I’m a plus-size and love wearing bikinis – if you’re avoiding shopping because you don’t feel ‘confident,’ I can help
A PLUS-SIZE influencer has consigned granny-style swimsuits to the fashion trash can.
She has demonstrated that there is a huge variety of stylish and sexy swimwear for the larger lady – including bikinis.
If that was not enough, she shows those lacking self-esteem how to rock the poolside look with oozing confidence.
Casey (@streetsbeatseats) uses her TikTok to advocate “self-love, body confidence, and curvy fashion,” to her 92,000 followers.
In her swimwear post, she presented a roll call of colorful one and two-pieces that her fans described as “stunning.”
“You’ve avoided swimsuit shopping because you didn’t think you’d find one you felt confident in,” she began her post, wearing a baggy black sweatshirt and loose beige shorts.
But the tone changed radically in the next frame.
Wearing a bright pink one-piece, she reassured viewers with her caption, “But then you found my page.”
“Sharing swimsuit fit reviews to help you find something that suits you and your needs,” she said.
This lady’s quest for good-looking swimwear for curvy women came from many disappointments.
“I hated one-pieces as a kid,” she said. “It was always an awful shopping experience.”
But the choice of colors and styles she had on display was dizzying, and she wore them all with confidence.
It proved to be a popular post with over 32,000 likes.
Typical of many was this comment: “Makes me happy to see that even if you’re bigger you can look good,” said this fan.
Another pointed out: “I’m so glad that one-pieces have come so far since I was a kid. The ones they make now are so cute, when I was a kid it was only grandma-looking ones.”
There were umpteen compliments.
“Girl I love all of these you look amazing,” observed this fan, followed by another’s: “Girl, you rocked every single one of them.”
Final word to the wise words of this viewer: “Keep doing you, queen. Confidence is key to a happy life,” she said.
