“Women can be powerful, intelligent, fierce, strong, sexy, and advocate for change while wearing what they want. Women do not have to be modest for people to respect them. We should all feel comfortable expressing ourselves anyhow that makes us happy.
The days where women were ashamed of their bodies are now behind us. We should be proud of who we are, both inside and outside. Thank you. @taylorbphoto @si_swimsuit @mj_day @darciebaum @ja_neyney & the whole team.”
