Amongst them is also curvy style lover Vicky, who best describes her figure as ”midsize”, measuring at 5’2” and 180lbs.

The young woman, from Chicago, the US, regularly promotes body positivity on her page, where she also helps ”you love your body”.

However, the 30-year-old, whose message has won her close to 40k followers, recently admitted it wasn’t an easy journey – and she hasn’t always appreciated her curves.

”I would admire those who wore bodycon dresses but I never felt confident enough to pull it off,” she bravely opened up in a post on Instagram.

”Or if I was being true to myself, I never thought I was *beautiful* enough to wear it.

”Seeing others like me, midsize girls […] showed me that I can wear bodycon dresses like them.

”What are you waiting for? Go rock that outfit you’ve been wanting to wear!”

Vicky, who recently celebrated her wedding anniversary in Las Vegas, also added that she won’t be hiding behind any loose and oversized garments, whether that means showing her belly or not.

”I love bodycon dress despite what fashion rules say about me wearing them.”

According to the dark-haired beauty, even her family struggled to accept her appearance growing up, calling young Vicky ”too fat”’ – and sadly, things haven’t changed.

”I still have memories of family commenting that I’m fat when it’s the first time they’ve seen me in a long while and it still happens.

”I wish my younger self knew not to listen to these external commentaries because beauty standards are so subjective.

”I instead rely on my own self-love for myself. I know what’s going on in my life. I know what’s brought me to where I am today and I know what I’m capable of.”

But although her platform has helped many, spreading positivity, Vicky has also been targeted by brutal trolls who compare her to a ”midsize van”.

Another chimed in: ”Midsize? Your BMI is 33. I know bmi isn’t accurate but that’s only for people who work out you obviously don’t.”

Someone else added: ”That’s plus size.”

”You look like a HIPPOPOTAMUS,” a fourth shared a brutal remark, as kind-hearted users flocked to hit back at the keyboard warriors.

”Wth is with these comments? You’re adorable and I’m loving the confidence,” a fan was baffled.

Another was just as stunned, writing: ”Yall are f***ing mean!

”She looks good! and she’s confident and happy. I wish I had half her confidence.”

ARSENAL have been “offered the chance” to sign Chelsea forward Raheem Sterling on loan, according to reports.

The English forward, 29, has been told by Blues boss Enzo Maresca that he will not play if he stays at Stamford Bridge.

Manchester United are linked with a swap deal for Sterling with Jadon Sancho going the other way.

But now Arsenal have entered the fray as a potential destination for the ex-Liverpool and Manchester City man.

According to ESPN, Chelsea have offered Sterling to Arsenal as they attempt to offload his £325,000-a-week wages.

Fabrizio Romano is also reporting Arsenal are “discussing internally” about the move.

Chelsea are open to a loan deal as Sterling has three years left on his contract.

Speaking about Sterling earlier this week, Maresca said: “Raheem is a fantastic person, a fantastic guy, he trains very well. The only thing is; every manager has different ideas.

“I said in terms of the kind of winger, he is not one I like but it doesn’t mean nothing if he is not a good player. I think the history and numbers speak for Raheem.

“My advice – he knows exactly what he has to do. He doesn’t need my advice.”

He went on to add: “I prefer to be honest with the player, with Raheem, I’ve been exactly the same.

“The ones who are not involved, they are all players who are not going to be involved and they don’t get any minutes in case they stay.

“I don’t know what happens, when the window closes. We will see who is here and who is not here.

“The only thing I can say is the ones who are going to get minutes are the ones who I think can help us.”

Sterling, who has 19 goals and 12 assists in 81 games for Chelsea, arrived in a £50million deal from Man City two years ago.

The news linking him to Arsenal comes just hours before the window closes on Friday evening.

And Chelsea have already suffered a blow on Deadline Day after it was reported Al-Ahli are closing in on BOTH their striker targets, Victor Osimhen and Ivan Toney.

However, it is understood the Saudi Arabian side do not have the funds or space for the two forwards.

This could mean Chelsea still have a chance of signing one of them as their summer spending threatens to exceed £250m.
