Style AIBU - to get a bikini?

Toffeelatteplease · 21/06/2015 13:59

I'm a curvy 16-18 I've been smaller, I've been bigger, my body may not be great . But it's mine, it still goes in and out in the right places and I feel like I should enjoy it regardless.

AIBU to get a bikini? Suggestions to look at appreciated as well

YANBU. It's your body. Wear what you like!

Do it! Whatever style you are comfortable in. I'm probably at my fattest ever and I will be, big pants et al. Smile

I am about same size as you and had never worn one and got one in my mid thirties from Bravissimo kind of a structured one and loved it, felt great. Probably would wear it again in some situations

Toffeelatteplease · 21/06/2015 16:24

Oooo I like the idea of a properly structured one

God just bloody do it. I'm an 18 too, I always wear a bikini with high waist bottoms and bra sizes top. Much much more flattering in me than a one piece and when we go on hols I just wear the bottoms anyway.

Definitely get one! Figleaves sale is on and they have an awesome selection.Just make sure you know your correct bra size as per all the lovely bra lady threads and size up on the bottoms as they are not very generous.

Mine are from next and they fit like a dream. I am an E cup

I go in and out in all the wrong places and still wear one. One pieces are always too short for me so I end up hoiking them up/down constantly. Yes to figleaves and getting a bra sized top if possible.

It's all about confidence. I'm a 10 and wouldn't wear one. Mind you I am over 50 and haven't worn one in 25 years! Go for it if you feel good in it.

dementedpixie · 21/06/2015 18:18

I wear one - size 20 bottoms and 36GG top. panache or curvy kate

MamaLazarou · 21/06/2015 18:22

Yes, go for it, OP.
