Copenhagen (CPH)

Copenhagen was my last trip on 2019. The city itself was nice with an easy life vibes, not too big to explore but I have to say that I really enjoyed walking getting lost on its streets and treating myself as a local going with a bike all around.

As soon as we landed, I took my time get off the plane and let other passengers to leave the plane since they’re always too excited also because it was too early for me to go the hotel. So on my way to the exit area I saw a jewellery store and of course, I end up buying a pair of earrings, then there was this coffee shop and God! the smell of a good coffee! so I had to stop buy a large cappuccino and also a cinnamon bread... ¿because why not, right? we’re on vacation! As I was waiting for my order I remembered that I didn’t have a fucking itinerary, like I didn’t even know what’s around my hotel area other than it’s near the Central Station, I get my self a table and start checking for places to go and stuff to do in Copenhagen.

After leaving all my stuff in the room, went straight out to start the “tour” and since I didn’t really know where to start or why am I even doing in that city. The hotel has this river called Sankt Jørgens Sø right on its side so I went there to start also there was the Tycho Brahe Planetarium, so I sat on a bench right in front of the lake to enjoy the view and the peace of that area there was no other sounds just the ducks and people walking or running by the time. After feeling the warm of the sun I went straight to its city alleys just to walk around as usual until getting into some random place to take a picture or so and by going through Det Ty Teater alley I end up into this church called Elijah’s Church that it looks more like a little castle to me. I don’t know if it was just me but I couldn’t find any local food I would say so after wandering around I end up eating lunch at Wok Baren, I have to say that the food worths five starts and place was very fancy; even the washroom.

Went back to the hotel to rest a bit since I had to wake up early that day for the flight and also check what to do by the afternoon, I guess I can say I was pretty lucky that day because I had the chance to enter and enjoy the Tivoli Gardens which is a 19th-century amusement park, the place that inspired Walt Disney. I really enjoyed my visit so much since it was not that busy so I had the luxury of strolling around and and taking photos. It is surely one of its kind and as it’s situated in the very centre of Copenhagen. There are many different ways to entertain yourself there, extreme rides for thrill seekers, easy rides for the little ones, restaurants and lounges for the tired ones or elderly. I also had the chance to enjoy a ‘Free Concert’ of ABBA to end the night and also because they were about to close the venue and change its them for Halloween and they were gonna take at least two or three weeks to reopen. Lucky me!

Second day was surely more intense since I spend the whole day outside and check the other half of the city: Nyhavn and get a walk by the seafront to see The Little Mermaid which is not very spectacular, much more like a tourist trap but it's an enjoyable 30 minutes walk to get there. As I turned around I divert my walk to see the Gefionspringvandet (Gefion fountain) which is a bronze fountain depicting Norse goddess Gefion and on it’s side there was St Alban’s Church a traditional English Angelican church. Which it leads you to Kastellet a star-shaped military fortess and ramparts. On my way back to Nyhavn I preferred to get lost on it’s alleys and amazed by seeing this hidden jewel Frederik’s Church, an 18th-century Lutheran church with the largest dome in Scandinavia.

Back to Nyhavn port we’ll find the Mindeankeret (Memorial Anchor) and the view of the colourful historic canalfront townhouses with wooden ships. A very scenic location but also very touristy; I know I am a tourist as well. Took a walk a bit further down to where there were some old warehouse that had been converted into apartments. Had lunch and some wine. Both were delicious.

I took another bike from Nyhavn port to cross the Inderhavnsbroen bridge to get to Christianshavn and see the Freetown Christiania which is a kind of experience; a complete different place in comparison to Copenhagen, it’s like the little mole in the city that makes it incredibly better. A few walks from Christiania there was this impressive baroque church called Church of Our Saviour, and I don’t even know why, but this was one of the most relaxing places I have visited. It’s an 17th-century place of worship with a carillon and steps around the outside of the spire, unfortunately, I couldn’t go up the tower due to high winds on that day. Another bridge that connect both island is the Knipplesbro a moveable bridge with interesting green columns and to enjoy the beautiful views of the modern Copenhagen seafront. There’s a boardwalk downstairs to get to the Five Circles Bridge a very interesting and cool bridge. Perfect place to take photos. Hooping back on a bicycle, we’ll cross the Lille Langebro bridge straight to the Danish Architecture Centre which is a restores warehouse to leave the bike and behind it Frederiksholms Kanal surrounding several museums like the Danish War Museum, Danish Jewish Museum, Enquestrian statue of Christian IX, Thorvaldesens Museum and The Royal Library.

