London Fields Lido

I'm on a health kick at the moment, and because I don't like running (small attention span) and I don't want to join a gym as (commitment issues), I decided to start swimming again. I went to London Fields lido for the first time last night and I loved it!



My big dilemma though was whether I should opt for a bikini or a swimming costume to swim lengths!? Now, my thinking was that a bikini, which wins hands-down in the style stakes against my school girl speedo number, might be deemed inappropriate by fellow swimmers. So, I opted for a sensible one-piece, only to find that the whole pool was full of halter bikinis (and even a few bandeaus) leaving me scuttling in and out of the pool in shame. Next time I know which look I'll be sporting.

Hennes bikinis

Every London bus that seems to pass me has a bevy of bronzed beauties (including Daria Werbowy, Julia Stegner, Erin Wasson, Sasha Pivovarova and Lara Stone) in H&M’s bikinis, from its summer collection, on the side of it. I simply love these bikinis, not only are they bargainous, prices start from £3.99, but they are simple, available in a selection of cool colours and safari and ethnic patterns and also have lots of bandeau styles which I love. I always find difficult to find bandeau bikinis unless you’re on a beach in Rio. Bandeau tops are perfect for ease, style and most importantly limit tan marks – bonus. I’m rushing down to Oxford Street on my lunch today to pick up a selection before they sell out! To see the models speak of their favourite summer experience see their video courtesy of H&M.
