The last time I wore a bikini I was 26, I'm now 43 and it was before my husband knew me, so he's been moaning about it. He reckons he'll buy me an eternity ring if I wear one this summer! I'm up for a bet but I don't know where that'll be as I have nosey neighbours!!

Arte you all brave enough to wear a bikini when it's Summer?

Louise if you've got the figure go for it!
Personally I haven't, I'm now 58 and haven't worn one since my twenties. I'm still laughing about my sister in law asking me quite seriously last year if I'd had my belly button pierced!!

I think I've hit the age where, after 2 children, I'd rather everything was left to the imagination. My oh is not a willing jewellery buyer though, so he must be serious and feel left out! Poor love!

I wore bikinis up to 2006 when I was 56, I have several in my drawer but I can't wear them now since my mastectomy last year :((( So I'm (almost) in agreement with Samantha...I don't think it matters what age you are, so long as you are reasonably trim, go for it.

In Lanzarote and Tenerife there are very few one piece swim suits in evidence. Most people wear two pieces (not usually brief bikinis although I have seen a few thongs (ugh). I often wear a tankini (& I have a lot to hide! Have also worn a two piece, people don't look at your shape and don't worry about your age. wouldn't wear one in UK though.
