Describe [['''Distracted by My Own Sexy]]''' her- ''Oh.'' Well, hel-''lo.'' Aren't ''I'' something?
 
Ah... Where was I?
 
Oh, right. [['''Distracted by My Own Sexy]]''' is a subtrope of [[Distracted by the Sexy]] in which a character is distracted from their objective by their own good looks. This often suggests that the character is exceedingly vain, though there can be [[Man, I Feel Like a Woman|other]] [[She's All Grown Up|reasons]], usually by looking at themselves in the mirror or another reflective surface.
 
In literature, this is sometimes used as an [[As You Know]] to introduce how the character looks to the reader. They often stop to consider themselves and how attractive (or unattractive) they are. Expect any given [[Lemon]] to start this way.
