Made it to the local news! Could you tell me how I look?

I've always wondered what people think of me if they saw me just getting on with my day. The local newspaper did exactly that, now could you MNs tell me what would you think of me? I'm the one on the phone.

Honestly reading threads like this makes me infinitely glad I've spent so much time working on my self esteem. Can't imagine needing strangers on the internets approval on whether I look slim or not Confused

I dont understand the question 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️.. who gives a shit 🤔

Anyone who uses the word “trendy” immediately shows themselves to not be

@Fressia123

It would be closer to body dysmorphia if anything. I've always wondered if I look fat/slim/skinny to other people as I for many, many years thought looked ok but actually was quite overweight.
Tbf I think most people would never say "oh looking a bit fat there, OP" or "You're a bit skinny aren't you?". So it's probably a pretty pointless exercise.

Fwiw I think you look perfectly fine 👍

@Notashandyta

Look ok, but those shoulders! So ageing and bit blokey. Watch your posture

Such a mean thing to say. 😡 Why post this?

The photo is really poor quality on here. I would not have noticed you, I would have noticed the woman on the right of the photo next to the lamppost, as she is wearing a pretty flowery dress, and stands out compared to everyone else's dreary clothes. I also thought the person to the left of the pram was a short woman Grin.
You look like you are on your own!! I'd never have guessed that you belonged with the family in front! Your figure looks slim. Nothing else remarkable at all I'm afraid!

SkiingIsHeaven · 08/08/2020 09:54

I would think that you should look where you are going.

Enjoy your surroundings and fellow human beings.

Look at your phone when you get home.

@EarringsandLipstick

You are right, it was a bit mean.

I could've worded it alot better. What I meant was I think shes got a good figure totally spoilt by her postures and that she could improve her look by holding her shoulders back and standing up straighter!

MorrisZapp · 08/08/2020 09:59

There's a handsome dad in that pic. Can't see anyone else.

Fressia123 · 08/08/2020 10:21

Is that my husband you're talking about @MorrisZapp?

I think you look young and cool!
Weather looks bad in cornwall. Are you not having a heat wave there??

AintOverUntilTheCatLadySings · 08/08/2020 11:02

I'd think you had shiny hair in a nice cut - and to have nice hair at the moment means you must take care of yourself.

You're slim and have a casual but put together outfit on - well-fitting, nice colours and not too trend-lead, just stylish and casual.

I'd imagine you have nice nails and a skincare regime

Whilst sending/reading a text message? Confused

BeChuille · 08/08/2020 11:21

Is that Peterborough?

Crumpets111 · 08/08/2020 11:49

Why do you care what we think?

Fudgefeet · 08/08/2020 11:56

I would think you were a phone addict. Your probably not but you did ask!

durdlestairs · 08/08/2020 12:37

Nice to see some colour in your clothing and not all black.

VincaMinor · 08/08/2020 12:40

I'd think you were in your 20s and looked slim and stylish.

BorisTheBellend · 08/08/2020 13:56

I had to go on my phone to see the picture as I thought it would be more clear on there but it's not. It's not great quality so I can't actually see your hair/face so my assumptions on you are purely how you are dressed and what you are doing.....

I'd say you're very self absorbed, head in your phone not caring what is going on around you. Style wise, nothing wrong with what you are wearing but not trendy either. Just thrown on some jeans and a hoody (?) and dived out of the house without much thought.

GinWithASplashOfTonic · 08/08/2020 15:43

You look great for a damp Truro day. Your yellow T-shirt really brightens a grey day.

Were you in Cornwall Live or that new Truro paper - Truro Voice is it?

Fressia123 · 08/08/2020 15:46

It was Cornwall live... Telling the world that tourists were taking Kernow over as usual....