HS!BoRhap au.

ok so

i like this concept A LOT

imagine joe, ben, gwil, rami, lucy and allen all being in the same group

joe would be like the biggest goof

always pranking others and getting into trouble

doing absolutely anything in his powers to make others laugh

great dancer

loves american sports and star wars

his biggest fear is lactose

doesn’t have a plan

but he has a yt channel

gesticulates a lot when he’s talking

recently found out perm stood for permament when he did it for a challenge

his favourite song is somebody to love

unfortunately he would date girls who aren’t too good for him

using him and his kind heart

until ben came along

and he kinda taught joe how to fight for what he deserves

and now they always go speed dating together

but some people from the school would rather see them as a couple

ben is like both the cool and the insecure guy

every girl wants him, especially since he played in a school theatre

and wear a wig

but he doesn’t see himself as the godlike creature they see in him

he sees every single mistake he does

and that brings him down

but his friends won’t let him resign

he’ll follow his dreams cause he’s ready to be a star

once lied about playing drums and he had to learn it within a few weeks

loves tom hardy, that’s why his nickname in school is hardy, despite his real name being jones

dresses like a model or like a homeless person, nothing in between

he’s really good at sports

also, he has tinder

occasionally likes a girl’s picture on ig and this is the only thing the school talks about for the following week

hardz(z?)ello is SO shipped in school

joe literally got a cardboard cutout of his friend for his 18th birthday

and he loves it more than him

gwilym is like the mature, dad kind of friend

he always make sure the others will get out of their adventures alive

he is the smart guy, glasses and books in hand

good grades

one girlfriend throughout the enitre hs time

who he plans to marry

she’s one of the sweet, kind ones

and everyone in the group immediately liked her

gwil’s the golden boy, parent’s and teacher’s favourite

runs marathons for charity

also he can play guitar and often does on some trips

rami is the quiet guy in the group and the flirt outside of it

when he’s astonished by something, he’ll repeat the same information to anyone he’ll meet

trips and falls a lot

used to be a delivery guy and this is how he got into dating

looks more innocent (and younger) than he is

finishes all his arguments with “f**k society”

for a long time he’s been shipped with an exchange student from scandinavia whose name was somehow similar to tyler

definitely has a thing for blondes

he and lucy has been friends for years when they found out they both had a thing for each other

(all the others knew about it for years)

and they got together and they are like a dream couple

he loves her so so much and he isn’t afraid to show it

making all the other couples jealous

he works hard for his dreams and luc is like his biggest cheerleader

they want to move in together in college

she confused him once with sami

and rami won’t let her forget it

lucy is the sweet and smart girl

asks on several occasions why she hangs out with those people since she’s so mature and they’re… not

but she feels comfortable around them

and they wouldn’t let her go (especially joe)

she knows the boys waaaay too well

isn’t the jealous kind

everybody knows she has a bright future ahead of her

allen is the one who’s SO funny SO effortlessly

already engaged with his sweetheart and they will get married after high school ends

he knew her since kindergarten and they dated for 5 years

she is like unofficial part of the group

liked by everyone, hangs out with luc and gwil’s girl a lot

allen has an accent that make girls’ knees weak

very generous, helpful, with a really nice smile

when he starts to laugh in class everyone follows

the headmaster is tom hollander

the one who has all the power

but he’s very kind and isn’t so uptight

he lets the boys get out of the trouble A LOT

also secretly cheers for them when they have their adventures

even bigger dad of the group than gwilym is

brian may teaches physics (duuuuh)

roger meddows taylor - biology

freddie mercury - art

john deacon - english, although his handwriting is very hard to read

mike myers - ethics, he’s everyone’s favourite, funniest teacher

aidan gillen - guidance counselor

aaron mccusker - that one sweet guy everyone has a crush on (including boys)

anytime somebody would find a homeless animal they would bring it to mr. may and he would take care of them

in his classroom there would be a several animals, despite it having absolutely nothing to do with physics

roger would be the teacher every girl has crush on

and for one school project he dressed up as a woman

and now all boys want him too

divorced a few times, currently has a wife who could’ve been his student

john would be the one who always stays late after classes because students love talking to him

