27 Nov Jump Into Summer with #CossieConfidence

Written by: Sequins and Sand team

Summer holidays are upon us and therefore the great Aussie tradition of hitting the beach and the pool. Time to be with those we love, time to clear our head-space and time to enjoy the sunny days and warm nights.  Well that’s the plan anyway. But for many beautiful women, that plan is not always put into action – not as wholeheartedly as we would like…

The seemingly simple act of putting on a cossie to go for a swim with the kids or a carefree walk on the beach is far from simple, for some it can be incredibly stressful.

‘People are staring at me’ ‘They think I look horrible’ ‘What was she thinking’  

The negative thoughts roll in like the waves on the beach, but these are self-limiting beliefs. Perceptions. Born from a whole host of reasons, unique for each and everyone who feels that way.

For over 10 years now, Anita McLachlan Founder of Sequins and Sand has been helping women find the right swimsuit through her online store. In that time she’s had thousands of conversations with women who feel tortured by the thought of putting on a swimsuit. She’s been helping them to boost their beach confidence, their Cossie Confidence. Her passion and the passion of many others formed the Cossie Confidence Crew. A crew of every day women who give up their time to encourage other women to overcome their body image concerns in a swimsuit, so that they can make precious memories with those they love the most, each and every summer. And that’s what it’s all about, right?

Make this summer, your summer!

The team at Sequins and Sand are calling you to Jump Into Summer, embrace the body you have, put your swimsuit on and make precious memories with your friends and family.

Your family love you for who you are and want nothing more than to have you playing Marco Polo in the pool, jumping over waves and building sand castles at the beach. They don’t want you to hold back or see you missing out on the fun. They want you to be present and care-free.

If it’s been a while since you’ve felt good in a cossie then let the team at Sequins and Sand help you.

Anita and her team have created a video which shares inspiring stories of how women of different shapes, sizes and ages can confidently wear their cossies. Watch the video here.

The stories of these women are shared for your reading. Their commitment to you, genuine. Their efforts are driven by the desire to make a difference. They receive messages every week from women who found their confidence and are enjoying summer with their families, their way.

This summer we want YOU to embrace your body in a cossie and what better time to start than the first day of summer, December 1, which happens to be on a Sunday. Perfect!
