The corsets I wear (and like they wore back then) are cotton and they didn't do a lot of tight-lacing. I wear a cotton chemise under my corset, too.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I find that if I can steel myself to do it, completely eschewing AC for a couple of days will 'reset' my body thermostat so that I don't feel as hot. However, no can do when I have to spend most of my days in office AC, even if I wanted to.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
office is so cold I am wearing a lightweight wool cardigan.
Lunch is giant salad I made last night: mixed greens, white turnips, radishes, tomatoes, cucumbers, red peppers, carrots, and grilled chicken. It is the yum.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Plus, when your legs are all nicely breezy and ventilated via the airflow created by the hoopskirts, your whole body feels cooler so the corset doesn't bug as much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am thinking desert clothes for the light-yet-fully-covered look might be the best way to negotiate between my warm apartment, the hot outside, and the chilly office. Either that or a hoopskirt.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