he wouldn’t ever have to speak loudly to silence the class - they just respect him enough to listen

almost all the classes he teaches has his child in it since there are so many of them (children, not classes)

freddie would teach about individualism and encourage others to searching for their true selves and be brave

his husband jim would visit him at work sometimes

all freddie’s students know him and always say “hello mr mercury” and jim reacts with a big smile, even though that’s not his name

freddie is known for his love for cats and every time there’s an occasion, students buy him something connected to those animals

gwil, rami and joe went to japan together once

and they never run out of content reminding everyone once in a while THEY’VE BEEN TO JAPAN, posting pictures on ig

ben doesn’t talk to them for a day if they post anything connected to the trip he couldn’t been on

the group joked about how they’re going to be a rock n’ roll band - rami as a vocalist, joe on bass, ben on drums and gwilym on guitar, allen as the manager and luc as a groupie

they always help each other with homework

and usually play truant together

have the same music taste and organise parties at least once a month

they fight like a married couple (of 6 people) and never longer than two days

go on vacation together

get into trouble together

tease each other

look out for each other

nobody is ever left alone with their problems

generally they’re being that dream group of friends from fanfiction

the only difference is

they are this close in real life

This rising interest in moomins is honestly really sweet

I've been seeing a lot of Moomin content on my timeline and honestly,,, I was really baffled. It was weird seeing this rising interest in it since I grew up on it. They showed Moomin on tv when I was little and I watched it religiously. And seeing all these people from other places in the world watching Moomin is rlly sweet?? Like, I know some people outside scandinavia probably watched it before it became popular on tumblr, but like? I never knew there was a japanese dub! And its really weird seeing it in english since I used to watch it in norwegian. But its really cool to see this rising interest in Moomins and it honestly brings back some fond memories from my childhood.... ( maybe this has been going on for. Along time, but I just noticed this sudden influx of moomin content on my ig and tumblr lately)

#moominvalley #moomin #ramble #ramblings #this is just me airing some thoughts i've had for a while #its really nice seeing people having fun with somethingvi used to love when I wa slittle

Sorry I'm in the Skam fandom and I have to stop you there hehe. VERY few stans the real life actors, due to us who doesn't have the celebrity culture outside of scandinavia may have, the actors were ghosts. There are horrible people on ig to Henriks gf but that is regular obsessive fans. Sure there are probably some shippers here and there but that was definitely not a thing in the fandom. And Skam is a special case when it comes to the onscreen couple, it can't be compared to a regular show.

The Larries who got into Skam definitely had an interest in tinhatting the boys behind the scenes. I’ve got some of their posts on my blog.

The fandom on here handled it well in keeping them chased out and not allowing them to take hold the way they have done with 1D, but the Larries like Bromanceshmomance who became obsessed with it definitely had a tinhatting fixation on both boys together.

Something I haven’t seen them do with things like Moonlight, because they’re not interested in black men being gay behind the scenes as it doesn’t satisfy their fetishes.

HOW TO WATCH SKAM

Since tomorrow s4 starts, I’m gonna try to make a masterpost on how you can watch SKAM. (please tell me if i missed anything!!)

How does SKAM work?

Each episode is released on friday. It consists of a bunch of clips that are released during the week in real time (ex: they are at school on tuesday at 9.26, the clip is uploaded on the website on tuesday at 9.26). Between the clips, screenshots of text messages and/or instagram photos are uploaded: of course you can watch and understand the episode without reading/seeing them, but why would you?

Where can I find these clips/text messages/ig photos?

Everything will be uploaded on the SKAM website.

You can also follow the characters on instagram. The accounts can be found here.

Do we know when something will be released?

No, we don’t. We are never sure because the characteristic of SKAM is that they can upload stuff at random times.

So how can I get notified when something has been released?

There are different ways: you can either refresh the website 24/7, or you can install the SkamNotifi app, or you can go on instagram and follow p3skam_offisiell and turn on the notifications.

I went on the website, but I still can’t watch the clips. There’s the drawing of a lock and it says something about utenfor norge. What does that mean?

Due to copyright reasons, nrk had to geoblock the website, so that people outside of Norway (well now outside of Scandinavia) can’t watch the clips. But don’t worry, the internet has come to our help once again: just follow what this post made by @evenetisak says and you’ll be able to watch them anytime you want.

