I'm Carolina from Ecuador, and I have been living in the USA for four years now. I became a mom two years ago, and the change that becoming a mom brought to my life has made me appreciate the beauty of life in a whole new way, including my own personal, external beauty. Of course, I see myself differently in the mirror, and I feel different. I’m a mom — the most proud and happy mom — and a wife who tries to stay beautiful for her husband. Sometimes, I just pause for a moment and appreciate how different I’ve become since having my baby. That’s true beauty: the marks of pregnancy on your body, saggy teats, and the dark circles under your eyes from the nights when you only get four hours of sleep. That’s the beauty the world needs to see — the beauty that many moms often try to hide or feel embarrassed about.
Fashion Hero is an interesting concept because it challenges traditional standards of beauty and showcases diversity in a way that’s often overlooked in the fashion industry. It’s about celebrating different body types, skin tones, and life experiences, rather than just adhering to one specific look. For someone like you, who recognizes the beauty of being a mother and embracing natural changes, Fashion Hero can be a powerful platform to highlight that true beauty comes from within and is reflected in how we carry ourselves — not just how we look. It embraces authenticity and empowers people to feel confident in their own skin, which is a message that resonates with the real-life beauty you've described.
I would be a great role model for this generation because I embrace authenticity and the beauty of life’s changes. As a mother, I’ve learned to appreciate the marks of pregnancy, the exhaustion of late nights, and the strength that comes with it all. I believe true beauty comes from within, and I strive to inspire others to feel confident in their own skin, no matter the challenges they face. I can show others that being real, embracing imperfections, and owning your story is what truly makes you beautiful.
