REAL LIFE ANIME GIRL

Meet the real life anime girl who looks like a living cartoon character despite never going under the knife. With her enormous doe eyes, porcelain skin and statuesque pose, Amber Harding could have stepped off a page from a Japanese comic. The 18-year-old from Morley, Perth, Australia, styles herself on the fictional characters, complete with vividly -coloured hair and a doll like pout. Amber says: “Styling myself on an anime girl is a way to express my individuality. I love all things anime and think the characters are quirky and fun.
