Kicking Back
Who isn’t at least a little in love with the sexy Ashley Graham? A bonafide Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, she knows how to work one-piece or two-piece — even with a mouthful of Caesar salad.

The star has opened up in the past about the harsh comments she received and how she lets them roll off her back. “Someone once told me my thighs were ‘cellulite city,'” she said on Instagram. “But I now realize these thighs tell a story of victory and courage.”

One-Piece Wonder
When we first met Laverne Cox on Orange is the New Black, she was one of the few characters as glamorous on-screen as she is off. On her Insta, she’s all about showing that trans is always beautiful.

“Feeling real because that ~celluLIT,~ those rolls are cute, that jiggle is sexy, and everybody deserves to feel confident in the skin they’re in,” the model wrote on one of her Instagram posts. “Who we are is what makes us beautiful, not just a beauty ideal.”

Blame it on her juice! Lizzo‘s body posi journey started about a decade ago. “I’ve been big my whole life. ‘Just deal with it! Just accept your body!’” she says she told herself. “It took a long time. 10 years later, I have a healthy relationship with my body.”

Totally Glowing
Jessica Simpson has talked a lot about learning to love her body despite all the changes it’s been through, especially now that she’s a mom. “Raising Maxwell makes me realize that I don’t want her to see me beat myself up for things like food choices or numbers on a scale,” she wrote in a blog in 2013.

Lovely in Lace
The star loves to strut her stuff in a bikini no matter what — and no matter where. Whether she’s hanging out at the beach or just posing for a selfie in her closet, Jessica is killing it.

Hello, Yellow
Jordyn Woods knows better than anyone that being in the public eye means dealing with the public opinion, but she’s pretty much an expert at letting the hate roll off her back as she does her thing.

And when your life looks as fabulous as this, why sweat the small stuff? Instead, you could be sweating out all that negative energy while rocking a tiny two-piece out on some tropical shore.

Wild and Free
When it comes to comedian Amy Schumer, she’s never been afraid to let it all hang out — both on stage and off. Though she’s a master at self-deprecating humor, there’s no doubt that she’s comfortable in her own skin.

Paisley Perfection
On National Bikini Day in 2017, the star celebrated in the best way possible — by popping on a two-piece, kicking back on a lounge chair and grinning for the camera. Sometimes the perfect pose is no pose at all.

Lime Green Queen
Comedian Nicole Byer also loves to flaunt her figure in a bikini, but she doesn’t see anything revolutionary about slipping into a swimsuit so that you can spend the day in the water.

Total Moo’d
Instead, she’s actually started a series of bathing suit photos where she lambasts the trend of calling women brave for showing off their bodies, adding the hashtags #verybrave, #sofatsobrave, #veryfatverybrave, #veryfat and #sofat to her posts.

“You better believe this #brave #bikini is so stretched out you can barely tell it’s checkered,” she wrote on one pic. “You better believe the black is so stretched out it’s gray. You better believe the spandex holding this together is living on a prayer.”

Gothic Glam
She’s willing to get creative with what defines a bikini, too. “I warned [my friend] that I wasn’t sure if my #brave bikini top was indeed a bathing suit top,” she joked in one post. “She said, ‘I don’t think it is. It’s mesh and I can see your areolas.'”

Surf’s Up
Bachelor alum Sarah Herron has admitted that she feels “extremely vulnerable” being photographed in a swimsuit, but she hasn’t let that stop her from doing a photo shoot on the beach and she’s learned not to get too caught up on whether or not a pic is completely 100% flattering.

Blue Us Away
No body shame at sea! That’s the motto of the yearly cruise Whitney Thore helps lead, and it’s also the perfect motto for hitting the beach in a bikini. The reality star looked gorgeous and glam in her slicked-back bun and stunners with a mismatched two-piece.

Beachy Babe
Her show, My Big Fat Fabulous Life, could not be more perfectly named, and it’s clear Whitney loves to live out loud, rock a swimsuit and slam Instagram trolls all at the same time.

“I am criticized for being fat. I am criticized for exercising. Criticized for being happy. Criticized for being unhappy,” the star revealed on Instagram in June. Though she sometimes needs to take time to handle the hate, she always knows her worth.

Though she admitted she’s been shy about her body int he past, she’s decided not to let that hold her back anymore. Looks like she’s finally joined fellow comedian Nicole in her #brave #bikini life.
