I just broke my record this weekend. After this world premiere comes another. I wasn't expecting it either; this swimwear purchase was just a last-minute decision. When I stumbled on this blog entry, I got saddened that this cool launch slipped under my radar in spite of the fact that I'm just in Eastwood all working hours every week. Curiosity and excitement consumed me after hearing that The Plump Pinay twins designed a handful of curve-friendly swimsuits for I Love Koi. So I dragged my office pals to the Complex Lifestyle Store to check them out. While doing so, I recalled how one of my wave mates who'll be joining us in this quick summer getaway was jokingly regarded as a fashion police ("Bawal mag-ulit ng swimsuit!!!"). Plus, it's my first out-of-town traipse with Waldo so I wanted to look extra extra seksi in his eyes. And the rest is an impulsive buying history.
Although some friends call it a splurge, I consider it cheaper (P2,280) compared to my prior take-homes from Speedo (ranging from P3,000-4,000+). It is indeed a kikay swimwear, but I wished it had maximum support for my twins Suzy and Geno. Based on this photo, I got the impression it was entirely asymmetrical. The strap was a welcome surprise until it made disappearing acts when I paddled away from the shore. I felt sexier when I unhooked the strap, but I noticed that the boyfriend went protective. The design promised full coverage so I was clueless where was his irrational fear of nip slip was coming from. Yes, it is a good buy!
Now here's the part where I saturate you with my uninspired poses. Yeah, I wanted to treat you to varied poses like the ones in Camiguin, but I had to plunge to the waters right away. Having your monthly period at the beach sucks big-time. Sighs.
Seksi back sana...until the strap got tangled!
Too dressy to get wet? Watch me!
Upon seeing The Plump Pinay's swimwear designs online, my officemates (men and women alike) expressed that this particular design I fancy and this one were too dressy to be worn and get soaked in the beach. One guy said I can wear either of the two and just slip on my denim jeans and show up in the office. Well, I did get this swimsuit drenched. And I have this photo to prove it! Haha!