What if want to watch the clips on my phone?

Well first you have to download the NRK TV app and to bypass the geoblock you can use TunnelBear app (be careful because for free users there’s a 500MB limit per month)

Ok, I did everything you wrote, but still, I don’t speak Norwegian. How can I understand what they say?

Lucky for you, there are many lovely Norwegian blogs that are translating the clips as they are dropped. Of course the translations won’t be available right away: translation takes time. Just be patient and check the #s/kamtranslation or #s/kamupdate (or similar) on tumblr. But usually you can find the translations on @stayinherewithyou, @skamforfaen or @stormboxx.

So now I have the translation, what do I do?

There are many approaches: you can watch the clip first and then read the translation, learn it by heart and then re-watch the clip. Or you can watch the clip while reading the translation. Just be creative!

Will someone upload the episodes subbed?

We call ourselves the “google drive fandom”, what do you think? Yes, of course! You can find all the info here thanks to @skamenglish.

I hope this will help you! And again, please tell me if i need to correct or add something!

On a VERY important side note: always send/show some love to everyone who takes the time to translate clips, texts and everything. They use their free time to do it, no one forced them, so we all need to be very grateful <3

What is a P&I Club, what they do and why we need them in our lives

The hull of a ship is the main body or part of the ship which protects the cargo, machinery, and accommodation spaces of the ship from the weather, flooding, and structural damage and providing strength, buoyancy and hydrodynamic qualities of a vessel..

A sound hull and normal operation of the hull of a ship is key to the safe transportation and delivery of cargo and therefore hull insurance is an important factor for a shipowner..

In the 18th century, a few clubs known as Hull clubs were established by shipowners with the aim to provide insurance cover for physical damage to the ships of their members..

In this arrangement, each shipowner was a member of the club and each member would pay for a share of the total risk that was covered for all the ships owned by all the shipowner members..

But in this “mutual system”, some of the shipowners were taking advantage of the fact that their risk was covered by many other shipowners and started to be lax in their operation of the ship and its conditions..

By this time in the 18th Century, Lloyds Coffee House in London was already the preferred meeting place for many marine underwriters and merchants to discuss commercial and financial interests relating to cargo and marine insurance..

In those days, marine insurance could be provided by individuals known as “underwriters” (simply based on the fact that they wrote their names and signatures under the wordings of the insurance policy)..

Because these underwriters were seen to be more responsible and were able to provide better insurance terms, conditions, rates, claims administration, facilities and organisation, the more responsible shipowners started to insure their vessels with these underwriters based at Lloyd’s Coffee House..

The Hull clubs eventually lost its importance because they ended up only insuring ships that the Lloyd’s underwriters didn’t want to insure (invariably the ships belonging to those irresponsible shipowners)..

Liability for damage to another vessel due to collision or other issues were not recoverable under the marine insurance policies that were in effect those days..

The case of de Vaux v Salvador in 1836 turned out to be a watershed moment for insurance companies and shipowners, due to which the terms of marine insurance policies were extended to cover the liability of the shipowner along with physical loss or damage..

Furthermore, until about 1870, shipowners did not actually need insurance cover for cargo liability because they could rely strongly on the exclusions in their Bill of Lading and exemption clauses in their Contracts of Carriage to escape liability for cargo claims..

However, the sinking of the Westenhope changed all of this because it was deemed that this incident lay outside of the exclusions which made the shipowner liable and the rules did not cover the cargo claim..

In the meantime, with the growth in trade and increase in cargo values, there was also an increase in claims from cargo owners to recover their losses from the shipowners.. This led the shipowners to seek remedy and the first indemnity club was established in1874 to provide insurance cover for liability for loss of or damage to cargo originally called as indemnity cover..

The protecting societies that were underwriting the risks of the shipowner started adding this indemnity cover to their offering and the Protection and Indemnity (P&I) clubs were born..

What do P&I clubs do..??

P&I Clubs provide protection and indemnity insurance to shipowners against third party liabilities and expenses.. These include

Cargo loss or shortage ;

Pollution from the ship and/or its cargo ;

Cargo damage, delay or other responsibility occurring in relation to the carriage of cargo on the entered vessel ;

Loss of life and injury to crew members and/or passengers ;

Wreck removal ;

Collisions with other ships ;

Each Protection and Indemnity insurance cover has its own terms and conditions specific to each underwriter and is an “itemised risk” cover.. This means that the policies cover only specific risks that are itemised in the club’s rules based on the nature of the risk, character and amount of insurance required by the insured..

