Hey Freckle face......


Its so refreshing to see magazines showing girls with freckles and its not just because I have freckles (which i do!) but because im sick of seeing everything photoshop-ed to perfection....

im at a point in my life where Im happy with the freckles, laughter lines and ready to face whatever comes my way in the future...

Big Thanks to Kathy for giving me a Blogtoberfest Spirit Award... big Hugs right back to you girl - thanks to you October is going to be a great month with all the Blogtoberfest posts going around bloggy land!!!

He he, I'm now thinking, wouldn't it be funny if the models actually have flawless skin and have had cute little freckles painted on.... :P

karina said...

I feel exactly the same!
Terrific blog you have!

hokey said...

They are so pretty. I have always wished I had freckles, lucky you!

The sheer amount of Photoshopping that gets slapped onto almost every image in a magazine is pretty insane. Long live freckles!

I could not agree more with you. I love all the little things that make people real and unique. Hate the plastic look of aging stars and am sad about the perfection of magazined images. Wonder what the real people feel like, in these mags, when caught as "normal"...

Bec said...

ooo i love freckles in pictures! I have freckles too - not many but just enough :)

And isn't that hairdo on the dark-haired model great, along with the dress.

ah yes.. i have freckles all over my face, but they aren't really noticeable until I'm outside a lot, so generally in the summer. But when they show up, they are lovely.

yay to freckles and being less than perfect.
magazines sell perfection and I refuse to buy into it. I like buying and reading magazines though...
your pics are lovely as always :)

I am in love with freckles. My son has the faintest little smattering of freckles across his nose, I don't think anyone but me has spotted them, I hope they become more prominent in Summer!

i love your attitude, a! and you are so right, it is refreshing to see a person and not the idealized version of one.

As the mother of two freckle faced cuties (and a freckle face myself) I couldn't agree more!
