Charlotte Kemp Muhl, longtime partner of Sean Ono Lennon. I thought I looked alright but I feel like a sack of potatoes in comparison! Also she's 36 but somehow looks 22?

For me, after my husband of course, it's the USMNT captain Christian Pulisic.

Every time I see Rebecca Ferguson in a film I’m blown away.
Similar to Rosamund Pike.

In real life, yesterday I saw a young shelf packer in the Coop and stopped in my tracks. Nothing creepy on my part, just recognition of human beauty.

Roy Keane has his moment as the worlds most beautiful man and I knew a half Korean girl in high school who was literally the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen.

DD was so beautiful as a young child I'd have people stop me in the street and tell me she should be a model. She was genuinely stunning. She's still beautiful, but has lost the Pears soap glow she had back then.
My mum used to run a coffee shop way back when, and there was a young man who was so jawdroppingly gorgeous they nicknamed him 'The Adonis'. He was apparently very sweet, shy & blushprone - apparently a bit like a young Prince William. They were so in awe of his beauty they'd fight NOT to serve him in case they made themselves look silly!

However, of everyone I've ever seen... it's DP. He has small, tragic eyes, he has more skin on his scalp than hair, the oddest ears I've ever seen, a forehead ridged like a Klingon, and I could use his nose as a tin opener. We didn't meet when young, so my view isn't clouded by nostalgia - in fact I look at pictures of him as a young man and think 'urghhh'. He's just the most handsome man I've ever seen, because I can see his character in his face.

A man I sat next to on an airplane. I wondered if he was a model as he ate little and was very fussy about what he did eat.

I was also going to say Grace Kelly.

But equally, my friend, who just posted on Instagram about something political. She's in her 50's and looked lit up but composed and just beautiful.

Beauty is very much so subjective. My bestie is usually beautiful: especially when happy and relaxed, her nature is beautiful always. My mother (80 yo) can be beautiful. My son (a teenager) is often beautiful in many aspects. My daughter is usually beautiful, not just physically though, which is an eye opener: to hear someone speak and see their beauty then through their sweetness.

I sound like a new age hippy. I am not! I am very much so bitterly peri menopausal, fat, spotty, thoroughly grumpy and so curmudgeonly I could turn condensed milk sour.

But it does give me a brief relief from my aches and pains and self pity to realise where beauty really lives.

Bravo! Loved reading this!

IdaPolly · 13/12/2023 00:25

Young Eléonore Klarwein, Amelia Warner, Emmanuel Béart, Winona Ryder

Lessstressedhemum · 13/12/2023 00:26

@SandTigerSharkFart , his voice is incredible. It's like being stroked with iron wrapped in silk. His growl is beyond belief. And his hair ...swoon. and I'm an almost 58 year old woman who should know better, fgs.

JurassicParkaha · 13/12/2023 00:26

Michelle Pfeiffer, Penelope Cruz, Connie Nielsen, Gal Gadot and Constance Wu!

Sophie Ellis Bextor in flesh is shockingly beautiful! Perfect porcelain doll! Saw her walking with her children.

Also Sienna Miller, petite and gorgeous.

She is beautiful but I was surprised by how wrinkly she is.

sorry i dont get k pop thing they look like creepy dolls

Yes, absolutely 99% look like creepy dolls, including the rest of BTS.

But V is just so, so gorgeous to me (and most of my 40-something friends).

Allthegoodnamesarechosen · 13/12/2023 00:30

Persian girl at my college fifty years ago. Very strong face, not pretty-pretty but absolutely mesmerising. I’ve always thought Roxanne, Alexander the Great’s wife, must have looked like her.

The younger sister of another college friend, a perfect English beauty.

Jean Shrimpton and Marie Helvin were both pretty much perfect in different styles ( did photo shoots with both of them IRL so saw them for several hours).

My friend Simon, who died of AIDS in his twenties.

DH used to be regularly scouted by model agencies in the street and in restaurants. He’s actually a bit of a nerd and not much interested in appearances.

JurassicParkaha · 13/12/2023 00:32

Oh and Issa Rae. Her face is perfection!

salsmum · 13/12/2023 00:33

Young Elvis,

LongDarkTeatime · 13/12/2023 00:35

A girl I went to school with. She was/is beautiful, clever, hard working and even really kind with it. The full package.

BubbleBubbleBubbleBubblePop · 13/12/2023 00:36

Liv Tyler

whynotwhatknot · 13/12/2023 00:38

ashwarya rai her eyes are mesmerising

katseyes7 · 13/12/2023 00:42

Mick Ronson, back in the 70s. The most beautiful skin l've ever seen, and eyes you could die for. And lovely with it.

mondaytosunday · 13/12/2023 00:50

@BarkHorse there was a guy at uni the girls just fell all over him. He was stunning and so completely innocent- he thought life was golden and it was for him. Lovely lovely guy - his mum was gorgeous too.
Rufus Sewell and Vincent Perez are beautiful looking. Isabel Adjani, Nastassja Kinski - stunning.

Morten Harket. I could just stare at him for hours.

Oh yes, he was beautiful, back in the day....

Also Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Munroe.

Nowadays I love Abbey Clancy - I guess she's had her teeth done but otherwise she's stunning and so natural for a nearly 40 something Mum of 4 kids! I also love her podcast, she is hilarious!

RestingMurderousFace · 13/12/2023 01:02

Christy Turlington
Raquel Welch
Young Brando
That ‘Hot Felon’ bloke.

Gene Tierney and Grace Kelly.

Gene Tierney was stunning. So was Audrey Hepburn. Jenny Agutter is always a favourite. And Marilyn Munro and Rita Hayworth.

mjf981 · 13/12/2023 01:27

Tom Hardy. I just want to do unmentionable things to him. And vice versa.
