Hello fellow mers!
This summer I am going on vacation to Tenerife and I'm bringing my tail. BUT, for this I am in need of a top.
I want good support. I have tried some regular bikinis but they have proved to not work while swimming, as they kind of opens up while swimming..
So now I'm thinking if anyone have a good solution I can make myself with maybe a triangular bikini top that would be great!
Buying something online is out of the question as I live in Norway and the trip is only one month away.
Does anyone have a good idea?

people tend to sew shells e.t.c onto bikini tops. there are a few tutorials on here and on youtube if you want to have a look.
or what size top/bra are you ? - i can make a silicon one for you check out my page on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/merthologycreations/ depending on wether you are a size i have made i can send you a top within a week of payment. i am in uk so postage won't be that long. i make silicone shell tops at £38. if you are interested message me :D41150

If you're still looking for a top, Jolyn is an incredibly reliable company that sells sport bikinis and one pieces designed for surfing/competitive swimming and such. They're not a huge dent in the wallet, but DEFINITELY worth the price. They're made from 100% polyester so they stand up to seawater and chlorine without even the bat of an eye. I've had my suits for 3 years and swam with them in a chlorinated pool EVERY DAY for 2 HOURS (no joke) and they're still like they're brand new.
Here's a link to the tops:

I recommend the vented tops that are TIE-BACK so even if they stretch a little or you want more/less tightness you have plenty of freedom <3
P.S. - all colors have a dark inner lining, so even if you get a light color like white or yellow they won't be see-thru
