How to be body confident at the beach

My first ever experience with body shaming was when I was wearing a swimsuit, so it probably comes as no surprise that I spent a lot of time agonising over wearing one as a teenager and in my 20’s. I remember going to the beach in board shorts and a baggy t-shirt, with my one piece underneath, feeling very self-concious – a far cry from the cocky, confident person I was on the swim team a couple of years beforehand. Things have changed a lot over the last few years, and now I feel completely at home in a bikini. I get a lot of people saying that they wish they felt so confident in a swimsuit, so I thought I’d share a few of my tips on how to be body confident at the beach (or where ever it is that you’re swimming!).

I’ve had so much fun over the last week in the beautiful central North Island town of Taupo, and now that I’m back in Auckland I am seriously missing my daily swims in the freshwater lake! In my dream life, I would live somewhere that I could swim every day of the year. In a deep blue lake, with sandy shores. View Post

Swimsuit Special 2015: High Waisted Bikini

Summer in New Zealand is really from late December to mid-late March, making now the prime time to get your swimsuit on and head to the beach. If you’ve decided that you’re going to rock a two piece this summer and want a bit of extra coverage on your tummy or you love the look of vintage swimsuits then high waisted is the way to go.

Swimsuit Special 2014: Bikini

A few months ago I was contacted by a reporter to talk about the popularity of the fatkini (that’s bikinis for plus size babes, y’all). I declined for a number of reasons, one of them being that the media outlet interviewing me has a history of body shaming and I would much rather use my body positive blog to talk about why I love wearing a bikini! I love swimsuits of all different cuts, but two piece bathing suits have to be my favourite – you can mix and match patterns and choose different sizes depending on your body shape. Bikinis always make me feel brave and powerful, because for so many years I shied away from them. But no more! There are loads of different shapes, styles and prints to help you look and feel fabulous.

Following on from my post about must-have one piece swimsuits, now I’m looking at two pieces – something that can be a big step in terms of body confidence for some people. Do you want to wear a two piece but don’t want to bare your stomach? Or do you have a long torso and find it hard to get a swimsuit that works for you? Tankinis are the perfect answer! You can mix and match them for the perfect combination for you…

I’m going to make the call and say that this is the coolest tankini I’ve ever seen. Not just because of the snakeskin print (which is amazing), but because of the sizing options. View Post
