We’re creeping up on what feels like the official end of summer—one last hurrah before life turns into a blur of homework, extracurriculars, and weather that goes from brisk to bitter overnight. If you haven’t worn the swimsuit yet—good news, you didn’t miss your chance. Labor Day weekend is coming and it is still summer. There will be pool parties, BBQs, and sunshine to soak up. Don’t roll into fall with regrets that you sat this one out. To those of you who told me this was the first summer you felt confident enough to wear a swimsuit—I’m seriously applauding you. That’s huge. Putting on a swimsuit is scary and vulnerable, but I promise you’ll have more fun wearing something comfortable and weather-appropriate than hiding under a soaking wet t-shirt that clings tighter than a Dyson vacuum. And listen—there’s no prize for being “early to the party.” Just because you didn’t start summer feeling confident doesn’t mean you missed out. Next year will feel 100 times less scary if you just try it once this year. So let’s do something fun! Drop your most confident summer photo in the comments. Whether it’s a bikini, a sundress, or finally saying yes to short sleeves—you showed up for yourself, and that matters. I’m proud of you. My swimsuit is Livy and Kate!
