It's spring - got to buy a bikini before they stop selling them in summer!

As much as I hate to do this, where is a good place to buy a bikini. Year after year in summer (shock horror), I try to buy a bikini but shops have either sold out and only have neon mesh string bikinis left or have moved onto autumnal clothes. So I am ahead of the game! Any suggestions of good places to get a bikini?

Working in retail, I discovered that shops are always 1 season ahead. This is because people browse and look around at the trends and styles in advance before they buy what they need. But you can buy a bikini literally anywhere like you said it's still spring. Just don't wait until summer.

I'm always leaving things like this too late! I did get a bikini from Monsoon a few years ago which has stood the test of time Smile

Do they really, Meekon?

It wouldn't occur to me to look for summer stuff before it was warm and I could wear what I'd bought. I miss out all the time because when I want summer things in July the shops are full of coats and jumpers. Ridiculous.
