They’re all gorgeous.

I just loved the honesty too.

Here’s my comment:

“I can’t say I’m in the “I hate skinny girls” camp, I’ve always been naturally tall and slim. But consider me firmly entrenched in the “anti-airbrush” side. I love seeing her belly and body here (naturally skinny girls get those bellies too after kids!)because it’s HONEST. We desperately, all of us, no matter body type, or skin color, or hair texture, all of us need to see OURSELVES represented somewhere! We need advice that actually applies to us. We need a range of fashion that we can actually afford and that actually works on our bodies. It is imparative that we stop comparing ourselves to air-brushed, flaw-less images that aren’t really even a reality for the models being photographed. Yes, they are prettier than the rest of us, but none of them are nearly as perfect-looking as the final image presented to us. Women are drawn to shows like “What Not to Wear” and “Biggest Loser” because these shows actually give us advice we can apply to ourselves. I want to see REAL women with normal, healthy bodies. I want to see pale, freckled, red-heads sometimes! I want to see what to wear to drop my kids off at school for a change! Show me how to be GLAMOURous at a soccer practice or in the grocery store every once in a while. And lets be HONEST about how this perfection we see is obtained. Between the spray tans, the airbrushing, the professional lighting, the team of stylists and hair people, we regular women of the world don’t stand a chance in hell of measuring up. Thanks for giving us a break – even just this once.”

I love the picture! She’s all the more beautiful because she’s REAL!!

*THIS* is what I want to see in a magazine. Real, beautiful, non-airbrushed women.
