So what will you be wearing on the beach this year?

[ThePhantomPlopper]

Am searching for swimwear.

It's hard.

Those JL ones are nice. Is the spotty one more grey than green then? I can't carry off grey.

its not at all green
nutta

( we are talking abotu the vodkatini?)

Another one jealous of those Freya bikinis.

I am a bit wary of investing in an expensive bikini.

Did it 2 years ago, foolishly, while in early pregnancy with DS2.

The bikini top is now way too big [wail].

Is mix and match out of the question (ie buy a new top although I'll never find one that matches properly)?

The do sell them cheaper on ebay - maybe seconds et - all new though, i have bought that way before.

Not enough norkage for the Freyas unfortunately - the bras & honey site got me all excited as it claimed to come up with bikinis for a 32C but then they all start at 32DD (not in my wildest dreams!)

Actually colour/pattern-wise I need something like this but it has such terrible reviews that I'm not risking it.

look at sea folly too

Oh I saw some nice Seafolly stuff on figleaves (and they deliver to France!) but the reviews were by people aged 41-60...

Maybe it's just because they are the only ones with enough money to pay for it?

begrudingly gives help to small norkers

sea folly

Yes those are nice.

Unsure about whether bright yellow and pasty/freckly go well together but good place to start.

Now regretting turning down holiday nr Bordeaux in favour of UK and Normandy.

Wetsuit could be more appropriate

Joggler - You are fab. Just ordered the Sea folly yellow one.

Ok - I expect a full report back please TPP!

Will do.

well?

I will be wearing a wetsuit.And if I don't shift the stone of baby weight I still ain't got rid of then I will look like a black pudding,but that is preferable to the horrors of a bikini.

Sprayed myself with st tropez last night and tried black bikini again and I still like it Good for oldies I think

the chinesey print that they also have in next arrived yesterday = very nice but cups are small imo- haev reordered in a bigger to stop spillage here

I would look huge in that!

why?

I don't think my stomach is up to that contrasting band it would draw too much attention to it.The bra looks like a one boober too!

I luuuurve my saress - am an absolute convert!

i too thought I could make one for much less money but have actually struggled to find suitable fabric

this is the one I have just bought, but with the shorts not briefs