The role and coverage of P&I clubs have changed drastically since the 20th century as the clubs were under pressure to meet the challenges of the new complex structure of shipping, evolution of ship sizes, environmental impacts creating maritime disasters..

For the past 64 years, carriers had to also assume and cover liabilities for the risk factors associated with the complete movement leg of container shipments, both at sea and land due to containerisation..

The impact that the maritime disasters have had on the environment and the lives of people have resulted in the imposition of stricter regulations like IMO2020, SOLAS VGM and has also resulted in personal liabilities for Ship Captains like in the case of the APL England and the Wakashio..

All these have resulted in the shipowners demanding greater coverage from the P&I Clubs..

International Group P&I Club

Although the rules of individual P&I clubs differ, the scope of cover is more or less similar.. To ensure better cooperation and share the burden of claims, the London Group which was originally a grouping of P&I clubs based in the UK was renamed as the International Group P&I Club (IG).. This brought P&I clubs from Scandinavia, Japan and America under the IG since 1981..

Currently, the IG consists of 13 P&I clubs who between them provide marine liability cover (protection and indemnity) for approximately 90% of the world’s ocean-going tonnage..

As per IG “Through the unique Group structure, the member Clubs, whilst individually competitive, share between them their large loss exposures, and also share their respective knowledge and expertise on matters relating to shipowners liabilities and the insurance and reinsurance of such liabilities.

Each Group Club is an independent, not-for-profit mutual insurance association, providing cover for its shipowner and charterer members against third party liabilities arising out of the use and operation of ships.

Each Club is owned by its shipowner and charterer members, and its operations and activities are overseen by a board of directors, or committee, elected from the membership.

The IG Clubs cover a wide range of liabilities, including loss of life and personal injury to crew, passengers and others on board, cargo loss and damage, pollution by oil and other hazardous substances, wreck removal, collision and damage to property.

The Clubs also provide a wide range of services to their members including claims handling, advice on legal issues and loss prevention, and they regularly play a leading role in coordinating the response to, and management of, maritime casualties.”

The IG which has been accorded observer status at the IMO, is responsible for 3 core functions

The operation of the claims sharing (“pooling”) arrangements and the collective reinsurance of these arrangements ;

Operates as a forum for collecting and exchanging views between the Clubs and their shipowner members on matters relating to shipowners’ liabilities, and insurance of such liabilities; and

Provides a collective industry voice for the purposes of engaging with external stakeholders including intergovernmental maritime organisations, national governments, marine authorities around the world and the shipping and marine insurance/reinsurance industries

So when does the P&I club get involved

In the event of an accident on board (whether at sea or at berth) or any perils, issues relating to immigration and crew matters, illegal anchoring etc, it is expected that the Master of the vessel will notify the respective P&I club under which the ship is covered..

This notification will be the trigger for the P&I club who have offices or correspondents in most of the ports around the world to get involved..

These offices or correspondents (many of them maritime law firms) will then start handling the issue and may appoint surveyors and subject matter experts as required..

P&I club may be involved in many cases such as wreck removal (like the Costa Concordia) or ship disasters like the MOL Comfort or grounding of ships.. The costs, of course, vary based on the nature of the disaster..

The estimated insurance loss on the MOL Comfort, for example, was USD523 million off which $440 million was towards cargo loss and the balance $83 million was for the hull..

The grounding, capsizing and recovery of the Costa Concordia is expected to be one of the most expensive claims in maritime history weighing in at almost $2 billion..

13 Body-Positive Influencers You Should Follow on Instagram http://yourgradgear.com/2017/09/27/13-body-positive-influencers-you-should-follow-on-instagram/

New Post has been published on http://yourgradgear.com/2017/09/27/13-body-positive-influencers-you-should-follow-on-instagram/

13 Body-Positive Influencers You Should Follow on Instagram

Rachel Williams and Lashauna Williams, InStyle

March 10, 2017

This article originally appeared on InStyle.com.

It’s always important to surround yourself with a girl squad that champions you to be your authentic self and accepts you regardless of appearance. As we spend this month celebrating women’s achievements, we present 13 body-positivity advocates to follow on Instagram.

