I'm English, ok. As a result, I don't feel comfortable wearing a bikini unless I have what is known as a 'bikini body'. I don't have a bikini body. Far from it. Actually, before I went to Ilhabela the other week, I didn't even own a bathing costume because I'm that insecure about showing skin.
Anyhoo, my girlfriend managed to convince me before hitting the beach to at least buy a sports bra, a vest and a pair of bicycle shorts. One trip to C&A later and I was sorted.
We spent the entire day on the beach on the first day and that experience brought me to the following conclusion: a bikini is the only way to go in Brazil. I was very hot the whole day and Kelly spent the whole time pointing out women the size of whales wearing bikinis. "See? She's wearing a bikini... so is she... and her.... I'm fat, I'm wearing a bikini," she said.
It was about 28 degrees and I was uncomfortably hot, god help me in the summer when it hits 40 on a hot day and I'm wearing bloody bicycle shorts.
