Everybody can rock a bikini, swimsuit, unicorn onesie... whatever floats your boat. If you wear it with confidence, you will look hot.
Iskra Lawrence
For me, I feel empowered when I use my body to exercise, play sports, and explore the world. My body allows me to sing, dance, talk, feel - and eat a damn good piece of cheesecake.
You are good enough as you, so delete that Facetune app and step away from that really weird filter that makes you look smoother than Craig David.
Hateful words stand no chance against self-worth and a little of humor.
On a night out, I can feel unstoppable with an eyeliner wing and a bold lip. But I also love that I can still feel beautiful and confident without any of that.
You don't always need to be this flawless female with amazing skin and done hair. Perfect doesn't exist.
Girls shouldn't be worried about their cellulite or their rolls. Or anything that makes us real.
If your girlfriend is saying, 'Ugh, look at my stretch marks, look at my rolls,' don't say, 'Yeah, I hate my thighs, too.' Say, 'No, you look really cute today - and I feel good, too!'
The first time I learned about Aerie, I was blown away by how beautiful and confident the models appeared in their ads - and more so that they were un-retouched.
Instead of waking up and worrying about your thigh gap, wake up and worry about what you're going to achieve today. What can you do, and how can you give back?
Social media should be a true sense of who you are.
Oh my goodness - Zac Efron has great abs.
I'm very aware I have very young people following me - 11- and 12-year-olds. I want to do things that are aspirational, so I'm not going to pick a picture that's unattractive - even in the sense of lighting and angles - but I make sure that it's realistic. It is me, and it is my body. I wouldn't put anything out there that isn't real.
I feel like I deserve to be loved because I've learned to love myself.
Be you. Everyone else is already taken.
I refuse to let something as insignificant as a size or number on a scale determine how I feel about myself. I am grateful for my body, my health, and the life that I have, and no arbitrary number should have any impact on that.
When I was a teenager, a mean comment would have hurt me deeply, I've made it my mission to be a role model for young girls and boys and help show them that other people's words or opinions have nothing to do with how beautiful they actually are.
When you're happy and at one with yourself and have come to peace with who you are, that radiates.
You should be waking up and being excited about what you're going to do today, and your friends and your family, and what you're going to achieve in life.
Throughout my whole teenage years, I had zero confidence and had to build it from the bottom up.
I don't ever wanna blame my body for not being right.
I want to be the girl that's real and show other girls that you don't have to have flawless skin or the 'perfect' body - because that's just not real.
The more time I invested in myself and finding out what made me unique and special, the more jobs and campaigns I booked.
I tried the maple syrup diet. I tried the protein-only Atkins diet.
There's a direct correlation between media and how we feel about our bodies.
I had a turbulent relationship with my calves, but I love them now because I realize that they were never the problem.
I dreamt of being an Aerie model before I came to New York. That was one of the main reasons I came to New York and wanted to get signed.
Any images that I've had retouched, I look at them, and I think, 'Oh I actually don't want that.' That's why I don't share them on Instagram.
I think unretouched images are even more beautiful.
I didn't always have a lot of self confidence growing up.
For so many years, I thought I wasn't good enough.
I had a taste for this fashion industry that I loved and wanted to be a part of.
I just spent five, six years sacrificing so much to try and fit into that one ideal, that one small standard, and I was never good enough. And it was just frustration that turned into motivation... That became my ammunition, all the people that told me I couldn't.
If you start talking to yourself in a loving way you're going to feel so much better, and your life is going to be so much happier.
You're always 'too' something.
I started when I was 13 years old by entering 'Elle Girl''s search for the next supermodel in the U.K. I got to the finals and was signed by Storm.
We need to realize that we can do anything with our lives because of who we are.
Clothing for larger sizes doesn't have to look frumpy and old; it should seamlessly integrate fashion - like Universal Standard.
After so many years of being rejected and having my body scrutinized... for Aerie to come along and basically say, 'We accept you. We don't care about your size.' To see those pictures on a Times Square billboard, and they were completely unretouched, I just was like, 'Wow. I finally feel good enough!'
There's nothing wrong with having a bad day. Let yourself feel those emotions because every emotion is validated.
I remember doing a commercial one time where I stepped on a shard of glass, and I was hobbling around in swimwear. It was raining and in the commercial, when I saw it, I didn't look like I had a messed up foot.
Obviously, breast cancer is very much out there but cervical cancer isn't talked about as much because there's a bit more of a stigma around it. Certainly that's something I want to make sure that young girls know.
I think everyone who shares a piece of themselves and is open and honest - I think that helps us all.
Everyone has to realize that body-shaming can happen at any size.
The focus for me is always about health. That's why I talk about self-care rather than size or anything like that, because that's something we can all do that's relatable - this discussion of being healthy form the inside-out.
Invest in brands that make you feel good and that you believe in.
A brand is only going to want to be more inclusive if they feel like it's going to be good for business as well as making the consumer feel good - so we have to encourage people to do that. Consumers have to stand up and say, 'I have power: my pound or dollar is how I vote.'
You can't compare yourself to anyone else. I try and use this advice daily. I didn't actually fully believe that until I was maybe 21 or 22.
No matter what age you are, your voice should be heard, and you can develop a passion for something and be an activist in your own right, in your own field, for something you feel strongly about.
I remember I took an editorial, and I was so excited. I got the pictures back, and I looked in the magazine, and I was like, 'Oh my gosh!' My arms were half their size, and I had a thigh gap magically, and all these crazy things. My family went out and tried to find my pictures in the magazines, but no one could recognize me.
