Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Hmm. I wonder why the prettiness/comfort scale gets adjusted for each item. You'd think the standards would remain pretty consistent.

For bras, my standards are support, then comfort, then prettiness. I'd like to be able to buy pretty bras, but I've pretty much realized that my choice is either a bra that looks pretty when my shirt is off or a bra that looks good when my shirt is on, and unfortunately, I've got far more use for the latter. For all underwear other than bras, comfort is first, with prettiness also important.

Yeah, those rarely turn out to be the same bra. For the busty among us, at least.

It sounded like the Tyra bra got good reviews around here - anyone remember? I kept meaning to try one out, but laziness, forgetfulness, and cheapness do not a good shopping combination make.

Yes. I have to have an underwire, but I've been wearing them so long, it doesn't even matter. Droopy boobs are neither pretty or comfortable.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Hmm. There was no underwear at my shower, although one friend did give me a copy of the kama sutra. Does that count? Oh and the best gift? A GC to a lovely dayspa.

Nor for the not-so-busty.

That makes me sad. I always look at those pretty little things (um, the bras) in the store and know that I could never wear them, but at least I'd like to think that they bring someone joy. One more illusion dashed to the pavement.

Our wings are not tired

I seem to have stumbled in here in the midst of an interesting discussion.

I tend to wear garters with my fishnets, the thigh highs never stay up.

You don't wear either with the kilts, though? that's a serious faux pas.

I've not worn them with the kilts, though I kinda think that if I was going for enough of a fetish look I might be able to pull off fishnets with the leather kilt.

Well, leather and fishnets is another story altogether.