These models, bloggers, activists, and designers have started an important conversation and are getting results. They’re not only lighting up runways during fashion month—they’re taking action to disrupt the status quo in magazines, clothing ads, and beauty campaigns. Whether they are advocating for fashion for women of all sizes or just stepping out of traditional norms, they are putting their curves front and center and looking gorgeous doing so. Not only do their Instagram feeds show off head-turning portfolios, street style, and behind-the-scenes peeks at photo shoots, they also provide inspiration and much-needed laughs as the ladies showcase their wisdom and wit.

1. Denise Bidot (@denisebidot)

Fun fact: I was born on a Friday the 13th 😎 ••• On another note, loving all the new @fabletics Plus items that just got released and the fit is insane (ps-I was not paid to say that)!!!! 🏃🏻‍♀️💜💪🏽 #NoWrongWay #fabletics #curves #loveyourbody #fitnessmotivation #friday

A post shared by Denise Bidot (@denisebidot) on Jan 13, 2017 at 8:50am PST

There Is No Wrong Way to Be a Woman: That’s a slogan that grew into a website and a movement when it was launched last year by this model and single mom to inspire women to love themselves and celebrate their individuality. The former makeup artist has also blazed a trail across the runways at New York Fashion Week over the past two years: The Chromat and Serena Williams collections were her first. On her Instagram feed you’ll find empowering statement Ts, outfits of the day, and pre-photo-shoot pics, but you can also find Bidot in the current Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue in a bikini with her stretch marks unretouched, an implicit message to women to embrace their unique beauty no matter what imperfections they might believe they have.

My clothes are as dark as my roots #timetogetmyhaircolored #blonde

A post shared by Georgina Burke (@missgeoburke) on Jan 13, 2017 at 5:47pm PST

She was the first-ever official face and brand ambassador for the Torrid clothing line. The Aussie model is also featured in the documentary Straight/Curve, which focuses on the female body image and how models are helping redefine society’s beauty standards. Her most treasured posts are of her Wheaten Terrier, Auzwald, but you can also see her working out at the Dogpound in Brooklyn or hanging out with a horse from time to time (she used to compete in equestrian sports) because that’s #howGdoesit.

3. Clémentine Desseaux (@bonjourclem)

Looking forward to 2017 as we’re making plans for an even better tomorrow… 🙏🏼

A post shared by Clémentine Desseaux (@bonjourclem) on Dec 29, 2016 at 11:16am PST

A commercial may have made the freckled beauty what she calls “the first plus girl on TV in France,” but Desseaux’s making strides in other ways too. She co-founded the body-positive advocacy campaign @allwomanproject to show the industry that a group of women from different ethnicities, ages, and sizes can be successfully represented in the same ad campaign. She also runs a brand-strategy agency that helps fashion clients with art direction, production, and brand identity. The highlight of her news feeds? A special #IceCreamDance. The budding chef and foodie offers up dishes from her own kitchen with follow-along videos and recipes, which she posts on her lifestyle blog, Bonjour Clem.

4. Alessandra Garcia Lorido (@alessandragl)

What an honor to walk with my sisters in such an incredible @dolcegabbana show! Thank you to #domenicodolce and @stefanogabbana for welcoming us into the #DGfamily ❤🥀🌹🇮🇹 #DGFW18 #DGRINASCIMENTO

A post shared by Alessandra Garcia Lorido (@alessandragl) on Feb 26, 2017 at 9:51am PST

The daughter of actor Andy Garcia is proud to flaunt the body she got from her mama, as she says in Lane Bryant’s “This Body” campaign. Besides strutting her stuff on Christian Siriano’s fall runway show in New York and Dolce & Gabbana in Milan this year, she is also part of a group of models fighting against the prevalence of eating disorders in their industry along with the Model Alliance and the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA). Another milestone? She was recently tapped for the launch of the “Generations of Wild” beauty campaign by Wet ’n’ Wild makeup. She likes to include post-grooming shots of her dog, Stella, who also has her own IG account, @thegoodlifeofstella. (After all, Stella did co-star in a Tegan and Sara music video for their song “100x.”) Back to Garcia Lorido’s own feed, scroll through candid pics, old and new, of family and friends, like Dakota Fanning.

