I wish I was a soft golden or brown shade, but not me. If I tan, it looks more reddish & will fade in a day or two so I've never bothered trying. Now that I'm older, my light coloured skin looks less a smooth colour but veins & slight mottling shows up easier (not quite so hideous as it sounds). I like to make people laugh & just tell them I'm fish-belly white.
I'm a Austrian-Hungarian ancestory with black hair, very blue eyes, & pale skin with florid undertones when I'm warm (which is always). Would you believe a customer at work asked if I was Persian? With blue eyes yet? Like bookgurl, my hands are all over the place when I'm talking & I can be very intense when I'm excited about something (which is most of the times). Lots of times, I need to be gagged when I get going about things I love.
