Hopefully this rain we've been having eases up. To whet appetites for swimming days ahead, we look at swimwear.
AFFORD #1

For an equally daring alternative on a budget, shoppers can turn to Forever 21 for a selection with designs that are both eye-popping and attention-grabbing.
The black monokini, priced at $39, hugs the silhouette nicely while the frills subtly draw attention to the bustline.
The patterned piece, priced at $33, features bold colours and is definitely for women with spades of confidence.
The monokinis retail at all Forever 21 stores, though stocks are reportedly running low.
