As bright as I am in my dress sense,I have to admit that
there is one part of my wardrobe where I usually stick to black and simple; i.e.
my swimwear. Yup if you see me at the beach, I’ll be the one with plain black
bikini and an over-the-top floppy hat to make up for that lack of my colour and
character in my swimwear!
Somehow and somewhere in the past few years, I concluded that
when it comes to swimwear, less is more. Not in terms of fabric of course (I’m
no fan of Brazilian bikinis!!!) but more to do with style and embellishment. Although
rightfully suitable for summer, I feel that too much patterns and ornaments tend
to make swimwear less flattering, unpractical and uncomfortable especially when
I’m using the swimming pool in my residence. It just feels awkward.
But black is not ideal too so it was time to find an
alternative especially that I’m planning on visiting the nearby islands for a
relaxing holiday sometime soon! And it was home-grown label Mileti which
finally got it right in terms of chic and functional swimwear.
Love this Mileti statement one-piece which brings the colour blocking trend to the beach! |
