We all girls have been through that phase where we wanted to be a beauty queen. But, on some level our confidence level shattered our dreams. Those who still want to try their luck in beauty pageants, but are low on confidence, should see this.
Do you remember Miss Universe Thailand 2016 Chalita Suansane? Yes, the gorgeous Thailand beauty who mesmerise everyone with her charm and grace. Well, she has not always been this glamorous. Yes, you heard that right..!! Social media is flooded with these pictures of Chalita from just six months ago, when she used to be a geeky student with glasses and braces.
22 year old Chalita was a student of microbiology, when her sister sent an application for her in the Miss Thailand competition in July last year. Everybody in her family was shocked to hear back from the judges, who were stunned by her long legs and her innocent looking face. The Organisation immediately selected her and whisked her away from classes for a makeover. She then went on to win the Miss Thailand national title and landed among the Top 6 finalists at the Miss Universe 2016 pageant.
Take a look at the pictures from her school days...
When Chalita entered the Miss Thailand competition, she ditched her thick glasses and got her braces fixed. She took up a fitness regime, and lost 7kg. She had to swap fried food for healthy salads. She also spent hours sunbathing to get bronzed skin. Bosses kitted her out with a wardrobe of thousands of pounds worth of designer dresses - and she was pictured at the airport last November setting off for the competition with 17 suitcases.
Talking about continuing with her studies, she said: “Studying is still important for me. When I applied for Miss Thailand my face didn't change at all. I just did a lot of exercise and lost some weight. The rest was down to make-up, healthy eating and sunbathing. And a few new dresses. My plan was always to work in microbiology. Now I'll return to school and finish my studies. Who knows what the future holds and what opportunities there are
