"OK, but where would you wear it to...?".

Jilli wears them to work. A black corset over a white button-down shirt is pretty sedate, actually.

just a fucked up combo of stomach flu, cracked tooth, Wellbutrin, and physical therapy.

Surgery, depression and poverty, baby! I feel ya!

"OK, but where would you wear it to...?".

I know, I know! And I live alone, so to wear it out (and I'm kind of a slutty dresser, so I'd probably wear it to get coffee eventually!) I'd have to tie the string to a doorknob to tie it.

A corset over anything would not be appropriate for my work, I'm afraid. I work with teenagers, no way!

But for going out, yeah. I bought a really wide belt and I love the corsety effect it has.

I think I'll have corsets when I'll have someone in my life who's rich enough to pay for them so I'll just model them. So to speak.

Interesting. But, I don't know - for how long can you wear one? I hate wearing bras for more than 12 hours straight, so corset for a few hours sounds... tricky.

I defer to Jilli on all things corset-y, but I know she's said that a properly fitted custom corset is exceedingly comfortable to wear all day.

A-ha. That makes it #7396 for Things I'll Try When I'll Have The Time And Money For Them.

But I love the pictures. Though I'd go for the black one, from the ones you linked to.

yes, it's true. And it's good for your back! Only tricky bit is sitting, but you just have to perch on the edge of a chair and sit up reaaaally straight. Forces good posture :)

God, whose corset did I wear in LA? Plei's, I think; it was PVC and made of awesome! It sure as heck does make you aware of sitting and standing, though!

Heh. I saw pictures of LA a while back and went "Ooh...the rubber shirt I was wearing under that corset was HOT, I need one of those!"

My corset is apparently getting too big also--my friend laced it shut last night and it wasn't all that tight. Sigh. Which means my custom one is DEFINITELY too big, since it was a little big when I bought that one. But I definitely don't want to buy new ones, they're 'spensive!!!

And dude, a bar called The Wet Spot? I dunno...that's about the least sexy name I can think of.

It's technically the Center for Sex Positive Culture. And it's not a bar--doesn't serve alcohol at all--it's just a sex club. Play space. Place where workshops are held. Dances. Events. Occasional shows. Etc. Etc.

Maybe we should have a corset exchange in Seattle. I'm sure a bunch of us have ones we'd love to trade/sell to a good home.
