglass figure, big boobs and bum, nose broken so a little crooked (it adds character Wink ). Style is natural, understated in a sexy way Smile, at work businesslike but ‘outdoorsy’ outside of work

WendyMoiraAngelaDarling · 27/01/2020 17:12

Blonde with fading, just above average looks.

Oh well here goes - am elderly, cuddly (read fat), hair resembles the end of a yard broom, shortish, but would like to think I am a nice person to know.

BohoBunney · 27/01/2020 17:20

A hot mess.

Somanysocks · 27/01/2020 17:23

Absolutely bloomin' gorgeous.

Fifilafrog · 27/01/2020 17:45

5'9". Slim (but a bit saggy). Long dark hair (with a few greys), fair complexion with a few freckles (and wrinkles), dark eyes (which now need reading glasses), all my own teeth (for now!).

Dishevled!

Therealjudgejudy · 27/01/2020 18:00

37, lightly tanned skin, long curly dark hair and grey eyes. Look 10 years younger and am always called pretty.. Size 8, 5ft 4 and pretty fit...but I work out hard for it Smile

lilgreen · 27/01/2020 18:02

One sentence!!!!Sorry.

googleyourheartout · 27/01/2020 18:30

5ft3 dyed blond bob green/grey eyes, freckles sz 12 but definitely a soft 12 not a toned one. Dimples. Yearn to be naturally stylish but never quite manage it. On a good day I feel quite pretty on a bad day I can barely look at my reflection.

ColourMyDreams · 27/01/2020 19:19

Like a twiglet with tits.

( As described by someone recently )

GenevaMaybe · 27/01/2020 19:22

Medium height, relatively slim, paler than pale, prematurely ageing.

swearymary100 · 27/01/2020 19:35

Bag of potatoes propped on hour-glass legs, wolf-level hairiness & a back the shape of an oven-ready chicken.

I have a 4 month old, get dressed if I have to Grin

Carnabie · 27/01/2020 19:50

Small, pale and plain with shit hair

JackMummy12 · 27/01/2020 19:59

Plain and chunky

LuluJakey1 · 27/01/2020 19:59

5ft 7, blonde, blue eyed, exhausted and (in my mind) average build but in reality probably more womble-shaped.

NemophilistRebel · 27/01/2020 20:01

Short, dainty in many ways but with thighs and arse that won’t quit

NemophilistRebel · 27/01/2020 20:01

When I am feeling down about myself I describe myself regularly as a melted marshmallow

Redyellowpink · 27/01/2020 20:16

Resting bitch face

Breathmiller · 27/01/2020 20:19

Right now?
Naked as the day as I was born (I'm in the bath) but not nearly as bonny Grin
