goodhousekeeping- Being a model comes with a lot of perks — and a lot of scrutiny. Models are frequently criticized for their bodies if people deem them unacceptable for any reason, particularly when it comes to weight. Fortunately, there are now models like Ashley Graham, a.k.a. the first plus-size model to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue. And she's helping to change how society sees — and talks about — women's bodies.
On Thursday, Graham posted a gorgeous photo where she's riding a bicycle in a short and sweet dress.
The accompanying caption: "A little cellulite never hurt nobody. Stop judging yourself, embrace the things that society has called 'ugly.' #lovetheskinyourein #beautybeyondsize." Considering we are all conditioned to see photos of models with totally airbrushed legs, butts and stomachs that don't have a single ripple on 'em, this is seriously refreshing. Plus, she doesn't just look great, she also looks like she's actually having a wonderful time — another big difference from many of the pouty, sullen modeling shots we typically see.
Whether you want to strut your stuff wearing a cool bikini, short shorts or a chic dress, you should feel comfortable — and cellulite shouldn't hold you back from doing so.
