I had pulled my hair up in messy, sex-kitten glory and wore a baby blue tank top with a V-neck that almost went to my belly button. The opening was covered in very sheer lace and made wearing a bra utterly pointless.
Я взбила волосы в соблазнительную беспорядочную корону и надела светло-голубую маечку с вырезом, доходящим чуть ли не до пупка и прикрытым лишь шнуровкой, так что лифчик показался бы здесь совершенным излишеством.

But something-an historian’s passion for thoroughness, or maybe sheer love of the chase-compelled me to stick to my plans and go on to Istanbul for a few days.
Однако что-то — быть может, свойственная историкам страсть к педантизму или просто охотничья страсть — толкнуло меня не отказываться от задуманного и провести несколько дней в Стамбуле.
