This is another quick swimsuit post from Turkey – again, another ‘retro’ style one! I do actually wear ‘normal’ bikinis too, as in string triangle bikinis, although I tend to go more for retro shaped ones, like a Sainsburys red and white gingham halterneck style. I absolutely adore this swimming costume – the print is so cute and the shape is so vintage. But unfortunately I find very few occasions to wear it because when you’re in a hot country, you just want to be as cool as possible, and this doesn’t make it easy!! I ended up wearing it as a top with a pair of shorts when we went to the beach one day, so I actually didn’t even get it wet!! It might be useful for my next holiday though – mid-August I’m going to Canada and America with my family in a camper (RV) to travel from Vancouver, down to Oregon and back up again. We tend to do a lot of river and lake swimming, which is always a bit chillier than the pool, so it might come in handy!

Remember I mentioned my sore mouth last week and I went to the dentist where he cut off a part of my gum? Well that soreness has continued and got worse, so I was back today and now I’m on antibiotics, fun… It’s just a bit of gum over my wisdom tooth that’s trapping it down and getting infected, so not the nicest thing ever, but hopefully it’ll be feeling a bit better soon!

And you guys, I have about a thousand (slight exaggeration..) sets of outfit photos for you, but just one more left from Turkey, then I’ll be back to normal outfit posts, promise!!

But seriously, I need more of these swimsuits: take a look, red polka dot, striped bikini and my personal favourite, the gingham bikini and swimsuit.
