And these are the swimwear that will accompany me through this summer! 

Triangl dupes are from Aliexpress.com and they are perfect dupes for the real ones (neoprene material and great fit).

The white onepiece is also from Aliexpress.com and the black bikini is from H&M. (All under 15€).

This month I was obsessed with dresses!

The most convienient and pretty piece of clothing for hot summer days - that will eventually come, even though the weather in Greece got crazy and it feels like Autumn.

All dresses above are from Sheinside and they have all arrived and they are exactly like the pictures ! 

The sandals and the knit jacket/kimono are from Zara.com!

xoxo

I see them everywhere!

These gladiator sandals will be all over this summer!

And can be found at most retail stores at all price points.

The ones above are ZARA and MANGO (89€ and 20€ each) - can also be found online.

We are so close to the time that we will start going to the beach!! Yeah!

And the perfect cover-ups are definetely all these amazing lace dresses (from sheinside.com).

Super affordable, so stylish and so unbelievably sexy!

Really, I cannot choose! 

I want them all!

This is my favourite one. Yeah!! It IS neoprene! Completely like the original one! Yeah again!!!

Love the colour! Love the material! But (there is a but) the sizing of the top is a little bit off. 

I bought the medium one and it fits a C to D cup and maybe more! This top is for enormous boobage.

It does not look bad when I wear them ( I am a B cup) and I believe that even the top of the small size would still be big...

I still love it though!

A detail to tell you is that it has on the zipper the Triangl logo. So maybe this store is the wholesaler of the brand.

And for everyone interested the webpage to find it is the following one from Aliexpress: 

Orange neoprene bikini

Oh, this one!

How much I adore this colour! This bikini is also from Aliexpress. 

I was absolutely certain that this item would also be an exact dupe from the original triangl bikini but I was wrong... 

Thankfully, I was not too disappointed! It is NOT a neoprene bikini, even if the site was stating so and had photos of neoprene items to display. The fabric is lycra, like a normal bikini. 

The design though is very close to the original one - they got the exact same colour -yeaah! But again the sizing is off. 

This time I was more aware of what to expect for the sizes and to be sure I bought 2 bikinis -one small and one medium. So I could mix and match what sizes I needed and then give away the other to a friend. 

It was a very cheap bikini. For the two piece (top-bottom) I paid €6,50. 

So for both the cost was €13,00. 

The top of the small piece is better but again is quite big! :O

And I need the medium for the bottom part! 

This item is not listed anymore to Aliexpress website but the seller was this one:

Mint bikini seller

And the last one was the first that arrived and I had shown it to you again to a previous post.

This was a big disappointment but since it was my first bikini order 

I was super excited that I liked it either way! 

It is a blue bikini not mint, like it was showing at the listing of the item, and obviously not neoprene.

 But it is a similar design to the original. 

And of course with a big top like all of them! 

I have repurchased the small one from the same seller to mix again the sizes in order to use it and not keep it stored in my closet.

The ebay page of the item - for anyone interested is:

Blue bikini from ebay

I promised..... I really really promised that I will not buy a swimsuit this year...

I have so many already, a lot of them never even worn to the beach, I will not be on vacation for many days this year ( a lot of obligations to handle during this summer to able to be away from home for long)  so I was absolutely certain that my promise will be kept.

And during my boring nights at home surfing on ebay I spotted this listing.

And I completely/ totally fell in love with this item.  (Mint neoprene bikini)

I knew that it reminded me of something I had seen before but I could not tell what.

And I remembered that it looked like the bikinis that all bloggers wore last year from Triangl swimwear (this Australian swimwear and underwear brand bombarded with deliveries to bloggers all over the world  - and with that I realized how influentiantial all these girls are and how big this whole blogging thing has become).

With second thoughts not stopping me, it was added to my basket and paid in a flash!

Yes yes, this purchase was completely impulsive and not researched thoroughly as I always do with Chinese orders - sorry China but ebay is the only place that brings out the racist in me.

(The value for money struggle for items from Chinese market.)

And I am so sorry that I am sometimes right... 

I realized that the photos are too good to be true because these are the actual photos from Triangl swimwear 2014 lookbook..... Steal!!!! 

They looked so ebay - realistic. (That the seller took them to show the quality and details up close.) 

OK,I am already disappointed about this purchase and I am ahead of myself and I hope hope hope that I am overreacting!!!!

The item was sent yesterday by the seller and probably it will take 3-4 weeks to arrive.

I have double/triple crossed my fingers to receive an item similar to this pic!!

And the sizing chart to be as accurate as possible! 

Two things too much to ask???

p.s. This post will be followed up by actual pics as soon as this bikini arrives!!

Actual photos of this item need to be out there!

p.s.2. If my cross finger power will work (Please be a 10-12 uk size mint bikini of tolerable quality !!!!!! ------ super hope!) it would be an amazing bargain since the Triangl item retails for 65€ when this dupe is at 15€ on ebay!

*****Update 2:::: The item arrived!!

And you can see it in the picture below!

The color is not mint (like the picture) but blue (very disapponting description).

The fabric is not neoprene but lycra.

The sizing is a bit off but it fits me - more or less.

(I bought the Medium and the top is big and the bottom is a little small.

I am a B cup and this top fits a full C cup.

And my hips are 95cm and this is a little tight.)

But I do like the item and even though there are some small issues I will wear it. 

It is cute and I like the design!

Hope this photo helps!

xoxo

Love this view!

My mom found my name bracelet that I have since I was 5!!

And it still fits me!

Thank god I bought it big back then!

Memories.....
