Me. In a swimming costume.

I recently bought this fabulous swimming costume from Evans. I hadn't bought a swim suit in ages, and really liked this bandeau style one. The suit has sticky elastic (a bit like a strapless bra) at the top, so I feel safe and secure in it. I bought this in a size 20, cup F/G, and would say it is true to size.



I should have really fake tanned before this picture. It is scary how white I am! Please ignore the dog bum in the photo too. I am looking after my sisters dog (My dogs mummy!) at the moment, and she has to be in EVERYTHING, bless her!


I like the slight ruching on the tummy area, and a bonus to this swim suit is it has a control panel on the tummy, so if you are worried about that area, it sucks you in a bit, without feeling uncomfortable.


I admit that I haven't had chance to swim in it yet. I was hoping it might make it's first appearance in Cornwall when I was holidaying there last week, but the weather was awful!


Overall, I am really happy with this swimming costume. The fit is spot on, the material is nice, and 'the girls' feel secure!


What kind of swimming costume have you gone for this summer?

I fake tanned on Saturday for a wedding do. The top half of me is fine, but my legs and feet are like streaky bacon.

I've got a black one with zebra side panels that I got from Bon Prix.

You look gorgeous! And also there's nothing wrong with having super white skin, I'm the palest milkiest person around :P I have a bikini from La Senza which is great but I'm not confident enough to wear it and a beautiful retro style one which looks gorgeous but isn't that supportive of the bosoms :P I never go swimming anyway...
