Self Confidence: International Model, ‘Vesna Vrankovic’ Unbridles the True Essence of beauty

Beauty surrounds us everywhere. However, there is something we should comprehend about the magnificence of beauty: It truly does resonate from within.

Today, we see individuals attempting to improve their looks; shallow beauty is heavily emphasized, and in the end, the one thing that people struggle with is —self-acceptance.

Serbian/Australian model, Vesna Vrankovic, who has been prominent in the international modeling scene for over two decades, lending her face to top-notch beauty brands, including Tom Ford beauty, Mac Cosmetics and Estée Lauder. Now one incredible mum, who perfectly balances work and motherhood, Vesna, comes forward to reveal that beauty is so much more than external appearance.

Vrankovic emphasizes that women must not compare themselves with any other individual on the grounds that there's just a single you. "In present society, there is a lot of pressure to conform to unrealistic ideals. Along with ads in magazines, Social media has done its fair share in promoting unrealistic beauty standards and lifestyles. The scary part is how this will impact our children, who are growing up with such unrealistic and false representations of how they are meant to look or live. The long-term effects on their self-esteem are yet to be seen, although from what we know now today, increasing numbers of young adults suffer from depression and low self-esteem, and anxiety. Whilst this can’t be contributed entirely to external forces such as the media or social media platforms, they are definitely a significant contributing factor," she says.

Vrankovic explains that in recent years, social media has had a significant negative influence on our self-worth. "I am no stranger to comparing myself to others, particularly in my younger years. The older I get, the more I see the futility of this, and I made a choice to stop engaging in such self-deprecating practice," she says.

"I have not said that endeavoring to be the best version of yourself is awful. In fact, I am an advocate of taking care of your inner and outer beauty... However, pose yourself one question, what is the purpose of being "perfect" on the outside when you are wrecked inside," she says.

Attainable beauty is embracing self-confidence and understanding that each person has an equal share of flaws, making them unique. The only competition you have is your own self; nothing feels on par with beating the past version of yourself and advancing to the next level as a better human being.

"Self-confidence is the way to energize the light of true beauty. A confident woman knows who she is, what her purpose is, and what makes her extraordinary. She realizes that there is a unique calling in her life and that no one but she can achieve it. "That woman is unstoppable", concludes Vesna Vrankovic.
