"Looks aren't everything. Believe me, I'm a model."

A video by model Cameron Russell that some here may find interesting. Cameron founded Interrupt magazine, where she now works to create a space in the media for marginalized voices.

good one, but a little bit deceiving.
for the trained eye, (the real and/or potential) model is easily readable in any outfit, circumstances, etc. it's BIOLOGICAL.

plus, ask the former Chief of Disguise for the CIA, Jonna Mendez

Agree, the original video shows stereotyping on wardrobe and I liked it. As someone who spent many years dressing as a plain Jane with no make up and simple hair I've triggered jealous female coworkers. That biology thing is unavoidable. Had only I known then, what I know now that insecurity speaks more about them.
I'm going to look at the second one now, thank you.
