My Holiday Wardrobe

(39 Posts)

Good evening dear Gransnetters. Mr.B and I have not had a holiday for 3 years thanks to Covid. My holiday wardrobe is very outdated and much of it seems to have shrunk and is now too small. We are spending a long weekend on the west coast of Scotland in September and I need to buy a few things.

Do you think that this will be suitable beachwear? I shouldn’t need to worry about midge bites in September.

All suggestions/opinions welcome.

Lots of people have fat noses after a Saturday night in the fleshpots of Stranraer grin

(We’re not actually staying in Stranraer but it’s the nearest big town).

Trés chic Nannagarra! grin. Are the folk of Stranraer ready for this?

Stranraer means The Fat Nose in Gaelic.

Today's useless bit of information ?

That is such a lovely monokini. A long as you don’t get a camel toe you’ll be fine ?

Nannagarra Sat 20-Aug-22 22:35:37

There’s only one way to find out, Blossoming.

This?

Nannagarra Sat 20-Aug-22 21:35:59

If it becomes chilly?

Nannagarra Sat 20-Aug-22 21:35:35

This for the daytime?

But with that much bling at least she will be worth her weight in gold.

Blossoming ???

I think as much gold as you can wear Blossoming medallion, anklets and bracelets. You may require double armbands to swim as it’ll be heavy.

Blossoming Sat 20-Aug-22 19:52:49

I think I’ve found the perfect outfit with midge protection for the face too!

Marydoll good to see you posting your usual nonsense ☺️ I was concerned when you were missing from the Good Morning thread

Thanks, wasn't good this morning GB, a bit better now. Doing catch up!

I would have considered it but feel it would leave unsightly tan marks and would have to remove any scissors within reach of OH.

Your swimsuit looks fine for a deserted highland beach. However I wouldn't risk it in hotter climes - too many tender bits would be exposed to sunburn.

Marydoll Sat 20-Aug-22 19:33:37

I assumed that you were bringing one anyway! Oh I forgot to mention the bed socks!!!

Blossoming Sat 20-Aug-22 19:29:39

I will pack my John Lewis thermals Marydoll, do you think a liberty bodice should be worn too?

Marydoll Sat 20-Aug-22 19:24:57

Dear Blossoming, this is what I wear in September, with thermal underwear as well. Remember to bring a hot water bottle or two! wink
Of course an umbrella is de rigueur!

Blossoming Sat 20-Aug-22 19:19:11

I’m not sure if you can really call it a “back” Kittylester grin

Blossoming Sat 20-Aug-22 19:14:26

The very dab Grannynannywanny!

Do you think an ankle chain would finish it off Jaxjacky?

Jaylou Sat 20-Aug-22 18:58:15

It could double up as a scarf for the chilly times.
