A new campaign aims to "turn the traditional sense of beauty upside down" with a series of gorgeous images of physically disabled women, posing with and without their wheelchairs.

The project, called Raw Beauty NYC, features 20 different women with disabilities. It was started by former model Wendy Crawford, who was hit by a drunk driver in her 30s and is now a quadriplegic.

One of the women involved described the campaign as an opportunity for those involved to "showcase who they are beyond the wheelchair."

Each photo is different, portraying the women exactly as they wished to be seen.

Photographer Walter Chin said the project was about more than just the 20 females involved. "To me, this campaign is telling 20 stories of inspiration through the lens of a camera to encourage millions of women worldwide to join the Raw Beauty movement," he said.

Sometimes you just have one of those days when you look in the mirror and think "Ew." And while that's okay every once in a while, it's important to realise that mirrors reflect much more than just how we look.

In this video, released by US girlband The Mrs, an interactive mirror was installed in a shopping center, and women were asked to rate what they thought of their own appearance. But with the help of family and friends, the ladies were shown just how little our looks really mean.

The project was part of a campaign which encourages women to look in the mirror and say, "I'm enough."

We challenge you to watch this without tearing up. Excuse us, we just have a little something in our eye…
