Bikini Bash
When at the pool, I have a lot of time to look at swim suits. For me, the pool is a time for magazines (as is when I stay at home, but I tend to indulge myself) and I was surprised to find Glamour and Elle completely full of bikinis, monokinis and one pieces. I mean, yes , it is summer, but I was a little surprised, and not in a bad way. So, because of this, my "destiny" was to find my future swimsuit. Yes, there were many disaster pieces, and I did not once see that adorable scalloped edge Chloe two-piece, but I did see variations. Many went for the mix and match that Victoria's Secret is known for, with black bandeau tops and crazy printed and stringy bottoms, but a few I picked out quite meticulously had nice pieces. One was a caramel color, and was covered in eyelet and ADORABLE, but now I need to find it. The others I found were nice, with deep pearlescent colors such as mandarin, fuchsia, and cerulean, but I had one like that last year, and I want something more girly. And I found the perfect one. I went to England in 8th grade for a school trip, and all through the Heathrow terminal was an adorable store called Accessorize, owned by the company Monsoon. I have always been a faithful Monsoon shopper- in Australia I would get little shirts and dresses there, but it's always exciting to find an accessories store, branched from such a wonderful company. My dad is going to Heathrow as a stop on his way to Abu Dabi in Saudi Arabia, and on my wishlist is the cutest little oriental blossom swimsuit. Just perfect for what I was looking for.