5. Gabi Gregg (@gabifresh)

Send nudes 👀 happy v-day babes!!!! celebrate yourself today 💕 wearing @bynadiaaboulhosn duster 📸: @lydiahudgens

A post shared by Gabi Gregg (@gabifresh) on Feb 14, 2017 at 12:20pm PST

The former InStyle contributor, style blogger, model, and designer collaborated with Swimsuits for All on a GabiFresh swimwear line in 2013, and her popular “fatkini” collection continues to create buzz with its new campaign, “New Year, Same You.” Her push for high-end designers to recognize women of all sizes has made her a high-profile advocate in the press. Perhaps that’s why Target invited her and two other influencers to consult on the development of its new Ava & Viv collection (which includes sizes from 14 to 30) as well as model for its 2015 fall lookbook. That same year, Asos tapped her to become the face of Asos Curve’s fall campaign and lookbook. In her street style and travel posts, Gregg exhibits a philosophy that “no rules are the new rules.”

6. Tess Holiday (@tessholiday)

Feelin’ total bad girl vibes in this strappy black dress from my #mblmxtessholliday line available now at @penningtons & online! 💘🕶🔥 #effyourbeautystandards

A post shared by Plus Model🎀Mom 🎀Feminist🎠 (@tessholliday) on Jan 24, 2017 at 3:53pm PST

In 2013 she started a body-positive movement with the hashtag #effyourbeautystandards, and two years later landed on the cover of People magazine, which dubbed her the world’s first size-22 supermodel. Last spring, Time magazine put her on its list of the 30 Most Influential People on the Internet. And this past December, Holliday participated in a re-creation of the iconic Victoria’s Secret fashion show with women of all sizes walking the runway in lingerie by Curvy Couture. Now, with her own fashion line, Mblm by Tess Holliday, a collaboration with Canadian retailer Pennington’s, she continues to empower women to feel confident in their own skin.

I think the answer for her birthday today would be “have fun y’all”, but I also think that might be the answer everyday. #rulestoliveby #TBT #whatwouldDollydo #letshavefunok 📸 by @themattpowers Tee by @urbancricketnyc

A post shared by Candice Huffine (@candicehuffine) on Jan 19, 2017 at 12:59pm PST

Huffine shows off her carefree personality with funny logo Ts and silly candids, but don’t be fooled: The Lane Bryant model can also strike a fierce pose … and design. She just collaborated with fashion-forward brand Universal Standard on the “Candice” T for their Tria collection, and her feed is sprinkled with #huffineshallway outfits of the day and #fromwhereistand foot shots of sidewalk art. Several months ago, she launched Project Start (@psyougotthis), an effort to galvanize women to begin a running journey, similar to the one she started about a year ago. Now, after running in some races with the help of other women warriors (and her husband), Huffine is on a mission: to show women that the size of your body does not determine your ability to do physical activities like running. Don’t worry ladies, she knows “you got this!”

Because We’re All Worth It ⭐️A dream come true. It’s never too late 💛 @lorealmakeup 📸 @joeferrucci #worthsharing #truematch

A post shared by Sabina (@thesabinakarlsson) on Jan 12, 2017 at 8:57am PST

With her trademark freckles, curly coif, and curvy frame, Karlsson, who has graced the runways of Addition Elle, J.Crew, and Christian Siriano, began working in the industry as a U.K. size 6 but rejected the rigid body standards that modeling requires. Ten years after she’d been a contestant on Scandinavia’s Top Model, she appeared on the TV show as a guest judge, and last year, she was featured in the book and photo exhibition Diverse Beauty, by photographer Alexi Lubomirski. Making waves outside of fashion, she was named one of the faces of the indie beauty line Milk Makeup, and then Maybelline tapped her to do a campaign for its “Break the Mold” lipstick ads. Karlsson is now one of the faces of L’Oréal Paris’s new True Match “Your Skin, Your Story” campaign. Could her feed filled with backstage beauty headshots have influenced their choices? You be the judge.

9. Precious Lee (@preciousleexoxo)

Vintage vibes at The Plaza👑 Wearing #marinarinaldi @marina.rinaldi @imgmodels #BlackGirlMagic #IMGirls

A post shared by PRECIOUS LEE (@preciousleexoxo) on Dec 22, 2016 at 9:42am PST

This bombshell is sexy, confident, and not afraid to show a little skin. Lee is often spotted modeling for brands like Addition Elle and Christian Siriano, and she is also one of the faces of Lane Bryant’s three most empowering campaigns, “I’m No Angel,” “Plus Is Equal,” and “This Body.” In fact, with the brand’s “This Body” campaign, Lee made history by appearing in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue—it was a three-page spread too. She is also among the models highlighted in the Straight/Curve documentary.

