Posting here for traffic.

I want to start swimming but I only have this one piece but I don't know if it's appropriate for the local swimming pool. The cut outs don't show anything but the front one is down to my belly button. I only usually swim holiday so my other option is a swim dress.

Is that Jennifer Saunders

I really like the all in one ones that have shorts at the bottom but that's just me.

PinkSkyAtNightAngelDelight · 24/04/2018 13:45

Don’t you just end up with sunburnt shapes all over?

PositivelyPERF · 24/04/2018 13:47

Hahahaha 😂

Sorry OP, but by the time you get that thing on, you’ll have no time to swim!

flowerslemonade · 24/04/2018 13:49

My friend was once barred for wearing shorts over a swimming costume, but men can wear long shorts etc, sometimes I think the rules are odd.

Wear speedos- say you identify as a man.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 24/04/2018 13:57

The lady Borat costume Grin The big moustache just makes it.

NoFuckingRoomOnMyBroom · 24/04/2018 13:58

Love the one Jena posted but would look an utter knob with those tan lines-I also no longer have the body for it either but we'll just ignore that... Grin

PositivelyPERF · 24/04/2018 14:02

Ouch! ILostItInTheEarlyNineties I automatically reached down to pull my knickers out of my twat, when I saw that! 😖

Ohmydayslove · 24/04/2018 14:04

Dear god if it’s any of those op I take it back everyone will look and judge you. Those are horrific

happypoobum · 24/04/2018 14:05

nineties Where the fuck did you get that photo of me???? Angry

AnnieAnoniMouser · 24/04/2018 14:07

We can go together and balance each other out! I wear a swimming costume with men’s shirt swim shorts over the top and a rash shirt 🤣

If you arrived in the 1st or 3rd ones I’d be worried about your mental health. If you arrived in the second one I’d be wondering if you were there to swim or pick up a lifeguard! ... you’d be quite entitled to wonder why the fuck I had two layers of swimwear on 😂

Wear what makes YOU feel comfortable, sod what anyone else thinks.

AnnieAnoniMouser · 24/04/2018 14:08

Men’s SHORT not shirt. Fecking iPad.

Juells · 24/04/2018 14:09

@ILostItInTheEarlyNineties 😂

What the heck is a swim dress, and why would anyone wear one?

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 24/04/2018 14:09

Sorry happy that's actually me just popping down to my local pool in my on trend one piece. If you've got it flaunt it eh? I just ignore all the envious glances Grin
Can't believe we've got the same costume.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 24/04/2018 14:12

I think a swim dress is a normal swimming costume with a little skirt attached? It's supposed to cover your bum I think but surely it floats in water and clings to you when wet? I'm not sure how practical it would be.

user1495884620 · 24/04/2018 14:15

Why am I clinking on these links? I am going to get nasty swimsuit ads following me around now! Grin

silver1977 · 24/04/2018 14:19

I have literally just spat my tea out as I scrolled down and saw those pics! Grin

Tinkobell · 24/04/2018 14:19

Ooooouuch! Eye watering! Obviously at 47 and 2 kids I have the body of a goddess and could don anyone of them. However, I'd have anxieties over Nickys M's stringy things getting entangled in the mechanisms of the wave machine at my local pool resulting in death by fashion malfunction! 😬

Shadow666 · 24/04/2018 14:22

😂

Tinkobell · 24/04/2018 14:25

Mmmm. I think some taming and trimming could be required in the downstairs dept otherwise I'd have side burns to make Bradley Wiggins proud! 😂

Juells · 24/04/2018 14:31

That last one...words fail. I see she's adjusted it to one side to cut down on the uncomfortable-ness.

maggienolia · 24/04/2018 15:07

How about this one?

OneStepSideways · 24/04/2018 15:21

No I think it's very inappropriate for an indoor pool. It looks like something you'd wear in the bedroom or to an BDSM dungeon!
