My bikini for after lockdown??

I'm mid 50s, 2 stone overweight and about 5'4".

AIBU in thinking I can carry this off when we eventually get out of lockdown? I am thinking sunbathing in local parks, round the outdoor pool at the sports club and of course, family holiday overseas if we are able to travel.

To be honest, its not what I would normally buy but since it keeps popping up in the ads bar on MN, I thought, why the heck not!

Anyone with me? www.isawitfirst.com/products/bikini-set-with-diamond-shape-top-and-cut-out-bottoms-black-jla012398

That bardot one is on upside down surely? Confused

I only voted YABU because tan lines...

Not the point of the thread but imagine having a body like the woman in the ad! I'd never wear clothes if i looked like her.

JaneJeffer · 28/04/2020 16:25

no chocolate, no cake, no biscuits, no crisps, no takeaways, no alcohol. Every. Single. Day.
And I thought our local supermarket was bad.

You would get an awful lots of strap marks from that bikini! In fact I think you would end up looking a bit as it you had been sunbathing underneath a spider's web.

RonObvious · 28/04/2020 16:52

Blimey it barely covers ones fanny!

That's the best thing I've read in some time. Doffs cap

Oh man! Now I've got those vile ads coming up all over the fucking place and this is a shared computer (fortunately not a work one!).

Whinge. It's penguin bollards all over again. Weep.

Actually I had a friend who had the most amazing body (I knew because we went on holiday together a few times), She used to wear straight black clothes all the time (she even wore a black bolero over her wedding dress). Stripped off she was glorious and could have worn any of those but you'd never know.

I would die laughing if I saw someone in a bikini like this! Do people actually wear them on the beach, or do the just lie on a lounger outside their hotel room?

Mind you, I go on holiday to Cornwall where normal beach wear is a wet suit. When the sun comes out you roll it down a bit while you eat some more chips.

@Doggybiccys don't be ridiculous, theres no
LEOPARD PRINT version!

How could you even consider it without leopard print, so plain!!

hesgotit · 28/04/2020 17:15

Oops I think it is leopard print, I was so shocked by the lack of materiial
I didn't notice 😂

PotholeParadise · 28/04/2020 17:24

YANBU! You've finally given me an incentive to put down the chocolate and the crisps. I'm printing it out now and sticking it on the fridge as an inspirational picture as we speak!

Good thing we have lockdown, otherwise it would make things awkward when the in-laws saw my kitchen.

Igmum · 28/04/2020 17:27

And it's 50% off! (I assume that was the 50% with the material on)

Charley50 · 28/04/2020 17:29

Just buy it now and wear it to your zoom work team meetings with pride.

@FallonSwift that's not a man's swimsuit, poor chap has fallen over during hijinks and got the catapult stuck in an unfortunate place.

Serious question, where does it plug in cos pants are held up by a waistband but he's missing most of his which implies there's some place where it ends to retain captivity of his less-than-private parts
