I’m a gran-of-12 & rock sexy bikinis and busty tops… trolls tell me to ‘dress age appropriate’ but I just don’t care
A NAN-OF-12 who wears skimpy bikinis and revealing tops has hit back at people who demand her to ”dress age appropriate”.
Stylish grandma Debbie Podzimek took to TikTok to explain why she didn’t care about what haters have to say about her sexy wardrobe.
The stunning blonde, who is a proud mum to seven kids, has only started posting on the platform recently, with the majority of her clips showing off her enviable figure in teeny garments.
As well as posing in figure-hugging midi dresses, flattering summer frocks with a leggy display and off the shoulder tops, Debbie likes to soak up the sun in tiny bikinis.
The nan-of-12, who runs three businesses, has also been very open about her breast implants which she decided to get after nursing her children for over a decade.
Although Debbie did admit the boob job – her third now – ”may be a little overboard”, the fashionista said she wasn’t going to remove the implants despite what critics have to say.
”I’m gonna do me. I’m a people pleaser but this is one thing I just do my own thing,” she hit back at the criticism in a more recent video.
It’s not just Debbie’s plastic surgery makeover that trolls comment on – the youthful-looking nan has also faced harsh comments about her style.
You only live once – why don’t you just feel your best, look your best, support each other?

According to the realtor, 63, she was recently told to ”dress age appropriate” – a remark she’s now hit back and shared her thoughts on her page.
Looking glamorous in a sheer floral top, as well as skin-tight jeans with her toned belly on show, the tanned nan noted ”the whole thing” simple didn’t make ”sense” to her.
”So, we’re gonna put ourselves in a box and dress 40, 50, 60, 70, whatever it is, like there’s a rule book on this?
”You only live once – why don’t you just feel your best, look your best, support each other?” Debbie said, urging people to be kinder to one another.
Luckily for the Illinois-based business owner, who said she’d ”love” to see a book with all the fashion rules, there was heaps of support amongst viewers.
Close to a whopping 8k viewers flocked to share their opinion on the video, which has been viewed close to 700k times in just a week.
Echoing Debbie’s thoughts, thousands reckoned that the haters were simply envious, with one writing: ”That’s a line that comes from jealous people.
”Wear whatever makes you happy.”
Why the latest fashion trends are a disaster for real women’s bodies
Fabulous‘ Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend explains why she, as a size 10, is struggling to add this season’s latest trends to her wardrobe.
“If if I was to wear the season’s styles, I’d look stupid.
My job as Fashion Editor is to know what’s hot and what’s not, what’s in shops and what people are wearing. But this season, stores seem flooded with looks I find unwearable — and I’m sure many more ‘normal’ people do, too.
For example, I wouldn’t be caught dead in the love handles-baring low-rise jeans that are dominating the High Street.
And I recently saw a picture of the stunning Sydney Sweeney in a pair — with boyish-looking boxers poking out the top, and matching bandeau crop top. Despite her beauty, I thought the White Lotus star looked daft.
And I had to ask myself: ‘What reinforcements has she got holding up her boobs?’
The other thing irritating me about fashion is, if it’s not open at the back, it’s open at the front.
While I’m all for body confidence and wearing what you want, there’s no way I’m standing on a packed train, or visiting the office, with my stomach, bra and boobs on show. I’d hate to put anyone off their corn flakes.
Right now, Zara is the worst offender. When its models aren’t crouching awkwardly on top of kitchen stoves they are wearing crocheted flared trousers and spaghetti-strapped sequin crop tops.
I’m a 33-year-old M&S woman. From underwear to outerwear, I love them and look to them every week to see what’s trending.
They’re really nailing waistcoats at the moment. Simple and stylish, they’ve got them in cotton, linen and a rainbow of colours.”
Another agreed, adding: ”Dress the way you want ! You look amazing.”
A fellow senior fashion fan chimed in: ”I had a friend tell me I’m too old to wear distressed jeans – I’m 62…I’ll wear whatever I damn well want!”
Someone else, meanwhile, was inspired by Debbie, who’s won more than 10k loyal fans.
”When I’m your age I’m going to dress like you and walk around with the grandkids. You look Great!”