10. Shay Neary (@shadeyshay)

The most terrifying thing is too accept oneself completely… Often, it’s not about becoming a new person, but becoming the person you were meant to be, and already are, but don’t know how to be. #selflove #selfacceptance #soul #hebecameshe #trans #transisbeautiful

A post shared by Shay Neary (@shadeyshay) on Jan 6, 2017 at 9:32am PST

Neary has been modeling for only about a year, but she’s already busting open doors. Last year, she became the first out non-straight-size transgender model to be featured in a clothing campaign with Coverstory, an online e-tailer that curates fashion for women sizes 10 to 28. From Neary’s feed it is clear that she loves red hair, fake nose rings, and her rescue pup pitbull, Pumpkin (now say that five times). Follow her journey as she promotes self-acceptance, the idea that we all deserve to be seen, and the conviction that every story matters.

11. Bo Stanley (@bostanley)

1/99 times its not workout clothes , wetsuits and fitness 🤣 But really , so glad “athleisure” and these one piece rompers that babies wear too are now a suitable way to dress day to day because my body does not like jeans . The thigh game is too strong …Any of you ladies feel me on that one?!! 😝😂 #rompersforthewin #athleteproblems #strongisbeautiful

A post shared by BO STANLEY 🏄🏼‍♀️ (@bostanley) on Jan 10, 2017 at 10:42am PST

Though she never made it past the first night, this surfer, model, and yoga enthusiast earned bragging rights for being the first non-straight-size contestant on The Bachelor. She has appeared in ads and billboards for Lane Bryant, Athleta, and the Vanity Fair sports collection, and is an outspoken critic of the idea that only surfers of a certain size should be sponsored and featured in ad campaigns. Like some of the women on this list, the athlete works out to be healthy and strong. However, she rejects the idea that women should feel pressured to exercise in order to change their body for some beauty ideal. She uses her platform to dispel that myth and promote the notion that “health and beauty come in many shapes and sizes.” Stanley’s feed is all about surfing moves, yoga poses, and a little beachside fun as well, but that was to be expected, right?

12. Danielle Van Grondelle (@daniellevangrondellemodel)

A post shared by Danielle van Grondelle (@daniellevangrondellemodel) on Feb 12, 2017 at 11:47am PST

Like Sabina Karlsson, this Dutch beauty also worked as a straight-size model but found it hard to conform to the industry’s strict standards. Since then she has walked the runways for Rachel Roy and Macy’s. This past November, she spoke about her experience at a special women’s event for Tedx Rotterdam. The self-dubbed sneakerhead and print queen likes to post shoe selfies and look-of-the-day shots of herself in outfits pulled from her extensive wardrobe of geometric, abstract-patterned clothes.

13. Laura Wells (@iamlaurawells)

Never a better time to wear a bra 4 cup sizes to small and a see-through top and give zero f*#!s #donttrythisathome #getyourboobsfitted

A post shared by Laura Wells (@iamlaurawells) on Jan 5, 2017 at 3:36am PST

The muse for a non-straight-size mannequin displayed in major department stores for Australian lingerie company Berlei, this model is also an environmental scientist who is encouraging women to love their bodies as well as Mother Earth. She has designed an eco-friendly curvy line for Koru Swimwear and was featured in the documentary A Perfect 14. Her feed includes snapshots of her adventures hiking, scuba diving alongside seals and manatees, and taking selfies with dolphins. Her self-deprecating humor and zeal for #protectwhatyoulove and #protectyourplayground are contagious.

3. Clémentine Desseaux (@bonjourclem)

A commercial may have made the freckled beauty what she calls "the first plus girl on TV in France," but Desseaux’s making strides in other ways too. She co-founded the body-positive advocacy campaign @allwomanproject to show the industry that a group of women from different ethnicities, ages, and sizes can be successfully represented in the same ad campaign. She also runs a brand-strategy agency that helps fashion clients with art direction, production, and brand identity. The highlight of her news feeds? A special #IceCreamDance. The budding chef and foodie offers up dishes from her own kitchen with follow-along videos and recipes, which she posts on her lifestyle blog, Bonjour Clem.
