That weekend weather 🙌🏻
The Montauk Blues #latergram
You don’t get what you don’t ask for, am I right? • I recorded a few times before this and kept talking about how inspired I was by the #SIswimsearch last year - and believe me, I was inspired. But then I realized that DUH, of course @mj_day and @si_swimsuit know that - why else would I want to be part of such a cool movement? So I figured it was more important to talk about important things, like how I cry during every episode of #ThisIsUs or how the best part of my day is coming home and taking my bra off 😂 • This definitely made me feel vulnerable when posting. Why? Because I’m not the industry standard for what a model looks like. I haven’t proven myself in any way, shape or form that I would be looked at as model material, so what if people judge me for trying to do this? But that’s just it. SO WHAT if people judge me for trying to do this? I have to thank my mom @terese_howey for always encouraging me to follow my dreams. That woman celebrates everything I do and encourages me every step of the way. She’s helped me become the woman who’s confident enough to do something like this. I’m out here pursuing my dreams, one submission video at a time 💁🏼‍♀️ • Ps if you also submitted a video for the #SISwimSearch then message me so we can talk about how nervous we both felt just before posting them 😂
When it’s Wednesday and it’s rainy and you’d rather be back on the beach ... • Swimsuit is from @amazonfashion and is only $18!
There’s just something hysterically chic about boxed water @just 💦 • Got my butt kicked this morning at the Bari x Surf Lodge class this morning! Somehow sweating so much isn’t as bad when you’re on the water
After almost a week away from you guys, I’m back! Life has been crazy to say the least for the last couple of weeks, and I needed to take some time away from worrying about content and hashtags and follower count so that I could regroup and focus on some other aspects of my life. I missed you guys though!! • I’m heading out to Montauk for the weekend with two of my besties for some girl time and R&R. Any suggestions for what we should do out there? • 📸: @spanchor
I’ve been stretching like a psychopath the last few days. If you’ve been watching my stories 👀, then you know I’ve been doing my @nikerunning plan, as well as @strongandsexyfit 2 week toner plan. Suffice it to say, my butt is getting KICKED 😅 I made the epic mistake of not stretching enough at first, and suffered because of it for days • This morning I woke up and was sore as hell from yesterday’s arm workout 💪🏼, but also feeling ready to take on Monday. Today’s to-do list? Survive work, complete the 🍑challenge (aka booty day), renew my lease and hit the post office. Being an adult is sooo exciting haha!
Something I’ve struggled with as long as I can remember is body image. I know I’m not alone in this - in fact, I don’t know anyone who hasn’t struggled with this in one way or another. But why is it something that’s SO important to me? 🤔 • Some mornings I wake up and my belly feels flat and it puts me in a good mood and I’m confident. The next day I can wake up and feel bloated and disappointed in myself. What the heck is that all about? It’s not like something magically changed overnight and now I appear to be a totally different person, right? So why do I let it control my mood and my level of confidence around others? • Today I was writing out a list of goals for myself that I want to accomplish by the end of 2018. One of those goals was to be a certain number on the scale. And as I saw it there, next to running the NYC marathon, applying to grad school, and traveling to a new continent, I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. My weight is so beyond irrelevant in comparison to those goals. I KNOW I’m healthy. I’m active and adventurous and yes, I could stand to make healthier food choices. But until then, my doctor and my blood work all report that I’m healthy, so why does a number on the scale get to control my life? Nope, not today Satan 💁🏼‍♀️ • 📸: @spanchor
